Vocation 05:42
There is no relaxing for me Doubt you'd like to hear the story It's not something that makes much sense to me Every moment feels like morning When you're holding onto some kind of complex glory Don't you just wish you could dissolve from here? There is no such thing as healthy There is no such thing as wealthy There is just no time for things my dear I cannot believe in deadlines And I cannot believe that it's fine I cannot commit to life in fear There is no redemption for me You know I chased away that pony It's funny that you thought it suits me, dear But I am of my own vocation Cuz I live in my own damn nation Borderless to your love all the year You had me at what's going on You lost me at this is wrong There is no relaxing for me Doubt you'd like to hear the story It's not something that makes much sense to me Every moment feels like morning When you're holding onto some kind of complex glory Don't you just wish you could dissolve from here?

I swear every single thing you say to me You whisper in my ear And all I could ever seem to take way You want to disappear Hey babe, take a little look at your city now It's bitch versus beast You might never be seen for what you are But could you smile at least? Will you watch it wash away? Every little thing you're holding there to your heart Will you watch it wash away? I'm sure every little hand that you dealt to me Was shuffled real well And all I could ever seem to think to do Is just to give you hell Hey babe, take a little look at your shoulders yeah You're taking on the world And all just so you don't have to feel so small You little boys and girls And now you watch it wash away Every little thing you're clutching desperately girl Now you watch it wash away

Them 07:23
Sweetly tucked way in your pocket Stealing secrets from for your locket Now the furniture's taking numbers Oh what can it mean Oh I wonder! I could never want to be happy If it meant to take form eternally On your wedding day, on your deathbed Remember how you love living life instead So whatcha gonna do with it? Whatcha gonna do with Them? Kindly crush the day of its juices Cut the pulp away such a nuisance Now the horse stable's crying fowl Such an insult to all the owls They could never want to be happy If it meant to live at the foot of thee As you kiss the breeze, as you graduate As you pen the book in flesh and fate So whathca gonna do with it? Whatcha gonna do with Them? Whatcha gonna do it for? There ain't no kings or queens no more...

Where Is It 05:28
And you want it all And you know it all Yeah, you know it all So where is it?

I could be the thing you need But I am the comedy I could free you from your greed But I am the comedy Am I really only what you see? Am I really what you make of me? I could break your fall from grace But I am the comedy I could give you a new face But I am the comedy Is this all you really want to see? Is this all you really want to be? I could be the light deep in the night When you're reaching for your shelf Or I could be the hole left in your bowl When you're crying out for health Oh I could be the one to dim the sun If that's what you want to see Or I could be alone

Muzzle TF 06:31
I once knew everything Without a shred of doubt There was nothing that I could not let out And oh what the summers did bring A heart that could never run dry And a future that belonged to you and I Tell me now when did it change? I know that I can't stay the same When every day is a new day I once had everything Being lifted into sky And I never had to watch them all die Bliss is your right when you win Making footprints colored red As I walk like I honor the dead Tell me now where it went wrong Still not where we belong Desperately holding onto the bomb Muzzle the future no more Winners write the rule books And then write all our history Rapists being rewarded For contextual thievery And thank the gods almighty For this age of golden cage Go hide in your casino From all the rage
