Boozlebum 01:26
I can barely speak, my teeth have melted away With heroin, meth, and alcohol, my dreams I'll always stay I'm not yelling at you, just the voices inside my head Twenty years out on the streets, it's amazing I'm not dead Give me some of your money, your beer and cigarettes too If you don't hand them over, I might just yell fuck you I know you have a normal life, the pigeons tell me so After I'm done with this next forty, I'll put on a shitty show The police always hassle me, but they never take me in Hand out beatings that I can't take, there's no way I can win

Limp Wristed 00:41
Holy shit, it's happened again I just woke up and can't feel my skin My wrist is limp, won't raise an inch My nerves are shot, my back is cinched I can't go to work, can't play guitar Just fuel my anger down at the bar Will this ever go away? Or are these demons here to stay? This isn't real there is no pain Is my body playing tricks with my brain Will this ever go away? Or are these demons here to stay?

Boxes 02:45
Sitting in a box Staring at a screen Connected to the world but So alone that he could scream He puts numbers into boxes Tap tap tap away Every single hour's just like Every other day But the boss's box is bigger A corporate promise land Working his short life away To get the upper hand And when he's at the top Counting gold and stocks He'll look down and realize His skyscraper's just a box Boxes built society Our standardized anxiety Boxes give us storage space For all the shit we need to waste Keep piling up the boxes To build another box Big or small they swallow us And fill our lives with loss Boxes, boxes, boxes, boxes, boxes, boxes, box Stack boxes onto boxes We forget they're bereft The emptiness consumes us Until there's nothing left Sitting on a box Working at the line Every boring task is just like Every other time She puts stuff into boxes Junk for a foreign land The writing on the package Words she does not understand She loads them on a freighter And ships them to the West Where everybody wants a gadget That is better than the rest It sails across the planet The torrent never stops And in a day it winds up At the doorstep of your box

Quicksand 02:36
Sinking deeper, unwilling to climb out Succumb to monotony, stuck in the same route Controlled by habits, brings me closer to death I've gotta break free, I'm gonna break free, It's time to catch my breath Drowning in quicksand, I'm drowning in quicksand and I need to pull myself out

Boss 02:22
I've paid my dues, I know my trade My body hurts, I'm underpaid Day by day I go to work I'm sick of making money for this fucking jerk Every single day keeps getting worse Your fucked up orders sound like a curse Every time I get a whiff of you It makes me want to fucking spew Pay me, I want whats mine Right now, it's the end of the line Shut up, I don't want to hear your shit Fuck off, I'm sick of it There's only so much a man can take until he loses it and starts to break My blood is boiling, my jaw is tight, my fuse is short, I'm about to ignite When payday comes around, you're nowhere to be found You always pay me late, but my bills never wait Make promises you can't keep, talk down to those you deem weak Then you put on a shit eating grin, and try to be my friend again Pay me, I want whats mine Right now, it's the end of the line Shut up, I don't want to hear your shit Fuck off, I'm sick of it There's only so much a man can take until he loses it and starts to break My blood is boiling, my jaw is tight, my fuse is short, I'm about to ignite I will get you in the end
