1. HANG 'EM HIGH

This is life in a car crash
This is life in a car crash
Can we make it out alive

He finds himself
He's lost in
The breath between life and drowning

Cauterize
These open wounds
The burning flesh the smell
Of these past 5 years.
Paralyzed
With no will to move
The killing grounds the stakes
Of these past 5 years, these past 5 years.

And it's more than just a loss
But it's over
We're not singing mournful thoughts
And it's over
And I can't wait (can't wait)
Until we give it all away.
We're giving up our lives
For this revolution
For this revolution, this revolution

Realize
The broken glass
The caution tape the cries
Are just parting ties with the times you spent alone
We have been left to make it alone
Running through these flooded hallways
Can we make it out alive?

And it's more than just a loss
But it's over
We're not singing mournful thoughts
And it's over
And I can't wait (can't wait)
Until we give it all away.
We're giving up our lives
For this revolution

These open wounds
Still burn
This broken glass
Has left me so
So individual
We're so individual
So individual
In time
This is life in a car crash.

And it's more than just a loss
But it's over
We're not singing mournful thoughts
And it's over
And I can't wait (can't wait)
Until we give it all away.
(Can't wait) we're giving up our lives
For the this revolution

And it's more than just a loss
But it's over
We're not singing mournful thoughts
And it's over
And I can't wait (can't wait)
Until we give it all away.
We're giving up our lives
For this revolution


2. CONTAGIOUS

So child we have to see this through
The choking has you foaming at the mouth
Our bodies convulsing on the floor
Like a fish out of water
The price of wanting more
Epilepsy seems safe enough for me
It's alright girl, it's alright
Contagious as this seems
Girl, you're catching on to me
Shut down and break away
This is slightly what it's meant to be
The perfect line, the perfect time
When our bodies align
A pale smile struggles behind tears
While passion meets you striking at your face
Instantly we bottle our feelings
So tell me why are you crying
The price for wanting more
But then again it seems
You're safe enough for me
It's alright girl, it's alright
What defines this man


3. THE ANNEXION OF PUERTO RICO

Sounding off in revelations
The end is far past near
Falling fast through a concrete passage
Down, down, down
These questions will
My question will I find her
That kiss so sweet, sweet, sweet
That body lies so gently down
As heaven weeps without her
Do what this beggar pleads and bury me, bury me
Do what this beggar pleads
Do what this beggar pleads and bury me, bury me
She's the one and I'll search forever
Latch onto the souls of these cliffs
Ask the damned to lend a hand
That body lies so gently down
Now heaven weeps without her
Salvation returns as I'm coming undone
Unlock your heart love
And please remind yourself
That breathings not the same
Since I take in air for you
And I'm pulling fucking through


4. THE ART OF SHARING LOVERS

The wolves are coming out tonight
Don't say you heard this coming
The wolves are coming out tonight
Oh boy you best be running
They say they saw her on the street
They said they saw her on her knees
I hear there's been more to offer
Than the skin under her dress

We've been sharing lovers for far too long
This isn't a last goodnight
We'll be sleeping til our bodies have grown cold again
But you're just that suitable

For most to lay their hands upon
But you've made this just so simple
It's just like playing doctor with the dead
They just might say you're the best they ever had

I'm not afraid
I love something once
"Are we fighting for something"
We can't save them all
I can't believe
We've let this one go
"I'm gone"

And I'll be making headlines
If they find the body
As I attempt to erase the past

I'm reliving the moment where true passion
Is moving on
And I respect your dedication

This is the art of sharing lovers
This is the art of sharing lovers

I'm not afraid
I love something once
"Are we fighting for something"
We can't save them all
I can't believe
We've let this one go
"I'm gone"

I have swam in the pools of your past
Through the tides of lies running through your hair
And since I have reached the shore it seems I've been washed clean
Leaving you is purity

I'm not afraid
I love something once
"Are we fighting for something"
We can't save them all
I can't believe
We've let this one go
"I'm gone"


