Lyrics: Tired of my tired little poster child life This can only end in 9 to 5 Forty five The kids are growin up so soon Look left and right When I cross the street Sometimes I just wanna let the car hit me At least It would be something new Yeah I wanna fight the man I wanna hurt someone with you Oh I wanna burn the flag I wanna flip the bird with you Woah I’m yelling at my dad I’m getting on the local news My life is better bad When I’m a loser with you A loser with you You look like you lost every fight in middle school And that’s okay I’m into guys who barely survived the eighth grade Let’s watch Yu Gi Oh And stop paying rent They can drag my body from this apartment I’m never gonna work again Yeah I wanna fight the man I wanna hurt someone with you Oh I wanna burn the flag I wanna flip the bird with you Woah I’m yelling at my dad I’m getting on the local news My life is better bad When I’m a loser with you A loser with you Trash your place and wreck your fucking car Taking you out tonight We’re gonna see all the stars I like how you smell of stale coffee and ash Let’s leave this nice little town I never wanna come back Never gonna come back Never gonna come back No No No Because I wanna fight the man I wanna hurt someone with you Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah I wanna burn the flag I wanna flip the bird with you (Ohh) I’m yelling at my dad I’m getting on the local news My life is better bad When I’m a loser with you A loser with you

Guilty 03:21
Lyrics: Take me out of here I’m falling down I can’t come round No more Take me out of here I’ll do my time I’ll make it right Got something to pay for Hidden in every little shadow In every single space Between my thoughts Guilty but they hung the jury Guilty but the judge is dead Guilty but they hung the jury Standing in the corner Waiting for a ghost to reappear Tell you I’m afraid Tell you anything but what I fear Hidden in every little shadow Like a coward I run and I run and I run Guilty but they hung the jury Guilty but the judge is dead And I think all the time about it I think all the time Wasting my life around it Trying to hide Trying to hide (Hide) Yes I’m guilty but they hung the jury Yes I’m guilty but the judge is dead

lyrics: You took a nice girl You took a sweet girl You made me into something new All cut up and broken just like you You made me wicked yes you did now You made me like this yes you did now I’m not the same girl And you can’t have my world You made me into something new All cut up and broken just like you You made me wicked yes you did now You made me like this yes you did now I’ll give you a silent goodbye Before I slip into the night I don’t feel bad at all You always knew that we would fall You made me into something new But I don’t want to be like you You made me wicked yes you did yes you did You made me like this yes you did yes you did

Alone 02:31
lyrics: Not mad anymore I’m just tired Not sad anymore I’m just numb Vaseline and gasoline Burning up my loyalty Into the fire While I’m still young I think you’d all be better off without me I think that I’d be better off alone Sleep to make the day go by Watch the sunset turn to night All I wanna do is come on home Wasting time I’m paralyzed Waste of space I apologize Forget what I’ve said It’s all meaningless My words are stupid so empty so rotten so dumb I should just keep quiet and silent and still Bothering no one

Plainsight 04:44
Lyrics: Do you know that I follow you After school I’m on the move No one wants you like I do I’ve seen everything that you’ve been through Do you know that you’re being watched Do you hear my footsteps Echo down your block Right in plain sight Biding my time Right in plain sight But you pass me by, never realize Right in plain sight Tonight I’m gonna take what’s mine Part of me likes to keep Hidden quiet from a distance I can create my own image Of your innocence Like a religion Worship that perfection Till I can’t wait to transgress it Then your purity turns wretched Beauty ended all too soon Part of me likes anticipatin and waitin Exhilarating Closer and closer yet you still have no clue That I’m that I’m coming for youuuuu You should feel real lucky too After all I chose you Don’t you break my heart in two Don’t you leave me black and blue All good things come to an end So I stay away as long as I can Right in plain sight Waiting for the time to arrive Oh tonight oh tonight oh tonight I hope you sleep tight I hope you’ve turned down the lights I hope it feels right I hope you’re everything I Fantasized

Lyrics: Condemn me Consecrate me Forgive my sins Repulse me Indulge me Sweet retribution Empty promises I have got a fix Like to make myself sick Someone help me Ooh Someone help me Soon Correct me Resurrect me Prove your devotion Purify me Sacrifice me Anointed in ruin White dress and a scarlet letter That girl thinks she’s gonna get better It is much too late for you Someone stop me Ooh Someone stop me Soon Everything I touch Becomes undone I always lose Left in the dust It’s never enough to be consumed (Ohh) to be consumed By you By you Regret me Forget me It’s for the best I’m hopeless I’m helpless In sacrilege

