Nothing's New to Me
01:44
|

Nothing here is new to me
Nothing’s worth my time
I could try to sell the same old shit
But I’d lose my fucking mind
And I’ve got time, but don’t we all?
Dream so big, but don’t we all?
Look what complacency’s done to me
What am I leaving behind?
Nothing but a trail of apathy, broken strings, and sighs
And I’ve got time, but don’t we all?
Dream so big, but don’t we all?

Existential Dread
02:57
|

Used to go on forever about making REAL change
Not your typical American slob
Another jaded realist disappointed Disregarded at a mindless job
And once you start, you won't stop
You're just another statistic
Like a number without a name
Every passing day is always one in the same
How did I get so lost in the game?
Can't say I don't believe in nothing
If there is a God, that fucker wants us dead
Lost in my phone while I'm yearning for death
I'm on the clock and off my rocker working 8 hours instead
Days turn into weeks and weeks turn into months and years fly by until you're dead
And if we're only truly free when we die, why do we bother getting out of bed?
The American dream, it ain't exactly what it seems and trying to chase it will drive you insane
As our world circles the drain, you'll never hear me complain
We don't deserve to live anyway
So fuck It!
Can't say I don't believe in nothing
If there is a God, that fucker wants us dead
Lost in my phone while I'm yearning for death
I'm on the clock and off my rocker working 8 hours instead
Go to work, sleep, go to work... repeat
8 hours ain't enough for me to count all the sheep
Can't say I don't believe in nothing
If there is a God, that fucker wants us dead
Lost in my phone while I'm yearning for death
I'm on the clock and off my rocker working 8 hours instead
I'm on the clock and off my rocker working 8 hours instead
I'm on the clock and off my rocker working 8 hours instead
Go to work, sleep, go to work... repeat
8 hours ain't enough for me to count all the sheep

You ask me am I content?
Probably not, but I don't know
I can't feel a fuckin thing and it makes it tough to grow
My mind's waste bin
I let it fill to the brim
It's steady overflowin and It's hard to get a grip again
Stagnant
I always wind up being that and when I start to move forward, I just circle right back
The heart wants something that the brain can't grasp
Every time I cry for help, the world screams back
Riddled with anxiety, a false sense of autonomy
While I blame our society as an excuse for my dependencies
There's nowhere to run and all hope is gone
But I can fake a smile and do my time and say I'm fine
I'm comfortably dumb
Am I disconnected?
Ask me again in 5 minutes
I'll start to get my thoughts together and I'll never fucking finish
I've been tempted
To put an end to it all
Hicks said It's just a ride, well where do I get off?
Complacement
Where do I fit? I don't belong
When everything is right, why do I still feel wrong?
I'm sick of always writing these apathetic songs
When you hate that you exist, It can be hard to stay strong
Riddled with anxiety, a false sense of autonomy
While I blame our society as an excuse for my dependencies
There's nowhere to run and all hope is gone
But I can fake a smile and do my time and say I'm fine
I'm comfortably dumb
Whether we admit it or not, sometimes we all feel like giving up
But next time you feel like you've lost all hope, you can mark my words
Atleast your not (You're never all) alone
We're spending so much of our time so out of touch with our realities
This drug dubbed distraction delivered via glowing screen
Or through a bottle a needle or a pill
Strips us of any identity, quells our free will
It's an illusion you see
The notion that we're anything but gears in a machine
I'm fucking useless in this state of disillusionment
My indifference to the world at large I dread
Riddled with anxieties
Strapped with a pipe dream of autonomy
I just can't embrace sobriety
So for now I'll stay
Comfortably comfortably comfortably
Numb and hide away in bed
Curtains drawn, I'm playing dead
When nukes descend to end the earth
I'll try my best, conceal my mirth
We've had no say in our own birth
So what's existence truly worth?
Consciousness my greatest bane
With vice in hand I shall remain
Comfortably comfortably
Comfortably dumb

Turning My Ear
01:54

Shit happens every other day
People think It's fine and they push it away
Go embrace television like the other ones
Let em' lie every day
Got money, got a say
Turning my ear
Want my head clear
Turning my ear
Want my head clear
Turning my ear
Want my head clear
Turning my ear
Want my head clear
Getting worse getting worse
No one can agree
Basing your opinions from a TV screen
What can you really do?
Start a riot?
Get popped?
Voice your opinion and they might give a fuck
Turning my ear
Want my head clear
Turning my ear
Want my head clear
Turning my ear
Want my head clear
Turning my ear
Want my head clear

