1.
poisoned earth death to all the animals and savages like us remain to ruin and to reign tyrannical, unstoppable the havoc we wreak and all that which we steal go on burn it all to hell time will only tell chemical ocean death to all the whales and dolphins they rot on the beaches where rich people sunbathe gone without a trace, we have now erased
2.
this vacant life leave everything behind wandering blind day blurs into night these vines and thorns my body they adorn cutting through to bone you cut so close to home I'm so bored I'm so adored but I stand ignored I can't afford this vacant life the shame you place on me my lack of spine and apathy the knives you twist in deep your secrets I won't keep I'm so bored I'm so adored but I stand ignored I can't afford this vacant life I'm so bored
3.
tar angel fill your heart with smoke with flowers pretty flowers untangle this twisted widow's web of woe unravel the chain undress before me curses and hexes bind me from demons and vultures like you a vicious new moon pale and so beautiful another wayward soul left to wander left to hunger alone forever and ever and ever and ever curses and hexes bind me from demons and vultures like you tar angel fill your heart with smoke with flowers pretty flowers

Devil Baby 03:22
devil baby trick or treat your cover's blown now you're just a freak haunted lover restless dream shake you awake now shake off this disease purgatory gut this empty out of me I'm burning I freeze purgatory spill the love right out of me hemorrhage into the sea brimstone and fire you're my desire bat wings and spider webs my devil baby's obsessed red eyes in candlelight my devil baby's possessed purgatory gut this empty out of me I'm burning I freeze purgatory spill the love right out of me hemorrhage into the sea brimstone and fire you're my desire you're my desire
5.
miles away I'll sleep for days I'll drink the sea I'll stay awake boy in a cage torn away forget my name undressed, unchained wild heart untamed boy in a cage unrestrained in love, in chains beat the bars shake him till he sings boy in a cage
6.
shade the sun I'm casting shadows feel it burn the light, it scatters shield my eyes you're casting shadows leave me unscathed leave me in tatters you're so cold I'll leave you in the dark so crooked in your ways so hideous in your mistakes oh so radiant when no one's eyes were watching there's no hope here there's no hope here so spiteful in the way you say in time, in time it goes away so daunting in your mood of black turn red, turn pink but never turn back and I sit here watching and I sit here waiting waiting for a miracle to come there's no hope here there's no hope here shade the sun I'm casting shadows feel it burn the light, it scatters shield my eyes you're casting shadows leave me unscathed leave me in tatters you're so cold I'll leave you in the dark I'll leave you in the dark
7.
Still Clocks 03:15
mindless I feel nothing again hide out weightless waiting for someone strange watching always watching still clocks timeless ageless weird love enfolds me bad luck behind me feel this feel nothing still clocks I am killing time
8.
blank canvas empty bottles torn up letters there is no past dark lover broken friend cheers to the memories the party must end walk away erase my name run for days and days and days and days drive your car into the sea drowning me the death of the party pardon me no future only time cracks in the pavement this hour is mine walk away forget my face run for days and days and days and days drive your car into the sea drowning me the death of the party pardon me drown
9.
jigsaw love junkie hearts rusted in time these monoliths scratching at the surface leaves us barren and so ravenous for more I want more strange burials old blood rituals taunting the ghouls howling at the moon ruin me, my armageddon shards of past cut like eulogies I'll sing you to sleep oh sing me to sleep for eternity strange burials old blood rituals taunting the ghouls howling at the moon I'll bury you
