> Have you seen the living
Tired of their own shells All the non-believers Torso in the well Am I the one you're after The novice made to find stray abberation stalking Plans that forgot me 99 times The only thing to alter Stands in the way of you I want your cramps To fit the fillings of my teeth Have you seen the living Tired of their own shells All the non-believers Torso in the well And don't you try and ask me Your expiration date The plans that forgot me 99 times You'll be the one who opens the gate Carry water in a basket Where the hole was dug the first time The head that carries the body A blood that flows through veins Have you seen the living Tired of their own shells All the non-believers Torso in the well When it calls I'll answer Do you need to repent Plans that forgot me 99 times I'll stick around for 99 times The fault lines you prepare have darkened Blank rings instead of sight Goliath are you receiving Dismembered you've arrived Have you seen the living Tired of their own shells All the non-believers Torso in the well. |

I shoulda known you'd always scratch that itch When you asked me for safe passage on my shoulders where we slid And just before you laid dead weight upon its shores I stung you in the face for that's the nature of my core Because I got distance don't let it close Gotta let me know You've just gotta let me know Because Forget which way is out now Gotta let me know You've just gotta let me know I'm nowhere near this place you wear It's unforgivable it knows that I am visible I'm broken mirrors and useless prayer This lock is healing me you know you came so willingly Waiting is a vessel that will take me to Love it knows no order when you taste the truth Because I'm trapped in this cement husk Gotta let me go You've just gotta let me go Because I paid with my own touch now I brought a little cut There is blood for every month In the way you used to call her wicked answers Time is a plague There's no time in this place If you don't If you don't Let me go Heaven's made a cesspool of us all I'm nowhere near this place you wear It's unforgivable it knows that I am visible I'm broken mirrors and useless prayer This lock is healing me you know you came so willingly There burns a kiss with serpent scales There is no miracle I lost your miracle I'm nowhere near this place you wear It's unforgivable it knows that I am visible I wrap myself around your buried question Through the blisters of confinement I seek to drain this broken shelter To refill the pigment case that I have left Don't stay long for teeth nurse the first wound Coats revolve hope to gain What if we find what tongue ties double windsor Invoke to no reply Those that lie have froze at the border No implies close the frame What if we find the sunlight draws a curtain Invoke to no reply There's a place where this depth charge ignites In this place where the soul has no purpose I can't believe you when your thirst won't let me go I am the moment you were always speaking of because there's No fence will hold the sentient Culprit fall about it Say when I can enter them Culprit fall about it One fell the other taste won't lie Make no doubt about it [x5] How many blame how many cave into the pressure I apply |

That night I remember what you slipped in my glass We came rewinding when I foamed at the mouth while the lights winked at me And now my shape is kept The rain it can't hide, wash the pain from this hex Is it so permanent? Did she catch a left eye when it blinks three times Or once just to seal you in? In your drunken breath did it stain like us In place of poison heat? I gotta rid this world of your intention Swap the corpse in the casket Give me that corpse please The one that tore nightly I really want it now Fold the arms slowly Don't want you to hold me It fits just like a glove Does he make you feel alright? When I seep inside your truth through suspicious little coughs You sank your nails inside a key while the door you shut closed up The black stockings you kept smell of wet cigarette Torn of lust that you could not keep I have slept inside your fault to have you keep me here on this leash For the rest of your pets I will feed to this theft As we consummate the vows of defeat And when you pray for an end to this I do believe this is eternity Give me that corpse please The one that tore nightly I really want it now Fold the arms slowly Don't want you to hold me It fits just like a glove Your closet is bulging White marrow withholding Does he make you feel alright? Give me that corpse please The one that tore nightly I really want it now Fold the arms slowly Don't want you to hold me It fits just like a glove Your closet is bulging White marrow withholding Does he make you feel alright? Never heard a man speak like this man before Never heard a man speak like this man before All the days of my life ever since I've been born Never heard a man speak like this man before Watch me now Say it, say it, say it loud Say it, say it, say it loud Hold your heavy burden In a pocket full of drink that I have drunk Spit the remnants in your direction This is the closest to any kingdom that you will come I'm starting to feel a miscarriage coming on It's numbing a stump clearing in my throat And I just can't lose grip of it She fumigated my mental hygiene I'm all out of pulse but I know you can resuscitate me Never heard a man speak like this man before Never heard a man speak like this man before All the days of my life ever since I've been born Never heard a man speak like this man before Never heard a man speak like this man before Never heard a man speak like this man before All the days of my life ever since I've been born Never heard a man speak like this man before Watch me now |

