Life On Hold 04:16
Surrender my mind and sell my soul Gonna give em away, gonna lose control I'm tired of eating, working and sex I'm ready for the world that's coming next I don't mind the isolation It's out of my control I don't care, I got locked out of everywhere With nowhere else to go Is you is or is you ain't Locked myself in the truck, huffing paint Room at the Ritz, bowtie vodka spritz Or a trucker hat and can of Schlitz Yeah I don't care about it Mind isolation It's out of my control I don't care, I got locked out of everywhere With nowhere else to go There's nowhere else to go There's nowhere else to go There's nowhere else to go

You can bury me up to the hips with violent fits all day Comically intense because you take it out on everyone Around you like we're trying to pound your face in I want to be your friend, she said I'm older now (And I'm trying to pound your face in) You might go right past denial and rage Exchanging your soul when you sign on the page Holed up in a vacuum for echoed effect The voices of friends that you try to collect You say you don't know where to start But I've been dropping hints like an emotional depth charge Now you're leaving my car because you'll make it on your own Until you're paying alimony via Venmo No matter what you do, you'll never be the person I knew Again You might go right past denial and rage Exchanging your soul when you sign on the page Hold up in a vacuum for echoed effect The voices of friends that you try to forget Wrapped up in a blanket all quiet and clean The strict nihilism of daily routine I wanted to know but you'll never betray The body of choices that made you this way Leave the key under the mat I'll be in your bed whenever you're back They worked me hard in the warehouse today Poked full of holes, rusting away The mildest amusement I scrawled on your face It's so loud in the warehouse when it rains You're so out of range It's so loud in the warehouse when it rains I'm so stuck in place It's so loud in the warehouse when it rains

Love Shaq 03:19
I got a Chrysler, it's big and black 15 miles to my love shack I got a pipedream. She says what's that 13 miles to the love shack Falling out of the sky like Copernicus on Percocet To a speck in the back of my eye Just a twinkle in the doubt, circle in and circle out Make me twist and make me shout Everybody's moving around and around and around Keep 'em moving round and round Everybody's moving around and around and around Keep 'em moving round and round So ahead of your time that you were born nostalgic Let's bust a move for simpler days Don't be afraid to freak the squares Lord knows, it isn't fair Respect and rest in peace to Ricky Everybody's moving around and around and around Keep 'em moving round and round Everybody's moving around and around and around Keep 'em moving round and round

Each quick flash of thought in your head Is a NASCAR sponsored by existential dread The cokeheads are stoked, except when they're not high The hippies aren't happy and the punks wanna die You wanna make me cry but I don't wanna feel You wanna help me out but I don't wanna heal You can see my fucking bones 'cause I don't eat my meal Baby I am Brian Jones, I just wanna keep it real so Hey (Hey) you, get the fuck off my cloud Hey (Hey) you, get the fuck off my cloud Hey (Hey) you, get the fuck off my cloud And every single band disappears into the crowd That's right I disassociate with half a gram of hash hits Rip the meat off your bones with voyeuristic detachment In your caverns of denial, where thoughts aren't even flash-lit To the trailer park your ego crashed in, your whole head is ratchet Superstar, just swimming in the pool I'm underneath the water and I'm looking up at you I can hear the angels calling and they say it's time to leave I've got my own private cloud and none of y'all can bug me now Hey (Hey) you, get the fuck off my cloud Hey (Hey) you, get the fuck off my cloud Hey (Hey) you, get the fuck off my cloud And every single band disappears into the crowd Hey (Hey) you, get the fuck off my cloud Hey (Hey) you, get the fuck off my cloud Hey (Hey) you, get the fuck off my cloud And every single band disappears into the crowd Hey (Hey) you, get the fuck off my cloud Hey (Hey) you, get the fuck off my cloud It's overpopulated, dirty and loud And every single band disappears into the crowd

