Trauma Glam 03:36
I hate myself it’s by design This leaves me empty every time I just can’t do this tonight I’ve been pretending my whole life How does this story end I’m singing words I did not write Tell me why I got on this stage Was there something I wanted to say? A portrait that I needed to paint Say it Go on Say it I know you don’t care I hate myself it’s by design This leaves me empty every time I fake myself I roll my eyes There’s nothing left but cheap disguise I hate myself Why should I lie? There’s nothing left of me to buy Tell me why I got on this stage Was there something I wanted to say? A portrait that I needed to paint Say it Go on Say it Fuck it, I don’t care I hate myself it’s by design This leaves me empty every time

Get onto my page We’re all believers In one god ego Follow me now Get up on the stage We’re all receivers Just don’t unplug or stray from the crowd Publicize my private thoughts (And lies) Advertise I’m dead inside (Aren’t you?) Sell you what I’d buy as truth You know I can’t stop…won’t stop Can I get a little less of me? Got no right to erase No one’s forgotten now We live life televised I know my rating’s down I’ve got this fear that I can’t describe Like I’ll leave my body unverified (Fi) I’m over feeling unrecognized I’m over feeling You, you know know the feeling Can I get a little less of me?
3.
It’s worth saying I saw it in your eyes Felt your fear Why couldn’t I just walk away and let you disappear? You said it felt real good That didn’t mean you would Stay with me Even though details fade I still live with you everyday I always hoped the end would be clean But I keep waking up and writing new scenes It’s about Endlessly repeating days Tell me now A better way, a better way out It’s about Needing to feel in control Talk to me Don’t talk me down, talk me down now Why don’t you? Take a pill Change your brain I’ll try to forget that shit you said again But voices linger Repeating your words “I want to love you but my heart is all blurred” It’s about Endlessly repeating days Tell me now A better way, a better way out It’s about Needing to feel in control Talk to me Don’t talk me down, talk me down now Why don’t you? Stay with me Stay with me

You know that I built all this for you You tear at, You tear it down All the warmth, all the time spent on you Leaves me cold You know I waited so long for you You wander, You waste my time You knew I’d give it all up for you It’s too much, it’s not enough Fully Automated Luxury Communism You know when you lied that I came though Picked you up, picked you apart You told me that I saved you from you I’m lost now You want a utopia? Well here it is Fully Automated Luxury Communism You want a utopia? Well here it is Let’s go So maybe I can’t survive My planet was alive And my ship is only automated (Fully) So maybe I wanna cry And watch my tears go drifting by Like diamond butterflies in the void (Empty) I’m weeping anyway So I might as well make the change To fully automated (Baby) Mama I gotta go You’re the only home I’ve known But the luxury of dreams await me (Blast off) Utopia, You told me of a place to live Utopia, You told me of what I could give Utopia, You told me all that I could buy Utopia, You told me all that I should die for

Body Horror 04:15
Let me outside I can’t feel my heartbeat Feels like a fire Has burnt me through Eyes out of focus Hands know the room Fold into myself Sleeping for days Strangers in the windows Bringing the plague Let me outside I can’t feel my heartbeat Faith stops me breathing Doubt feeds the flames Voices that whisper “The end of days” Let me outside I can’t feel my heartbeat Let me outside I can’t feel my heartbeat
6.
Should I stop watching? Tucked in bed It’s feeding my fear that I won’t be desired If flesh is god What are the odds I feel so alone Don’t you? Give it away (yeah) Give it away (don’t you) Tossed my faith out Caught some heat I didn’t wanna show you what’s inside of me But it’s true I want you Give it away (yeah) Give it away (don’t you) Should I stop crawling To the bed? I’m feeding your need to fuck as advertised If flesh is god We pay the cost To feel Special Give it away (yeah) Give it away (don’t you)
7.
Resistance 04:11
Haven’t you had enough ritual loss Pulling your blinds back ignoring the cost Gliding through bedrooms undressing the dolls You sent me love letters But locked all your doors Peel back the skin Why won’t you let me in? Haven’t we lied enough, kissing in cars I told you I’d leave this place if you made the call Asked me to cross a line I would have crossed You threw the dress to the flames Denying your part Peel back the skin Why won’t you let me in?
