No Trust 04:31
Don't want it anymore It's locked behind the door No trust I say that now but feelings are a must. Wish we were friends again They all think I was in the wrong I think so too but now it's been too long. Hungriest at the time When I am last in line for food Though it's all eaten only some of it is chewed. All bridges icy now I slid and that is how I know I caught myself now I'm back on the road. Circular reasoning Figure out how and why and when I was gone for a minute Now I'm back again. Machines don't feel pain They just see patterns in the act The pattern here's it's gone I want it back. X right through the sin I hear there's power in the blood Add a little dirt turn directly into mud. Don't want it anymore It's locked behind the door No trust I say that now but feelings are a must.

There's no death I don't deserve. I was born a sinner. As a man I'm only worse. I die on my way to work. They curse my name. They think I'm late. You walk in and see the nurse. Find a picture I saved of a drink you made me. There you feel some worth. Not because of me, but because of my need. And that I loved you but not the earth. Some of what you don't do, but the rest was you. You had me live like there was meaning. You had me say my own name. I could take whatever pain. Because hell is just when you're leaving. A whole life lived wrong until hearing the right song.

You can count your comfortable days and time spent rolling on the floor. Down on the floor. There's no reason to grow old anymore. You can feel the end of the day and night comes in, evening the score. Opening the door. There's no feeling but fear and fatigue anymore. From what fear or fears do you hide or heed, you silly world? Look at myself deep and spread my own blood all over your door. I won't come anymore. Your sermon and speech, a creep and two little whores. Having women and speed around yourself, 24. I cut myself deep and where there was blood is now just a sore. Finding the lord. There's a reason to grow old, little girl.

Wet Dirt 01:29

A careful man would move with a careful hand. Doing the hundred year hop. Keeping still, don't want to offend the stars. They cry: Doing the hundred year hop. You're led in on your chain the day you're born. You cry: Doing the hundred year hop. You're no star. You suffer in a world of pain. You die: Doing the hundred year hop.

Container 03:30
A secret life in a secret culture A former friend and a first love Hunting you down, hunting in the suburbs Find where you live, find where you'll die Keeping a pact I make with myself I follow them home, keeping just shy Peep through the walls, through the container Containing life, unchain myself We were boys but you had a brother We all know what happened there He's on the roof on acne medication He got down, so we went up there I'm scared of heights and I shouldn't trust you I won't have to throw my own self off You'll be the one a couple years later Losing my faith and friend I had no choice then Why would I have one now I tortured myself because of your family I breathe down the neck of any person who'll come close enough to me I'm sorry your hurting I'm sorry you hurt me Walked into your room and threatened your life While you sat there at your computer Crying in only your underwear What does it mean? Does it even matter? Do I have to pretend that it does? Someone calls but it's the wrong number She says "Hello" with so much love in her voice I think that sometimes we misplace our love.

On the days when the weather is fine It's a mask this place is wearing It's perfume not swearing any truth It's something more real sneaking up on you Dark again, I hear the wind outside I think it's some holy sign I pretend there is worth in the wind I wipe the handle and walk right on in There's a dome with a field of grass inside I sit alone in that place now With a phone and an old attitude And bite the teeth that bite the teeth that bite
9.
I never asked for the rain to fall down on me No request, but you gift me Skin so slick like I've been working hard I have. I never asked for your house to burn down on you No curse, but you're burnt too Eyes so black like you've been beat down hard You have. Dumb luck in the hands of a kid with a bat Swinging hard, but you miss me Little god with his eyes on the giant ball It dies.
