Satan 00:58
I saw the fire in your eyes So I ran right for the hill, though I knew that you would find Me lying in the bushes foaming at the mouth From a little pill and in my final time I saw the devil in your eyes And you took me in your arms, said you'd never let me go But it was cold and it was late, the poison running through my veins You dug a hole and finally sent me home
2.
Tell Me 03:31
You should probably take your story to somebody who cares It's clear that I'm not listening and you've got that awful stare So look me in the eyes and tell me what it is you want That I probably haven't got Well I'm telling you once and I'm telling you again I ain't really keen on being a friend So how many times must I say it to be clear? I wanna be so far from here So tell me what I gotta do Tell me what I gotta do right now You know I never wanted to be your friend anyhow Last time I checked your life was still a wreck There was still nothing for me to do I won't say goodbye and maybe this way you won't die You'll manage to see it all through Is your life really that bad or is it you that makes it sad? 'Cause no one wants to hear your complain In the end you're probably right but don't sleep at night 'Cause you're driving yourself insane I couldn't stop it if I wanted to I can’t stop the veins from pulsing life right out of you I'd hand right over my best tourniquet Would be my world's finest regret Well you can't teach an old dog new tricks But you can watch it get older And no you can't take a drunk dog And force it to get sober
3.
Sad Sunday 03:54
Remember being wanted Somewhere outside the bar Pointless destination Driving away in your car It's been so long Since I remember that So I lay in my bed Feeling sober and drab 'Cause it's another Sad Sunday You know they're never gonna change And maybe you can dream Of all the shit that you had You wake up in the morning Pretend it don't seem so bad But all I want Is to get it out of my head But really you just fuck all of that I'm going back to my bed 'Cause it's another Sad Sunday You know they're never gonna change My life doesn't change Some parts rearrange They end up just always the same Complain without worry I put forth no effort So really who else is to blame?
4.
Can't get the columns out of my head Skip congrats to the newlyweds I'm not sure of what I just read All I know for sure is that another one is dead Can't stop staring at the black and white Pigment is gone just like their life It's cutting me so deep like a double edge knife But I gotta read it So tonight, I'm the king of the obituary So please die Something their heartbeat just went wrong I wonder what they'll choose for a funeral song I'll put it on repeat and keep listening on Oh I've gotta hear it So tonight I'm the king of the obituary So please die Whisper to the casket "Can't you tell You're off to a better place to feel well?" Yeah, people got hysterical when they rang the death bell But I'll see you soon enough, right down there in hell
5.
Take the tears of a baby boy and shove them back in his eyes That story's been over told Split a heart and split a mind Irrationality over time Hope you want to die alone You had to stop believing Knew you were defeated Tired of always getting Secondhand letdown Could you represent yourself Any lower if you tried I'd like to think you're at the bottom But time and time and time and time Time and time again You dig deeper than I could fathom Pray that through your wire and mouth Please oh please Just shut it up Leave your wallowing In your forgotten pit We've finally had enough
6.
You're just another passerbyer, fed by a loving liar  In the end isn't that who you chose to take to bed?  Once the guilt piles up and you think you've had enough  A casket seems like a nice place to rest your head  It's hard to see what's real when your skin begins to peel  But once you shed it off just leave it all behind  What the hell  is wrong with me?  It's getting hard to choose whether to win or to lose  Either way you're leaving someone broken and cold to die  You slither like a snake and maybe once is a mistake  But it's all easier without a conscience to wonder why  Look at who you've been and think of what you've seen  Maybe it's time to let the rest pass on by  What the hell  is wrong with me?  Well your life was like a book but you forgot how to read  All the pages went blank, there was nothing there to see  Yeah your life was like a book you couldn't stand how to read  Took all the blank pages, ripped them out at the seams  Life was like a book you couldn't handle to read  and the pages went red when your eyes start to bleed  Life was like a book based on honesty  That's why all of the pages are blank  What the hell  is wrong with me?
7.
It's getting harder and harder To read through inebriated lines The more spacious you feel Well the tighter your life always binds That's why I'm living here in intoxicated dreams When the light hits my life you know it's hard to redeem And I feel the same as I always did You're digging deeper and deeper You're travelling farther below But the deeper you dig Well it feels like the less that you know That's why I'm dying here in intoxicated dreams When the light hits my life you know it's worse than it seems And I feel the same as I always did It's twisting it's turning And it's all predetermined The way you thought it'd go But you can't recall It’s twisting and turning The lies and the vermin the words You thought you'd said But you can't recall And I feel the same as I always did
