1. GRIND

In the darkest hole
You'd be well advised
Not to plan my funeral before the
Body Dies

Come the morning light
It's a see-through show
What you may have heard and
What you think you know

Let the sun never blind your eyes
Let me sleep so my teeth won't grind
Hear a sound from a voice inside

Sure to play a part
So you love the game
And in truth your lies
Become one and same

I could set you free
Rather hear the sound
Of your body breaking
As I take you down

Let the sun never blind your eyes
Let me sleep so my teeth won't grind
Hear a sound from a voice inside

In the darkest hole
You'd be well advised
Not to plan my funeral before the
Body dies

Let the sun never blind your eyes
Let me sleep so my teeth won't grind
Hear a sound from a voice inside


2. BRUSH AWAY

I could use some
Time to curl away
My aggression
Is where you stake
Your claim
Why I question
This curve on which you grade
My conception
A joke? Or latest craze?

I try to get away
And yet I stick around
So fall and crawl away
And brush away loose ground

My intention
Can I arrive at eight
Lie and dream some
Surprise you guys I'm late
All right, correction, forgetting something
Wait

Brush away loose ground
Brush away loose ground


3. SLUDGE FACTORY

You insult me in my home
You're forgiven this time
Things go well, your eyes dilate
You shake, and I'm high?
Look in my eyes deep and watch
The clouds change with time
20 hours won't print
My picture milk carton size
Carton size
Carton size

Call me up congratulations
Ain't the real why
There's no pressure besides brilliance
Not seen but denied
Endless corporate ignorance lets
Me control time
By the way, by the way, by the way, by the way

Once again you see an in
Discolored skin gives you away
So afraid you kindly gurgle out a date
For me

Now the body of one soul I adore
Wants to die
You have always told me you'd
Not live past 25
I say stay long enough to repay
All who caused strife

Once again you see an in
Discolored skin gives you away
So afraid you'd kindly gurgle out a date
For me


4. HEAVEN BESIDE YOU

Be what you wanna be
See what you came to see
Been what you wanna be
I don't like what I see

Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven Beside you...Hell within
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you...Hell within
Like the coldest winter chill
Put Heaven beside you
Hell within
And you think you have it still, Heaven inside you

So there's problems in your life
That's fucked up
And I'm not blind
I'm just see-through
Faded
Super jaded
And out of my mind

Do what you wanna do
Go out and seek your truth
When I'm down and blue
Rather be me than you

Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven Beside you...Hell within
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven Beside you...Hell within
Like the coldest winter wind
Heaven Beside you...Hell within
And you wish you had it still, Heaven inside you

So there's problems in your life
That's fucked up
But you're not blind
You're just see-through
Faded
Overrated
And out of your mind

Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven Beside you...Hell within
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven Beside you...Hell within
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven Beside you...Hell within
And you know you have it still, Heaven inside you


5. HEAD CREEPS

No more time
Just one more time

So crazy, beat the strain
Too lazy, shake the gray
So, and she willed the rain
So let me be defamed
Your redundancy stains
Tired of infantile claims
Like puppets on their strings
Untangle you from me

Time to call the doggies off
Tired of the shadowin'
Slide me too the side again
Slapped in the face again

No more time
Just one more time

Your redundancy stains
Tired of infantile claims
Live puppets on a string
Untangle you from me

[Chorus:]
One day my plane leaves
Some way my head creeps
Some day my head leads
Some way my head creeps

Empty room sets the scene
Pick at me slow, pain fiend
Suck me through barbed screen
Anger becomes our queen

Tongue whipping forked black
How long until you crack
Surprised and set back
Lackeys' loose talk for fact

[Chorus]

So crazy feel the hate
Yeah, I've got years to wait
I know it's not too late
Leanding clean hands to fate
Rise from the dirt I'm in
Hide in another's skin
Stick black dress doll with pin
Your mouth takes on my grin


6. AGAIN

Hey
Let them do it again
Yeah
Hey
You said you were my friend

Hey
Turn me upside down
Hey
Feelin' so down
Hey
Hey

Hey
I know I made the same mistakes
I
I won't do it again, no
Why
Why you slap me in the face, ow
I
I didn't say it was okay, no
No
No