Forget your hopes and dreams
We're falling for their schemes
As life goes on, we lose sight of that special something
The only way to succeed, work til' our fingers bleed
Do what they tell us or amount to nothing
But can you tell me why?
How can you justify?
You're tryin' to strip me of my
What makes me who I am
They're holding information
Don't trust that TV station
Stand up for the truth or sit back down
I can make up my own mind
Who are you to tell me to give up what I love for a job?
It's obvious you have misguided beliefs, but I'll live my life on my own
We don't see eye to eye
Agree to disagree
That's all I ask, leave me alone
So just fuck off with your one-sided beliefs
I'm living my life on my own and nothing's holding me down
Go ahead and believe the illusion that we're free
When you grow up, you're gonna be who they want you to be
They tell us what to eat
And what we can and can't read
Open your eyes, why can't you see?
But can you tell me why?
How can you justify?
You're tryin' to strip me of my What makes me who I am
They give false information
To hell with that TV station
Seek the truth for yourself or sit back down
I can make up my own mind
Who are you to tell me to give up what I love for a job?
It's obvious you have misguided beliefs, but I'll live my life on my own
We don't see eye to eye
Agree to disagree
That's all I ask, leave me alone
So just fuck off with your one-sided beliefs, I'm living my life on my own
What's the point of living at all if you're not living for yourself?
We're not just here to go to work and die
Together we can change the world

Absent Mediator

I’m stuck, alone
Fallen into a hole
My role is minimal
In all that I do
I can’t fill these shoes
Help me, fuckin’ help me
I’m losing myself
Losing it all
My regular mediator
Forgot to call

Sleep sleep, I cannot sleep
The whole damn country's about to freak
Lies lies, can't believe the lies
Same shit every day
Did it all yesterday
I don't have robot eyes
Cannot, will not live a live a lie
We get so stuck inside the beds they've made for us
I know eventually that we'll all start to see
It's made for us, It's all set up
Make a move or be a sitting duck
Scream scream, I wanna scream
Gotta be asleep to believe the dream
I cannot sleep so I cannot dream
Your tricks and lies won't work on me
I don't have robot eyes
Cannot, will not live a live a lie
We get so stuck inside the beds they've made for us
I know eventually that we'll all start to see
It's made for us, It's all set up
Make a move or be a sitting duck

None of you are perfect, so why discriminate?
I thought diversity was what made this nation "great"?
You talk unity til' It defies your own beliefs
Either include everyone or know when not to speak
We can have a better tomorrow if we eliminate hate today
Just cuz' you can doesn't make it okay
The world's moving forward while you're stuck in your ways
Life's too short, fuck being mean
Let's keep that shit out of our scene
Supremacy's not welcome here
Nobody should have to live in fear
If you're not down with that, don't come around
There's more of us than you and our time is now
We support our equal rights
And as one, we're ready to fight
If you're excuse is freedom of speech gimme a fucking break
You're a fool if you use yours to enforce hate
We're all equal : Gender, sexual preference and race
We're in this together and you're in the wrong place
Bigots like you keep humanity from advancing
Divided we stand, why not united as one?
Our system was created to fuck everyone
Life's too short, fuck being mean
Let's keep that shit out of our scene
Supremacy's not welcome here
Nobody should have to live in fear
If you're not down with that, don't come around
There's more of us than you and our time is now
We support our equal rights
And as one, we're ready to fight

Each day, I reflect back and dwell on my destructive past
Much love to my friends that helped me find my head
You saved me from myself
I'd say "I've had enough" every single night, and we'd cheers a better life for the millionth time
While they all rolled their eyes as I declined, y'all never left my side
I owe you my life
You know those pals who were always down?
That you thought would always stick around?
Until the bottle was gone, where are they now?
The truth hurts sometimes
I fantasized my death way too often, convinced abusing drugs would solve those problems
I still own real estate in rock bottom, but I made it out alive
Hey ma! Look at me now
You finally told me I make you proud
I'm sorry for all the pain I've delt
I gave you nothing short of hell
I've moved on from those detox bills
All those late night calls from the county jail
You believed I could and I figured it out somewhere along the way
For the first time ever, my shit's in order And sober's just a word for accepting boredom
I focus on my goals
Put all energy towards them, yeah
I think I'll be alright
Apologies and thanks to remaining my friends
I'm never gonna go back there again
To anyone else battling addiction...
you CAN win the fight
I believe in you

Apocalypse conspiracies
Is it so hard to believe that we're already half way there?
Don't believe everything you read
Been livin' the bright side of the lie, yeah
Have we lost ourselves?
Been livin' the bright side of the lie, yeah
Have we lost ourselves?
The cops and the KKK, what the fucks the difference anyway?
And I believe that everybody knows, but everybody chooses not to say
It's going on before our very eyes, but It's easy to believe the lies
We can't just let them haul the kids away
We've gotta take back what's ours
The don't care how many die, no
They're only concerned with wealth
The holocaust was fucking recent and history repeats itself
Been livin' the bright side of the line, yeah
Have we lost ourselves?
Been livin' the bright side of the lie, yeah
Have we lost ourselves
The cops and the KKK, what the fucks the difference anyway?
And I believe that everybody knows, but everybody chooses not to say
It's going on before our very eyes, but It's easy to believe the lies
We can't just let them haul the kids away
We've gotta take back what's ours
Make America think again
I won't let them blindly lead me into World War 3
I've got my own life to destroy, and It's all on me
I won't let them blindly lead me into World War 3
I'm gonna lose my own battle
This is my life, and I'm gonna lose World War Me