> Maybe I'll break down
Maybe I'll try Circumvent inoculation And I just want a cut When will I break down? Lately I might Un-connect the fascination And I just want to touch This is a list They're my demands Forget the question Come on bring your nervous hands You read it in my letter ""Patience worth is dead"" Suffocate the inkwell ""I am legion"" said the pen Her seraph snout And cruciform limp I blame the shrouding of a lesser man My sigil contraptions They walk with no crutches Don't show me the hinges I am absent Maybe I'll break down Maybe I'll try Circumvent inoculation And I just want a cut When will I break down? Lately I might Un-connect the fascination And I just want to touch She came to me When she was pouring out of drool Under sedation Under vulgar multitudes If you stay and try To fix what you did The sheets were wet from all those messages A million petitions Her lock with no key You forfeit the right to be believed Full implant Shapeless as a jewel And I am stranded by eternal solitude Maybe I'll break down Maybe I'll try Circumvent inoculation And I just want a cut When will I break down? Lately I might Un-connect the fascination And I just want to touch The vault that I call home It falls beneath your palms Before I crawl my way out She calls When you're standing right outside my window Water thirsting You're standing right outside my window Water thirsting When will I drown? I'll never get a distant shot Heard vesper pure I never want to see your face Until the word is made flesh You'd better ask Metatron Those flowers that withered away In the pages of your book For one day they won't block your route In the dead plot you dream in Ten go away Ten born of pray Ten go away Folding wormholes My time is riding in the alphabet Folding wormholes My time is riding on the wall In the dead plot you dream in Ten go away Ten born of pray Ten go away Folding wormholes My time is riding in the alphabet Folding wormholes My time is riding on the wall Debase by your sentence I fell in the trap What door slid behind me? I can't see it anymore When she sleeps as a witness Got no better hands Tied a single stutter Do you speak my dialect? Accidents will happen Keep your earnings to yourself One sip under the table Until it moves all by itself In the eye of Fatima I've kept all your dreams In a waking solution of indictment Maybe I'll break down Maybe I'll try Circumvent inoculation And I just want a cut When will I break down? Lately I might Un-connect the fascination And I just want to touch |

Came back to doubt yourself but broke in two They find it punctual with idle tooth I'll find something to shake by the roots I crawl along the ceilings in your room The cold is spinning thread to answer you I need something made of freewill [Chorus:] Am I waiting now? Does my waiting howl? Am I waiting now? Does my waiting howl? [x2] I bring an avalanche of toltec bones Contaminated cravings if you choose To play something that aches for a spill Leave out the meat for that contact high Inhale the vapors and let the hangman smile For that something to shake by roots [Chorus] Bring me the tame Witness germinates in the child That word of mouth stutters Blink at the lonely dice [x2] Don't know |

Taking a ride. And i'm wishing, For the satellite. Grabbing vein. Pulling down, On the radio. Laughing at the face that's bending down. I'm all alone so far up here, And my oxygen's all gone. Bend the metal. My glory box has failed. We're rocking in our reclining chairs. Drive away. That car, That brought us all this harm. Those are the pieces of my story line. I'm all alone so far up here, And my oxygen's all gone. I'm all alone so far up here, And my oxygen's all gone. Truly, Stressing, Realization. I wish I was an astronaut. Eight hour, Bitterness. All for whose sake? Stained-glass Sunday School charades. |

