Gotta stop this fearful panic state It’s a threat. Not the current phase we face And with these lies, they’re treating us like mice Going round and round the wheel That is all, it won’t get any worse That’s our selves nailing coffins Digging our own graves All this noise that distorts democracy Will destroy like a self fulfilling prophecy That will burn our future to the ground oh, As it falls……… That is all, it won’t get any worse That’s our selves nailing coffins Digging our own graves Is that all?.. Are we digging our own graves?

The Blade 03:29
We met each other in a somber Summer that felt like winter My life before her tasted bitter But then within her shelter felt better She gave me a dose that I couldn't hold And I broke out off control when left alone She poured out a bleeding That came with the blade I slipped in the poison deep into my veins We grew dependent of one another Nothing else mattered The world around us started to scatter But you cannot live like that forever She gave me a dose that I couldn't hold And I broke out off control when left alone She poured out a bleeding That came with the blade I slipped in the poison deep into my veins We were mostly dead before the verdict was read And all we knew is we were doomed And in the noose You can't run, no. I ain't who held the blade But still I am to blame.

Astronauts 02:59
I was going to be an astronaut You were going to be a star We were going to conquer the world and Carve our names on Mars Tell me what happened to all the words we used to preach Tell me what happened to the dreams we all believed *When we worked at the warehouse* by the railroad tracks Sugar cane and alcohol, rum for the middle class I was going to be an astronaut You were going to be a star We were going to conquer the world and Carve our names on Mars Explain where all those ideas ended up Spell it out because we were going out reach for the sky It ain’t over yet no, not until we pass Fiery hearts and alcohol, spikes for the middle class  I was going to meet the Armstrongs You were going to be a movie star We were going to conquer the world and Carve our names on Mars We are not finished yet babe We can still get so far We ain’t done until we’re dead let’s Carve out names on Mars

I was born when out came the wolves Destined to a life on the run Feeling like an exile as if I had a choice Yeah, I was born when out came the wolves Locked in a cell with open doors I could escape but I would fall All my love belongs To These four trusty chords I we were born with a scent of teenage years Up against a brave new world and so many fears Feeling like an exiles because of what we hear Yeah, I were born with a scent of teenage years Locked in a cell with open doors We could escape but we would fall All my love belongs To These four trusty chords All my love belongs To These four trusty chords This is our generation this is an open door This is our time to sore This radical obligation, it is all we know This is what we’re born for Locked in a cell with open doors We could escape but we would fall All my love belongs To These four trusty chords All my love belongs To These four trusty chords