Laceration 03:34
Lyrics: Lacerated I’m Fascinated by The wounds that never seem to heal Intoxicated I’m Frustrated by The pretty things they’re never real Bent and broken Left with open Sores Spoiled rotten Left me Begging for more I’m like a dog when you throw a bone All I am to you is something to own If it’s a sin then throw your stones Give me another bruise that I can show And once you’ve got me When I’m bleeding too much It can really be deadly Go on and stitch me up Yeah once you’ve caught me When my life is in your clutch Show a bit of mercy Before your final touch Blind and achin’ Crawling on the floor Come on I’m waitin’ for you to Hurt me some more I’m like a thorn upon your crown I’m like the dirt under the ground What you’re tryin’ to do is keep me buried now Don’t you know the truth comes out You cut me down Ohhhhhh You cut me down I’ve never needed a reason To burn before Ooooh I’ve never wanted anything more Want you to cut me down Ohhhhh want you to cut me down Take it out on me Animosity All your loathing And suffering Hostility You disgust me Want you to cut me down

Lyrics: Sitting in your busted up car Top down Flying eighty cross the boulevard Unafraid Of the city I wanna be your star Your everything I wanna be your star The air that you breathe Touching my hair The wind goes by Got that look again Fire in those eyes I could die Here by your side I’m singing with Marilyn on the radio I’m calling your name but I don’t think you know Let’s live like this forever On the edge together Never let me go I wanna be your star Your everything Say that I’m the only one The only one that you need Loose cigarettes Trusty jeans That’s the kind of life That you wanna lead On the road Just doesn’t get old I come along From the nine to five We play pretend I’m Bonnie you’re Clyde Let’s go Far away from home I’m dancing to jazz again on the stereo I’m reaching out for you but I don’t think you know We’ll live like this forever Getting lost together Just never let me go I wanna be your star Ooh Your everything Let me be your star Ooh I wanna be The air that you breathe Darling

April 03:32
Lyrics: Butterflies in my chest Sky-high inside my head What do I say What can I say next To make you wanna stay To pique your interest Yeah I feel so stupid Every single time You’re by my side I catch your eye My mouth goes dry I look just like I wanna die I can’t Handle it No I don’t know how to Talk to you To make you wanna Want me too Can’t figure out The next move That gets you to Understand Why I’m such a wreck Can’t you make it easy for me See what I see Can’t you make it easy for me I’ve tried everything Oooh I really wish I didn’t have to feel this way Oooh I never would’ve asked for this kind of pain So can’t you make it easy for me See what I see Oh can’t you make it easy for me I’m tired of waiting Oh yeah every night I can’t deny I picture you in moonlight Just like it’s in real life I take your hand in mine And think one day I’ll be this brave It’s just hard to find A reason why You’d ever wanna waste your time On someone like me I can’t even breathe Yes you take Take my breath away

Lyrics: I don’t want love It’s not good enough Just let me be numb Till the morning comes Sick of the pain Dying for a rush Enter my veins Poison my blood Won’t think anymore I’m a prisoner From this day forth Trying to endure Into the night Repeat when it’s over I just need release Something to forget myself I just need relief Forget everything else You’re a tool for use and I’m broken Leave me empty inside Cut me open There’s no need to talk Nor to listen No one cares what I say They won’t miss it I just need release Something to forget myself I just need relief Forget everything else I just need release Something to forget myself I just need relief Forget everything else It’s a fun little game to play When I’m bored Ooh At the end of the day Nothing more Time starts to fade So does my face All that remains Will be replaced I just need release Something to forget myself I just need relief Forget everything else I just need release Something to forget myself I just need relief Forget everything else I just need relief Something to forget myself

Lyrics: Running from the hills Trynna find myself Lost in the weeds Sick of our paper cut hell Dying from above From your poison touch Kiss me again and I’ll run and I’ll run and I’ll run and I’ll run You’ll never see me fall I’m flying away Watch me go Your love is just pain You hurt me most Are you mad again Running from the hills Searching for the answer Bleeding apart my heart Is a shade of blue That you never knew The colors in your brain Are the same tint of black And grey I’m flying away Watch me go Your love is just pain You hurt me so Dying from above From your poison touch Running from the hills Trynna find myself Your affection is bullshit You can burn you can burn you can burn up in hell Yeah I’m running from the hills Won’t sacrifice myself Killed me for kicks Gaze upon the damage You can burn up and burn up in hell I’m falling away Watch me go Our love was just pain But it taught me to keep myself hollow I’m hiding away Where I don’t know Burn up in hell I’ll meet you down there one day anyhow anyhow somehow Oh I’m running from the hills I was never your fallen angel Flying away and away Till your face is replaced and you’re nothing You’re nothing at all You’re nothing at all You’re nothing at all You’re nothing