In a small ghost town, there's a little arcade,
where the poltergeists play their video games. (On the roof he says...) Game over they said, Game over they said run and get your quarters in. (Over cliffs we will swim ahead.) Do the shackles underneath your bed haunt the records in their grooves? (And he said inside of them...) Salem is home Sentenced to live. Yes, this I know Comes back tenfold, fold, fold. Run and get your quarters in. At the bottom of a french blue pool, Roamed the drunk chipped tooth Of the man in the moon. (Jump on the roof he said.) Burn, furnace burn At the bottom of the cliff, Shined a diamond with no end to its trip. Do the shackles underneath your bed haunt the records in their grooves? (And they said it's all over.) Salem is home Sentenced to live. Yes, this i know Comes back tenfold, fold, fold. Hook and sinker. (x3) I wrote it all down for you. Match a name to the face. Do you suspect? Do you confess? Do you confess? Salem is home Sentenced to live. Yes, this i know Comes back tenfold, fold, fold. |

This is the accent of the halfhearted land.
Does it all make sense now? And if the ship was built in bottled sand, Does it all make sense now? The anchor's kiss was scrawled in dyslexic crayon. Does it all make sense now? Is this just a life preserve or a bivouac tenure? The tropic of cancer answered, "Drink the quicksand." A mirror was splintered on the decks floor. Does it all make sense now? A stowaway that lived beneath this hull. Does it all make sense now? The anchor's kiss was scrawled in dyslexic crayon. Yes, it all makes sense now. Is this just a life preserve or a bivouac tenure? This tropic of cancer answered, "Drink the quicksand." Its gills will swim faster after a breath from the shore. Is this just a life preserve or a bivouac tenure? Breathe the taste of salt water. Dry-heave up and overboard! Ponce de Leon wrinkles. Let's make it young again! Boat drinks for captains. Row our boat, stowaway! Boat drinks for captains. Row our boat, stowaway! Is this just a life preserve or a bivouac tenure? The tropic of cancer answered, "Drink the quicksand." Its gills will swim faster after a breath from the shore. All makes sense now. If your map was torn, navigate, navigate. All makes sense now. If your compass broke, navigate, navigate. All makes sense now. If your map was torn, navigate, navigate. All makes sense now. |

In the humble stench of nativity,
Hummed the smell of television snow. A faint S.O.S. flickering, Riding on the coattails of your ground zero. Neighborhood footprints ingrown. The daylight savings time will never know of this alabaster cold, of this alabaster. Your lover's quarrel ended up in a crawspace. Dental identities will tell us apart. Teeth marked and bounded with sighs. "Step into my parlor." said the spider to the fly. Stable hooved footprints ingrown. Cloak and dagger music blared in ohms of this alabaster cold, of this alabaster cold, of this alabaster cold. Ingrown! Ingrown! Ingrown! Ingrown! More caliber per capita. Ingrown! Ingrown! More caliber per capita. Ingrown! More caliber per capita. More, more, more, more caliber per capita. More, more caliber per capita. More caliber per capita. Neighborhood footprints ingrown. The daylight savings time will never know. Breakfast table search teams implode. The milk cartons that pour will never know of this alabaster cold, of this alabaster cold, of this alabaster cold, of this alabaster cold. |

Pet sounds filling pet peeve voids.
Black and white TV with the sound turned down, Is this mono or stereo? Lending aneurysm. Satisfaction in the fruitless gaze of your Mona Lisa's lazy smile. Trick ourselves in portable stanzas. Black Russian throated on this guillotine cancer. How steep we are. But there's just no telling, Just no telling. Savion is under heel, Clicking Morse code through movie stills, Again. Savion is under heel, Clicking Morse code through movie stills, Again. The sky had blackened with carrion birds. Pinstriped suits and cigarettes, Tapped danced through this tepid burlesque. Their mouths were parched with excess thirst. Bridge and chorus candy curse, Still they snag through the strepthroat verse. Pet sounds filling pet peeve voids. Black and white TV with the sound turned down, Is this mono or stereo? If I had a dollar For every plot that you made, In this bed of nails we made. Trick ourselves in portable stanzas. Black Russian throated on this guillotine cancer. How steep we are. But there's just no telling, Just no telling. Pet sounds filling pet peeve voids. Black and white TV with the sound turned down. Like breathing blood through the lungs of a czar's child. Through the lungs of a czar's child. Through the lungs of a czar's child. Savion is under heel, Clicking Morse code through movie stills, Again. Savion is under heel, Clicking Morse code through movie stills, Again.

This voltage hurts just a little. In the thickness of the van, You drop anchor if and when. Concealing all the thoughts, We hid and laughed forever.

