It's only natural I love you so much
it's only natural my heart simply jumps
it's only natural I'd join the sky
down to the Earth so that heaven knows why
so I'll punch the wretched world in it's fucking throat
snuff out all evil in all corners of the Earth
so that you can live a life of perfect peace
I'll bring the world to it's knees
I want to give you all that you should have
a heart that is free and two lungs full of breath
in your cocoon of dreams passing the days
always keep safe in mysterious ways
so I'll punch the wretched world in it's fucking throat
snuff out all evil in all corners of the Earth
so that you can live a life a perfect peace
I'll bring the world to it's knees
so I'll kick the chair on every blackened heart
I will carry every burden on my soul
so that you can live a life of perfect peace
I'll show you what you mean to me

don't need anyone bringing you down

Summer Kills
02:45

all those summers back, i had regretted much, i regretted often
yea all those summer back, i didn't really know what to do with myself
but in the summer heat, i believed that there was more than suffering
in the summer heat, i promised that i would someday rule the world
so how about going out and doing something yea? doing anything
to get my mind off, off of the constant fear, of the constant panic
and maybe if we do we can plead for a blissful ignorance
often sick to death with ennui and with a crippling sense of dread
i said by 25, i said by 30
i'd rather be dead than not achieve a thing
i didn't want to fail, i didn't want to face
all my fears and suffocating anxieties
all those summers back, i was haunted by a ghost of my own making
all those summers ago, i wished to be something, just to feel anything
yea in the summer heat, i believed that i could really be something
yea in the summer heat, i saw a dream of a world in which i could be fine

We hold these things to be true:
"we are going to be screwed"
Not till all of their heads are rolling in the streets
will we be safe, hide your kids away
how the fuck do we eat if we need guillotines?
Robespierre was not a saint
don't mean that I can't pray
Oh cowards, liches of the Earth
Sacks of shit in cloaks of skin
Not till all of their heads are rolling in the streets
will we be safe, hide your kids away
how the fuck do we eat if we need guillotines?
Robespierre was not a saint
don't mean that I can't pray

Better Death

Sing it, oh sing it out loud and fill the room up
Up with yourself, and with your hopes
and your dreams, and all your fears
So even when that day should come
so even when that day does come
you can find your peace in having been a little sun
and even if I fail myself
yea even if I fail myself
I won't go away I will be the songs that you hum
Sing it, oh sing it out loud and fill the room up
Up with yourself, there's no yesterday
no tomorrow, only right now
[chorus]

Dopamine (It's Love)
02:04
|
|||
|
no matter how not in control of my life i ever am
i can ease it, i can freeze it, i can give it a raincheck
if it feels good
it it works fast
i will put it in my blood
if it hurts me
if it's nursing
if it's dopamine (it's love)
no matter how much you hurt me i can always push it back
but what's good today is weak tomorrow
and that's how it is until the end
if it feels good
it it works fast
i will put it in my blood
if it hurts me
if it's nursing
if it's dopamine (it's love)
if it kills me
if it saves me
if it just does anything
if it hurts me
if it's nursing
if it's dopamine (it's love)

Wane Poetic
02:21

Oh in the heart there
there is a hunger
a creeping dread
that loneliness might be forever
and there exist those
who prey upon that
can you really
call it lucky if you survive?
Oh, the fire dies slow
but it's still there
I try and I try but
I can still see the glare
When will it go?
and render me blind
show me the day is borne
out of the night
I've been trying to
forget about you
it's hard work but i think it's
finally happening
And I'm aware that
this contradicts that
but this is the last song
that you're ever getting
[chorus]
Oh woe was me
the first time I
saw those sleepy eyes
that sarcastic sneer
In all of my days
the word fear
had no weight
then you appeared

Every Single Fucking Day
02:07
|

|
Life is learning to dance on a knife's edge, baby
life is learning to walk on a goddamn tight rope, baby
Yea every single fucking day it eats away
yea every single fucking day
I'm not tryin' to be neurotic, promise
I'm not tryin' to set fire to all my friendships, promise
It's just every single fucking day it eats away
yea every single goddamn day
Yea every single fucking day it eats away
yea every single fucking day
Time goes and with people will pass away, all of the time
too true, but why does it have to be the people I know the best?

Alice, Pt. 2
03:07
|
|||
|
one day a beam of light will pierce the sky
and it will scatter you unto this place
my silver lining in my tapestry
always kept safe and sound waiting for me
so i'll carry my heart through this wretched world
fend off all evil and die upon my hill
for to see you live your life in perfect peace
no greater happiness for me
i want to give you all that you should have
a heart full of gold and two wings on your back
in your cocoon of dreams cherish the days
always keep safe in mysterious ways
so i'll carry my heart through this wretched world
fend off all evil and die upon my hill
for to see you live your life in perfect peace
no greater happiness for me
so i'll carry your heart through this wretched world
scour all the oceans until i find your pearl
and when i do, then ill bask in perfect peace
that's how much you mean to me
