I don't want you to feel downx2 but they're building gas chambers in this town and i heard they don't want you around [] and they want your pretty hands bound and they're making weapons from your sound someone else's ocean someone else's pain all of your intentions someone else's gain [] but our underground bunker has been found and they''re making weapons from our sound [[]] [the midwest is for growing crops kansas city's major export is cows we supply the majority of the meat to the majority of the world on the oceans they fish and in coastal towns they wish the wish to be landlocked] [] but they're building gas chambers in this town and i heard they don't want you around but all i want is you around and i don't want you to frown

Hash Oil 02:00
I'm feeling fucking faded "It knows it's simulated!" Does anyone have something I can torch to scare the caveman in me? A program's reassessing "And now he's second guessing" Can anyone spare a drink so I can sink back as a used car salesman? Hash oilx6 It really gets you lifted Where is the back porch here? "How does a doorknob steer?" As if the place I'd run into was not still under some teeth I want to feel that heat "Go ahead, play that beat" Fuck representing when we can get down to the real meat Hash oilx6 It really gets you lifted Hash oilx6 can you really feel me? I'm feeling fucking faded "Yeah, real elevated" Work is just a boogeyman a million miles away but A figure flips a switch "The script says to twitch!" I'm just white noise over hash oil over white noise (hash oil hash oil hash oil...)

Tastes 01:52
Pick your scent you star to lick on your tongue it makes you sick so many choices just take your pick so many tastes it makes you sick you build a fortress for your head all of your treasures stole from the dead you move your lips it's what they said so many tastes sink like lead [it's so cool, it tastes like shit] Pick your scent you star to lick on your tongue it makes you sick so many choices just take your pick so many tastes it makes me sick [] so many tastes, you eat your eyes/arms/legs/ears/tongue/gums

do you want to know what the desert is? pennies from heaven pelting you before you know, you're piled in road signs taking showers with steel wool is your divine a definite answer? in this way the sun is like a serial rapist who is in fact at day your father your tongue so dry it's, it's... blue mother moon comes out swingingx2 and all her babies sing "salvation from salvation from salvation from, etc" and in this way i am taken up in light

Resentiment 03:03
you've got the money you've got the looks you've got the power but i've got the hooks you've got the means you've got the ends you've got the lackies but i've got the friends [resentiment, resentment, as if i'd crawl, as if i'd call, as if i'd fall, i've got it all] you've got the aim you've got the ethos you've got the fame i need no peoples you've got the wolves you've got the sheep you've stole the story but i don't weep [] i ain't got no worries anymore? i need no enemies anymore i need no bad guys knocking at my door

this is just something that happens you push the button you hold the phone you reposition the line is gone it didn't have to end like this again and this is just something that happens you flip a switch you turn the page you burn the book then you burn the mage and this is just something that comes and this is just something that's coming and this is just something that leaves and this is just something that's leaving you lock the door you cut the sleeves you hit the shore then you hide the key it didn't have to be like this again dropping quarters from the window it didn't have to happen like that someone sailed the ocean someone dropped the call someone colonized the tone this is just something that happens you scratch your head you shrug your shoulders you kick the rock you rip the boulders it doesn't have to end like this right now

You're talking with an honesty the door flies like earnestly up You're on fire, this could burn me out I cracklin' fizz and then pop The reptile mind begats the figure just trying to weigh the costs If I were home, I could wrap up in blankets to keep my cold blood hot but here a wind increases southward a fog settles in this aquarium tank Turns out you're also clawing, hungry! to be swim and not sank If only it could be lived still If only it could slow down If only it could be lived still If only it could come back (rattle rattle) So tell me sister, were they winding across the wipers and the street You grab the grains and boil some water i'll do my best to hold the leak And then still talking like shamans who've lost the virtue of being discreet Please let me be here to die in this moment I find the ocean from the creek If only it could be lived still If only it could slow down If only it could be lived still If only it could come back (rattle rattle)
