My Achilles Heel

Givin’ a shit
I am givin’ too much of it
Havin’ a fit
I hope I can stand it
This waitin’ is driving me insane
Think I might need some medicine, man!
Givin’ a shit
I am givin’ too much of it
Havin’ a fit
I hope I can stand it
I see fire where it doesn’t belong
That’s how I know that something
is seriously wrong
But who wants to hear it?
Givin’ a shit
I am givin’ too much of it
Havin’ a fit
I hope I can stand it
Pretty sure that I’m really dumb
Cause all I want to do is get seriously numb
Not to feel
Now you know my achilles heel
But who wants to hear it?

Lost all the will to fight
Whatever comes, Whatever might
Fallen for the sake of falling
And I know somehow
We’ll find each other
I know
Floating around the troposphere
Heard: “How many fingers am I holding up?”
Circling high for the sake of freedom
Ravenous sight
Keep it mind that
you might not like what you find
Keep it down
I’m mulling it over

Pull The Pin

The pin goes in
And the pin comes out
Oh no!
Tell me what it’s all about!
You pull the pin
Then you get a little greedy
It’s something you’ll have to learn the hard way
Howlin' at the moon

Counterpart

Inside the hollow chambers
Or stuck on busy highways
Holding a vial when it shatters
Inside a vase
She makes me laugh
He is my hero
Let’s hope that we’re all generic
An autograph in ones and zeros
How futuristic
So sadistic
Not sure if I’ve ever been myself
A giant snake that eventually eats itself
Another time, Another place
Another mind, Another face
Buy in to what you see
Live out your desires
Vicariously
Lost personality
The perfect other me
If we’d ever meet
We’d be buddies
No thanks, I’ll pass on confrontation
‘Cause of something
you failed to mention
So right this way
We’ll make it easy
Have we got your attention?

Well I’m sure you’ve heard
It’s not what it seems
It’s a common expression
Whatever it means
And who knows who’s telling the truth
If you’re wrong of course
You could be the source of the problem
They burned out your eyes
And then set you loose
On the city built on lies
Where they’ll proceed
To cut out your heart
Cause if you can’t lie
You can’t be a part of the problem
But, oh my Love!
I know you won’t see it this way
So, oh my Love!
Let’s just walk away…
Well you’re right
It’s all a big joke
If you take it too serious
You’re going to choke
Yea I’m actually pretty exhausted
You’ve had your fun
But look what you’ve started
Yea, I’m mad but just trying to be cool
It’s all about the quick fix
I’m really a tool
I live this way just to get laid
And when I am done here
I better get paid
But, oh my Love!
I know you won’t see it this way
So, oh my Love!
Let’s just walk away…
Everything I say is a lie
Don’t ask me questions
Don’t’ ask me why
You sound foolish
When speaking your mind
You never feel shame
‘cause you’re deaf dumb and blind
But relax
We’re not keeping score
And there’s nothing out here
For you anymore
But, oh my Love!
I know you won’t see it this way
So, oh my Love!
Let’s just walk away…

How to suppose?
How do we react?
It could be a ploy
It could be a trap
Tell me all the things
I should not become
Tell me all the ways we are only one
Hold the door

Hubris

Givin’ up
All control
I’m going round and round
Bare my soul
(self induced lobotomy / Garbage of humanity)
It will hurt a bit
I know
But that’s OK
(So? I know. So it’s OK)
I’m a food
Food for you
(Appropriating apathy / Self proclaimed authority)
It’s the most that I can do
And it won’t help a bit
I know
and that’s OK
(So? I know. So it’s OK)
-----
Gonna live my life in a bubble
‘Cause everything
scares the shit out of me
It doesn’t matter
how much of it I can see
if I try really hard
I can count up to three
One..
Two….
Three.
(it’s OK)
---
I’ve no idea what I’m doing
But I’ll do it anyway
Ok?

Wasted Time
03:03

Had a fallin’ out
With a friend of mine
She don’t wanna make up
I guess I crossed the line
If I was dying of thirst
She wouldn’t give me a drink
If I was drowning out at sea
She would let me sink
She’s very friendly
Cause she has lots of friends
I’m sure she thinks of you
But of course it all depends
It’s nothing personal
Some people tend to hide
She said that you were special
It sounded kind of snide
So I’ve wasted your time.
Have I wasted mine?
Am I wastin’ her time?
Is she wastin’ mine?
Some things we won’t remember
A feeling’s not a fact
Time was my own memory
And time will get it back
Wasted time
(toilet flushing)
(weeping in shower)
