GONER 03:04
GONER Let me die. Let me die and be done with this before i change my mind and I'm sorry...I can't wait. I'd rather just spray the walls at the back of my head. And no, I don't care. I'd rather you just forget me now. Don't waste your memories. I just can't be here anymore. everyone that i've ever loved i've failed. everything that i touch just turns to shit. I never could change a fucking thing, I swear... what i mean to say is that i'm a gone gone goner. I hear the sirens call my name. Too many tears that i had to make. Just leave me where i lay. "I'd rather burnout than fade away" Too many hellhounds on my trail. just let me die. just let me go. Let me die. Let me die and be done with this before i change my mind and I'm sorry I can't wait I'd rather just spray the walls at the back of my head. Idon'tfuckingcareIdontfuckingcareIdontfuckingcareIdontfuckingcare Dear anyone that I've ever loved, I've let you down. Dear anyone who ever needed me, I've let you down. Dear anyone who ever thought i could change, I've let you down. Dear anyone who'll ever read this note, I've always let you down.

FAITH IS SHIT You said that it would be best if we left it up to god I said you see this glass, this empty heart, they'll never be thawed. All hell is is all right now and i've never felt more at home. So fill this up my lonely cup that never has or will be enough. Don't save me. You said that you could be saved if you let him in your heart I shrugged and said I could never tell heaven and hell apart. You asked what happens at the end of our life I said hell is a hangover and heaven is an endless black night. Don't save me. So save your worthless prayers. For yourself. For yourself. For yourself. Don't save me. Your faith in faith is shit. you'd rather spend your whole life down on your knees. I'd rather spend it forgetting it all. It's all the same to me.

OLD BONES 01:58
OLD BONES I've ground them down to dust and scattered them to the wind. I'll keep burying them so that I can pretend that I won't come home to find them screaming in my closet of how much I've sinned. goddamn these old bones goddamn these old bones feelings of regret, piling up too much debt waiting for death like a blessed sunset. I've said this time "I'm prepared for hell" I've said this time "I want no farewells" I've said this time "I've already resign" I'm out of time. goddamn these old bones goddamn these old bones feelings of regret, piling up too much debt waiting for death like a blessed sunset. Time is at our heels collecting those debts of what we learn to accept and what to never forget. I've wasted my whole life trying to forgive myself so here's to you, my crown of shit. We claw and tear for another breath but it's hard to breathe when there's nothing left. I've spent my whole life trying to forgive myself so here's to you, my crown of shit.

ROT 01:46
ROT It's best you know about all this now. It's best you know why i couldn't tell you. It's best you know why i'm so cold. It's best you know... Why? I don't know. Ready to rot. Ready to rot. Ready to rot inside the fucking ground. It's best you know about all this now. It's best you know why i couldn't tell you. It's best you know why i'm so cold. It's best you know... Why? I don't know. Ready to rot. Ready to rot. Ready to rot inside the fucking ground. I never cared whether i woke up to see anything ever again. I never cared if I meant something to you, to me or anyone else. I should I have done it sooner. pulled the trigger this same time last year. At least I wouldn't have been a burden to you, to me or anyone else.

MAY DAY 04:04
MAYDAY I've hit rock bottom again and i don't wanna call for help. I've been clawing at these walls, With nooses around my neck. I've folded all my cards. May Day. I'm burning wicks at both ends. May Day. it's true i'm coming undone. May Day. I need these shovel wings to get me to that coffin Red night terrors and god, I smile at this all too often. I'm crashing down bursting in flames. May Day. I need a touch of mercy you say. May Day. I'm checking out. May Day

WRAITHS 03:59
WRAITHS Keep your hatchets close and your wraiths closer. give no quarter. light my way in black. No one shall inherit the earth. Never forgive. I've always believed in vengeance. too much is never enough. I'll carry out that sentence with a different kind of love. No one shall inherit the earth. Vengeance guide my hand. Vengeance give me strength. Vengeance mother of god, take me to the brink. Vengeance, let the blood run, let it fill the sea Vengeance, turn the knife on me. Then I'll finally be free.

GIVE UP 02:30
GIVE UP In your loneliest night where you crawled and screamed and you ran out of friends to blame Where you drank yourself through those sorry years, and being dead by thirty was your only aim. In your loneliest night where you already knew that you were meant to lose Where were those easy words? You threw in the towel and were finally through. I give up. I give up. I'm tired of fighting wars I just can't win. I give up. I give up. I'm tired of fighting wars I just can't win. In your loneliest night when your father died and how the thought still breaks your heart Where you tried to forgive the world but you knew your knives, they would never starve. In your loneliest night when you realized that, that your heart was finally hung, where were those easy words? where you closed your eyes and we're finally done. I give up. I give up. I'm tired of fighting wars that I just can't win. I give up. I give up. I'm tired of fighting wars that I just can't win. You just can't fucking win. I give up.

TRAUMA 02:31
IM A FUCKING MESS.
9.
BASTARD TEARS I'm on the run again. From myself and an avalanche making for the hills from a surrendered past. A haunted face looking in the mirror waking from heartache and a familiar fear of Borrowed time being paid by fools, where I keep my eyes closed no matter how cruel. Our lives crashing down all around our ears. Like the dreams and hopes that seemed so near. I think I might just be dreaming again. Waiting to fade away, waiting for the end. I think I'm always drinking too much, when what I hold against everyone is a coward's grudge. I'm on the run. I miss my father from time to time. I know it's fucked but at least it's mine. I'm on the run. From all the love that I'll never know. So I'll stay here in heaven below. I'm on the run.

HARM 02:08
HARM I'll bear it all. I don't believe in much of anything anymore. I'll bear it all. Not that there is much anymore to believe in anyways. It's always worse after midnight no rest in sleep, no rest in life. Let's end this before it end us all. hopeless hands reaching for the sky before going head first into a stillborn sea like the rest of you, like the rest of me. I don't believe in much of anything anymore. I'll bear it all. Not that there is much anymore to believe in anyways It's always worse come daylight No hands to hold so alone we get old Let's end this before it end us all. I'll bear it all. To dream of bleak grey shores, endless rolling waves. crashing. silently. nothing else to hear, or see or know. Grief upon grief. My cup runneth over.
