Three Clicks to Heaven
03:48
|

I’m just three clicks away from Heaven
This last supper will be lead.
There’s a demon on my shoulder
whispering to me
The angel watching me is dead.
I’m watching those hands on the clock
they’re wrapped around the veins in my neck.
The taste of metal sits still on my tongue
any minute now I’ll be gone.
My escapism is keeping me trapped
the walls are closing in.
I’ve jumped out this window a thousand times but I’m still here
chasing my shadow along the floor and it’s looking thin.
The taste of metal sits still on my tongue
any minute now I’ll be gone.

L'eyes We Tell

I felt a loneliness I hadn’t felt in awhile
I guess it’s time, time it is
So funny so sad so disgusting
You can see for yourself
Everyone is so pretty, everyone is so special
Everything is amazing, all the lies we tell
And everyone is so happy, nobody’s ill
Don’t look sad now, you can’t let people know
I felt an emptiness, an old familiar friend
Insignificance comes over me like a warm blanket, suffocate me in my sleep
Best dream I ever had
Everyone is so pretty, everyone is so special
Everything is amazing, all the lies we tell
And everyone is so happy, nobody’s ill
Don’t look sad now, you can’t let people know

Cutter
03:32
|

I feel like an actor
an actor out of work.
Forgetting my lines is just part of my day.
I sit and fantasize
slashing my wrist
just to watch the blood drip.
I wear your hate on my back
It holds me tight
It burns my eyes
Your words are nails
into my skin
into my mind.
Cut me up.
I’ve become everything I hate
and I can’t help but love it.
I can’t help anything anymore.
You’ve become everything I love
And I can’t help but hate it

Nine to nine
Five to five
You cut me up
Just to build me back up
In your own image
Imagine what you could do
With these pieces of me
Work to live
Work till death
I'm not a machine, you fuck
Eyes fixed on screen
Losing all hope
Just another Tuesday
Take myself out of me
Throw that shit out the window
Imagine what you could do
With these pieces of me
Work to live
Work till death
I'm not a machine, you fuck

Liquid Embrace

Wrap your arms around me
put that bullet in my brain
Tell me that you love me,
and I’ll play your little game
My chips are on the table,
and my heart is in your hand
My mind is in the gutter, I’m too drunk to stand
I love you, love me
I love you, love me
You have me living on my knees
I don’t even wear my shoes
You hold me in my dreams
bound in leather soaked in booze
I’ve been losing all my sleep
It’s too much for me to count
I keep finding all my troubles
in my lover’s hands
I love you, love me
I love you, love me

Pain in Love
03:32
|

Show me your love
With the back of your hand
How hard you hit
How much I mean
My dreams are prisoners
In your mind
My heart is just a loser
Addicted to nothingness
The pain in love
My solace is shame
I ask for more
But get less
I need so much
Get no satisfaction
Tighten these chains
Too much freedom scares me
Your grip tightens
But you never touch me
The pain in love
My solace is shame

Jesus Can't Save Me
03:51
|
|||
I’ve practiced all the deadly sins
They say there’s seven,
but I found ten
It takes a lot to do so wrong
But my mother said to do what I know best.
Jesus can’t save me anymore
I’ve been forgiven one too many times.
He said that’s enough
now I’m on my own
I’ve tricked, cheated, and stolen
Forsaken, lusted, and lied
And if I could go back, I’d do it all again
Because life ain’t no fun without sin
Jesus can’t save me anymore
I’ve been forgiven one too many times.
He said that’s enough
now I’m on my own.