I'm drinking slovenly. Leave me alone, Leave me alone. I am not your brother. I see five holes In your flag. Repelling essence swelling, something to blame. And from these hands sweeps the grenade. I'm swimming down. Leave me alone, Leave me alone. (I am not your brother.) Well, I'm not your brother. I see five holes In your flag. Collect calling. The fuse is crawling. To the next hometown.

(Spoken:)
I had a friend who died for something he really loved. I had a friend who stood for none of the above. I had a friend whose experience was riddled with scars. Who got drunk one night in the trunk of Louie P.'s car. I had a friend who'd love to scare you, as was his affection. And tremble you did cause you weren't worthy of his friendship. I had a friend, but now he's stranded on the Mesa Street exit. And sometimes I'm jealous cause I'm still at the intersection. I had a friend whose heart was too heavy to hold. Yes, there's blood on the median like a boat without oars. Duct tape the cross on the brown colored box. Well single file line on the unpaved road. (The road.) Well they tipped their hats, respect for the dead. (The road.) In Juarez, Mexico is where they buried my friend. There are no words To express the loss I feel since you've been away. You made a typical sad song, A physical classroom. Where I learned nothing. Just flashes of your, Face. Just flashes of your, Face. And my solution is: It's all a facade. It's all a facade. It's all a facade. And nothing really matters. (No.) It's all a facade. It's all a facade. It's all a facade. But nothing really matters. (No.) It's all a facade. It's all a facade.

Sawing off the pavement
Repenting their past lives Might I be the only pain that's left to be left behind? Clay and pygmy footsteps Rusted, boil it clean A bullet in linguistics That only we can breathe Now, I got a prayer that'll make you theirs now Beneath sepulchres Raise your entrails as an offer Now, I got a prayer that'll make you theirs now Beneath sepulchres Raise your entrails as an offer Following with pitchforks In a cattle prodded theme Signaling the sedative To emaciate the queen Bowing in constriction Any time you leave We've slipped ourselves in angels In catabata leaves Now, I got a prayer that'll make you theirs now Beneath sepulchres Raise your entrails as an offer Now, I got a prayer that'll make you theirs now Beneath sepulchres Raise your entrails as an offer In my sign I was born To bring death at the footsteps of your home Tonight I have sown All the hair and crooked nails That you all have worn While your white sense of hope I plant the vermin Just who makes it so? How long must we fold our hands? Our guts are burning wheels again Get a match that will make you thin Come clean with the antidote After all we came undone A pair of sluts with hosts that fall One day we will pay your debt Our centipedes will pick the dead Poachers in your home How long must we fold our hands? Our guts are burning wheels again Get a match that will make you thin Come clean with the antidote After all we came undone A pair of sluts with hosts that fall One day we will pay your debt Our centipedes will pick the dead Follow every bottle out And the cruelest smut, smut you know It's the gash that autumn knows Daughters lying at the door Raise the body Breathe your clear air Everybody will call aloud Everybody calls aloud Everybody sing aloud My hands secrete a monument I am the reason For your missing child He might be home But there's no trace Under your pillow I have left a spine All the things we do When you're away I saw the message That you wrote in the sand Dismembered heads that come away The anaesthetic of your gospel sin Put a muzzle on the lamb Put a muzzle on the lamb Give me one page Give me one page Make it blank Mix it, a leak will rain Give me one page Give me one page Make it blank We shall inflict your way Maybe one day you'll stop and realize All that you serveis dead Give me your plate Give me your plate Make it break Nothing you hold is safe How long must we fold our hands? Our guts are burning wheels again Get a match that will make you thin Come clean with the antidote After all we came undone A pair of sluts with hosts that fall One day we will pay your debt Our centipedes will pick the dead Poachers in your home |

I've been drinking black mirror again
The closer we part I needed to touch your lips With the nail in my heart The night that you caught me My coffin did walk I feel at your mercy I fell in your grave Meccamputechture That stands in my way The younger I stay An elderly child The longer the mirror gives birth To the death I file If you consume me I will not let you go If you walk right through me My voice will taint your throat Blessed be the wrong I've done Someone is watching us Someone has found Fluorescent ligaments On a black and white tile Why do you call them If your kingdom won't come The younger I stay Forever I rot If you consume me I will not let you go If you walk right through me My voice will taint your throat Blessed be the wrong I've done Because the flies my mouth spill Bare the children at play ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By RODRIGUEZ, OMAR/BIXLER, CEDRIC <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing</i> |

