No God 02:43
NO GOD Clear out your conscience from immoral acts abound Ask for some forgiveness… you’re shot down Shot them down… Shot them down Pray for starving children with gold crosses all around Ask some donations… you’re shot down Shot them down… Shot them down I just wanna see this God in which you believe He’s Not Real… He’s Not Real I just wanna see, this God in which you believe He’s Not Real, She’s Not Real, They’re Not Real IT’S NOT REAL Global Warming is a hoax, but Noah’s Ark is sound Now that’s some stupid shit … you’re shot down Shot them down… Shot them down A bible verse in your bio... you think you’re so profound It’s all just make believe… you’re shot down Shot them down… Shot them down I just wanna see this God in which you believe He’s Not Real… He’s Not Real I just wanna see, this God in which you believe He’s Not Real, She’s Not Real, They’re Not Real IT’S NOT REAL You judge me for my whiskey bottle, but drink the words from your worthless bible You fund your fable with people’s money, But when you die, it’s still not sunny You know you’re wrong, it’s all a tale, And I bet your hand won’t take a nail. If it’s a sin these things I say I guess it’s time you pray. I guess it’s time you pray. I guess it’s time you pray. I guess it’s time you pray. I guess it’s time you pray. I guess it’s time you pray.

Drank The Ocean Dry I awoke, beside a phone booth lying on the cold dark ground sun was coming up and the shit was going down I don't really, really wanna fight baby, baby put down that butcher knife never meant for nothing, I can hear the sirens coming now You and I drank the ocean dry you and I drank the ocean dry turn and wave goodbye through my bloodshot eyes you and I drank the ocean dry I'll take your beer, out into the night These cops don't find the situation all right We’re lost, not found… but someday, someday I'll come around Now I’m helping my lady through a window into Smith's, into Smith's old shack Mrs. Officer’s hot on our heels, she's got a pistol, a pistol of black You and I drank the ocean dry you and I drank the ocean dry turn and wave goodbye through my bloodshot eyes you and I drank the ocean dry

Shot Club 02:06
Shot Club Whiskey Bourbon - Line em all up Sparkling Wine - Drunk as fuck Tequila or Rum - Quite the theme It’s a harmless crime - Ponzy Scheme We don’t have money - We’ll be fine Let’s ask that honey - The dot she’ll sign Ma’am pardon me These shots you see There could be three Just join the tree Now find a friend Their ear we’ll bend And I’ll be drinking (we’ll be drinking)… for free

She 02:33
SHE She writes a book, with a knife and your blood A tale of deep sorrow… once true love When you first met, you never could see She was gonna bring you to your knees If she has a heart, she’s probably never used it I bet she doesn’t know it’s even there But when you poured it all out, she was so burned out… … with your shit, so she didn’t care… she didn’t care She shared a smile, with a flirt and you believed… It was time for feelings on your sleeve. Now it’s all for not, and you were dead wrong ‘Cause anything she had was now long gone If she has a heart, she’s probably never used it I bet she doesn’t know it’s even there But when you poured it all out, she was so burned out… … with your shit, so she didn’t care… she didn’t care She holds your heart, in her hand, with your grudge You both lean in for a goodbye hug The cold smirk on her face, that you will never see A telling tale that she’s fucking free. If she has a heart, she’s probably never used it I bet she doesn’t know it’s even there But when you poured it all out, she was so burned out… … with your shit, so she didn’t care… she didn’t care

Red Dawn 03:01
Red Dawn Things are different now They’re way off course A group of teens Fighting the Soviet force The radiator’s busted No water, just pee. Behind enemy lines In the middle of World War 3 We’re all gonna die Don’t shed tears for me A Re-education camp Matt RPG! Chorus D: The chair is against the wall, the chair is against the wall, the chair is against the wall Everyone: Wolverines D: John has a long mustache, John has a long mustache, John has a long mustache Everyone: Wolverines. Wolverines, Wolverines, Wolverines Verse 2 How long we here Jed? Til we don't hear that no more. It was one on five I got myself 4 All of this hate gonna burn you up kid It keeps me warm For As long as I live What happens to mom, dad? Dad, Where is she? You can’t afford to be crying Boys… Avenge Me!!!! Chorus D: The chair is against the wall, the chair is against the wall, the chair is against the wall Everyone: Wolverines D: John has a long mustache, John has a long mustache, John has a long mustache Everyone: Wolverines. Wolverines, Wolverines, Wolverines Bridge America… is a whorehouse… where the revolutionary ideals of your forefathers… are corrupted and sold in alleys… by vendors of capitalism

We Teach Nothing There’s a good time, When I know I’m late. I’m waiting at a red light in another stupor haze I wanna teach That it’s not right… But I gotta get back to work, and last night I drank for days That ache is fine, So I’ll try to skate Through this work day, so I get myself paid I hear the preach, A rat in the maze I dig in the glove box for another dart to blaze Why do I do this… grind until I bleed? Throw away my life for things that I don’t need? Sponged for all I’m worth, for someone else’s greed? Who gives a shit if the king succeeds? I went in thinking, I passed the test And the disappointment hits when I got the answers wrong Ignore the messages, Social media hexes, The Effort’s failing… and my attention is long gone I never knew now, That I needed know how To weave these worlds together so I can survive It’s all a waste of time, So, I guess I’ll get in line. To Punch the out clock… as home I start to drive Why do I do this… grind until I bleed? Throw away my life for things that I don’t need? Sponged for all I’m worth, for someone else’s greed? Who gives a shit if the king succeeds?

Order 66 02:37
Order 66 The longer you keep this going It’s getting fucking boring You’re a modern-day snake oil man The Ace of Bass is filler A fucking self-named killer You really are you own number one fan Never say what you do or do what you say Stealing from others really makes you lame Changing the game one line at a time Feeding your ego with someone else’s dime They’ll spin your wheel so, your worth feels real When they come to senses And see you’re climbing fences That others built long before you arrived They’ll find it’s all a lie Cause you’re no Jedi The drones will leave, and it’ll be your demise Never say what you do or do what you say Stealing from others really makes you lame Changing the game one line at a time Feeding your ego with someone else’s dime They’ll spin your wheel so, your worth feels real We watch from the stands as you cut your own bangs Never say what you do or do what you say Stealing from others really makes you lame Changing the game one line at a time Feeding your ego with someone else’s dime They’ll spin your wheel so, your worth feels real

Intertesting Interests I wish I had interesting interests I wish I was straight in my rounds I want to be clear in deception I want to be firm with my sound I want to do what you’re doing Every night I want to do what you’re doing Without the fight I wish I had someone to go solo I wish I had feelings to frown I want to find lost ones to follow I want to be dry when I drown I want to do what you’re doing Every night I want to do what you’re doing Without the fight I wish for a room full of empties I wish you were down to make up I want to be high when I’m falling I want a free way to be stuck I want to do what you’re doing Every night I want to do what you’re doing Without the fight

Cosplay 03:27
My girl’s right beside me till the very end Cause life’s no fun when you pretend Her love wasn’t dressed up, right from the start. Cause she don’t cosplay with my heart You take care of me… I’ll take care of you This is how it works, cause you’re into what I’m into You take care of me… I’ll take care of you This is how it works, cause you’re into what I’m into Those games are never played, we know what to do Life’s so good when the mask’s removed. Never puts on a disguise when we’re apart. Cause she don’t cosplay with my heart You take care of me… I’ll take care of you This is how it works cause you’re into what I’m into You take care of me… I’ll take care of you This is how it works cause you’re into what I’m into
