14 Leaf Clover
It starts with the end of a best friend and nothing in your arms
But your head is a weapon of delusional harm
And now the house is all burned down and you've gone south
Kid, shut your mouth and drop another 100 pounds
Hope and loathing
Knowing you're living in a dream
Alone in the zone and broken
Living in a dream
The ghosts joke over and over
Their words are forming now
A bizarre, chartreuse, 14 leaf clover of melody and sound
A clown
A king who wears his crown upside down now
And pounds his fist until the rainbows all come down
And loathing
Knowing we're living in a dream
Alone in this broken home and living in a dream
Am I sinking?
Am I singing?
Am I sinking?
Am I singing?
Hope and loathing
Knowing you're living in a dream
Alone in the zone and broken
Living in a dream
You're living in a dream
You're living in a dream
You're living in a dream

Translucence
You jerked awake
Falling backwards in your bed again
What did you take?
What did the voice just say?
Forgot your name
Counting backwards in your head from eight
You couldn’t wait
What did the doctor say?
Oh no
You’re not a ghost
Yet you’re just as cold and invisible
You’re a black hole without a soul
But you’re just as dense and invincible
You couldn’t say
But you could illustrate this failure state
It’s such a waste
Another rainy day
Oh no
You’re not a ghost
Yet you’re just as cold and invisible
You’re a black hole without a soul
But you’re just as dense and invincible
Sitting on your chest and nesting
Never getting rest again I guess
This lesson’s neverending
Translucence is happiness
Oh no
You’re not a ghost
Yet you’re just as cold and invisible
You’re a black hole without a soul
But you’re just as dense and invincible
Oh no
You’re not a ghost
Yet you’re just as cold and invisible
You’re a black hole without a soul
But you’re just as dense and invincible

Gravis
When I was young, ghoulish and stupid
Foolishly Cupid hit me in the knee
Oh, how they laughed at all of my passion
Became an assassin
A kraken
Taking aim at pain
You met me standing in the rain
You took me in and learned my name
And you could take it
Take it all away
And I can take it to the grave
Asteroids and lollipops
There’s nothing that you can’t crush
There’s nothing that you can’t crush
When I got stung, I became a mutant
Totally useless, I crashed to the sea
But with that splash, I became a Captain
But none of that matters if you can’t stand
Stand by Me
You caught me falling in the rain
You pulled me in and learned my pain
And you could take it
Take it all away
And I can take it to the grave
Asteroids and lollipops
There’s nothing that you can’t crush
There’s nothing that you can’t crush
Asteroids and lollipops
There’s nothing that you can’t crush
There’s nothing that you can’t crush
There’s nothing that you can’t crush
That you can’t crush

Let it Go

Let it Go
Glaring at a sea of stars tonight
Gazing back at all the scars inside
A thousand points of brilliant light
A thousand suns I’d like to fight
Let it go
Let it go
But the fire’s burning out of control
Oh, I know
But you gotta let it go
There’s only so much rope
Just let it go
Digging through the circuit boards tonight
Just amazed at all the parts inside
A thousand points of failure, right?
A thousand things to check tonight
Let it go
Let it go
Sir, the sparks are bursting out of control
Oh, I know
But you gotta let it go
There’s only so much code
Just let it go
Hey!
Don’t mind me
Just in another life come find me
I’ll be wryly smiling
Somewhere mining silver lining
Let it go
Let it go
Yo, ya boi is turnt and outta control
Oh, I know
But you gotta let it go
There’s only so much hope
Just let it go
The frog is gonna croak
Just let it go
One more for the road?
No

Quotients
The teeth are grinding all night long
Singing songs and planting bombs
But in the morning they’ll be gone
Wake me up and prove me wrong
The puppets mumbled on and on
The truth is you played all of ‘em
But in the morning you’ll be gone
Wake me up and prove me wrong
I wanna be so wrong
No emotions
Just explosions
No emotions
Just oceans
The program’s moving right along
The colors correspond to song
But in the morning they’ll be gone
Wake me up and prove me wrong
Oh, it’s just Othello 101
You might be brighter than the sun
But in the morning you’ll be gone
Wake me up and prove me wrong
I wanna be so wrong
No emotions
Just explosions
No emotions
Just oceans
I know the guy that tied the wires
He probably knew what you would do
But in the end it’s your decision
Cut red, orange, yellow, green and blue
For you
Kaboom!
No emotions
Just explosions
No emotions
Just oceans
No emotions
Just explosions
No emotions
Just quotients

