Mars 03:09
Mars (3:09) (140 bpm) Plastic clocks tick, his skin itches. Haunting visions of red oceans. And I know a place where the buffalo roam and the air is so cold that it freezes their souls. But they all hold still. I waste my time until I finally get it right. Einstein’s nightmares reinvisioned. Dancing water, broken oxygen. And I know a place where the buffalo roam and the air is so cold that it freezes their souls. But they all hold still. I waste my time until I finally get it right. I waste my time until I finally get it right. Explosions of oceans and hydrogen bombs. Oxygen split with my wit and bronze. I found a way to make rain my own. I found a way to pollinate the red red red red globe.

Mona Lisa’s Mirror (2:47) (122 bpm) I wake to live and live to play I walk alone and I pray it goes away. I think about good times and how we all were made. I think about your lips and all those things you said. And you said. You ooh ooh sit and wonder. What made me your boy wonder. You ooh ooh smell like hatred. You ooh ooh my favorite lover. I’ll hold you from the things you hate. I’ll rub your back when you feel pain. I wish you dead. I wish you here. I wish you anything but there. I walk alone, I walk the block. Light up a cigarette and sit down on a rock. Maybe God is pissed that we’re all going mad. Maybe Mona Lisa’s mirror’s what made her glad. You ooh ooh sit and wonder. What made me your boy wonder. You ooh ooh smell like hatred. You ooh ooh my favorite lover. I’ll hold you from the things you hate. I’ll rub your back when you feel pain. I wish you dead. I wish you here. I wish you anything but there.

Holly Brown 03:42
Holly Brown (3:43) (150 bpm) Cliché in haste. Personal else where. End my me-time. Turpentine nightmare. Shave this ghost until it looks like you. Champaign host of a girl I knew. Androgynous face in a butterfly suit. Say waste of space for what I put you through. Addicting headlines. A virtue can hurt you. Smother your mother with a pipe and a tissue. Ooh ooh ooh ooh. Ooh ooh ooh ooh. Ooh ooh ooh ooh. She said “No. No.” Ooh ooh ooh ooh. Ooh ooh ooh ooh. Ooh ooh ooh ooh. She said “No. No.” Downtown Holly Brown, you got up and I fell down for you. Downtown Holly Brown, you got up and I fell down for you. Downtown Holly Brown, you got up and I fell down for you. Downtown Holly Brown, you got up and I fell down for you. Holly Brown is a beauty and her ass looks good in a pair of ripped jeans smoking a cigarette. Now she’s smoking a cigarette. Teenage angst. Expensive nation. Nothing burns in fornication. Spotted algae lit by wax. Let’s undress I’ll rub your back. God just spoke now listen listen. I don’t need no medicine medicine.

A Fair Warning to an Under Age Lover… (2:41) (114 bpm) They’re gonna rip your eyelids off and spit culture down your throat. Break the silence with screams. Fight and kick time until it bleeds. I guess I’m doing alright. I got a shotgun and a bottle of Rhine. Stifle your troubles and fears. You give me goose bumps when you put your fingers through your hair. I guess I’m doing alright. I got a shotgun and a bottle of Rhine. You didn’t know you had a thing called innocence. You never knew that your mind could twist like this. You didn’t know you had a thing called innocence. You never knew that you mind could twist like this. I guess I’m doing alright. I got a shotgun and a bottle of Rhine.

