YOUTH PRISON
You've been digging friends graves for your whole life
One gunshot can change so much if you think about it
My mother never cooked, I got dealt a bad hand
And to see all these happy families-it's a killer
To see what i should have had
To see what we should have had
It's not that you're too stubborn to change you just know that the whole world never will
Youth prison/given no room to grow up
Youth prison/a new invention
Youth prison/writing lives away
It's not right
It's not right
Youth prison/given no room to grow up
Youth prison/a new invention
Youth prison/writing lives away
It's not right
I've met kids who should have had the chance
Convicted to a prison since age 13
Child prisoners need counseling, not bars
Counseling not bars

SKELETONS
I'm a liar and you can read the lines on my face like an open book
(reluctantly I turn to my audience with the largest sigh)
I'm a liar and you can read the lines on my face are an open book
(yup, here we are)
I lie, I'm a liar and you can read the lines on my face like a book
I lie, I'm a liar and you've deserved better yet here we are
My skeletons are in your closet and your shirts are in mine
My skeletons are in your closet and your shirts are in mine
I lie, I'm a liar and you can read the lines on my face like a book
I've tried, But I'll try harder, and I'll keep fucking trying til the day that I die

COLD HANDS, COLD HEARTS
Blatant lies
Oh, you're such a nice guy
You laugh the days away since you know all the right tricks
Your snide, your smug
Shell of a robot, son of the sexist
You're money
You're heinous
I could tell you the things you are but clearer are the things that you are not
You are just a liar
I recount the million things I wish I'd said
Out of all the things I wish I'd said, I wish I told you all how much I wished you were dead
I'm not angry, I'm just dis-gu-sted
You watched as 5 years, 10 years, 22 years drifted from my grasp while you let me lay there
Where were you?
I was reaching out to cold hands, cold hearts
The friends I'd known for so long were nothing more than shadows
Your not honest
Ha, your no virgin
Your not the diplomat you pretend to be
You make me sick
YOU MAKE ME SICK
Shell of the robot, son of a Catholic
The biggest regret of my life is the five years I spent on you

BLANK PAGE
You have a great old wealth, a treasure chest sort of mind
It's all kept under strict lock and key
I want to dig out the memories
A sad laugh swallows up the room
Cheering on, jeers at nurses
Thick guarded walls and all faces down
Face to the ground
After a whole lifetime there's another life to live
Asking the same questions
Preservation of basic human nature
Grasping to conversation
Grasping to conversation
You are no science experiment
You are no old bat
The mysteries of language and the blank page
"my mind has gone"
Grasping to conversation
Grasping to conversation
You can achieve a new balance
I will walk you there
I will walk you to a safe place
I will walk you there

HUMAN TOUCH
What do I want you to feel? something
I want you to love, really love something
I want you to feel it so deep that the heaviness reaches your hands... into your heart
What do I want you to feel? something
I want you to hate, really hate something
I want you to feel it in your eyes when your face flashes to red
Because without intentions these actions are fucking meaningless
Without the human touch this world don't mean nothing
What do I want you to say? something
I want you to find something and then say it
I want the words to crawl, seep, spill out of every pore and I never want it to stop
Because without interactions, these actions are meaningless
Without the human touch this world don't mean nothing
nooooo... (NO racism. NO sexism. NO classism. NO bullshit. NO laziness. NO wasting your life away on the internet or in front of a TV set. NO turning down invitations because you are feeling sorry for yourself. NO bullies. NO self medicating with alcohol, meaningless sex, etc. NO getting married or having children just because you don't know what else you're supposed to do. NO spending your hard earned $$$'s at wasteful corporations that you know suck and are ruining everything about everything. YOU are better than that. You are better than all that)
Tell me you're human
Show me you're human
Show me you're human
Show me your here with me
Human touch
