back at it
back at it again

back back at it again
can't forget
what has been
or what is comin'
back at it

always seems they got a
new angle to defend
back at it
back at it again
thinkin' they're right
just because they feel
feel like fightin'

Occlumency

do you think
maybe
despite
the fact that it's rare
that it just might be
that we are
under reacting
about just this one thing
need some occlumency
if we're ever gonna be
what we really are
I'm sure you
got my best interests
at heart
I'm sure you got my
best interests at heart
best interests at heart
but I'm afraid
you don't have
an accurate picture
what can you do
with an inaccurate picture
nothing personal
I just think that you might
blow
blow it up
blow it up
blow it up
blow it all all up
ah-ah-ah-ooh
ah-ah-ah-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh
ah-ah-ah-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh
and if you do
that's okay
and if you do
it's okay
I still

still love you

Now Would Be A Good Time
07:16

now would be a good time
for the satellite
to detect
a spaceship
comin' in
and them god aliens
to
step on out
tell us all about
the stars
tell us who we really are
and save us
from ourselves
we could use your help
we could use your help
we could use your help
they would listen
with pointed ears
say you got nothin'
to fear
now we're here
we got the cure
you can be sure
it's all gonna be okay
it's all gonna be okay
it's all gonna be okay
oh okay
when I grow up
when I grow up
when I grow up
when I grow up
I'm takin' you with me

Transmitting

thought I had a breakthrough
but I think
maybe I was just breakin' you
and hoverin' on the brink
of total collapse
like the financial system
like some complex set of tasks
very hard for experts to understand them
or was it my fault
somethin' I could avoid
or was it all my fault
sometimes I wish
I could go back
do something different
without havin' to face the facts
without havin' to face the past
you know we don't get better
we just get used to fuckin' up
it never gets better
just get used to fuckin' up
and fuckin' yourself
oh who's gonna help you now
oh who's gonna help you now
oh who's gonna help you now
don't have anything to offer
no concise words to say
all I know is I'll keep holding
hopin' one day I can let it all go
maybe just for a moment let it all go
maybe just for a moment let it all go
maybe just for a moment
just for a moment
just for a moment
I thought I saw a way out
I saw
there's gotta be
there's gotta be
someone
hears me
someone
who really hears me
and I
I I
I'm still singin'

Dreams From A Mall
05:45
|

|
I been dreamin'
of a mall
where all my thoughts
are bought and sold
and all I am
is spread out
from store
to store
from floor
to floor
and I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid
of being consumed
or running out of room
shop and save
don't step off the color tiles
plenty of room in the aisles
plenty of room
we've got a lot offer you

You're Gonna Kill Me
06:15
|
|||
|
first I met you
I think I had
a crush
and then I spent
more time with you
and now I'm in love
and then the next phase
is when I start to
be afraid
you're gonna kill me
you're gonna kill me
you're gonna kill me
you're gonna kill me
oh I hope so
at first it's all fun
fun and fuckin' games
pretty soon you can't remember
remember your fuckin' name
you're gonna kill me
you're gonna kill me
you're gonna kill me
you're gonna kill me
oh I hope so
oh I hope so
oh I hope so
oh I hope so
the little caterpillar
well he just eats and eats
and when he's had enough he turns
into soup
that's what you do
I hope
you're gonna kill me
you're gonna kill me
you're gonna kill me
you're gonna kill me
and we'll be reborn
no harm
no harm done

don't you think you found someone
don't you think you found someone
someone you could forgive
for givin' you the covid
someone you could be put
on a respirator
in the hopes
you'd get to see 'em later
well I hope you do
I hope you do
I really hope you do
cause I do
cause I do
it's true
you're gonna need someone
even if that someone
is you

FOMO

I was lookin' at the world
I was lookin' at my little world
and then I write it down
try to figure it out
then I write it down
try to figure it out
I don't wanna be left out
I don't wanna be left out
I don't wanna be left out
I was lookin' at the world
I was lookin' at the world
then I wrote it down
tried to figure it out
I wrote it down
tryin' to figure it out
I don't wanna be left out
I don’t wanna be left out
but I don't know what the fuck
you're talkin' about
I don't know what the fuck
you're talkin' about
seems like you got your head in the cloud
I don't know what you're talkin' about
think I'll take a little time now
I think I'll take a little time now
and let you try to figure me out
see how you do
see how you do
and who knows baby
who knows little baby
who knows who knows little baby
maybe
I'll come and cryin' to you
I wouldn't bet on it
I wouldn't hold my breath
I wouldn't wait around
till I was fuckin' dead
till I was fuckin' dead

Inside
07:38

can be hard to believe
in things people say
never get a look on
the inside
but if you could
what do you think
you would see
with me
I think I love you
much more than
you could or would
probably imagine
and if I
if I
put it all on the line
for you
what would you do
I see that cult you call
your family and
I'd kill 'em all
do they help you up
or do they drag drag you down
if you were bein' really honest
if you could somehow
have been
from
somewhere
else
well wouldn't you wanna try
wouldn't you wanna try it
you are so
much
more
than you
ever knew
as much as
he loves you
he could never
fit his arms
around you

sometimes I think about it
sometimes I feel stuck
sometimes I think about it
sometimes it's all too much
then I