5. THE COLLISION

In motion she swipes past your face
With a blur that bleeds into one
Embellish her with sight and sound
The stylish way to make someone
You love hit the ground
She swept me off my feet this time
Pray, says the needle to the thread
This is the perfect sound
And where we both collide
Pray, says the choir to the symphony
Strike up the sound
That's running through our veins
Like martyrs who take their lives
In the sacrifice for the ones that they love
I'm vulnerable, I'm spread out
And I'm facing the blade
Until our curves melt into one
I have to make these words
Carry after I'm gone
Her pictures line upon the shelf
The portrait smiles back around
Embrace, if I held her up to the light
What would I find out about
Expose, so reveals the secrets
Of my vixen in the scarlet dress
A life comes full circle
I guess we lost the war
They said we'd last forever
When we both collide
In silhouettes they see themselves
Like floating sheets from which they laid
The ghost shape takes form from who we are


6. TRIGGER HAPPY TARANTULA

Violent screams have me buckled down
From the way that it seems
We need a remedy
Embody me and kill this aching emptiness
These are just fantasies
Embalming me
As I sleep

What if you covered the face of the sun
I am just a man what gives me hope
I've shrouded the pain for too long
I'm under the gun
As I take a breath and take the plunge
We expose our fears
As these two cities burn
In the back of my mind
The will to move the will to die

So I guess these tombs are
More suited for the living

Behind the curse reveals a man
And I'm broken down
Is it just possibly
Revealing me
No time to breathe

What if you covered the face of the sun
I am just a man what gives me hope
I've shrouded the pain for too long
I'm under the gun
As I take a breath and take the plunge
We expose our fears
As these two cities burn
In the back of my mind
The will to hope the will to die

What weathers him in the night
And if misery shadows fate
Then I've been caught
Caught living on borrowed time
This is my life
Life on a splintering thread

Open my eyes
And blind this soul
Swing by the sway
Clinched to the thread
This is my life
At the hands of a serrated edge
Open my eyes
And blind this soul
Tear from my mouth
The most violent screams

What if you covered the face of the sun
I am just a man what gives me hope
I've shrouded the pain for too long
I'm under the gun
As I take a breath and take the plunge
We expose our fears
As these two cities burn
In the back of my mind
It's almost time
The will to move
It's almost time
The will to hope
It's almost time
The will to die


7. EAGER CANNIBALS

A savage thought becomes him
By the light shining through her dress
The flesh under his finger nails
The lips upon her chest
And with the night pressing on
She weakens behind his eyes
She urns for him inside her
Collapsing by the bedside

You want more
You got more
Cant be too safe girl
Its alright
Just undress
Her lips and
His caress

Will unveiling the curves of our bodies
(We get along, along so well)
A parasitic feeding
Off of the blood of someone else

Two bodies lie shackled
By the clenching of their fists
One body lie injected
Behind the others head
With the sun pressing on
She weakens behind his eyes
She urns for him inside her
Collapsing by the bedside

You're up boy
don't slow down
With constant temptations
Who said love
Its alright
Will become by the end of the night

Will unveiling the curves of our bodies
(We get along, along so well)
A parasitic feeding
Of off the blood of someone else
Were sharpening the spectrum
Of these feelings
(We get along, along so well)
A puss eating believing we would
Ever share with someone else

I feel you breathing
Behind my neck

Can I still feel you breathing
Behind my neck

Will unveiling the curves of our bodies
(We get along, along so well)
A parasitic feeding
Of off the blood of someone else
Were sharpening the spectrum
Of these feelings
(We get along, along so well)
A puss eating believing we would
Ever share with someone else

We went assaulted bodies
Fell asleep between her legs
Medicate before tomorrow
Is that love? Is that love?


8. LIFE IN A MUSEUM

The scene has retaken shape
It seems your stuck in the middle
The legs of your lover
Have spread for another
You're invaded and coming undone
Retrace, recount, refuse
Become, believe, be well
Impress, impose, embark
Conceal, connect, conquer
You give it all
And sometimes fade away
You give it all
We all just fade
It's not love
We're not love
But I'm not perishing
Cause vengeance holds my hand
To be lost amongst the slaves
Shackled and blistering
Its now lust that holds my hand
Tonight I'll find my way
So now you think this is safe
Oh boy you better be careful
I've never had the chance for
This kind of love
I'm infected and coming undone
Tonight I'll find my way


