Venom 03:15
Venom I thought I'd be the snake Coil up, then slink away Getting colder every day I shiver, my rattle starts to shake And now I'm gone Sliding along Spitting venom Forgotten in a dream I stretched my phantom limbs I slithered in the sun, and I reveled in my mortal sin I hate how you hate to admit I did it all for you Next time I'll keep it to myself Can't find you in this pit These snake eyes can't see shit Hundreds all filling it Just bathing in the venom that I spit And now I'm gone Sliding along Spitting venom Forgotten in a dream I stretched my phantom limbs I slithered in the sun, and I reveled in my mortal sin I hate how you hate to admit I did it all for you Next time I'll keep it to myself

St. Peter 03:18
St. Peter I try to watch out I try to be safe I try to freak out Less these days But then you come around And I get so cold Try not to think about: I'm feeling so old I'm feeling so old I'm feeling so old Lipstick Geronimo Lovesick animal Diamond-studded longbow Draws back and lets go I try to watch out I try to be safe I try to freak out Less these days But then you come around And I get so cold Try not to think about: I'm feeling so old I'm feeling so old I'm feeling so old Brass knuckle ballerina Graceful little soul stealer And you know I'm gonna try to meet her She's got me hung up like St. Peter

Water to the Dead I pour my heart out See how it sinks down? I've got no tears for your dusty mouth Can words ever flow deep enough? I pour my heart out See how it sinks down? And I'm alright with everything Even if I don't know What any of it means By the time I go Please oh please RSVP to my funeral Don't know when it is Hope you can make it I'll be so much more graceful Lying there like an angel I pour my heart out See how it sinks down? And I'm alright with everything Even if I don't know What any of it means By the time I go

Destitution 01:56
Destitution My body's oh so slow Slower than I knew that it could go Blood pressure's dropping, oh it's low Can't even pick up on my phone I know a way out of this I know the best solution I know a way out of this Out of this destitution Get on the road Don't tell a soul Go it alone The DJ, don't know what he's saying Hate what he's playing He's just obeying But he don't know My body's oh so slow Slower than I knew that it could go Blood pressure's dropping, oh it's low Can't even pick up on my phone I know a way out of this I know the best solution I know a way out of this Out of this destitution

Cataclysm 04:39
Cataclysm Out on a world so far away from where you came from Rest don't come easy no matter where you lay your head And you wake up with a pain in your neck What did you expect? Weren't you trying to break it? Party like you can't move a muscle Tumblers attached to mouths like muzzles Everyone locked together like a puzzle All in a bubble, waiting for the needle I feel like leaving my possessions behind Lifting of the ground and just floating away But the trouble is a matter of time Tomorrow's burning for the touch of today Chained to a post and set on fire, you little liar Just smoldering, your belly filling up with hate Nothing to do, just accept your fate Wouldn't that be great? You don't have to wait You don't have to wait You don't have to wait Volunteer your children for the carton Or trade them in for some pardon Another cataclysm on horizon The only new dawn left to rely on I feel like leaving my possessions Lifting off the ground and floating But the trouble with leaving Is tomorrow is burning Yeah, tomorrow is burning Yeah, tomorrow is burning

Whiskey 02:48
Whiskey Beast Inside you are just a handsome beast Open your ribcage, loosen the leash Hear how he growls, see how he bears his teeth At the sight of me I've got some old shit I don't want to give away (I'd like to use it for a while, but I don't have space) I'd like to keep it, but then it'll just go to waste (It's in the closet, kindling to burn down this place) I've got a secret hiding just behind my face (I'd come clean, but I'd only dirty up your grace) A bad dream that never really goes away (Cheap whiskey and a horrible aftertaste) Inside I am just a handsome beast Open my ribcage, loosen the leash Hear how he growls, see how he bears his teeth At the sight of me Check in the closet for shit to burn down this place (And in its spot put a towering metal frame) Build a rocket and fill it up with the remains (I'd rather launch than give any of it away) I've got a secret I don't want to give away (I'd try to keep it, but I wouldn't last a day) It's underneath just trying to burrow through my face Inside you are just a handsome beast Open your ribcage, loosen the leash Hear how he growls, see how he bears his teeth At the sight of me

Soft Metal 05:04
Soft Metal Don't know how, but I figured out last week My style is just soft metal Took a while, but I'm OK now I don't feel like such a shadow And life feels less like a battle No more cross-hairs, maybe next time you won't Just pick me off like a petal I'm not your enemy Point your gun away, your gun away from me Point your gun away, your gun away from me I've been living in the underground And all my best friends are demons It's uncanny how we get along You know, I think I might be one It's not what I thought I'd become But I like it, now they've clipped my wings And I've stopped chasing dreams of heaven I'm more than fantasy So don't run away, don't run away with me Don' run away, don't run away with me Don't run away, don't run away from me I've grown all the way up I think I know enough But if you've you've got something to teach me I'll pay full attention Practice in my spare time I'm soft metal, you can ply me Down