Hey
You had time to think it out, yeah
Hey
Your weak will won't help her heal
Her heart, no

Hey
I'll bet it really eats you up


7. SHAME IN YOU

When I waken
And I'm achin
'Time for sleepin', yeah

When I'm sayin'
Time to go and
I've been hurtin', yeah

When I'm layin'
I'm still trying
Concentrating on dyin', yeah

You're right as rain
But you're wrong to blame
Agreed my crime's the same
My sins I'll claim
Give you back shed pain
Go find a place for own shame,
Yeah
So you can deal
With this thing unreal
No one made you feel any hurt,
Yeah

Body's movin'
Only provin'
No one heeds to move

Still believin'
Yet mistaken
All god's children, yeah

And I must say
I was stupid
Selfishly she consumed, yeah

And you must changed
Patterns all we trained
Or n'er regain peace you seek
Now you hear me
For the things I see
Yeah, I believe in inner peace, yeah

Throw out
Blow up
Hold in

Show fine
No signs
Grow blind


8. GOD AM

Dear god, how have you been, then?
I'm not fine, fuck pretending
All of this death you're sending
Best throw some free heart mending

Invite you in my heart, then
When done, my sinds forgiven?
This god of mine relaxes
World dies I still pay taxes

Can I be as my god am
Can you be as god am
Can I be as my god am
God of all my god am

So lord, I see you grinnin'
Must be grand always winning
How proud are you being able
To gather faith from fable

Can I be as my god am
Can you be as god am
Can I be as my god am
God of all my god am
God am
My god am
God am
God

All this respect I'm giving
Shared strength acquired by livin'
All bloomin' life youre feeding
Can't hide sick ones you're weeding

Can I be as my god am
Can you be as god am
Can I be as my god am
God of all my god am
God am
God am
God am


9. SO CLOSE

Why are we here again
It's the same ol' sit down roll around
Chewed up pen

Nothin' thrilling me too much, yeah
Nothing thrilling me

Yeah, so close now
Yeah, so close now

Man, I nearly snapped my twig
Then again I nearly snapped
A few of you

So I hear you think highly now
So I hear you think

Yeah, so close now
Yeah, so close now

Why
Why
Why


10. NOTHIN'SONG

Began this take at 7:38
Head hit the board, enough that it aches
Wonder should I be workin so late
Began this take at 7:38
Head hit the board, enough that it aches
Wonder should I be workin so late
Wonder should I be workin so late

The nothin' song sticks to your mouth
Like peanut butter on the brain
Nothin' ever stays the same
Nothin'
Yeah, nothin'
Nothin'
Nothin'

Went outside to give all a break
Wearing cowhide steak on a skate
Back inside Sam throw away your cake
Went outside to give all a break
Wearing cowhide steak on a skate
Back inside Sam throw away your cake
Back inside Sam throw away your cake

[Chorus]

Gotta finish so I can awake
Feed the cat or she spreads all the waste
Snap her neck or trade in for new make
Gotta finish so I can awake
Feed the cat or she spreads all the waste
Snap her neck or trade in for new make
Snap her neck or trade in for new make

The nothin' song sticks to your mouth
Like peanut butter on the brain
Nothin' ever stays the same
The nothin song sticks to your mouth


11. FROGS

What does friend mean to you?
A word so wrongfully abused
Are you like me, confused
All included but you
Alone...

The sounds of silence often soothe
Shapes and colors shift with mood
Pupils widen and change their hue
Rapid brown avoid clear blue

Why's it have to be this way
Be this way

Flowers watched through wide
Brown eyes
A chid sings an unclaimed tune
Innocence spins cold cocoon
Grow to see the pain too soon


12. OVER NOW

Yeah, it's over now
But I can breathe somehow
When it's all worn out
I'd rather go without

You know it's been on my mind
Could you stand right here
Look me straight in the eye and say
That it's over now

We pay our debt sometime

Well it's over now
Yet I can see somehow
When it's all gone wrong
It's hard to be so strong

We pay our debt sometime

Guess it's over now
I seem alive somehow
When it's out of sight
Just wait and do your time

You know it's been on my mind
Could I stand right here
Look myself in the eyes, and say
That it's over now

We pay our debt sometime
