Decline 02:30
Bound, I'm bound in place The shoes I wear are weighted down Below the laces I always did expect That I will not grow old because the World will end It seems it's coming true The only thing I've been doing is Feel guilty, wonder why Do my habits mean our demise Or just a drop in an ocean of Decline
2.
Braindead 02:14
Braindead in the Midwest Hung on a Sunday I knew could not last Up next, video clips so My head stays on your hips Half as short, twice as sweet Ratio to torture me Scared to move, have to leave I know you'll be fine Because your brain is wired right Mine is still fried It's not switched to your side All my habits broken All my thoughts at ease How my mouth would curl If only you were curled with me Braindead, too scared to text Too scared to find out if this is finished yet
3.
Doomed 02:10
Compromise seems useless Blow my top but the future's fruitless Bury the run-off and the waste It takes our place Doomed but it's a good day so I forget I'm Doomed but it's a good day so I forget I'm Doomed but it's a good day so I'll survive There will only be a few things left to love Somebody or some prescription Some money or one conviction Telling myself telling myself telling myself Doomed but it's a good day so I went for a Walk found a rhythm that plays and says I'm Doomed but it's a good day so I forget I'm Doomed but it's a good day so I forget I'm Totally fucked but the weather's nice Am I safe if I close my Doomed but it's a good day so I forget I'm Doomed but it's a good day so I forget I'm Doomed but it's a good day so I forget I'm
4.
There's no one special on my mind My brain is loving all the free time and red wine I supply I'm surprised I thought I would be evergreen When you saw me in such a rush My china heart was smoking camel crush It cracked when touched My voice still does But now I'm never evergreen We'll meet again in the spring time My cherry blossoms will be blooming fine I still won't pine The poplar kind I'm never ever evergreen
5.
$$ 01:42
You want it, don't need it Take a breath, repeat it Money money, you want to eat Can't afford what you can't reheat You want it, don't sweat it You're gonna be indebted Money money, you'd better wait Buy pasta don't buy steak You want it, you can't afford it If you could you'd ignore it Money money, you're never pleased All spent still yanking on my leash You want it, you can't have it You'd better break bad habits Money money, you'd better think Do you work so you can buy drinks
6.
Only Sun 01:44
So many bags of plastic under my kitchen sink I thought they'd all be useful when I was buying things Like groceries and tylenol But I've been taking out the trash Less and less and less often I buy milk and cereal a lot Winter's come my only sun And I won't go outside And every single bottle behind my bathroom mirror is evidence of sickness or blemishes that cleared in January But it's July So I'll be taking out the trash More and more often But all of my medicine survives Winter's gone my only sun But soon it will arrive
7.
If the warmth of my skin Was perfectly balanced The length of my hair Was exact Every move my body made Counted a beat from some ballet Every inch of my speech held some weight Total Control Would it add up to a whole Or a half I'd sample the range of All my emotions The flavors I'd like would be sweet But I'm so glad for bitter Though I'd never pick it first And that's why I'm not choosing What I'm served Total Control Would it add up to a whole Or a half

China Heart 01:07
One more Accident One more broken glass I Have to mend Not for selling but for Giving Fix my china heart for Giving To some one new
