Lost Cause 02:28
LOST CAUSE Give up on that girl With her knees where her eyes should be Surely that bathroom floor’s not that inviting That mouse girl mess with her legs to her chest leaving big black stains on the lace of her dress leaving big black stains down the side of her face She’s a waste of sperm and eggs She’s a lost cause She’s a lost cause She’s a lost cause She’s a lost cause… She’s submissive, dominate her She’s a tool, take your hate out on her It’s all she deserves There’s no love songs here Just sex and empty bottles Livin off: Caffeine and nicotine Ephedrine, adrenaline taurine, amphetamines trying to make your heart beat Xanax and laxatives Hot wax and Vicodin Cocaine and razor blades endorphins seeping through your veins Menthol and alcohol Ginger ale and Aderaal cheap thrills and Chestfields tryin to kill off how it feels Pins pills, exacto knives Dramamine and Lucky Strikes blackouts, strange beds, dime bags Underfed She’s lost her head Underfed She’s lost her head She’s a lost cause She’s a lost cause She’s a lost cause It’s a lost cause to care

I drink just to pass the time I smoke just to pass the time Time i showed up for life But im never satisfied

HOME TO CALL HOME It’s time for a change before we waste away You’re my standby I’m your safe place So we walk together to somewhere where its better Holding on, now more than ever Devote all that i know To grow and move on Devote all that i know All we need is a home to call home Can i keep you Conceal you I could never leave you You're that refuge I return to So we walk together to somewhere where its better holding on, now more than ever Devote all that i know To grow and move on Devote all that i know All we need is a home to call home It takes respect to get respect and I take whatever I can get The man said you need some confidence Devote all that i know To grow and move on Devote all that i know All we need is a home to call home All we needs a home to call home All we needs a home To call home

Gotta Stop 04:05
I'm a trash can casket a toxic waste basket Pile debris into me Never seems to be too late to give a lush liver a break I heard that some succeed This will be the last time except until the next Just like it was last night Can’t pretend it’s not a mess It cuts into the core and twists the blade in more Thought that I’d like it hot It’s gotta stop, gotta stop I struggle white knuckle while my glass world crumbles Though that I’d like it hot It's gotta stop, gotta stop If only we could stay sedated -- obliterated Eyes closed, swept out to sea The light in you has faded You can tame it, you can change it I know cuz you're just like me This will be the last time just like the time before Brains circle the drain Sucked down till they get more It cuts into the core and twists the blade in more Thought that I’d like it hot It’s gotta stop, gotta stop I struggle white knuckle while my glass world crumbles Though that I’d like it hot It's gotta stop, gotta stop If only we could stay sedated -- obliterated Eyes closed, swept out to sea The light in you has faded You can tame it, you can change it I know cuz you're just like me The hardest part is the start You’ve unveiled a fractured heart I’m tearing down that wall to find the source of it all I struggle white knuckle as my glass world crumbles Thought that I’d like it hot It’s gotta stop, gotta stop I struggle white knuckle as my glass world crumbles Thought that I’d like it hot It’s gotta stop, gotta stop It cuts into the core and twists the blade in more Thought that I’d like it hot It’s gotta stop, gotta stop I struggle white knuckle as my glass world crumbles Thought that I’d like it hot It’s gotta stop, gotta stop If only we could stay sedated If only we could stay sedated

Overflow 04:01
OVERFLOW Try to conceive what it was like to be Staring back at my body from the cracks in the ceiling Revealing my history to a man who made me turn away As he measured the weight of the problem in place He wore a look i couldn't face I’d never be the same Does it show so much everyone knows? so much it overflows? Too much to hold or carry home I was kept caged Humiliated on public display They'd take me out just to announce That I would never escape Clawing at straws Up and down off the walls Then you fall and it’s all a black out Defeat’s a phase, conquer your pain Crawl six feet straight back out Does it show so much everyone knows? so much it overflows? Too much to hold or carry home Does it show so much everyone knows? so much it overflows? Too much to hold or carry home What if this happens again What will we do then? Defeat’s a phase Conquer your pain I’d like to see the same I’d like to see the same Does it show so much everyone knows? so much it overflows? Too much to hold or carry home Does it show so much everyone knows? so much it overflows? Too much to hold or carry home
