________________________ { I Know You Don’t Know } I want to live in this home Between what I do and don’t know Your lies are getting too old My life is getting too old Our time is just a dead soul You could have had all of it But it seems you have no interest Your bliss is just an ignorance Third eye it just stares and sits Waiting for what you don’t know I know you don’t know I don’t know who we are anymore So if I live alone, I live alone Sing songs to keep my company You’re afraid I’m dying I’m afraid I’m already dead ________________________

5 Alarm 02:01
________________________ { 5 Alarm } Lining up your sights A roll of the the dice Who will win tonight I'll be proven right A fire in your hands Forget all your plans With no time to warn This is the alarm What you want I Want it too Before I do Make your move Can you hear a thing Except your ears ring Hear you beckoning To me a scream Lift up by your hands Can you even stand With no time to warn This is the alarm Make your move Give me something to prove Five the alarm Four times to warn Three seconds to stand Two make a plan ________________________

Bleed It Out 04:44
________________________ { Bleed It Out } When you're alone all is quiet You might stop and think you're alright Then you see me And realize What you wanted you waited for What you wanted you waited for What I've wanted You on the floor We'll have you Never more, good-bye Bleed it out! Bleed it out! I'm not alone it's a riot I won't stop or remain quiet Come at me and you will find All your life is out on the floor All your life is out on the floor We won't ever sleep so you should Dig yourself in deep cause surprise Bleed it out! Bleed it out! I can't feel you What's in side of you Try and find it What you waiting, what you waiting for I will cut you Disembowel you See what you got ________________________

________________________ { On Your Knees } When you sad you You take it all in Every little pill Every little pin On your knees now Gun in hand Feel less a man What’s inside of you Are you turning blue What’s inside of you Are you outside too So blow yourself Away from here Till your insides Can appear On your knees now Gun in hand Are you a man ________________________

________________________ { Anthropomancy } You just give up Head down and sacrifice Why live at all, why live at all, why live at All around its too much Too much you've had enough Just lay back dear breathe in deeply Nothing to say, nothing to do Nothing to push the doubt hiding inside of you Don't fret at all, I bet this is all In a few years you won't miss you at all Just give up Lost myself inside Until I realized Outside the wall All this is small No worth at All around not enough Don't think we've done enough Don't give in to what comes easy I've something to say, something to do Something to prove I'm not who you thought you knew Don't fret at all, this isn't it at all Won't be long, You won't miss me at all ________________________

Helicopter 02:59
________________________ { Helicopter } What you’re feeling You don’t know An emotion Never shows Any reason Isn’t real What you want Is what you feel Where you goin You don’t know A direction Is unknown Who you are Isn’t real What you want Is what you feel Why you walk away Why you walk away Feeling any shame Reelin in your ways Why you walk away Feeling any shame Why you walk away How is this Playing out Am I left With all this doubt Only feelings But I’m strong You were always what was wrong While you’re leaving You should know I’ve already Let you go When you’re out there All alone I’ll be laughing all the while You know you can’t be right ________________________

________________________ { Everything is Nothing } They will run in circles Pay no mind to them What they say Not for me We will burn and beat them Like they did to us No we Won't go away What you say Everything is nothing Not for Me Everything is nothing Feel the pulsing ground Come to tear you down What you say We’ll blow away What we want And nothing else Is everything But you What we want And nothing else Is you ________________________

Bombs Away 03:20
________________________ { Bombs Away } Bombs away Blow up all we've built Destroy What for? We’re just memories of what We forgot What's fucked up Bombs away Away It's last call One last look around Pull it Hit the ground Let the smoke wash all over you Birthed in blood There's no other way Birthed in blood you’re not through There’s no other way ________________________

Devolution 03:42
________________________ { Devolution } Can't learn new tricks I don't care Old habits die hard I don't care Wasted time is all you are Waste my time yeah you'll go far Who are you Cut you out leave you behind You're brain dead won't even mind It's okay you'll be just fine No need to succeed you'll eat your kind In the future you won't dare Your incompetence laid bare No one wonders, no one cares Everybody everywhere has No sight No mind No life Out of my way outta my mind Deafening noise piercing your eyes Have no patience, have no time No plans just a reason why Where are you Some last words before its goodbye Drop your shit and I'll drop mine It’s okay you’ll be just fine You’re a legend in your own mind No sight No mind No life No fight No light Black eyes ________________________

about

________________________

This recording is the result of many live shows, many recorded practices, and many attempts at final masters that were thrown out for their lack of raw energy. What you hear is 4 people making a sound that they can only make together, and only at the same time. Punking ourselves all along the way.

We know the future...and you won't care.