9. STARE AT THE AIR

It's in the air
For all our guests to stare
Their speech left pacified
With a cowards glare
Is she haunted by a glow
That beauty soft as now
A frantic pounding grabs his heart
The beats mimicked by his thought
To plot against this may be a deadly deed
With a shriek of horror
Fleeing bringing them to their weary knees
A poet crumbles by the alter
A shock from on to bare
The fainting of a man
By the lips under the veil
The reckless become the tragic
Reside night bring light to day
In the wake
Something may never beat the shame in pain


10. STATIC SLUMBER PARTY

Stay and fill me up with something else
You're all that's left and I'll be
Picking up the pieces of our past
Like broken glass
Affection ruptures lonely nights
But I've always been the last in line
For romance
Captive among lonely hearts
Are all we are
Captive behind broken hearts
Are all we are
So lovely can I stay the night
And baby if I said that I'll be back tomorrow
This might be a bit shy from the truth
As lonely as the days that we begin to follow
Somehow we become those walls we build
Somehow we lose the urge to feel
Somehow I've become the lesser man
We become products of ourselves
Slave to despair
Despair to aspire
A real lovers love
The profound beating of this chest
A poetic type of touch
That reminds us who we are
The feeling, the rhyming rhythm
Recalling wounded thoughts
Still seeming a little tempted
To set these sheets aflame
As your eyes close
He finds that it's worth more
As he's slipping out the back door


11. MECHANICAL HEART

Retrace the steps that led
To a cellophane headdress
And they were found asphyxiated
In a pool of tears that follow

Retrace the steps that led
To a cellophane headdress
And they were found asphyxiated
In a pool of tears that follow

Breathe in
Breathe out
Rape this

And so then came discretion (suffering)
And all the secrets of the silent suffering (so they strayed)
And so they stray possession
Murdering the suffer in
The silencing behind our walls

In the script of blood
They state that this is the purpose
And they were found asphyxiated
By all the words that were painted

Keep your children locked up
There's the one they wanted
Will they betray since departed
If its the way we wanted

And so then came discretion (suffering)
And all the secrets of the silent suffering (so they strayed)
And so they stray possession
Murdering the suffer in
The silencing behind our walls

What did we say
Bring us to earth
Please rape our adolescence
Please rape our adolescence
What did you say
Bring me to earth
Please rape my adolescence
Please rape my adolescence

And so then came discretion (suffering)
And all the secrets of the silent suffering (so they strayed)
And so they stray possession
Murdering the suffer in
The silencing behind our walls

So child close your eyes
And rest your head
It bleeds with slumber
So child close your eyes
And rest your head
It bleeds with slumber
So child close your eyes
And rest your head
It bleeds with slumber
So child close your eyes
And rest your head
It bleeds with slumber

So child close your eyes


12. LET GO

Drink up baby down
Are you in or are you out?
Leave your things behind
Because it's all going off without you
Excuse me
Too busy
You're writing your tragedy
These mishaps
You bubble-wrap when
You've no idea when you're like

Let go

So let go
Don't jump in
Oh well, what you waiting for?
And it's alright
Because there's beauty in the breakdown
Let go
So let go
Just get in
Oh, it's so amazing here
And it's all right
Because there's beauty in the breakdown

It gains the more it gives
And then it dances with the fall
So honey back for more
Can't you see that all that stuff's essential?
Such boundless
Pleasure, we've no time for later now
You can't await
You roll your eyes means
You've twenty seconds to comply

Let go

So let go
Don't jump in
Oh well, what you waiting for?
And it's alright
Because there's beauty in the breakdown
Let go
So let go
Just get in
Oh, it's so amazing here
And it's all right
Because there's beauty in the breakdown

When you here
You're here
When you're here
You're here

Drink up baby down
Are you in or are you out?
Can't wait
You roll your eyes
Twenty second to reply

So let go
Just jump in
Oh well, what you waiting for?
And it's alright
Because there's beauty in the breakdown

Let go
So let go
Just get in
Oh, it's so amazing here
And it's all right
Because there's beauty in the breakdown

Let go

So let go
Just jump in
Oh well, what you waiting for?
And it's alright
Because there's beauty in the breakdown
Let go
So let go
Just get in
Oh, it's so amazing here
And it's all right
Because there's beauty in the breakdown
