It's no ones fault The lines come loose Some days end in bad news Some bad times Hold bitter truths Caution is boring We came for blood Caution is boring We came for blood If you die when no one's watching Was it even worth your time I'd like to say We wish you well But safety doesn't really sell We came to feel alive Was the ticket worth the ride Caution is boring We came for blood Caution is boring We came for blood If you die when no ones watching Was it even worth your time Give us everything Everything you've got Give us everything Everything you've got Give us everything Give us everything Everything you've got Everything you've got It's no ones fault The lines come loose Some days end in bad news Some bad times hold bitter truths Its not the talent Its the risk for me Caution is boring We came for blood

Runner 03:25
It's not enough to see where you're going  Oh no! You've gotta be miles ahead And the road never ends It'll go on forever And you Well you You'll run till you're dead I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying  To clear my head Ghosts keep coming  Keep running  I should start charging rent  Well that's living  And it's exhausting  What space you still had left It's not much Just something to leave When there's nothing left I'm trying  I'm trying  There's nothing left It's not enough to see where you're going  Oh no! You've gotta be miles ahead And the road  Never ends It'll go on forever And you Well You'll just run till you're dead Just a steady decline  Keeping the pace Losing your mind  The struggle is nothing If you can't leave All that past behind  A trail of dead ends You'll never  Ever Want to see again You'll never see them again  Just a steady decline  Keeping the pace Losing your mind  The struggle is nothing If you can't leave All that past behind  A trail of dead ends You'll never  Ever Want to see again They'll never see you again  Its not enough to see where you're going  Oh no  You've gotta be miles ahead And the road never ends It'll go Go on for ever And you Well you You'll run till you're dead

Therapy 04:09
Time drains the meaning Let it work Walk it down That sunk cost Really turned your life around Keep it moving There's nowhere else to go Keep it moving There's nowhere else to go We're not getting it back We're Not getting it back We're Not letting it back in We're not getting it back Time drains the meaning Let It work Time drains the meaning let it work Is it worth less Count the days Until they end We're not getting any older We're not getting any better We're not getting any older We're not getting any better Time drains the meaning Let it work Devalue your time Until it's spent Throw it in a pit Then kick yourself to death Keep it moving There's nowhere else to go Keep it moving There's nowhere else to go We're not getting it back Not getting it back Not letting it back in We're not getting it back Time drains the meaning Let It work Time drains the meaning Let it work

Teal 04:35
Birch beige and marked across all surface I thought by now I'd have learned Where to hang my hopes Where to lay my head Where to hang my hopes Where to lay my head I thought by now id have learned I thought by now id have learned Yeah I thought by now i'd have learned I should be driving I should be paying attention I should be driving I should be paying attention I should be driving I should be paying attention Still pressed against cold asphalt Waiting for the wheels to stop Put down the hope Focus on the road Put down the hope Focus on the road I should be driving I should be paying attention I should be driving I should be paying attention I should be driving I should be paying attention My eyes can't see me, can't read the lines Around my mouth, throughout my spine The furrows The dips in me The furrows The dips in me Can't accept that this might just be what it is And can't that be lovely Can't that be lovely Cant that be lovely I should be driving I should be paying attention I should be driving I should be paying attention I should be driving I should be paying attention

Sucker 02:37
Hey What is it now Yeah what do you need I can read your face I can hear you breathe What's the problem You wanna speak Well come on now Just tell me Well what about me Well what about me Well what about me Hey what about me Give me a second A minute to breath The air so heavy It's too thick to see It's not what I want And It's nothing I need The air is so heavy Its too thick to breath Well what about me Yeah what about me Well what about me Well what about me Hey give me a minute Well what about me Hey give me a minute Well what about me Hey give me a minute Well what about me Hey give me a minute Well what about me

...Thanks 02:06
These are the days you wish never happened The voices you’d rather forget. Some folks kick up so much dust You’ll lose sight of where they end It was another mild winter But I’m not sure what that means any more We are imposters We are moving with all the grace of an icepick I don't need you to believe me What's written is true I’ve been growing this backbone I’ve stacked it to the ceiling It towers above me With a joy of lifeless movement Towers above me with a joy of lifeless movement These are the days you wish never happened These are the days you wish never happened

Small Talk 03:15
How can you trust yourself And what do you make of the cracks in the shell The spots in your vision The lies that you tell It's all gonna be ok It's all gonna be ok It's not you today Your not afraid Break your neck to look away Break your neck to look away Break your neck to look away Break your neck to look away Can't see yourself You're just waiting for someone else To make your decisions To buy what they sell It's all gonna be ok It's all gonna be ok That's all you can say It's not you today Break your neck to look away Break your neck to look away Break your neck to look away Break your neck to look away It's coming for you now Coming for you now And you're not making it out It's coming for you now Coming for you now And you're not making it out

Yikes 03:16
Bash your head against my hands Till I can feel the sinew I'll pull out miserable fist fulls Throw them in the rearview Falling to your knees Cuz your legs whont even hold you I'll hold your head up to my ear So i can hear the ocean Look Take a good look Until it almost kills you Until the light pours out your mouth And burns away what binds you Look Take a good look Until it almost kills you Until the light pours out your mouth And burns away what binds you Do you think it'll get better If you stop your reeling Your eyes will roll Right out your head And show you what youre missing Look Look Look Look Take a good look Until it almost kills you Until the light pours out your mouth And burns away what binds you Look Yeah look at it Until it almost kills you Until the light pours out your mouth And burns away what binds you Until the light pours out your mouth and burns away what binds you Until the skin crawls off your back And finally leaves you

Hush 02:48
Close your eyes and breath It'll change tomorrow Time will always leave you With something to hold on to It's not always what you need But you'll survive the ride Won't always like where you'll be But it's good enough to guide you Close your eyes and breath It'll change tomorrow Time will always leave you With something to hold on to With something to hold on to
