My dear, you cannot live in isolation from the human race you know...

I'm gonna eat this whole damn globe, shooting hoops through a black hole, shooting stars that I don't know, stopping by to say hello I'm in total control of my life, wish that someone would tell me I'm right I'm in total control of my life, just need someone to tell me I'm right I'm just gonna go , try and dig a nice hole where i, can get a grip, try and, get a hold there are things we can't control, some shit you'll never know, so go ahead and don't believe me, give up your soul you're all out of your minds you're all out of it x2 I'm in total control of my life, wish that someone would tell me I'm right I'm in total control of my life, just need someone to tell me I'm right how'd I end up like, stain' home friday night not out on the town, when there's so many girls I like I'm in total control of my life, wish that someone would tell me I'm right I'm in total control of my life, just need someone to tell me I'm right Tell me I'm wrong, that will be the last time you'll talk, Left still in the dark your shadow outlined in chalk your so out of touch you don't breathe anymore you just suck the air out of me and you can't get enough you don't need anymore just try and rely on me I'm in total control of my life, wish that someone would tell me I'm right I'm in total control of my life, just need someone to tell me I'm right

I'm a monster I'm a beast, I'm a freak thats why they kept me on a leash, underneath, that's why I kept you in the sheets, pretty please, don't go, our love was not free, for all the people that I killed, that let me walk, for all the blood on my hands, they let me wash, for all the dead and the damned, dirty thoughts, I can't look back, as I'm caught Maybe I had it coming, like a dead soul haunts me (x2) For every ounce of pride, that I show, got a couple broken hearts you'll never know, Got my wrist chained, to a pole, now you're in total control, the bad vibes keep, catching up, you see me see you but it's not enough, throw away the key, pass me a note, and all it said was X O X O Maybe I had it coming, like a dead soul haunts me (x2)

In the floorings where I want To keep u in a box Not physically of course Its why I never leave the porch And I Won't go outside, Its too good for me, I hide Not mentally of course Its why I never clean the porch I can feel any other way Its all the fucking same, Has that been said Before, Lookin' sickly on our porch We're mindless, just saying Spend our lives down at the morgue the wasted and the Bored All Looked healthy on their porch I think I can feel the force, use my mind to paint the porch, the universe my power source, havin' tea with dinosaurs I don't know which way is north, goin' down south on these whores, brush your teeth and do your chores, after that go clean the porch In the mornings when I want To get u out that box Push u down onto the ground Getchu in a headlock We're violent, just playing There's more to what I'm sayin Much more than anything Much less than in ur dreams

See Me 02:28
why else would you see me, why else would you have come around, it's too bad that I just of that, why else would you see me, why else would you have come around, its too bad that I just thought of that now When we were too young
 Had way too much fun
 Now its all in the past,
 We were too far gone
 To remember the days 
That's what u always said 
Like a stranger in a way 
In the strangest of ways why else would you see me, why else would you have come around, it's too bad that I just of that, why else would you see me, why else would you have come around, its too bad that I just thought of that now now she's too torn,
 Just a stranger in the morning 
can't stand it when your around
 And u ask me to leave,
 Please baby please
 Throw me out of my own home did I have a chance, we had fun the 3 times we went out, did I have a chance? I somehow feel like I've missed out why else would you see me, why else would you have come around, it's too bad that I just of that, why else would you see me, why else would you have come around, its too bad that I just thought of that now

Goin' At It 05:44
Going at it alone, nobody knows, that summer was cold, that's why it hardly rose, and oh how we grow, they say you're looking' so old, I can explain, these are my grandfathers clothes and when you meet, someone not me, Ill be just fine, but he'll be missing his teeth, oh how we bleed, I love when you plea, not cause you meant it, but cause you're on your knees thought I had it all, but I had nothing, kickin' holes in the wall, just to feel something, still it goes on, on, on can we not stop it? you know that we lost it Going at it with friends, you know how that ends, think you're in love, how we love to pretend, so you leave me alone, no more texts on my phone, erase all the truth, cause we can't let em know, I can't blame you, I moved on too soon, so I take the blame, for this horrible day Thought I had it all, but I had nothing, kickin' holes in the wall, just to feel something, can we not stop it? you know that we lost it This time the fall, lies with me, I took the blame, for this horrible day, Cause I, walk a thin line, while you got god, I see no use in lying

Halloween 04:15
They stripped you of the fat on your tongue 
I think they felt that you needed to belong.
 I think they felt we needed to be wrong, 
I think they felt we needed to be gone. They stripped you of the will to believe,
 Now theyre hiding in your dreams
 Now they're. Busting down ur door 
Colored in blood, 
 Spray painted on floor Shooting stars like laughing skulls
 No one worth saving
We're all pretty dull
 Everyone is perfect 
Lulled in the mull
 Everyone is perfect 
Lulled in the mull Strip you down to skin and bone, hear about shit that you don't wanna know, yeah you got money, but you ain't got a soul, he said you're gonna want money when you're creepy and old Strip you down right to the bone, hear about shit that you don't wanna know, yeah you got money, but you ain't got a soul, he said you're gonna want money when you're creepy and old Shooting stars like laughing skulls
 No one worth saving
We're all pretty dull 
Everyone is perfect 
Lulled in the mull
 Everyone is perfect 
Lulled in the mull I don't really know anybody in the room, no I don't really know anybody in the room, saw her looking at me, said I'mma know her soon, she said iunno, iunno anyone in the room, so I said, eh you're just like me, iunno em too, just me and you, just me and, just me and you, just me and...

I got a lot, left for no one, cold blood stung, under the light, I got a lot, but it's not enough, I wonder if my heads screwed on right, In the heat of the night, I can't go on, do you feel alright? In the heat of the night, I can't go on, can you see the light? I've seen a lot of nothing in this life, and what I've seen I guess I just don't like, I felt the pain so much that I feel numb, been dull for so long that I feel dumb, and it hurts me just to breathe, and it pains you just to see, that it hurts me when you leave, my wasted youth, escaping me and when I wake up, long night, fucked up, two timed, too many times, to be kind, and I won't let up, cause I'm waiting' until In the heat of the night, I can't go on, do you feel alright? In the heat of the night, I can't go on, can you see the light?

Judge 03:19
They say its so easy to judge, but it's hard to judge falling in love, they say only believe what you see, but I only believe what I touch I hope that you catch me, I might even turn myself in, cause it's been too long love, and I'd like to see you again, They say its so easy to judge, but it's hard to judge falling in love, they say only believe what you see, but I only believe what I touch I kept eye on the door, a couple hours or more, just to get away, it seems my judgements off, bad karma, spent it all, moneys gone, casualty my minds a body part, broken and kept apart, it wouldn't know its me, its never seen a face, or known to love, it doesn't know its anything They say its so easy to judge, but it's hard to judge falling in love, they say only believe what you see, but I only believe what I touch
