First they come for your borders Gonna build you new walls, ‘till you can’t make your rent Now you’ve swallowed their orders They’ll clean you out like you were probably meant To be sent--back to the room you’ll afford I know it takes a lot to pillage these days If there’s anyone left they will never be safe Said you just kind of gave up No description for skill, that you can’t even sell If they came back to save us Would you recognize hands at the top of the shelf If you help--you’re not helping yourself You see a tunnel--I see a hole;You see progress--I hope you’re getting full

Drinking bourbon with a candle and the lights out: how fucking melodramatic. This ain't a movie, it's your life so put the shit down and make it right Pick an old scab start a new fight we're at an impasse and we don't know why Seek validation on the outside can't see the forest for the trees This house is sinking sand and gravel I feel it slipping as it unravels Maybe it's common- this undulation there's nothing flawless so just breathe.

I can’t make excuses anymore If you don’t even use them, what are they for? I don’t know if there are words I’d say When I smashed out every light Everyone is going separate ways Did it really change your life? Did it ever change your life? I can’t tell the difference anymore If I can’t, maybe you can, if you’re keeping score

Milius 03:05
Leave it rotting on the sill if we don't touch it, no one will There is no one else We don't mean to don these clothes for with uniforms come rules. Wear the title but leave everything you never wanted. (Chorus) They took it all away, before it had gone wrong They took it all away, it hadn’t even been that long I tried to put it back, but they took all of the pieces, took all of the context I tried to put it back Imagination of constraint to be things we know we ain't- It's all fog: opaque but passable Take a breath and take some time if there's too much on your mind Leave some loveliness to take along and spread about you

This is not a dream, this is not a dream (You won’t be saved by anyone) This is not what you’ve been waiting for (You won’t be saved by anyone) Call it for no one, call it attraction (You won’t be saved by anyone) You’re seeing what is actually occurring...for the purpose of Got a message for you, and you’re not gonna like it Got a message for you, you can pray for it Talk numbers, like it’s something you made up ‘Cause all of this it ends for good Keep it locked away, like you already managed (You won’t be saved by anyone) Keep it from those you’ve been waiting for (You won’t be saved by anyone) Say it has substance, and direction (You won't’ be saved by anyone) You’re seeing what is actually occurring...for the purpose of

Amigos II 02:47
We were too young to give a shit smoking, drinking, taking hits We'd trade our innocence for anything to make us feel free You started first, got out of hand it's never something that we plan You moved away and we lost touch but we were still the same friends I don't remember where I was, but I know I wasn't there. Would you be gone if we'd been there? Or you'd been here? What would have happened? When you came back you were a mess drunk and at your self-destructive best lost you into the night didn't know if you'd find your way home I didn't know how to relate to you when you were in so deep I was scared of you I wanted things to just be normal

One Of Us 02:57
You said it’d never get better Drowning yourself to get away Down to the basement where you’ll never see it, never hear it coming Not before you can say Break off the keys in my heart Turn down the lights & draw the shades Take back everything you sold them There’s no more reasons to stay There’s no advantage to let anyone, anyone know you Maybe it’s better this way

Errata 06:22
There was no time for you Priorities all over, so much to do... I was afraid of you Brain muddied, body rotting, my heart askew There was no rhyme or reason for what I put you through there was no righteousness but self- The bottles piled up and the pile grew there was no time for you.

Honest Labor 02:49
Tributary Stop fucking with the door what did you expect to hear? Estuary What were you listening for? Could you just sit? Could you just sit? Could you just sit? Could you just I can't make you what you want but I can help you to carry the weight Shot for show, motionless Honest labor's gone away Transfixed On another plane In the corner for 22 days If you saw them and he wouldn't listen would you stop him? would you stop him? would you stop him? would you
