Won't Bite
05:44
|

Come along, come along, come along please
Sing a song, sing a song, sing a song for me
Make it happy, make it sad, make it what I need
Talking heads, talking heads, talking quietly
Talking trouble, thinking trouble, little subtleties
Trying to buy me in, make me see what they believe
But I won’t bite
Getting tired, getting tired of all this noise I hear
It’s not the news, it’s not the news, it’s just what people fear
Every day, every day and it’s never ending
Keeping up, keeping up with the Joneses*
You bought some things, you bought some things, you’re truly talented
Fill it up, fill it up, you’ll never know what “it” is
But I won’t bite
But I won’t bite
Bought and sold, bought and sold and you’re proud of it
Show your face, show your face, amplify your wins
You could change, you could change, for the highest bid
Something’s wrong, something’s up, but it’s hard to tell
Something corrupt, branding what, branding what they sell
They’d paint the sky and tell ya, “All is well.”
But I won’t bite
But I won’t bite, no
I won’t
Oh, I won’t
No, I won’t
No, I
I, I won’t
No, I won’t, I won’t
I won’t bite
I, I won’t, I won’t
I won’t bite
I, I won’t I won’t
I won’t bite
I won’t bite

That Hype
06:38
|
|||
They never asked me, if I wanted any
It was handed to me, so I had to drink
They never waited to, hear a “yes” or “no”
If I wanted in, or if I could commit
And so I drank it down, I bought every word
With every drop a story, so many it hurt
Delivered like a prize, as if I needed all that, as if I needed all that hype, I better tell ya
That ain’t gonna work, gonna work for me now
That ain’t gonna work, gonna work for me now
I don’t know when, it all just stopped
I couldn’t tell you how we got here, no
I don’t know when it all just stopped
I couldn’t tell you how we…
Don’t know when it all just stopped
I couldn’t tell you, couldn’t tell you how
I don’t know when it all just stopped
I couldn’t tell you how
The opposition knows, it’s getting obvious
Guilty conscience on hand, some inexperience
Exemptions left and right, and with such attitude
A martyr for today, breaking backs for you
But it’s harder to tell when you’re on the losing side
When the game is over, when it’s concession time
With a coup the doves are calling for your head, but
I thought you needed all that hype, I thought I said it
That ain’t gonna work for me now
That ain’t gonna work for me now
I don’t know when, it all just stopped
I couldn’t tell you how we got here, no
I don’t know when it all just stopped
I couldn’t tell you how we got here, no
Don’t know when it all just stopped
I couldn’t tell you, couldn’t tell you how
I don’t know when it all just stopped
I couldn’t tell you how

Nobody Cares
04:06
|

Nobody cares, nobody will care
Nobody sees, nobody will see
Nobody knows the state that I’ve been living in
That I’m the only one, alone, nobody knows but me
No one knows but me, but who cares
I don’t want your help, I just want your sympathy
Not everything that happens needs your reaction immediately
They say when you hurt, we hurt, I hurt too, so does everyone
Or is that some rhetoric I’ve heard?
Maybe, it’s possible, yeah it’s possible, but who cares
I’m having a pity party and it’s, it’s all about me
It’s, It’s all about me, It’s, it’s all about me
I think you’ll like it, why don’t you come and see?
Yeah why don’t you come and see?
Said, why don’t you come and see?
‘Cause don’t want to take, but lately that’s all I do
Working the room for it’s empathy, I won’t stop until I’m full
Maybe I’m not everything, I’m not everything you thought I was
I let your expectations down, yeah, all because
Yeah it’s all because
I don’t care
I’m having a pity party and it’s, it’s all about me, yeah
It’s all about me, It’s-it’s all about me
I think you’ll like it, so why don’t you come and see?
Said, why don’t you come and see?
Said, why don’t you come and see?

Treat Me Like
04:12
|
|||
I don’t know why I can’t come by
A decent line, at the perfect time
I didn’t think through the things that I said
They didn’t fit the things you did
I can’t see you, what will it lead to?
When I say, I’m on my way down?
You treat me, you treat me like I’m one
One of those people who don’t belong
You treat me, you treat me like I’ve done
Damage on you, damage on you at every turn
I can’t complain when it’s me that’s shifted
It’s in my head, every dumb regret
And man, it cost me, yeah, cost me my mind
I laid awake, I stayed inside
I can’t see you, what will it lead to?
When I say, I’m on my way down?
You treat me, treat me like I’m one
One of those people who don’t belong
You treat me, you treat me like I’ve done
Damage on you, damage on you at every turn
Oh, you’re too, too good for me
I don’t deserve it, I don’t deserve anything
I’d come and tell you sarcastically, but I don’t have the nerve
Oh, you’re too, too good for me
I don’t deserve it, I don’t deserve anything
I’d come and tell you sarcastically, oh, but I don’t have the nerve
Ohhh Ahhh
You treat me, you treat me like I’m one
One of those people who don’t belong
You treat me, you treat me like I’ve done
Damage on you, damage on you at every turn

