Track Name: Jungle Of Love
I simper in spades
There's attack that I intake
Do you just forget all the missteps that you make?

Always late, planning delaying
You're kind of a flake
Well, alright. I let slip some slights
But that's barely a bite of what I do.

It's like you look right through
And skip over all the good things I do for you
Now tell me why don't you
Give me what I want

Yeah, I do in fact know
That you think I should grow up
Your modesty's too much
Bad touch... Blow up

Oh I never wear out my welcome
Because I I
I I don't tay thing twice
I don't say things twice
Like you do

It's like I look right through
And skip over all the good things you do for me too
Now tell me why don't you
Just take what you want when you want to

You give me love
But what I want more is someone to live for
Someone to die for
Wait, is something to live for something to die for?
Give me a reason, something to fall for

It's like you look right through
And skip over all the good things I do for you
Now don't let me need to be rescued
Just give me what I want when I want you

It's like I look right through
And skip over all the good things you do for me too
But don't you forget who you rescue
Just give me what I want when I want you.
Track Name: Note To Self
Stop saying you're over everyone
And stop saying it's easy
Your moods make a morsel of your fun
Yeah, you're safe, but you're still sorry

Stop thinking you're warm to anyone
And stop taking it easy
Your mouth makes a mockery
Of some heartfelt thing you view bleakly

Now, I'm drifting into doubt
I'm never coming out

You go from bitter, baseless pain
To peace: sand in your fingers
Stop letting confusion turn to rage
Find the good kind that lingers

Now, I'm drifting into doubt
Purpose or without,
I'm never coming out

Oh

If they make you choose, gun to your head
Just say "hey, pull the trigger"
You should go quiet as you search what's said
For all the things unconsidered

Stop shouting, you're deaf to your own sound
Just like Beethoven's last bits
Each friendship you somehow run aground
Is a new lucid limit

Now, I'm drifting into doubt
With purpose or without
I'm never coming out

Oh.
Track Name: Churchill
All life's fake lessons screw me
'Cause everything can't be fixed
Like a minute long montage from a movie
Over some cheesy synth-pop indie song

All we take is the instant
And disregard that the moment's truth belies
So that Churchill named Winston
Is halfway around the world with his pants in his eyes

I know
You're taking it so bad
But I just never get it
And when caught I say "So what..."
"I lie..."

I been caught in a lie
In it's web I been wasting my northern time
Cause I caught it alive
My white whale is a wooden boy inside
It's wooden inside

My apology splatters
Into some kind of overt funeral pyre
'Cause I mislead what matters
'Till you truly believe that I'm half on fire

I been shot in the eye
And while bleeding, been wasting my father's time
'Cause I don't even try
To feel something while he just prays to the sky
He prays to the sky
Track Name: Way Too Soon
You say we can't do this when we're older
Don't tell me that you're going sober
Wait, don't tell me that we're going sober

'Cause I lied when I said I'd do anything for ya
But that don't mean I don't adore ya
Quit telling me I don't adore ya

'Cause you are more my world than anything

You say it shouldn't be this hard to please me
I never said it would be easy
Did I ever say it would be easy?

And I know, I won't go, you're a good man
But the world is whatever it is
And it doesn't matter what you've got planned

But I know you, this is no preference
This is a "fuck off if you can't get this"
How like you, the subtle ruthless sea

You're taking me out with the instant
But soon all your hate will be distant

And someday, way too soon
You'll wake up, crack of noon
And it's alright

'Cause I will swear to you
That poison is no rescue
And I'm alright

No no no.

You say you hate the cold of the clean way
You know I'll be there with you each day
Of course I'll be there with you each day

And I know, it's one more weight to depress you
But all of your burdens I take too
To bear all your burdens it takes two

'Cause you are more my world than anything

You say you feel like playing red rover
Are you telling me you're coming over?
Don't tell me that you're coming over

'Cause I lied when I told you I was sober
Quit telling me that we are over
Quit telling me that we're so over

Yeah I knew it, this was no preference
This was a "fuck off if you can't get this"
How like you the subtle ruthless sea

You've taken me out in a instant
But soon all that hate will be distant

And some night, way too soon
You'll look up to see the moon and think "alright"

I love him, yes I do
But poison is his rescue

But that's so much arrant god damn bullshit
I am more than that.
Track Name: I Drink Your Milkshake
Don't tell me I'm built for nothing
But making jams in a jar
That settle slowly as tar
And don't sell me a spirit something

I buy a paperback
And give myself another smack
Then pick up soe of my own slack
I do lie on what I lack, ah

My reach to you is overlarge
I can preach to you but I have to charge

I can get what's true
As straight as a corkscrew
That I use to drink up my own head

And I can see clear ta
The brand new era
Of faceless heads on a web

Y'know, I'm a bitter fellow
Although, I lack any cause to be so.
Callow, it's no easy to swallow
High flow, but really I was going slow
Don't tell me that I should go slow

Don on me a brand new era
Of faceless heads on a world wide web
Speak up, I can barely hear ya

I am a fucker, not a lover
Don't wanna kiss under the covers
In a sickly smother
Like every amish other

My reach to you is overlarge
I can teach you, but I have to charge

Y'know, I'm a bitter fellow
Although, I lack any cause to be so.
Callow, it's no easy to swallow
High flow, but baby, I was going slow
Don't tell me that I should go slow

I can get what's true
As straight as a corkscrew
And I don't have the heart to look ahead

But I can see clear ta
The brand new era
Of faceless heads on a world wide web