There with them is error
We are sacrosanct A taunting of ravens to you My swarms have fit the holster My faith burnt every house Like no other manger I am emptier with doubt Bare them Sevens Three to a pall Marks the Venom Lush and terminal When I became your larvae You fed me from your plates Now my slouch is nervous Sinking by the face Wrinkled by this gravel Skinless trace of time Wear your cobwebs proudly In your cheap and brittle sight My glands emit this carnage These pews bend back your knees That uniform it wears you When the ultimatum pleads Bare them Sevens Three to a pall Marks the Venom Lush and terminal That cesspool it becomes you Just north of the eyebrows Squat the hole for a pucker When the rations go blonde The salted stitch is patient Waiting to engulf There is plasma from this hoax Pretending to be us Embalming all the fluids I must, I must I prefer to burn it I must, I must |

Don't you pretend
That I'm not alive My bones never ache Unless she's near by Where is your face In a safe of dead tongues I can see your reflection In your totem first glare(?) I suspect You've been carrying a pack of wolves A regret Not killing you while I had the chance I know I had the chance Maybe I will always haunt you Mark the somnolence with truth Better hang your dead palace Than have a living home to lose In the river Ganges, God damns my name Don't let these hands Sharpen your eyes A rasp of tails |

Por cuando te vi enfermo con mentiras
Este ladron cuenta se dio Trapa mal hecho de trampas te lo juro Que yo si te mato Y con cada dia que se pase recuerdate Quien era el mas poderoso (For when I saw you sick with lies This thief, he took notice Trap poorly made of tricks I swear to you And with everyday that passes Remember, Who was the most powerful) Don't let me Don't let me go There is a venom in numerical eyes Your convalescent thorns Upon a crown of maggots Your father shakes inside that third glass eye Come on and give it to me Come on and die In your viscera eyes Cataracts close the blinds Lend me your comfort Come cry by your side Aye, mi hijo, no me llores porque te qito de esta cruz Ni agachate vi caminado sin la alma de tu cuerpo En los brazos sin luz (Oh my son, don't cry for me Because I'll take you off this cross And don't duck I saw your body walking in the dark without a soul) They scalp our children by seven The border we're watching Where the other three now hide The culprits can't be seen from a premium of glass We shudder in this sigil then you carpe diem-tize Don't let me Don't let me go There is a venom in numerical eyes Your convalescent thorns Upon a crown of maggots Verucca shakes inside that third glass eye Come on and give it to me Come on and die In your viscera eyes Cataracts close the blinds Lend me your comfort Come cry by your side In your viscera eyes Cataracts close the blinds Lend me your comfort Come cry by your side Wait! I've seen the ark shake from your pneumonic tongue But the braile that you weave of itself it shall read aloud Yes it will I said, she's falling, she's still falling But no one wants to come She's crawling, she's still crawling On your burial ground Said, she's falling, she's still falling But no one wants to come I said, she's crawling, she's still crawling On your burial |

In denial who will come clean
All the ravenous debris In disguise sideswiped by penance Cerecloth sentencing This scapegrace will pay my barking harangue...Are you listening? On the fourteenth you stole what Hasn't grown old in denial, File this under a bridge that he can't leave Will those shadows glare from that blank Rimmed stare in a vacancy hush Aunque me dejaste ahogando en el mar Aquestete en la tierra, de la realidad ed tu sueno manos me recuerdo solamente a ti te odio yo ya me voy In denial who will clean up All this ravenous debris In denial, file this under A bridge that he can't leave And the Storyville sawbones couldn't tell The prescription to mend all the broken wills In the white lie ward Don't you pretend Tangled in thorns to walk unborn And the debt will collect |