Dollop 04:12
Sit back and watch me fall (Slow) You won't have to wait long For something more that what you've got I could never give you what you want Wait for me, we can last I don't wanna be stuck in a frame Becoming a thing of the past She laughs and tilts her head I won't forget, I won't forget I was sinking deeper and deeper (And deeper) And then I looked up, and you were there Laughing at me Hit snooze more than a couple of wake up calls Cut loose more than a couple friends We passed out in each other's arms a lot You say you're living, but you're not I could never give you what you want (I feel trapped) Wait for me, we can last I don't wanna be stuck in a frame Becoming a thing of the past She laughs and tilts her head I won't forget, I won't forget Falling out of love for the first time And I can't think you off my mind Warm through the sheets, dreaming and still Falling out of love for the first time And I can't get you off my mind Warm through the sheets, dreaming and still mine

Working all damn day to keep the lights on Whiskey in my right palm, smoke a little napalm like Well my old lady brings home the short rib I put it on the grill and feed it to the kid like The dog don't bite and the cat don't scratch I'm mowing up the yard and taking out the trash like White picket fence two car garage hot shower The provider has authority, give me power What I say goes I'm the man of the house god dammit Yard to the fence got my own planet I know some of y'all don't understand it Well this goes out from a necessary rage Stuck in my beliefs I'm a dog in its cage 34, 5'10", 286 Moved to the city from back in the sticks Chief commander, cronies in tandem Country rendition of the National Anthem And if that toddler throws a tantrum Check me on that grassy knoll with a fuckin handgun cause What I say goes I'm the man of the house god dammit Yard to the street, run my own planet I know some of y'all don't understand it Well my ol' lady's been sleeping with Stan Don't bother me much, I'm a modern man It's still my room, floor to the dresser Raise yer kids tall and kill your oppressor What I say goes What I say goes... What I say goes I'm the man of the house god dammit Yard to the street, run my own planet I know some of y'all don't understand it

God can be anyone you want That's the idea this country was built on Everybody's right, nobody is wrong Who are you praying to, and what can they give you Everybody's living in their own world Couple hundred years later, everything's the same Subjectivity rules the modern age Delusional or stupid, you can pick your own truth Cannibalize me if you're able to disprove what I say You assign your own meaning to anything I say Everybody's living in their own world Love and die Hate and die Live and die Die and die Everybody's living in their own world Everybody's living in their own world

Llycra 03:24
Had a world now locked away While I burn at the factory Used to live for the underground, but I could really give a shit right now I'm so gone All the way All the way Had a life with direction too All made up but it's real to you Kiss me like you're stomping on my lips Didn't text me back, had my stomach doing flips Can you still remember All the way Can you still remember All the way

At the end of my rope Clean hands around the throat of my hope Throwing itself against the wall Trying to get used to it all I hear the voices from a lack-of-sleep induced psychosis I see the faces before the memory erases I hear the voices from a lack-of-sleep induced psychosis I see the faces before the memory erases I feel the void of the lives that I destroyed And left behind a residue of thoughts I can't avoid At the end of my time Safe box to ruminate on my crime Two sides of my brain don't get along On my weak days you make me strong I always knew it'd come to this Living in domestic bliss

Coca-Cola on a big red sign I'm moving to the city again Gonna build myself a better life and Throw away the man I've been But still a freak, take 'em straight to Mars And baby I'll compete, gonna break their hearts Gonna make 'em dance, they're gonna know it's true I'm gonna make 'em high because they've felt it too A better life without the rows of static guilt And under pine trees up the hill Drink whiskey by the chapel doors I'm a burden, but I'm yours See my reflection in a nervous glance Devolving in an obvious way Fall into familiar patterns Grow more nonexistent every day The life you chose is gonna wear you down It's gonna chew you up, it's gonna spit you out But they'll eat their words, yeah they're gonna pay They're gonna find they're falling backward Watching you hop the gate A better life without the rows of static guilt And under pine trees up the hill Drink whiskey by the chapel doors I'm a burden, but I'm yours A better life without the rows of static guilt And under pine trees up the hill She drinks whiskey by the chapel doors I'm a burden, but I'm yours
