Pleaser 04:40
I spent my mornings drenched in sweat Then I'd get lost in pools of it I caught a glimpse from the outside Of what distorted in my mind And no, I can't stop thinking about it And no, I can't stop thinking about it, oh I threw myself at every objective But failed to see the other perspectives, oh And I gotta say I'm not surprised That a dented reputation kept me preoccupied And no matter how damn hard I try I can safely say I can't get everybody on my side I guess I'll just shut up this time I spent my afternoons in bed Perfectionism now dormant I followed paths and cut through vines But felt so lost when I found light And no, I can't stop thinking about it And no, I can't stop thinking about it, oh Are all my efforts now to be questioned When my high standards started regressing, oh And I gotta say I'm not surprised That I exhausted myself by being quick to comply And no matter how damn hard I try I can safely say I can't get everybody on my side And so I'll just shut up this time Ba da da ba da da ba ba Ba da da ba da da ba ba Ba da da ba da da ba ba Ba da da ba da da ba ba And I gotta say I'm not surprised That a dented reputation keeps me preoccupied And no matter how damn hard I try I can safely say I can't get everyone on my side Gotta say I'm not surprised I brushed off parts of me And I gotta say I'm not surprised I let myself get in the way And so I'll just shut up this time

Like You 05:09
It's the same thing over and over again For a band of brothers, I hardly see us as friends Do you even give a shit Oh, do you even give a shit Do I go fetch or throw it back to you Do I try to cure the cancer or feed you what you spew Do you even give a shit Oh, do you even give a shit You don't even have to take your aim Just grab the gun and fire away You don't even have to read the stars If the sign to run is where you are If you had the chance to read my mind When you find your carcass would you be surprised A fingerprinted impact oh so cruel I'd rather break my spine in a kiddie pool Than become a little more like you A little more like you Thankful for repetition that gets so stale A more efficient mob means more anthrax gets mailed Am I so wrong to give a shit Am I so wrong to give a shit And it's not like one target's seen No, the scope is extensive, unlike your empathy Am I so wrong to give a shit Oh, do you even give a shit You don't even have to take your aim Just grab the gun and fire away You don't even have to read the stars If the sign to run is where you are If you had the chance to read my mind When you find your carcass would you be surprised A fingerprinted impact oh so cruel I'd rather break my spine in a kiddie pool Than become a little more like you Like you Like you You, you, you, you, you You don't even have to take your aim Just grab the gun and fire away You don't even have to read the stars If the sign to run is where you are If you had the chance to read my mind When you find your carcass would you be surprised A fingerprinted impact oh so cruel But if I say a word the crowd starts to boo I reject respect for being cool But can you smell the poison that you brew I'd rather break my spine in a kiddie pool Than become a little more like you I'd rather break my spine in a kiddie pool Than become a little more like you A little more like you

Sick of Me

Turnaround 03:49
Traces of euphoria With contact staying passive Pleasantly devoid of warning signs Warm like spring in Florida And ten times more attractive Nowhere else I wanna be tonight I wondered if the world was going blind When you were stag, but nowhere out of sight I thought I'd be an idiot to never make you mine Months of bliss are foreign but I'm willing to attempt it I never thought I'd see a cloudless sky I'll make what's not good enough A fragment of a sentence The upswing forms a visible divide I wondered if the world was going blind When you were stag but nowhere out of sight I thought I'd be an idiot to never make you mine Trying to maintain tranquility Is easier than it sounds The suspicion of stability Extended through the ground It's surreal but always wonderful To feel the turnaround And it's here I've got no doubt I wondered if the world was going blind When you were stag but nowhere out of sight I thought I'd be an idiot to never make you mine No, no, no

Nothing 02:47
I searched for cavities But my entire body's a hole In times of clarity I shrugged off bits of all that I know I melt like icicles A perfect volume to fit the mold I find it difficult To repossess the skin I've outgrown And I feel like nothing Concern abandoned me And mainly when I needed to care I won the lottery And never became a billionaire I am the car I drive I'm overused and under-repaired Indulged and now deprived The house went up in flames as I stared And I feel like nothing Wounded in the open Bleeding gives me motion Otherwise I'm hoping To just stay still I dragged along my corpse My imprint is a suspicious trail I never felt remorse And accepted a sentence in jail I sometimes get the urge To change direction when I'm ahead Backtrack to feel secure Progress and regression repeated And I feel like nothing Wounded in the open Bleeding gives me motion Otherwise I'm hoping To just stay still Settling for no plans Sinking into quicksand Seems the only choice is To just stay still
