Warp your mind, escape your mindset X10
Money, prestige, feelings
We all could do without
All Opinions reeling
One real muted shout
Clicks and likes aren’t calling
Influence in some doubt
Followers are fleeing
You lost your fucking clout
Warp your mind, escape your mindset X10
Money, prestige, feelings
We all could do without
All Opinions reeling
One real muted shout
Clicks and likes aren’t calling
Influence in some doubt
Followers are fleeing
You lost your fucking clout
You lost your fucking clout x 3
You got no fucking clout x 8
Money, prestige, feelings
We all could do without
All Opinions reeling
One real muted shout
Clicks and likes aren’t calling
Influence in some doubt
Followers are fleeing
You lost your fucking clout
You lost your fucking clout x 3
You got no fucking clout x 8

Blackout My Heart Like On Local TV
Try and tell me you won’t forget
All those moments that have passed
I know that was a long time ago
Sure it’s in the rear view mirror
But it couldn’t be any clearer
We only stopped because you said so
I guess I’m holding on to hard
The Memories of our stupid fun
Cause I know we’ll never have a tomorrow
we’ll never ever have a tomorrow
(Chorus)
Black out my heart
Like on local TV
You’re not buying what I’m selling
Have to be there to see
I wanna Black out my heart
Like on local TV
You’re not buying what I’m selling
Have to be there to see
The past for me is hard to shake
The beers, the naps, the parkades
But it’ll never end the way I want it to
It’ll always be on my mind
The acceptance is all just fine
That I think about you a time or two.
I hope your glasses are tinted rose
And your smile is a mile wide
When you remember things as fondly as I do
remember things as fondly as I do
(Chorus)
Black out my heart
Like on local TV
You’re not buying what I’m selling
Have to be there to see
I wanna black out my heart
Like on local TV
You’re not buying what I’m selling
Have to be there to see

Nobody Cares
00:43
|

Don’t tell me your astrology sign
Or how you’re never gonna eat swine
Your yoga routine, your favourite poutine
Your crystal healing, or gender revealing
Your thoughts and prayers… your torrid affairs
It’s time you realize… that nobody cares
NO BODY CARES
NO BODY CARES
Your weekend plot line,
Your treadmill incline
Vitamins you take,
Relationships you make.
Outfits you bought
Dreams that you sought
Favourite life quotes
How your dad votes
Your at work drama
Your love for Nirvana
You dyed your hair pink
Wonder what your boyfriend thinks???
NOBODY GIVES A SHIT!!!!

I’m scared…
I’m frightened…
Please understand…
Failing right in front of your eyes
was never in the plans
But here we are
The lessons I taught
Fall on deaf ears
‘cause I’m full of rot
I wish I could explain it all
to you
I’m bitter…
I’m miserable…
Can’t let it show…
I want to be so much better
But it’s time for me to go
Let’s sum it up
You ask the question
My mouth is shut
Taped with depression
I wish I could explain it all
to you
Why oh why does everyone have to die?
I don’t know why. I don’t know why.
Why oh why does everyone have to die?
I don’t know why. I don’t know why.
I’m sad…
I’m lonely…
The first to show…
I have no clue what I’m doing
And I’m the last to know
I read the books
Took all the sessions
Did what I was told
But I’m still stressing
I wish I could explain it all
to you
I’m guilty…
I’m nervous…
For you to see…
All of this is a front,
None of it is the real me
Keep on the mask
Stick with the message
Paint a brave face
Bury the baggage
I wish I could explain it all
to you
Why oh why does everyone have to die?
I don’t know why. I don’t know why.
Why oh why does everyone have to die?
I don’t know why. I don’t know why.
Why does everyone have to
Why does everyone have to
Why does everyone have to
Why does everyone have to… die

