FORGET ENGLISH
Our poor screaming red hands.
We get dumb and ugly so fast.
We tell the only joke we know, and we never don't laugh.
No slack, no slack and no faith.
No sleep, no bed, no slack, no faith.
Oh, and don't complain.
The fluid leaking out your nose might as well be new, new black.
Get good at something awful, and get okay.
Get okay with it fast.
No slack, no slack and no faith.
No slack and no faith.
No sleep, no bed, no slack, no faith.
Oh, and don't complain.
Does it look bad?
Big black hammers from the sky.
Big black anvils under everything.
You, me, everything.
You, me, everything.

DIVORCE DRUGS
How can I say this so you'll take my side?
There's no "I" in fucking melodrama.
I'll say it once, in an everyday voice.
You can't touch her.
Don't make a mess that you can't clean up.
You can't touch her.
You can't touch her.
You can't touch her.
That's why it's called, that's why it's called, that's why we call it the past.
You, you make it sound like the end of the world.
I make it sound like the end of the smallest world ever.

COMMON DOGS
We've paid our debt, and you've lost your claws.
Now you're just, now you're just a flavor I don't need.
But woah, there's that smile.
A fat whining dog.
Point it at, point it at, someone else's head.
Ask me.
Ask me how I know this.
We're under the bus.
And you're on a roll.
You know our names, know our names, they don't rhyme with meat.
But don't ask surprised, when you're called a wolf.
In common dogs, in common dogs, we focus on the teeth.
Ask me.
Ask me how I know this.
These stairs run forever.
These stairs run forever.
These stairs don't go anywhere.
I said ask me how I know this.
I know it wears you out.
Fire is inspirational.
Ask me how I know this.
Fire is inspirational.

PYRAMID
I admit it, you've done better than me.
I admit it, you've built higher than me.
Standing on broken backs and shattered knees, you've built a bigger pyramid than me.
But now there's nowhere to go.
When I say the word, we rattle the earth.
When I say the word, we scatter the dust.
When I say the word, we rattle the earth.
When I say the word, we scatter the dust.
But now there's nowhere to go.
But now there's nowhere to go, you devil.
Nowhere but down.
If you can hear this noise, it'll be to late.
If you can hear this noise, It's already to late.
When I say the word, we rattle the earth.
When I say the word, we scatter the dust.
When I say the word, we rattle the earth.
When I say the word, we scatter the dust.
When I say the word, it'll be too late.
When I say the word, your pyramid sinks.
You had your way.
And now it's way too late.
It's already too late.

LEAVERS
What moves the world?
They'll make a smaller one next year.
Stacking bad ideas against bricks that fit in your ears.
There's one for every window, turn them into walls 'till you can't say a single word with out smacking your head.
Make them listen, make them understand.
What moves the world?
In a double a rhyme scheme if you like a nice neat stack of metaphors, which I don't
I hope they rot right off the sides of my head.
With big enough problems you can move the world.
Hey genius smile, you're part of it now.
Hey genius speak, how the new sound?
Found a big enough lever now.
Leave.