Do you recall it's name
As it suggested beck and call This face and heel Will drag your halo through the mud Ash of Pompeii Erupting in a statues dust Shrouded in veils Because these handcuffs hurt to much Scalping these ticketless applause And when they drag the lake there is nothing left at all Seutured contusion Beyond the ant hills of the dawning of this plague Said I've lost my way Even if this cul de sac would pay To reach inside a vault whatever be the cost Sterling clear Blackend ice When they drag the lake there's nothing left at all I've defected Seutuerd contusion Beyond the ant hills of the dawning of this plague Said I've lost my way Even if this cul de sac did pay To reach inside a vault whatever be the cost Sterling clear Blackend ice When they drag the lake there's nothing left at all I've defected Beyond the ant hills of the dawning of this plague Said I've lost my way Even if this cul de sac did pay Beyond the ant hills of said I've lost my way Even if you reach inside a vault whatever be the cost Sterling clear Blackend ice When they drag the lake there's nothing left at all This is my last insicion The stitches have defected Drag me a vessel Coveting all you know see and hear This is my last incision The stitches have fallen off Sterling clear blackened ice And when they drag they lake there's nothing left at all I've defected |

You've got the lot to burn
A shelve of pig smotherd cries Is there a spirit that spits Upon the exit of signs Is anybody there These steps keep on growing long Bayonet trials rust propellers await No Nobody is heard Rowing sheep smiles for the dead Nobody is heard An antiquated home Afloat with engines on mute Sui generis ship spined around the yard Is anybody there These craft only multiply At the nape of ruins rust propellers await No Nobody is heard compass wilting in the wind Nobody is heard Rowing sheep smile for the dead Tansoceanic depth in this earth No Nobody is heard compass wilting in the wind Nobody is heard Rowing sheep smile for the dead Tansoceanic depth in this earth in this cenotaph Lash of one thousand eye brows clicking Counting the toll Counting the toll You've got the lot to burn A shelve of pig smothered cries Is there a spirit that spits upon the exit of signs Is anybody there These steps keep on growing long Bayonet trials rust propellers await No Nobody is heard compass wilting in the wind Nobody is heard rowing sheep smile for the dead Transoceanic depth in this earth in this cenotaph Carpel jets Hit the ground Carpel jets Hit the ground Carpel jets Hit the ground Carpel jets Hit the ground Lash of one thousand eyebrows clicking Counting the toll Counting the toll Lash of one thousand eyebrows clicking Counting the toll Counting the toll |

And there are those who
Hadn't found the speaking so wrong Is it wrong Of pavolov lore They ran rampant through the floors Is this wrong Feels so wrong Happened on a respirator In the basements Are they gone are they gone Stung the slang of a gallows bird Rationed a dead letter pure Trackmarked amoeba lands craft Cartwheel of scratches Dress the tapeworm as pet Tenticles smirk please Flinched the cocooned meat Infra-recon forgets Now there are those who find Comfort in the breathing Wrong-is it wrong It houses the watchful eyes They're panting in a pattern in droves Are they gone Happened on a respirator bet In the basements Is it gone Are they gone Stung the slang of a gallows bird Sanctioned a dead letter pure Trackmarked amoeba lands craft Cartwheel of scratches Dress the tape worm as pets Tentacles smirk please Flinch the cacooned meat Infra-recon forgets Evaporated the fur Because it covers them If you only knew the plans they had for us Evaporated the fur Because it covers them If you only knew the plans they had for us They used to have pulses in them But impulse has made the strong They used to have pulses in them But impulse has made them strong Evaporated the fur Because it covers them If you only knew the plans they had for us Trackmarked amoeba lands craft Cartwheel of scratches Dress the tapeworm as pets Tentacles smirk please Flinch the cacooned meat Infra-reco forgets Gotta be a way Of getting out Are you just growing old Trackmarked amoeba lands craft Cartwheel of scratches Dress the tapeworm as pets |

Now I'm lost
Last night I heard lepers Flinch like birth defects It's musk was fecal in origin As the words dribbled off of its chin It said I'm lost I'm lost Now I'm lost Dolls wreck the minced meat of pupils Cast in oblong arms length The hooks have been picking their scabs Where wolves hide in the company of men It said I'm lost I'm lost Now I'm lost Are you peaking in the red Perforated at the neck What of this mongrel architect A broken arm of sewers set Past present and future tense Clipside of the pinkeye fountain Now I'm lost It's been said Long time ago You'll be the first and last to know You'll never know |