Never Gonna Happen
03:31
|
|||
Oh today,
What are we doing with today?
It’s time for dreams to happen,
Or shall we let them fade away?
Now we’re hanging on a thread,
Connected to the things we dread.
I want it all for us, but it’s never gonna happen.
Start all over but instead,
We keep repeating till we’re dead.
I want it all for us, but it’s never gonna happen.
Maybe tomorrow,
You know I’m not coming through.
With all the promises,
Realize none of it is true
Stop to think,
When you say that it’s ok.
You’re kidding yourself,
So why the hell would you stay?
Now we’re hanging on a thread,
Connected to the things we dread.
I want it all for us, but it’s never gonna happen.
Start all over but instead,
We keep repeating till we’re dead.
I want it all for us, but it’s never gonna happen.
Till next week,
Hopefully when things are different
And lip service
Is not our only investment
Bow your head,
And bury it in the sand.
When we come up for air,
Maybe then we’ll have a plan
Now we’re hanging on a thread,
Connected to the things we dread.
I want it all for us, but it’s never gonna happen.
Start all over but instead,
We keep repeating till we’re dead.
I want it all for us, but it’s never gonna happen.

No Return Policy
02:56
|

Events determine points of view
Points of view determine politics
When we decided to start this new
It created an unrequited friendship
I have strong feelings towards you
And they probably shouldn’t be returned
It’s not about who’s right or wrong
It’s knowing one of us will just get burned
Seeing things to you seem different
And it’s not a good take for either side
Like a killer looking at you through the window
All we should do is run and hide
I have strong feelings towards you
And they probably shouldn’t be returned
It’s not about who’s right or wrong
It’s knowing one of us will get burned
There’s no need to act upon this
And we might as well lock it in the vault
Nothing you did to create this
No point in saying it someone’s fault

Rage Is a perfectly valid response
I’m primed to be enlightened
With your high velocity splatter
Cause your ridiculous opinions
Should never fucking matter.
I’m primed to be disgusted
By your controversial words
The vitriol you spew.
Should never be fucking heard.
Sure there’s people dying as I write this stupid song
Hopefully it’s you, cause we’d all like to move on.
Rage Is a perfectly valid response
I’m primed to be educated
With your pointless ignorant thoughts
As I smashed your fucking teeth in
And watch your smile rot.
I’m primed to be repulsed
By your brains all over the floor
It’s a situation you created.
Cause your hate speech is a bore.
Sure there’s people dying as I write this stupid song
Hopefully it’s you, cause we’d all like to move on.
Rage Is a perfectly valid response
I’m primed to get a lesson
From someone who’s legend’s stained
Then I’ll light the paint-soaked rag up
And torch your body with flames.
I’m primed to get real nauseous
By your hate for everyone
I puke on your caustic comments.
And choke cause you’re under done.
Sure there’s people dying as I write this stupid song
Hopefully it’s you, cause we’d all like to move on.
Rage Is a perfectly valid response

Heaven

Oh, thinkin' about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothing can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me comin' back for more
Baby, you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
Isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven
Oh, once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you're feelin' down
Yeah, nothing could change what you mean to me
Oh, there's lots that I could say
But just hold me now
'Cause our love will light the way
And baby, you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven
Yeah, love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven, yeah
I've been waitin' for so long
For somethin' to arrive
For love to come along
Now our dreams are comin' true
Through the good times and the bad
Yeah, I'll be standin' there by you,
And baby, you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
Isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven,
You're all that I want
You're all that I need
You're all that I want
You're all that I need
You're all that I want
You're all that I need
You're all that I want
You're all that I need

