Iron Nothing Pt. 1
01:48

goin' down the same road
ridin' on the same train
stopin' at the same stops
dealin' with the same delays, over and over
what has my life become?
when i look in the mirror there are little red lines growing from the sides of my eyes

Exactly The Same

the day you left is the day i stayed
i still remember when you drove away
i stared at the empty road and wondered how i'd spend my days
but pretty soon the days turned to weeks
and i spent every week doing nothing at all
and when the weeks turned to months, a year went by before it was even fall
(multiple tracks of mumbling)
if i died tomorrow, would i have wasted my life?
is the whole point of life just to survive?
should you work in misery for months on end, just to build for a future that may never arrive?
day in, day out, i'm drenched in doubt
day out, day in, i'm bathed in sin
old frown, worn down, and thread-bare
don't worry i'm hangin' in there
my baby came home today
asked to see how everything had changed
i didn't have the heart to say
everything around here is exactly the same
as it was when you left last year
i tried to get anywhere but here, but couldn't leave the pier

Anti-Christ
02:01
|

|
you came all this way to see, the face of evil
some days i think i'll see it too
you were probably expecting horns and hooves
i hope i haven't disappointed you
did the sulfur in the smoke make it hard to see?
did serpents circle 'round your chest and make it hard to breathe?
did you think that you would find the anti-christ? x2
will you keep pretending?
to believe that i am somehow less than human?
was there ice upon the ground that made it hard to stand?
was there fire in my handshake? did it hurt your hand?
did you think that you would find the anti-christ?

Almond Trees

almond trees belong in the yard
all of you belongs in my arms
living life takes effort enough
what's the point if you don't have love?
chain us to the planet then leave
(alive and screaming)
leave us just enough rope to dream
(always dreaming)
leave the sky above us, too high
(always out of reach)
give us eyes to look at the sky
(a place we'll only see)
still for all the love i've been shown
i am scared of dying alone
every night i stare at a wall
crying for the fate of us all
i don't want to think about god
his absence or existence at all
every hour wasted on him
is an hour you have not lived
and all i want is to sit in silence with you
(and not need to see)
to see the sky for what it is
(it's not just a place that's empty)
to pass a gravestone and not think about my own
to accept i'll die, and just exist

Rock Bottom

|
i've been working every day and somehow
i'm still broke, and i'm still tired
i'm too tired to do my job most days
that's ok, i'll just get fired
i only had about ten friends this time last year
now i'm down to four
and worst of all despite all this i'm bored
i'm bored
if this a'int rock bottom i don't know what is x2
if i can get lower i swear i'll get there x2
i swear i never used to get this angry
i'd always smile and laugh
i don't wanna think of all the ways i've changed
so i'll just cut this verse in half
if this a'int rock bottom i don't know what is x2
i feel it getting lower and it scares me
i feel it getting lower and i'm scared to death
i'm tired of self-destruction
i'm tired of being angry
i'm tired of being tired
i'm tired of the space around me
i just wanna be well
and it's not your fault that you can't tell
if this a'int rock bottom i'm scared of what is x2
if i can get better i swear i'll get there x2

Iron Nothing Pt. 2
01:32
|
|||
|
the little red lines growing from the sides of my eyes can't stretch anymore
they're touching the center
my hand's always shaking
my legs all feel weak
the little red signs growing out from the roadside all tell me to "stop"
or at least yield to traffic
the ground that's beneath me is broken in half
(((~~~)))
i'm trapped in my head x4
i'm going to bed x4
