1. Giftwrap
No regrets from the outside
Or safe bets to make
A package with a new name
A safe bet on the side
You tell me I don't belong
The truth might be wrong
You pretend I don't exist
Well pretend you don't hear this
I've got a bomb in my backpack
I've got a shoebox full of snakes
Checks in the mail
Yeah fuck you, fuck you
Checks in the mail
Fuck you
You tell me I don't belong
The truth might be wrong
You pretend I don't exist
Well pretend you don't hear this
I've got a bomb in my backpack
I've got a shoebox full of snakes
Checks in the mail
Yeah fuck you, fuck you
Checks in the mail
Fuck you
2. Sorry
Flies on my face
Don't have the strength to make them stay
My head's explodin'
Feels like the brakes are givin'
I know that I said forever
I didn't mean forever
I'm sorry, I blew it
Cold fingertips
Don't have the touch they used to
A knife for your heart
It's time for everything to come around
I know that I said forever
I didn't mean forever
I'm sorry, I blew it
I'm so sorry, I apologize
Flies on my face
Don't have the strength to make them stay
My head's explodin'
it's time for everything to come around
I know that I said forever
I didn't mean forever
I'm sorry, I blew it
I'm so sorry, I apologize
3. The System
You don't conform,
You contort
You distort
Everything you don't reply,
You rely on everyone
To set it up
You just reject,
You dissect the ideas
'Cuz it's ideal
You don't conform,
You contort
You distort
Everyone and everything
Breakin' away
From the system
You don't relate,
You just hate
To bear the weight
You don't reply,
You rely
On everyone to set it up
You don't conform,
You deform
You contort everything
You don't conform,
You just distort
Breakin' away
From the system
Reject the system,
Dissect the system
Reject the system,
Dissect everything
You don't conform,
You contort
You distort everything
You don't reply,
You rely
On everyone to set it up
Breakin' away
From the system
4. Mother Loves You
Lock your doors
And restrain your whore, man
I'm comin' for you
With my meat in my hand,
Mother is this your impression of me?
Mother loves you
But she sees the world in green
Yeah, here's the truth,
Not a dime to my name
I guess I'm a waste
But got my sights
Set on that son of yours
That turkey boy comes my way
He's gonna baste
Mother loves you
But she sees the world in green
Mother loves you
But she sees the world in green
Why can't you see?
Can't you see?
That you're colorblind
Colorblind
5. 8 Beers & A Book On Zen
Well it gives me the runaround
And I don't wanna fight
I got the sense to turn around
You ain't wrapped too tight
I might need a tourniquet
To keep the wounds in check
I might need an extra set of eyes
To keep you in check
I drink the backwash
>From the sewer now and then
I ain't got time to help us both
Help yourself
I ain't got the time
Now the ship has run aground
And there's no help in sight
I got the sense to turn around
I can't win this fight
I might need a tourniquet
To keep the wounds in check
I might need an extra set of eyes
To keep you in check
I drink the backwash
From the sewer now and then
I ain't got time to help us both
Help yourself
I ain't got the time
6. Divided
You fall
I end up in the middle
You call
I end up losin' sleep
I need this in case I derail one day
I need this in case I derail one day
Until the weather clears
We'll remain divided
You stall
I end up losin' time
You crawl
I end up on my knees
I need this in case I derail one day
I need this in case I derail one day
Until the weather clears
We'll remain divided
I need this in case I derail one day
I need this in case I derail one day
Like I need this
Until the weather clears
We'll remain divided
7. Wasted Time
You only know me by my name
But that's ok
It's through the flesh, inside the bone
Just past my soul
Now it's cold
I might never see the sun
Getting older
Look at all this wasted time
I only know you by your name
But that's ok
This mental weight
Can pull us down
It works us both
Now it's cold
I might never see the sun
Getting older
Look at all this wasted time
Well it all burns down
As time flies by
And we're gone
Yeah we're gone
Now it's cold
I might never see the sun
Getting older
Look at all this wasted time
8. Laugh
I'd fake it all, to work it in
I'd climb a wall, to watch you hang
I'd build a plank, so you could walk it
Let's cut the shit, I've heard you talk it
Calculated,
Like a killer razor sharp,
A guillotine I'd lose the smile,
Since you just fake it
You've got the chance,
Now you should take it
Ha! ha! You wanna laugh
Ha! ha! I'll show you somethin'
Ha! ha! You wanna joke
Ha! ha! I'll watch you choke!
I'd sell it all,
Without regret and climb a wall,
To watch you hang I'd build a plank,
So you could walk it
Let's cut the shit,
I've heard you talk it
Ha! ha! You wanna laugh
Ha! ha! I'll show you somethin'
Ha! ha! You wanna joke
Ha! ha! I'll watch you choke!
You laugh at my friends
You laugh at my plans
You laugh in my face
You laugh behind my back
You laugh at everything i stand for
But I don't see you laughin' now
I don't hear you laughin' now
Who's laughin' now, bitch?
Ha! ha! You wanna laugh
Ha! ha! I'll show you somethin'
Ha! ha! You wanna joke
Ha! ha! I'll watch you choke!
9. Die, Ricky, Die
Something makes me want
To pick up a plastic bag
And put it over my head
No wait a minute
I wanna put it over your head
I should stop thinking this way
Something makes me want
To pray that you kill yourself
I should stop thinking these thoughts
No wait a minute
I wanna fuck you first
And give you one last kiss
I should stop thinking these thoughts
Die Ricky
Die Ricky
Something makes me want
To douse you with gasoline
I should stop thinking this way
No wait a minute
I should stop holding things
Over your head
I can't stop thinking this way
Die Ricky
Die Ricky
10. W.B.P.M.
I never cry
I choose suicide
But before I do
Look at me
Just look at me
Look at me
I'm a macho motherfucker
You know your place, bitch
Or maybe you prefer
A fist before i give it to ya...
Look at me
I'm a macho motherfucker
I'm a macho motherfucker
11. Everyman
Born to be used
Like a rat in a lab
Bred like a stud
But without any soul
Pick up the sword
And throw away the halo
Live like a sheep
But without any shame
Killed in the Frey
Every man for himself
Pick up the sword
And throw away the halo
12. A Bullet For Cinderella
You're on your way
So take me back, take me back
The enemy is callin' again
Now flush him out!
The way to defeat it
Lock and load
The way to defeat it
Just unload
What do you say?
When they call you out, call you out
The enemy is claimin'
To be what he is not!
The way to defeat it
Lock and load
The way to defeat it
Just unload
Who would claim?
To be that which he is not?
Why would you claim to be?
somethin' you're not?
To defeat it
Lock and load
To defeat it
Just unload
13. Bottom Of The Glass
There you are 500 miles from home
In a hotel room sacked outta your mind
And hopin' that you'll never be found
You just don't wanna be found
There you are downtown Cincinnati
In some strange girl's room
She's out cold and you're outta the cold
For now
But just for now
One more time to get it right
One more time to get it right
They stretch you and scrape you
From the bottom of the glass
There you are an ocean away
In a hotel room scared outta your mind
And hopin' that you'll never be saved
You just don't wanna be saved
There you are in the middle of nowhere
Askin' yourself why ask yourself why
One more time to get it right
One more time to get it right
They stretch you and scrape you
From the bottom of the glass
There you are 5,000 miles from home
In another hotel room
Gacked outta your mind
And hopin' that you'll never be found
Never wanna be found never be found
One more time to get it right
One more time to get it right
They stretch you and scrape you
From the bottom of the glass
Get it right
Get it right
You fuck up
Get it right