Speaking of Cults
02:52

United, for a single cause
No questions, our word is law
It’s us verse them, more of you should follow
Want new members, an easy pill to swallow.
(Wait a minute, are we in a cult?)
A seedy motel and a case of beer
12 passenger van, the venue is near.
Rob’s got pocket acid,
We should probably steer clear.
On our way, to suppress some doubt.
Hit up another town, so we can scream and shout.
(Holy shit man, we’re actually in a cult)
It’s not strange, we really believe.
Nothing sinister in what we achieve
Next morning’s a blur, feels like I got punched.
Probably doesn’t help, I had 3 Caesars for lunch.
One more and the bill please…
Cause we’re actually in a crunch.
Hotel house coats to start the fun.
The acid’s kicking in, Rob’s speaking in tongues.
(Speaking of cults… I think we’re in one)
How we gettin’ home, don’t wanna see the sun
Please book an Uber driver for quarter to one.
Then where are we going???
JOIN OUR CULT
JOIN OUR CULT
JOIN OUR CULT
JOIN OUR CULT
United, for a single cause
No questions, our word is law
It’s us verse them, more of you should follow
Want new members, an easy pill to swallow.
SPEAKING OF CULTS. I THINK I’M IN ONE!
SPEAKING OF CULTS. I THINK I’M IN ONE!
SPEAKING OF CULTS. I THINK I’M IN ONE!

I thought it out… couldn’t prove it
Hold on too long… tend to lose it
I wish someone had told me it was time to move
Was holding out… for the better
Didn’t see that you were tethered
Guess cutting the cord was the right thing to do
Debating the right… answers x2
The problem is… no one sees me
I push hard… so you perceive me
To be happier, than I… really am
Now it’s gone… it doesn’t matter
Found or lost… probably the latter
I’ll never find the answer or a leg to stand
Debating the right… answers x2
Breakdown
Debating the right… answers x4

Basic Nudes
02:25
|
|||
Discount booze and dollar store weed
Whatever you got I just need.
To take a break from this miserable life
Escape from the world I see.
I’m so scared of dying
But not being put in the ground.
It’s the fear of your after thoughts,
The one’s that’ll have you frown.
Chorus
I tried to drown my demons,
But my demons learned to swim.
WHOOOAA
Hard to Drown Your Sorrow,
When life’s preserved with sin.
WHOOOAA. WHOOOAA.
Bargain smokes and a Basic Nude
Put them in me, don’t be rude
We’ll forget about those better times
And cheers to a shit attitude
I’m so scared of lying,
That I don’t think of death all the time.
It’s the fear of not being here,
I can’t get it off of my mind.
Chorus
I tried to drown my demons,
But my demons learned to swim.
WHOOOAA
Hard to Drown Your Sorrow,
When life’s preserved with sin.
WHOOOAA. WHOOOAA.

Four Floaters
02:35

This is all so one sided
Everything that I provided
And nothing in return
Except for this sting
Making sure that everyone
Has everything under the sun
And nothing in return
Cause all you ever bring
Four Floaters in a Safeway Bag
I would love to make a wager
You’ll soak up my good nature
And nothing in return
So plain to see
I’m the one that you rely on
to be the shoulder that you cry on
And nothing in return
Cause all you ever brought to me… is…
Four Floaters in a Safeway Bag
Sip it
Nurse it
Slow to taste it…
There’s not enough for you to waste it.

I’m as green as grass,
When it comes to this shit.
No clue what I’m doing,
Or how to deal with it.
It all balls up,
Right into my heart.
Like a dead balloon,
pierced with a dart.
Don’t know what to do, or say,
To make this affliction go away.
Maybe sleep forever,
Or punch a cinder block.
All I know is I just want this to stop.
I can feel it coming… from miles away
Now it starts again,
Thought it had spiked.
A rescheduled meeting,
With someone I don’t like.
It all comes back,
Right into my brain.
A repeating process,
That drives me insane.
Don’t know what to do, or say,
To make this affliction go away.
Maybe sleep forever,
Or punch a cinder block.
All I know is I just want this to stop.
I can feel it coming… from miles away
From miles away
It boiled over,
You failed to grasp.
The demands we needed,
For the simplest of tasks.
Wanted you to be better,
At least try to pretend.
You’re going the wrong way,
Straight into a dead end
