the war is forever (we are taking sides at this time)

I'm dissecting a kid right from the scene
picking apart his every mistake
he calls them words, cool words
i call him a cab crash
going everywhere, gone nowhere
really stalled on E with fuel but lost in his head
the world just flipped into oblivion
and he's dreaming of that one girl, two girls, three
they think these boys care
but they're just babies in the mosh pit
strung out on weekends on the living room floor
high and drunk and dead to the world
but the cameras taking myspace pics
and its sooo cool to be a model of indifference right now
drunk and asleep and your friends think you're god
but you aren't even a prince my friend
light weight little son of a bitch
had a few beers and you think you're cool
i'm not straight edge, but i'm hanging on the cliff
pushing labels on your fellow humans like they are food
hanging carcasses in a meat shop, well thats not too far from the truh
but just fall into a surprise, fuck labels man
just taste it and if you don't like it, stay away and sleep on
but you're no better by saying the scene owns you
and kicking back to a few buds and beers
this is NOT the way to get friends

if it doesn't make sense, chances are you don't matter

Another fasion just short of failure
and it's passing like a disease that everyone wants
and i'm just the number she deleted from her phone
i'm the incomplete attempt at conforming
i am a modern day massacre known as acceptance
the peer pressure is thick in this room
gather around the stage and tick tock, your head like a clock
keeping up with the rhythm of the drummers soul
as his sticks hit his publicly displayed organs
everything we are breathing is the product
of inhales exhaled at the exact moment we inhale exhales
the description can only be explained as air
and we're living off the wasted breaths of all of our brethren
whether they reject us or not, we are them, they are us
and we have all just been fighting over molecules
everybody will get their fair share
you can keep complaining but the dance is going stale
windmill away at the ground and give it the 1 2 kick!
i like the way she karate chops my gut before she makes love to me

this is for the hopeless romantics and the mad scientists alike

Take if off, put the blame on me
One last taste of your biggest regret
face your mistakes head on, sleep with them for a night
wake up the next morning and look in disgust
my naked body proving you(r) wrong
you said i was everything you hated
but i am everything you said you loved last night
whisper another lie about how we are perfect together
like a sore thumb on a broken foot
pepper in the wound, sneezing the salt
the sunset showing through the ruined skyscrapers
last night i saw my city reduced to ashes
this collection of chaotic crashes become cloverfield
the call over for the comeback, the invite for one more night
show me the way to the bed, show me the way around the inside of your head
and let me figure out what it means to be in love
the mathematics behind lying to you
the way to steal your heart and keep it in a cage
and you love every minute of it
and its so fucking crazy when we're lying together
something about this fake fucking i love you feels real
hypothetically hypocritical hyperactive hygiene
the next best thing to hit the scene
well breakdown
BREAKDOWN!

exaggerate our memories for an hour or two

The sun sets with the sky still hooked
and regrets are clouding over
the rain hits the desert land
and i am wishing i was holding your hand
i saw you smile like an open door
my invitation for a dance, even a kiss or two
the way you feel in my arms is the way
heaven would feel in your hands
but it's hell on my arm to write about you
each and every night before i fall asleep
and my dreams become your home
the place where you are free to roam
the sounds of sleep are science to my ears
and my eyes are moving to the beats
a disco behind closed eyes and open arms
and dancing to the sound of sirens and fire alarms
and we are entangled like twisted skin sweetheart
on this couch and we can't be torn apart

we are the gossip committee, leave the truth at the door

For every new girl, there's another fake smile
Each and every week, there's a new style
I can't keep this up, I think i'm gonna be sick
I can't forget her, without her this doesn't mean shit
it's just another car on the road, no trip in store
running on the edge of the beach, fall into the shore
her skin dripping wet with small drips of her regret
and i'm dying in the sun to just forget
but my memory is so much sharper than i thought
and what's in store for me can not be bought
we're all saving our breaths like we're holding our fire
the lungs and guns drawn to the ground
she's so beautiful, she is the image and i am the sound
at the top of my lungs i will whisper her name
and in my slightest of hope, she will do the same

Turning on me vs. Turning you on

Crashing again like it always does
Nothing good can happen
I walked into this thing
The glass is half empty and i'm just a fool
but you showed me it was filled to the top
now its at a dead end, letting it drop
I'm trying to pick up all the pieces
without cutting any skin
This is the kind of fuck up
that i'm getting again
My heart is a mistake
and it turns into an achievement
with each break
you're doing the whole world a favor
I am the cancer you are the cure
and tonight you have stopped me
you have made the world pure

habitual obituary

I've opened myself right in front of you
I have tried to tell you over and over again
but you just can't believe a word of it
so i'll save my precious breath
and believe every word of yours
I am a complete waste of life
I am nothing more than a pile of shit
I am a cancer, a disease, an infection, a plague
I am nothing more than a trendfollower
I am only trying to be cool
all of this begins to enter my body, heart, mind, soul
the negativity sets in, now i will tear myself apart
with both hands, for better or worse
this isn't a wedding, it's more like a funeral
only everyone is smiling
consequences are like an anchor around my heart
void all happiness inside, i have been brought back down
the angel has lost its wings, and the gates have been shut
the only place to rest now is the grave
they dig deep holes for heavy hearts
it's time to sink or save myself trying
