Ya know, sometimes things just don’t work out
Maybe your partner left you
Maybe your country broke your heart
And believe me
I know when your heart is broken it can be so hard to know which way is up
But as the old saying are often true
Sometimes the only way out is through
The weatherman says the sky is falling
I try to call but there’s no answer
I hear your voice
It’s thanking me for calling
I wish time would go backwards
Meanwhile I got my problems chasing me
I try but I can’t get away
My baby she doesn’t love me
Nothing matters anymore anyway
Oh say can you see if our flag is still standing up?
Oh say can you tell me what has become of our love?
What now?
There’s war pigs on a mission
The people look to leadership for change
But this dedication to the system
Is Einstein’s definition of insane
Meanwhile my heart is breaking
My world ended yesterday
My love, once ripe for the taking
Has been shot down and put in it’s grave
Oh say can you see if our flag is still standing up
Oh say can you tell me what has become of our love
Normalize Fear
Normalize Fear
A confrontational punk track that satirizes the normalization of political extremism and fear-driven rhetoric through escalating, chaotic imagery.
They’re coming with their zip ties
They’re coming with their guns and knives
Ya know they’ve all been baptized
To a MAGA way of life
They’re marching on the capitol
And they’re flying foreign flags
They’re gonna cut the tail off of the dog
And see what wags
They’re setting up the gallows
The libs are all going to hang by dawn
Divided we’re drowning in shallow water
They even brought a white shaman c’mon
Hey!
They’re tryna normalize fear
(But they just look ridiculous)
Hey!
They’re tryna normalize fear
(I’m shaking in my boots)
Hey!
They’re tryna normalize fear
(Can’t you se me quivering?)
Hey!
They’re tryna normalize fear
(Free for some not for all)
One way!
Ticket ticket
Gonna pay El Salvador
A little visit
A black bag for your lover
A Black bag for your head
You know they’re gonna love each other
After half of us our dead
They caught a computer virus
And the mob mentality has spread
And if your world view don’t fit theirs
They’re gonna take you in your bed
There’s a price for Roman freedom
All the heathens have to pay
Doesn’t matter if you’re innocent
They’re gonna take you anyway
(All the people say)
Hey!
They’re tryna normalize fear
(Here they come in their stupid hats)
Hey!
They’re tryna normalize fear
(You know they just changed the name of the country right?)
Hey!
They’re tryna normalize fear
(America first, Germany first!)
Hey!
They’re tryna normalize fear
(If you’re not Nazis then why the Nazi sloganeering?)
One way!
Ticket ticket
Gonna pay El Salvador
A little visit
And like lobsters sitting in a kettle
They don’t notice the fascist waters heating to a boil
Until they’re screaming through their skin
Hey!
They’re tryna normalize fear
Same Routine
Don’t listen to the radio
That thing will only rot your soul
They’re playing for a dying dollar
They should be playing like there
Ain’t no tomorrow
Don’t listen to the rhetoric
It’s so rhetorical it makes your head thick
Turn your thoughts into somebody’s propaganda
Reduce your language down to idiotic slander
When I see you every night
Doing the same old thing
Makes me want to hang my head and cry
Watching you die
Living in the same routine
Don’t turn on your television
That thing will only blank your mind
What is on it is too awful to mention
Ya kill yourself just to kill a little time
When I see you every night
Doing the same old thing
Makes me want to hang my head and cry
Watching you die
Living in the same routine
Don’t listen to the radio
That thing will only rot your soul
They’re playing for a dying dollar
They should be playing like there
Ain’t no tomorrow
When I see you every night
Doing the same old thing
Makes me want to hang my head and cry
Watching you die
Living in the same routine
Mourning Shuffle
Who we mourning this time
Watch me lose my mind
Jump into a snake pit again
Let ‘em take their tiny bites
We’re always at a funeral
I go wherever you go
Even though it’s futile
That love is universal
One foot in the frying pan and one in the fire
Say you’re alright but we both know you’re a lier
You play the hunter and the bird on a wire
Can’t tell the difference between duress and desire
Oh no!
You say you’re alright but you’re out of control
Frantically grasping but there’s nothing to hold onto
Living everyday like a riddle
And you’re always getting caught in the middle
Of the punch line, you try just a little
But it only wears you out then you get ill
You get ill
And give in
What’s you’re problem this time
Blotting out your sunshine
Back pedal into the cold again
Til you’re numb with frostbite
We’re always at a funeral
I go wherever you go
Even though it’s futile
That pain is universal
Hanging on by the thread of your will to survive
Maybe you’re not dead but you’re barely alive
Keep pushing it in past the point of revival
Laying in wait for your last angels arrival
You say life ain’t nothing but a means to an end
All dressed up in handcuffs we don’t need to pretend that your
Doing what you do because you want to
One kiss for every time they want you
One cut for every time they’ve wronged you
Just fresh blood for us to sing a song to
Who we mourning this time
Watch me lose my mind
Who we mourning this time
Watch me lose my mind
The Last Song
This is the last song
This is the last song that I’m ever gonna write
This is the last song that I’m ever gonna write about you
You’re so caught up in your feelings
What about your pain is so appealing
You wanna pa pa pa push
That shit on out into the world
Not everything’s about you
But everything that you do feels so self serving
This is the last song
So fragile that you project
But what you tryna protect
It’s so unnerving
This is the last song
And all the lengths that you go
To hide that you’re vulnerable
Are only going to show
This is the last song
Not everything’s about you
It’s time you embrace the truth
This life ain’t all about you
This is the last song
Was was what’s your problem this time
Blotting out all of your sunshine
As if I had time to care
I’ll let you cry about it one time
But then you better prepare
To get on up and get on out and get on over
And maybe face this world sober
And get get over yourself
Not everything’s about you
But everything that you do feels so self serving
This is the last song
So fragile that you project
But what you tryna protect
It’s so unnerving
This is the last song
And all the lengths that you go
To hide that you’re vulnerable
Are only going to show
This is the last song
Not everything’s about you
It’s time you embrace the truth
This life ain’t all about you
This is the last song
This is the last song
This is the last song that I’m ever gonna write
This is the last song that I’m ever gonna write about you
Past Life
Picture the aftermath
A planet lying as still as its photograph
We’re seven billion pirates
Took everything they could and left nothing alive
Desire is never quiet
Saw something and we had to buy it
It all ended up in a landfill
Never really thought about what we were killing then
We’ll eat until we burst
We’ll drink until we thirst
Someones got to give it up
But it won’t be me first
And the god that we denied
Is the nature we defied
And all without knowing
But not without warning
Paid for their suicide
It’s happening exactly like it did the last time
I know our future ‘cause I saw it in a past life
Keep buying shit just like an addict hitting glass pipes
I know out future ‘cause I found it in a land mine
The ship of fools’ an arc
Take 2 of everything
And when the feeling starts
We all start to dance and sing
We relieve the pressure
Regardless of the cost
There is no measure
To the measures we would take to get off
It’s happening exactly like it did the last time
I know our future ‘cause I saw it in a past life
Keep buying shit just like an addict hitting glass pipes
I know out future ‘cause I found it in a land mine
It’s happening exactly like it did the last time
I know our future ‘cause I saw it in a past life
Live at the mall and call it ballin while the fam dies
This world is Lucy’s
Know she won it by a landslide