The Loop
03:20
|
|||
Trust me, I’ve got the, the same old layers on
Time, it cuts out when I’m gone
Been living in moments, a moment’s all I have
It cuts out, each minute
just when I think I have it
Time runs out
I’m in the loop again
Time runs out
You can’t reach me now
I’m in the loop again
You can’t leave me now
Impression’s I’m getting, is that I’m feeling lost
They’re talking in circles, I don’t know where it stops
My mind it, it left me, I don’t know where it’s gone
I focus on something, however right or wrong it is
Time runs out
I’m in the loop again
Time runs out
You can’t reach me now
I’m in the loop again
You can’t leave me now
I’m in the loop again

Whiskey Bones
05:10
|
|||
Body’s tired, head is fried
A sudden bought of sickness, hold it in, a near miss
Busy all the while
Holding down the bile
Burning all around, feeling better, slowing down
Grateful for my pillow and I appreciate the window, but itching for something else
A remedy to fix my body when it can’t
It can’t fix it’s self
Drink in hand, nothing better, nothing plain
Fixing in my bloodstream, regulate my heartbeat
Make me feel the same, running wild in my veins
One more time, pour ‘em heavy, hold ‘em high
I got calm, got collected, predictably happy when I finally feel the shot hit
I’m counting up to number seven, gonna put it in my pocket, yeah
Whiskey bones, making trouble, taking blows
Picking fights with stones now, throw ‘em through the window
Make ‘em scream your name
Make sure they know what this is
Hands alive, the motion’s fine
Feeling pretty slick now, I…
I think I’ll bring my past out, feeding it on the wires
Slinging heavy cries

Couldn't Say
05:04
|
|||
Creep in the door wait for someone to notice
Hang on the wall, just to see if it’s focused
I can’t see past what’s really important
Follow me down, I’m taking you there
Finally mentioned the thing you were hoping
I’d help you shortcut your way to the floor
Blacked out and mostly gone to the world
Hang on a second, it’s all that you thought
Stupid to think so, don’t stop to tell me
I should have read better, seen what they saw
On the outside, where earshot goes further
They’re burning me still with their hindsight and all
Burning me still with their hindsight and all
I went home to play the enemy
I never thought I’d see the day
Intervening forces reckon it suits me
And that’s the saddest thing
I never thought I’d like it so much
To see such suffering, but…
Provocation… provocation made me, is that wrong?
I couldn’t say
Is that wrong? I couldn’t say
Is that wrong? I couldn’t say
I couldn’t say
Mood reading one way, words there to cover
Contempt etched on every line of your face
Taking comfort knowing no one else matters
Guiltless enough, still you take and you take
It’s been a long time since someone sat you down
Told you words that you heard and took in
Words that weren’t just there to flatter
Inflated self-worth, vein enough as it is, so…
Was there something you came here to say?
Time spent looking after yourself
Depleting feelings, leaving things uncompleted
Had me reeling, didn’t know, know what I felt
Had me reeling, didn’t know what I felt
I went home to play the enemy and
I never thought I’d see the day
Intervening forces reckon it suits me
And that’s the saddest thing
I never thought I’d like it so much
To see such suffering, but…
Provocation… provocation made me, is that wrong?
I couldn’t say
Is that wrong? I couldn’t say
Is that wrong? I couldn’t say
I couldn’t say
I went home to play the enemy and
I never thought I’d see the day
Intervening forces reckon it suits me
And that’s the saddest thing
I never thought I’d like it so much
To see such suffering, but…
Provocation… provocation made me, is that wrong?
I couldn’t say
Is that wrong? I couldn’t say
Is that wrong? I couldn’t say
I couldn’t say

Death
04:02
|
|||
Under the wire in time for departure
Endless days that are making it harder
Repetitious lines keep calling me on…
But it’s nothing less than death, death, death
At 8 a.m.
Nothing less than death, death, death
At 8 a.m.
Crying for food, for rest, for a pay raise
I’m under this face, I’m a person too, can’t you see me?
Oh sure, some of it’s great every now and then
But most of it’s just death, death, death
At 8 a.m.
Nothing less than death, death, death
At 8 a.m.
Change in my pocket whenever I needed
Songs in my head all day and no way to bleed them
The hours are crooked and it’s nothing less, nothing less than you’d expect from
Death, death, death
At 8 a.m.
Nothing less than death, death, death
At 8 a.m.
