Benign 02:42
Because you were born with a purpose You serve and slave You entertain And we know I’m the one with value My needs, I got needs just like everyone else And they’ve never known a shelf Birthed with a purpose Just like me Different paths, wrong fates, cycle lives of pain Fuck your comfort, pockets running deep Life is not exclusive Open throats know purpose Blood flows the same path, the same speed The only difference is who’s And how much, at what cost, on who’s hands Doesn’t matter we’ll pay it Noise murders thought Like you had a single option Wreck your cross, your way of life Your fucking apathy We gave Purpose We gave comfort Fuck your cause Pockets running deep Heavy with blood
2.
Black teeth Coward eyes Lost words Erased lives No one means nothing And loose ends swallow blood Lost in the streets and parking lots Cloaked wraiths who leave their bodies home And everything has a fucking price tag Even me And I would give it all back If you’d only erase me Erase me
3.
Breath/Life 02:20
They told you this was all for you That they helped you out Those dirty eyes, dirty thoughts They only meant to love you And you thought you needed him You’re the system, the fucking seed And for what? To create that which lives and dies for nothing For god and country For sword and truth The lies they sold our youth To keep our hands in their pockets And our minds on the end And to keep us worshiping the men, trust the cloth Drawing breath entitled to nothing Progress the seed, create for nothing And your son will be born into the void To rule the wasteland, medicated sitcom lives While twisted dead tongues circle his ears And the truth soaked in red And for what? Despondency This world Wreathed in shit With no skeletons by my side No men, no masters, no christ Born into this void Your father’s bones next to mine
4.
Stuffed full of lies With smiles stretched thin No eyes, no eyes Just loss, just regret This way no one feels nothing Secondhand, secondhand You’ve got your sad story Loose ends, loose ends No future, no security Dead end, dead end Modern options, modern scam Hollow friends, secondhand And if life didn’t bring you disaster you fucking found it You roamed the streets painted red While the wolves watched your broken steps And they almost felt sorry for you I almost felt sorry for you And then you fell, wreathed in shame You silenced them, but only for the night And you know the days are short these coming months

Shelter 02:34
I’m spitting black From the nights Veins that don’t know blood That don’t know truth I’ve burned holes through the skin And I’ve crawled with no eyes Drove the nails Into this existence I sucked its wounds I drank its filth And it changed me It changed us
6.
I’m out of breath, I said what’s been said But you fucking want to hear it These days are long as our lives are cheap As our words are cheap Light as a feather Heavier than grief Dead words pouring like lies Like these wasted nights These fucking faces stripped bare The skin pulled from their masks Time after time abused and dismissed The sympathy act can be hard to resist Crippled defeated hearts reaching out Bleeding them dry, outracing the doubt Lost words Are better lost Desperate friends At cheaper cost None of this will fill the void These lines have been said a thousand times By those who have felt so much more than mine By buried fools, romantics, and worthless cheats Who all felt that terrible disease Who’ve burned their letters and bridges, erased their youth And made these days and invalid and untrue Who abandoned their joy for grave marked pursuits Who were cleansed in fear and would bear all they would lose
