Gloom & Doom 00:57

Panic 02:44
I spent entire lifetimes living in my head Biting my cuticles til all my fingers bled Now you just stare at me like I’ve got nothing wrong Watching me gasp for air as panic fills my lungs I try But there’s just no way to win My mind Just doesn’t know when to quit I find There’s only comfort in sleep I'm tired of feeling incomplete My heartbeat’s always driving faster than my thoughts My hope’s on cruise control - let’s see where it ends up I don’t know what I’ll do with all these episodes accruing I’m just too terrified of what I’m capable of doing Why don’t you understand The panic’s setting in Sunrise to sunset Then it begins again A feeling in my bones Feel it under my skin That little feeling is when i start to...

The moon is a lover that’s persistent I just have a problem with commitment I swear I can smell you in the distance You’ll be mine in an instant Seething yearning feeding Why are you trying to run?! Bleeding burning creeping It’s all in good fun No time since the fever’s been consistent Your day’s on this planet - non existent I swear I can hear you in the distance You’ll be mine in an instant My, my, my What big teeth you have Dig my claws in deeper I’d like to rip your throat out Hang you upside down and drink your Blood Blood Blood I never liked being a man I'm just more of a wolf
4.
There is a sickness that’s spreading through me [Shoving nails inside my eyes has turned into the favorite part of my routine] My joints are malignant-glass chewed by my teeth I just want To tear my veins out of existence Welcome to the Suffering Society Where existential pain is handed out for free And memberships are sold at 2 for 1 So you can show a friend how you have fun I just want To tear myself out of existence
5.
Clock in with a deep exhale Only matter of time till I’m out this hell Body’s trapped but my mind wanders Starting to doubt if I’ll make it much longer Where there’s fire Where there’s fire Comes smoke of anguish Sixty hours Sixty hours Of workforce language It devours It devours My will to be alive My desire My Desire To not exchange my labor to survive “Come on darling take my hand Nothing here is worth it’s sound Run away to darker lands Deep into the underground” Clock out with a sigh of relief Another miserable day gone down this week Holding on by the skin of my teeth A pair of days so my life won’t seem too bleak Tear my soul out Use it as a canvas Paint me up a brighter scene To fill this frame of blackness Tear my soul out Use it as a canvas Sell it to the highest bid I don’t think I can stand this
6.
Apocalyptic splendor Infects society How does one man will power to bring worlds to their knees? Stuck in your rhythm Stuck in your rhythm Stuck in your rhythm Blinded by devotion Stuck in your rhythm Stuck in your rhythm Stuck in your rhythm Of self destruction You act like your some kind of saint You act so self entitled No sense of morals or a brain Worshipping your false idols Deliver us from evil Cause evil’s what we are According to your standards We wouldn’t make it far I just can’t believe you’d stoop so low How can you tell me you believe in ghosts
7.
Oh 01:56
Seed of destruction Your fingers lose function Raised into corruption No you don’t know me Panic on the streets in my head I’m not sure if you can hear it Panic on the streets in my head I hope it gets you in the spirit Oh Seed of destruction Your fingers lose function Raised into corruption No you don’t know me Panic on the streets in my head To try to see a little clearer Panic on the streets of my head Take a good look in the mirror Oh
8.
Glitter Boys 00:52
You told me I looked pretty in that shade of black called me a glitter boy to see how I’d react I’ve never felt comfortable in my own skin But I think it’s time that I try to exist Never enough of a man Or nearly close to a girl Just let me live in-between of my own lonely world
9.
You were just a monster inside a human shell Molded by hate caring for no one but yourself Bleached blonde with plastic in your blood Always running to escape your touch To you it’s “young honest mistakes” But it’s reality to me I’m begging mother dearest Souls shouldn't feel like this You ruled me with your death threats And with your iron fist You set a low standard I didn’t know existed All this trauma seems too uncomfortably persistent Told me that I can’t be myself Only seeking statuses and wealth It’s been a love that’s so distinct You lack a motherly instinct I’m trying. I’m trying. I’m trying. I’m black and blue Solely for what you’ve done Just give me a reason to miss you when you’re gone
10.
If rumors are to be believed in I can’t wait to hear how fast you fell I’ll show you off to all my dear friends Like it’s a day of show and tell I’ve spent so many years trapped A corpse of my former self Your bitter demons know me Better than I’ve ever known myself Deceit is all you’ve been conceived in Born in the very depths of hell You hang us from hooks on a ceiling Another monster in a shell What’s going on with me? Why do you wanna know? Did you run out of souls? For all your funerals I had my sights on you and one foot in the grave You were the one and done now you’re just my mistake
