Trash Talk

1.Uncivil Disobedience

Occupy all streets!

Stop me if you think it's complete, I see you're displeased

Class war rages on

Stop me if you've heard this song

You've heard this song

Exciting, inciting a riot and writing some history...

peaceful protest to lesser degree

2. Blossom & Burn

Cardboard crutches

Support the weigh of the world

Ashes to ashes

Blossom and burn

3. Reasons

Run away run away,

I set the stage, I make the rules

I'm surrounded by idiots

I'm surrounded by fools just like me

Look away, look away

You don't want to see the things I've seen

I'm surrounded by liars and thieves and they're just like me

Don't you think one turn deserves another,

I know I know I know I'm just a bother

Hand full of flesh, hair in the other

I know I know I know you've got another reason

Your reasons will be the death of you in my eyes

Reasons, your reasons will be the death of us

You're the ring around my neck

You're the kink in my spine

You're the ink underneath my skin and the thorn in my side

Don't you think one turn deserves another,

I know I know I know I'm just a bother

Hand full of flesh, hair in the other

I know I know I know you've got another reason

Your reasons will be the death of you in my eyes

Reasons, your reasons will be the death of us

4. Fuck Nostalgia

Strung out, bummed out, hung out to dry

Talked up, shut down, cut down to size

I can't make it, I can't make it - I can't seem to make ends meet

I can't stand it, I can't stand it - I can't stand on my own two feet

No order, no balance, no peace

No saving grace, no calm of mind

The only times I can call my own are the times I've left behind

Picked up, put down, left out to die

Turnt up, turned down, kicked out, that's life

I can't make it, I can't make it - I can't seem to make ends meet

I can't stand it, I can't stand it - I can't stand on my own two feet

No order, no balance, no peace

No saving grace, no calm of mind

The only times I can call my own are the times I've left behind

5. Eat the cycle

Are you bored of your boredom?

Fingers feeling worked to the bone?

Afraid of the life that you've made?

You're not alone

Who says the best is yet to come?

The future's blanker than the black of my lungs

I've seen the things we become - it's a cycle

And it's only begun

Shit drips from the lips of the grins in the gallery

You pinch pennies for pension, upper tiers up their salary

No one rests in peace

Nothing deviates,

but the deviant mind maligned with ill will,

feeling justified

Who says the best is yet to come?

The future's blanker than the black of my lungs

I've seen the things we become - it's a cycle

And it's only begun

Who says the dawn of man's behind us?

Who says that wisdom ever finds us?

Ties will bind us

Lights will blind us

You're not alone

Ties will bind you, indentured 9 to 5

Nobody blames you, you gotta eat to survive

Ashamed to ask for what you're being denied

You're made your sacrifices

I've made mine

Ashamed to ask for what you're being denied,

But everybody's gotta eat

6. Exile on Broadway

Government cheese, garbage in the streets

All I see is poverty

New skid row, no one's gonna know

All they see is suffering

Lost, scared, tucked away in alleys

Out of sight, out of mind

Hidden from society's eyes

Out of luck, out time

Exile on Broadway

Drugs, despair, violence in the air

All I see is poverty

Cold concrete, lingering disease,

All they see is suffering

Lost, scared, tucked away in alleys

Out of sight, out of mind

Hidden from society's eyes

Out of luck, out of time

Exile on Broadway

Defunct, defeated, corrupt, mistreated, exile

7. My Rules

Crucify me, come and get me, build me up,

break me down

Crucifix me

Locked doors aint nothing, no more

Cold floors are all I need

Take heed, I'm not afraid of he who bleeds the same as me

In this world there are those who learn to hate

And the rest are fools

Call me a fool

I've learned to hate

Within my rules

My rules

Drag me through hell and back, deny my human rights

This earthly pain don't mean a thing

Locked doors aint nothing no more

Cold floors are all I need

Take heed, I'm not afraid of he who bleeds the same as me

In this world there are those who learn to hate

And the rest are fools

Call me a fool

I've learned to hate

Within my rules

8. F.E.B.N.

Can’t eat can't drink, my head is spinning

My stomach feasts on itself, how fucking fitting?

I scrape myself from the floor; swear I've been her before

Gut splitting, fucking quitting, I gotta even the score

Down not out

Onward upward always

Forwards ever backwards never

Down not out

Onward upward

Can't think, can't sleep, my heart is racing

Running from the past that I broke, or the future I'm racing

I'm wearing thin, I'll probably be here again

Tongue biting, and writhing, fighting my way back in

Down not out

Onward upward always

Forwards ever backwards never

Down not out

Onward upward

9. Apathy

Enough with all the lectures and gestures

you make to act like people give a fuck for one another

Use, reuse, abuse, repeat

Unending repetition, twisted humanity

Save me! I think I need it

Last week I lost my head and didn't feel it

Lend me eternity or tear my lungs from me

It doesn't make a difference

I'm sick of living a lie

Good fucking riddance

By now I'm barely alive

If I died it wouldn't make a fucking difference

Save me! I think I need it

Last week I lost my head and didn't feel it

Lend me eternity or tear my lungs from me

It doesn't make a difference

Mad at the world sick of my girl

Try not to think they're all against me cause

they push and they pull

I'm all leaned out and my support beams are pillars of doubt

I've been digging in

I should be running right now

Save me, I think I need it

Just last week I lost my head and didn't feel it

10. Thanks, but no thanks

You preach of necessary evils, "margins and bargains," bullshit and slogans

A lie is still a lie, and I see between the dotted lines

You sought me out, clawed at my eyes

Why should I have to follow the blind?

Tear at my face, then up the stakes, I've made up my mind

You're screaming promises that I don't want to hear

My eyes are shut to you, both hands over my ears

Your indecision's disguised as inner vision

You ask me what I want, but never listen

You're screaming promises that I don't want to hear

My eyes are shut to you, both hands over my ears

11. Bad Habits

Habit, habit I got a bad habit that I just

can't break - I can't shake it

Vices, vices all of the time

I just can't seem to get them out of my mind

We've taken on pain, for pleasure? Or just to maintain?

Forged our own chains, creatures of habits

we've fixed our own brains

Habit, habit I got a bad habit that I just

can't break - I can't shake it

Vices, vices all of the time

I just can't seem to get em out of my mind

Do I want it? Do I need it?

I'm gonna do it I wanna feel it

I can't seem to get em out of my mind

I need it I need it now

My fingernails are yellow and my breath is stale

My body's rotting

My stench is out of control

I hardly notice

My gums are bleeding and my tongue is white

My lungs are dying

My stench is out of control

I hardly notice

12. Swing to pieces

Every time I start out I run into a wall,

Pick up the pieces that fall to the floor

I see mortar, I see brick

My fists are skin; I long to see through it

So I swing and I swing and I swing and I know

Once I don't have the strength anymore

And I fall to the floor I'm in pieces

I'm in pieces

13. For the lesser good

6 billion people on this earth can't all be wrong

We've been blind to their advances

We're way to busy stroking egos and building bombs

Awaiting second chances

6 billion people on this earth can't all deserve to die

14. The Dogman

Enter the Dogman

Watch him as he walks

Bellowing, teeth yellowing,

Teetering on his stalks

Stains the air with his night train breath

Coughed through train track smiles

Sleep is for suckers

Rest in the dust for a while
