Mercy 04:44
You hate light, I can tell— not one star will talk to you. Cook me slow, smell my smell Flick the cask and come to me Are we good, are we gold? Are we bound for the tail of the dragon? Bat your eyes if you can, once for Stay, twice for Go Pay no mind to Mr. Hyde Count to ten, enjoy the ride Are we good, are we gold? Are we off for the tail of the dragon? Are we good, are we gold? Better me than the devil you don’t know.

Jaywalker 03:12
Saw your tag today on a five car train— a rocket sled to the chest Heard the snake like sound of the hit downtown the night you met the dead Never found the crew that crossed out you in icebox blue never saw the knife never thought your life would end that night Can’t believe the J is still a blaze of wicked chrome and red May your name remain and the art you made forever in my head

Semicola 02:36
Tricked every tripwire picked every lock opened your black heart like it or not Ever gone, ever Mars-bound grab my hopes on your way back down Lit like a gas fire night after night wanna believe you lie after lie Ever cold, ever snowbound cookin rocks not to feel Miss your teeth, miss that hot sound when you’re go’in down on— Miss you so like you don’t know want you back but I don’t know Ever high, every sky bound wake me up when you come back down

Anodyne 03:59
Fading, it feels like you’re fading, turning from this mess into mist Nothing, not even the deeps of sleeping Cures me, like a hit of blade to wrist Opened—is that how they found you? Unbound, free as the air all around you Tell me, what gives with the caring? Show me, as if you could, what I missed? Nothing, not even the love you show me heals me, like the kiss of blade to wrist Opened—is that how they found you? Unbound, free as the clouds above us Woken—no other word describes you Chosen, to sever the dark that chased you
5.
Pipedown 03:30
Blues & blacks pinks & reds I’ve done’m all to fix my head to stop your voice from haunting me cuz it won’t quit cuz it won’t pipedown way down to two down, straight down to you don’t mind much the whispering the loaded sighs the muttering but come the night and all it brings it rises to a silent scream—pipedown right down, to two down, straight down to you Gave you all that I could give I saved the house I saved the kid but when it came to saving you the dope won out the voices too—pipe down right down, to two down, straight down to you
6.
Carousel 03:43
You look so sad stricken down to the darkest gray— hell ain’t half bad, I swear First she purrs then she raves round and round every single day Wants a ring, wants to fight, right now Says you suck, says you win, calls you satan Says you light up her life, but not which one You look burned out charred on down to the lowest grade— bad love fallout, I swear First he lies then he prays up and down every single day wants a maid not a wife, and how Calls you queen, rubs your feet, says you’re broken Says you’re the light of his life, yeah right Best get off, best high tail hit the road cuz the system’s failed or bear down, and shut your mouth, and tell her: You’re for me, I’m for you one for me, two for you Why on earth do I lie to you? Hell for me, hell for you Or walk out, and let go, pack your clothes hit the road cuz the system’s failed or bear down, lock and load, and tell him: You don’t know how much you mean to me
