Hurt People

are you shaper by the hits you take?
my pain erased by the joy i find
its not hard, its so so hard
its just effort over time
i feel like being loud and angry is easy
let go become the animal you are
its such a balancing act between
the sane and wildness underneath
hurt people hurt people hurt people hurt people
we are all capable of harm
with the capacity for so much good
its not about what you did
its about what you do
the only thing you can control
is what you do next
show the world through your actions
show em all show your best
hurt people hurt people hurt people hurt people
secure your own mask before assisting others.

The Treadmill
02:30

youre on the treadmill
and you cant get off
youll hit the ground hard
as soon as you stop
your to close to see
the pain your holding too tight
bang your head against the wall
to get to sleep everynight
wounds become wisdom
only if you work on them
the damage only deepens
the longer that you leave it
endless entanglement
that you created yourself
you can stop if you want
you can ask for help
sort the natural needs
from the ugly desires
wounds become wisdom
only if you work on them
the damage only deepens
the longer that you leave it
step off the treadmill

Head in the Bricks

people dont change
if they dont have to
why would you change
in a world thats serving you
you plod along
you yell at the clouds
complain the other people are getting too loud
backed into a corner
repeated rock bottoms
a boot stamps on your face
but only you can stop it
we shuffle on
expect it to change
needs go unmet
we sit silent in pain
if you wanna go forward
you gotta examine the past
understand the whys
to help build a future that lasts
if you wanna stay angry
and scream the sun
look in the mirror
ask who did you wrong?
who did you wrong?
you did you wrong.

you have the hunger to fix this
and we all have to feed
starving kicking screaming
at the piles of unmet needs
you say its just anxiety
i say theres something missing
when i look into the heart of it
all i see are neglected children
maybe its the brain poisoning
that wanting feels better than having
maybe we are just products of greed
broken pieces in a broken machine
between the sedatives and the speed
how are you supposed to feel anything?
depressants on depressants on and on and on
we have the nerve to wonder what went wrong?
you cant run from this forever
youre selling water down by the river.

Grief Song
01:32
|
|||
it was compulsion over love
something more primitive that trust
its the thought of the act
its the chase that you want
i cant wait for you anymore
to become what i know you might be
i cant dream of a life that might
when in reality we are crumbling
my faith as it leaves
it breaks & it heals
its easy to read
the ache it is real
i cant pretend it dosent hurt
to ignore the harm you caused
im giving up on you
and anybody like you
ive wasted my time
thinking theres any good inside
grieving what we could have been
dreaming of reciprocity.

Life After Cigarettes
02:12
|
|||
what does it mean to let go
of the last part of your old self
to abandon who i was
and become who ive always ment to be
i guess its easier to stay
i guess its easier to never change
and some never have to grow up
but i hit the ground so hard i had to stop
is there life after death?
is there life after cigarettes?
who will i be?
who will i be when i stop being who i was?
spent a decade in a feedback loop
comfort in an echo chamber
but now im bare knuckle boxing
everyone feels like a distant stranger
i guess its easier to give in
i guess its easier to let them all win
but you never had to grow up
& i hit the ground so hard i had to stop
is there life after death?
is there life after cigarettes?
who will i be?
who will i be when i stop being who i was?
its such lonely work
but nothing works except the work
and it doesnt make it better
but it doesnt make it worse
and thats enough.

Move Towards Life

the crux of loneliness
the pain of family
the closer you get
the harder it is to love them
you source of frustration
is death by comparison
your cause of unhappiness
is your lack of compassion
grateful is the one who knows
what they can and cant control
who sits with the pain of the world
and lets it overflow and pass
miserable is the rest who love to complain
that this or that should or shouldn't be this or that way
cant stop watching the same tv shows
we're so hooked on our own boring bullshit
grateful is the one who knows
what they can and cant control
who sits with the pain of the world
and lets it overflow and pass
let go a little bit
try live everyday
more closer
release the stress in your neck
and more towards life.

Bad Comedy

bad comedy
you pass it off as poetry
thats such a longwinded way
to say not much at all
tiptoe around the point
youre never saying anything
you think that its softness
i think that you lost it
but at the end of the day ill sleep alright
knowing you have to be you
for the rest of your life
be careful when people clap
it will rot your brain
it will make you bad
be careful when theres applause
it will make you sick
poison to your core
hands turn blue
from sitting still
its your own weight
move or it stays the same
but at the end of the day ill sleep alright
knowing you have to be you
for the rest of your life
i love you but youre letting everyone down
when are you gunna prove us wrong?

Thirty Centimeters
01:44

i miss you
falling asleep on me
you head on my chest
we're on top of the sheets
i miss you
the way you would
hug and hold me
my head in your shoulder
as i breathe you in
something happens
in our bodies
each time we are close
thirty centimeters
gravity pulls
drags us to where they want to go
dont let go of me
please I cant keep losing you.

Let It End With Me.
02:46
|
|||
world in decline
we dont address the source
so you designed
a so called chemical cure
to pacify
keep us right where we are
no one lives no one dies
living dead sprawl
inhabit the earth
i dont wanna manage my symptoms
i wanna cut to the core
you wanna dress the wound
i wanna destroy knives cut the source
stop spiralling
into oblivion
pull yourself back
from the void
unhook from your
self created feed back loop
use you pain for more than wallowing
let it end here with me
it ends here with me
deceased, deceased
youre dead to me
youre dead it seams
let it end with me
it ends with me.