Not if
The shock is just another wave
How did the lemonade get pink though really?
You couldn’t pick another day?
Six thousand six hundred and sixty ways that I can break
Waving away the crashing waves
Not if, but when you go again
Let the snake eyes roll a poison pen
Turn the venom into cinnamon
Not if, but when you go again
Not if, but when you go again
Oh, did you think you could escape?
It’s your All Summer in a Day, forever
The ugly children got their way
But now they bow before The King Who Rained
And I would take all of those flowers to your grave
Not, if but when you go again
Let the snake eyes roll a poison pen
Turn the venom into cinnamon
Not if, but when you go again
Not if, but when you go again
Endless oceans
Broken roller coaster motions
Going up or down?
Friendless, gauche, you choked
Jump roping with explosives
Blowing up and coming down
Not, if but when you go again
Let the snake eyes roll a poison pen
Turn the venom into cinnamon
Not if, but when you go again
Not if, but when you go again
Let the snake eyes roll a poison pen
Turn the venom into cinnamon
Not if, but when you go again
Not if, but when you go again

Teen Creature
Off you go!
Or so the Captain crowed
He wrote all his notes in code
And went with the wendigo
It’s his episode, igloo and Alamo
Heart of an Eskimo
Hosting the Holy Ghost
Did the season just change?
Or was it you?
Here in your Hunter’s Moon cocoon
Entombed in your room
Imbued in a tune
Dude from the Vantablack Lagoon
Don’t go geeking out on me, Teen Creature
Don’t go geeking out on me
All for one
One for oblivion
If you wanna see it come undone
You’re gonna wanna speak in tongue
No one’s ever won
Wondering what stage they’re on?
There’s an urchin with a certain charm
Hiding where the curtains aren’t
Did the record just flip?
Or was it you?
Is this G sharp, or cheap perfume?
Drawing you in and pulling you through
But what is The Black Hole telling you?
Don’t go geeking out on me, Teen Creature
Don’t go geeking out on me
Don’t go geeking out on me, Teen Creature
Don’t go geeking out on me
Eyes just opened
You’ve awoken something ancient in the deep
Menacingly swimming underneath the figure skater in the rink
These frozen fingers clawing desperately through ice, so they can see
Me take you in my arms and tear you into pieces
Hand to Jesus
Don’t go geeking out on me, Teen Creature
Don’t go geeking out on me
Don't go geeking out on me
Don’t go geeking out on me, Teen Creature
Don’t go geeking out on me

Boring
All my friends are gathered here together
Spacing out forever
Getting high, dividing words
It’s a curse
Your hearse
Nothing worse than Heaven
Something worth forgetting behind every single verse
It’s absurd
You heard?
The sky is raining birds
But it gets worse
The jerk is boring through the Earth
As you fall away
Everything is changing, but it’s all the same
There’s no use explaining
You just fall away
All my thoughts are scattered here together
I made a ransom letter
But you couldn’t make a call
All in all
The ball could’ve fallen better
Wish you never met her
If you ever met at all
Did you catch the crawl?
The writing on the wall
Cause it’s my fault
Gestalts keep turning into salt
As you fall away
Everything is changing, but it’s all the same
There’s no use complaining
You just fall away

Zerorez
Got what you needed packed into a case
X marks the target
Chasing you through space
Control the demolition and orchestrate the blaze
Oh, did you meet abyss’s gaze?
Every chorus is a lethal weapon
You got pointed in the wrong direction
Through the window, do the hit, then get away
Nothing is the name
Hey!
Listen closely, there’s something you should know
I am the king who sunk a thousand boats
Cause they could never take me where I could never go
I took the wheel and took us both
Every chorus is a lethal weapon
You got pointed in the wrong direction
Through the window, do the hit, then get away
Nothing is the name
All the ghosts are color coded
Plant explosives where the rainbow ends
Bring me all your dead and broken records
It’s closing, It’s closing, It’s closing, It’s closing
This is the edge of the dream
This is the edge of the dream
Where the rainbow ends
Every chorus is a lethal weapon
You got pointed in the wrong direction
Through the window, do the hit, then get away
Nothing is the name
Nothing is the name
Nothing is the name

Hypnagogia
Chin got wrist tickets to Daydream Paralysis
Get this, they’re opening for Eyelid’s Nemesis
Time flies like I do
You should be getting nervous
I’m sorry, I’m not sorry
You deserve this
Hey!
It’s alive
And now I see the world through both our eyes
Surprise!
You never even needed the disguise
I’m right
And nothing’s ever gonna change my mind
And I die slightly more with every line I write
Shoegazing at Hissing Hypno Ventriloquists
You had to cut out, but The Wrist that Slit Back ripped
You flamed the cake, but the candles just exploded
Filleted and they barely even noticed
Hey!
It’s a life
Yeah, LOL cause I can’t work a knife
Am I right?
It’s a riot poltergeists bite my insides
Out of spite we’re packing up the cameras and the lights
Tonight!
It’s not what you like, but what you leave behind
This mine is ours
And the hours mind their manners
These drops add up to
The Sea that Swallows Planets
Hey!
In the sky
Rainbow lightning strikes to say goodbye
Please don’t cry
Another drop and you’ll never get dry
Wonder why?
Yeah, so do I
But I learned not to pry
Vaporized
I hope I had the time of your life
