Ignore the torture
You promised it'd be worth it
Tormented to exhaustion
Left demented and derranged
I'm crazy all because you made me this way
Backs against the wall
Clutch cylinders to death
Don't worry 'bout the rest.
You've been sitting on your high horse,
The captain of a sinking vessle that's leaky and porous
Yet never straying course
You've been throwing your pennies to paupers
Absolving all your sins,
Yet you beg and plead for savior
You've sunken much deeper
Now who's the fuckin' man?
Tired of finding time to bail you out
Just hear me out
Pray for self destruction
Wait for the imminent collapse

Maybe, Just Maybe

It's not that I don't want to
It's just that I can't hold my head up high
Try to stand up tall
Better off left in the dark at the bottom of empty bottles
I don't want to feel more connected
I am too ashamed
I don't want to bring you closer
Because we will end up the same
We'll take the blame again
Do as you please and maybe, just maybe you'll change
Set in stone in all your toxic ways
Maybe, just maybe you'll change
It's kind of hard to change your ways
When every bottle tastes the same
I know you won't
I know you can't
Don't hold your breath.

Drink Faster

We ran with wolves
Stomachs never full
But we'll make due
Arrows barley true
Engorge yourself till there's nothing else
Blood fist fueled till we take rule
While your cup has been overflowing
You'll reap what you've been sewing you bastard
With no idea where you've been going
Drink faster.
This is the path that you have chosen through motion
And I'm just here to watch it burn
Hey man, this never had to be so hard
You notice this shouldn't be a cause for alarm
And you've been running out of friends,
And barley making ends with your filthy fuckin' hands
You bastard.
Drink faster.

Save Your Sorrow
02:35

Ignoring the warning wasn't very wise
We stuck it out and turned a blind eye
Avoiding all the signs.
We both had our own intentions then,
But at least I can admit that yours were better than mine
You never had to pay the price
Already let you fool me twice
Prepare yourself, the storm is coming
And you'd hate to feel alone
It's only remotely disturbing
The tides are turning
Your shifting position does much more than raise an eye
It's only disturbing
It does more more than raise an eye
Ignoring the warning brought on the demise
Now I see clear
I've wizened up
I've had enough
Save your sorrow
There's no tomorrow
You could quicken up your pace
Trying to clean up the mess you've made but
The time is runnin' out.

Anywhere But Here

Yearning for a change in scenery
But this place has me under control
Patience has been wearing thinner
Hung the jury
No saints, just sinners
Strike down your oppressor
They'll rot and they'll fester
It's better them than me
Stray away again
It's getting harder
We're getting further from the end
Stay away
The ends are frayed
These ties were cut with a knife
Safe to say motives lacked
Only spite
And night by night
Your gut tells you something's not right
And day by day
Waste your life away
Choosing to lay down your arms
And give up the fight
Or drive on
There's nothing more to fear
But can you keep your conscious clear?
Flee from the guilty, nothing will set them free.