Pretty Pride 03:57
Pretty Pride (3:57) (85 bpm) I dropped my life. You make me want to see in the night. I dropped my life. You make me want to make things right. Let’s get closer and drink away the past. Let’s get warmer and burn away the bad. Let’s thank God we’re alive today. Tell me the words I know. I remember you as the girl who broke to soon. She looked up at the sky. She smiled and said goodbye. Let’s get closer and drink away the past. Let’s get warmer and burn away the bad. Let’s thank God we’re alive today. Tell me the words I know. Look at the world through my eyes; see for miles miles miles. At the world through my eyes; see for miles. Let’s get closer and drink away the past. Let’s get drunker and drink to what we had. Let’s thank God we’re alive today. Tell me the words I know. I remember you as the girl who broke to soon. She looked up at the sky. She smiled and said goodbye. I remember you.
6.
Houses Burning (3:37) (84 bpm) Give me a bottle of gin and tell me what a mess we’re in. That’s like pissin on my grave. I said it once I’ll say it again; a Zero don’t care for nothing. I’ll break both your goddamn legs. I believe in perfect harmonies when my baby’s in the choir. And I believe in nothing else but me when my house is on fire. Be by my side. We’ll stay warm throughout the night. Fire and flames are all the same. I’m glad I have your hand in mine.
7.
Zero Generation (3:52) (135 bpm) Oh no, they all look the same. No one really knows their names. Oh, their minds are wandering to fuck and kill is all the same. Lock and load boys. Don’t ask why. I think morality is moonshine. Make mom money. Make Dad proud. Spread God’s word around. Gun my hand, we get high watching war on Channel 5. The Zero’s don’t care. Fire fell from the sky that night and we got drunk on cheap ass beer. Oh, I think that God is mocking us wearing green in the dust. Oh, it’s kind of hot here. I’d do anything for a beer. Lock and load boys. Don’t ask why. Stand your asses in line. Make mom money. Make Dad proud. Spread God’s word around. Gun my hand, we get high watching war on Channel 5. The Zero’s don’t care. Fire fell from the sky that night and we got drunk on cheap ass beer.

Breathe 02:31
Breathe (2:31) (128 bpm) Breathe for me while I sleep. Hold me near. Feel my fear. Realize your eyes are lying. Realize your eyes are lying. Realize your eyes are lying. Realize your eyes. She. She’s running out of time. Me. I’m running out of wine. She. She’s running out of time And God just might drop her. Breathe for me while I sleep. Hold me near. Feel my fear. I smoke cigarettes and she likes it. She don’t know I think she’s crazy. I just smile and say “oh you’re lovely”. She can’t see her mind has left me. In this world we walk the roofs of hell watching clouds and wishing things were well. Pretty girl, awake from your dream state. Your ego broke, your mind’s the yoke of a crushed blue robbin’s egg. She. She’s running out of time. Me. I’m running out of wine. She. She’s running out of time And God just might drop her.

Swimming in a Sea of Alcohol (3:55) (70 bpm) She said to stop your drinking ‘cause you’re making me sick so I fell on my face and I busted my lip. Hey Mother, tell Father I cut my wrists while shaving again and I killed my best friend. It seems like all the angels are crying for me. It appears that they’re really really scared of apathy. Nothing really bothers me when I close my eyes. No no no nothing really matters at all. 34 ants on my living room floor schizophrenic, don’t panic, you’re just bored. I faked my death for the second time this week. It never works out right, I always forget something. It seems like all the angels are crying for me. It appears that they’re really really scared of apathy. Nothing really bothers me when I close my eyes. No no no nothing really matters at all. Eyes are swollen, mind is blown. Something’s bothering me. Mom is crying, God is dying, something’s bothering me. Oh no. Oh no. Momma hold my hands for the scary parts. Momma don’t get hit in the face with my broken heart. Momma hold my hands for the scary parts. Momma don’t get hit in the face with my broken heart. It seems like all the angels are crying for me. It appears that they’re scared shitless of apathy. But nothing really bothers me when I close my eyes. No no no no nothing really matters at all.

Bottles of Voodoo (5:30) (85 bpm) There’s holes in my conscious and there’s ghosts in my closet. Said I gotta go away. Go away. I broke my stars and live for hers, said they’re gonna break and fall to planet Mars. Heroes will die. My blood will dry. I hope she thinks of me sometimes in the moonlight through the abyss of time. I run away sometimes. (Don’t go away). Please believe me when I say that I’ll be fine. Heroes die. My blood will dry. Think of me sometimes through the abyss of time. I run away sometimes. Please believe me when I say that I’ll be fine. I sometimes still miss your smile purple and gray. I sit down and think a while. Oh should I stay? I wanna stay. Heroes die. My blood will dry. Think of me sometimes through the abyss of time.
