Mercurial Moments Erased
04:53
|
|||
Late hands fake plans locked out no chance
Out front out of frame failed stunt circling the drain
Head hurts scorched earth chipped tooth blank truth
Turnstile black eye Corbett Canyon style
With all that’s transpired
Lost in the fray
I can’t recall any difference it made
Through the mountains of fire
Locked in a gaze
I can’t recall those mercurial moments (erased)
Blank day spare changed changed lanes into your malaise
Self-doubt cropped out someone let your demons out
We can’t recant supply chain chain gang
Distilled the devolved unsolved on the blockchain
Head hurts scorched earth new trial new curse
False start falls apart your staggered haggard heart
Telltale thin skin walked in lucid
Clocked in checked out blocked in by more self-doubt

The Joy Amber Scam
04:31
|
|||
With three shots of Tequila in a jewelry store or maybe was it four
I can’t remember anymore I don’t even know what we went in there for
A cheap date the conversion rate just don’t carry the zero
The joy amber scam when landing don’t be surprised it’s Ill-advised for them
And they’re on the lam they’re watching the docks like hawks for a new cohort that doesn’t know their plan
Was just trying to get to the OXXO but little did we know the cards were stacked the plan intact
We’re running just a little too late with that conversion rate with no translator and no calculator
Real sharks keep moving so fuck your island vibes
Cause hope’s still alive we know what you prescribed I’ve called the bank your ship it sank
Now I write the script the con is flipped the new amount we closed your whole store’s account
Now that I’m keeping my head now I’ve learned to stay calm
Reconnect to the real fate sense of kismet
Laugh about your feeble attempts
Heading back to much milder temps

Consequences of Memory
04:01
|
|||
Unread unsaid collision as the cycle continues on and on
Undone ransom fractured family phenomenon on and on
Constant weekend always plunging in the deep end
Conscious break in waking up only to make amends
Flatline trajectory time to abandon every ship
These consequences of memory remind us of every bad/head trip
Lucid muted chasing all erasing all your troubled ways on your recovery days
Remissive divisive related all debated all punched above your weight as we parted ways
Disorder of operations diluting decimating nervous systems
Drained by your divides by delusions by false divine intervention stepping in

Wading through the stagnant water walking through that tripwire
All we can do is phone it in and douse ourselves in melatonin
Glassed by the Gilded Age predatory lending phase
Failed by the promised land laid to rest best laid plans
Finally able to analyze finally starting to realize
Moved on from the denial stage glassed by the Gilded Age
Double down preserve the imperial while drowning in the packing material
A product of the lesser gods while maxing out your credit cards
Flying with faith and no visibility tracking your future in a shipping facility
What does that opportunity really cost
Realizing the paradise they promised is really a fraud

Crime and Soda
04:07
|
|||
Recognized randomly on the street
Paralyzed by everyone you ever meet
Not socialized enough to ever weigh the cost
Dehumanized until it becomes a total loss
Just order another crime and soda
Out on the range it always lasts
Sorry now I have to quote ya
Investigate another past
Weaponized until we dry up the well
Digitized until we think in parallels
Dehumanized pushing us to the brink
Euthanized so we have a lot of time to think
Just order another crime and soda
Knowing some things had to change
Sorry now I have to quote ya
Drained devotion with a cane
Some day you’ll learn to walk alone
Some day you’ll learn to change your tone
Until then you’re on your own
Until then your cover’s blown
Some day you’ll learn to walk away
Some day you’ll learn to change your ways
Until then you’re on your own
Until then your cover’s blown

All These Kids
04:33
|

All these kids are so sensitive
Washed out by tech that can wreck the very fabric of how they live
Why these kids are so sensitive
Washed in the drama while they wade through their trauma like a sieve
We can’t unglue we can’t undo
Getting ticks getting sick
Dig a ditch for a stitch
Streaming tricks for some kicks
All these kids are so sensitive
Drenched by prescriptions while they wade through descriptions so what gives
Why these kids are so sensitive
Blocked from their channel that is more than a handle it’s how they live come on come on
With no peace we can’t release
Come unglued stapled to
Constant threats stay upset
Crypto bets can’t connect
All these kids are so sensitive
Forced underwater while they’re led to a slaughter they outlive
Why these kids are so sensitive
Caught in the middle of a ruse of a riddle they forgive come on come on come on

Accompanied by dragonflies imminently guided by your secret visions
Feeling faint all the time from telepathy visitations from the other side
Protecting from all the illusions and deceits all the vampires and creeps all the shadows that they’ve prescribed
Recurring dreams below predicted range these recurring themes of flying above your hurricanes
Accompanied by dragonflies imminently guided by the symmetry
Discovered by the agile and illuminated like the secret of your crooked smile
Emblematic of starting the ascent because nothing ever ends and everything is provided
Partaking energies practice breaking free the fascinating realm of what is slowly taking me
Accompanied by dragonflies imminently guided by your secret visions
Accompanied by dragonflies imminently guided by the symmetry

Precipitated pressure measured on the take
Documenting temperatures we can accommodate
Holocene-related model thermal gradients
Demonstrated deficiencies with variations degraded
Walk a high wire
Above the empire
Engulfed in flames
Flooded plains
Asynchronously
Respectively
Quite comparably
Our newfound prophecy
Intensity significant as a contrast in time
Complex relationships on that future wine
It’s a long-term trend that will never never end
We can drown ourselves in data but can never pretend
New alpine lake
Our last mistake
Territorial lane
Terrestrial chain
Faithfully recorded
Constantly purported
Existence reassured
Then force majeured

Sharp Young Teeth
03:47
|
|||
Waiting out blind devotion restless doubt set in motion
Whatever you bought her it’s taking on water
Dodged cleverly with all your bad energy
Now those sharp young teeth have dulled
Now we draw more blanks than answers
Now those creditors have called
Now we’ve cashed in second chances
Seize the right to reminisce
Catching up with those we miss
Someday you may ignore it all
And lose your final curtain call
Sheer conjecture moves the needle
Flawed architecture feeling feeble
Even more confused about our relationship
As the days ensued we abandoned ship
Secret breath shards of glass
Cause of death called the past
Check your heart rate before you spend
One more moment making amends
