Intro 01:45
2.
Pawns 01:34
Our nation, built on violence Instilling fear and keeping things quiet Land of the free, I disagree This is not how home's supposed to be Murderous tyrants, hidden agendas Fair and balanced propaganda Distorting rule of law Perverting right and wrong Tax dollars to conceal the crooks Arming kings with knights and rooks We the people, Complacent fucking pawns Still anguished families pay The price of systematic hate Where 'to serve and protect' is to lacerate To empty clips and incarcerate
3.
Unrequited 02:07
Kiss my lips Steady my hands Whisper sweet nothings Thin my blood Loosen my chest I love you above all the rest I stumble down the left-hand path To escape an incapacitating regret As that old familiar tension Converges in my breast Cripple the wit Castrate the flesh I'm alone again Miserable and vexed
4.
No Regret 02:14
You're a fucking parasite A sight for sore eyes The pain you caused Still fucking lingers I broke my back for you You called me a coward But you're the one who left Took the money, no regret You've made your deathbed Never gonna change Can't take responsibility For anything Creeping and crawling In my head Like a painful memory Lodged in lead A farewell gift A lie you fed
5.
RU-486 03:47
Preferring confusion to clarity A thoroughly poisoned sanity Blame falls on the layer of the claim Composer of an ideal that could never be sustained But my chest still knots and my stomach sinks Every time I hear your name The consummation of one's romantic inclination Is another's blunder In those beds, conceived pure infatuation Only to be bled the fuck out again I should have known that it would end like this Everything I touch just turns to shit Should have never let you inside my mind Knew you wouldn't like what you would find Deterioration of communication An incomprehensible internal loathing Accompanied by crippling realization Our New Year's relief was a wolf in sheep's' clothing But I know it's best for you to never see me again
