black skies are raining on rooftops their buckets fill to the brim the pattering splitting of shingles the pressure builds up within no patch to fill up the chasms like sutures sew up the wounds no proof, just festering, languid i’ll go jerk off in my room i stand here now on the edge of it wondering when i'll finally leave shame wears a crown on its head guilt sends you down through the dirt no love just fear of damnation is that your blood on my shirt? no love just fear of damnation no prize but a pile of dirt

DISSYMMETRY 02:59
the cities piled up more like mountains of salt a little bit of rain could make the whole damn thing fall but hand in hand we all walked toward the sun pretending warmth was as good as a gun all masked up like it’s halloween again can a shadow still be construed as a man our bodies cried out in the endless expanse if we’re going to go die we might as well dance mothers, fathers daughters, sons long lost acquaintances together as one flailing, thrashing raving, mad thrust into darkness but the skin on our back they said that we could carry it all who here knows to climb a wall who here knows to climb a wall i know that we can't carry it all but we try sojourning on under the ecstasy of god who did each of us betray so we could waste another day fumbling on beneath the flag of fallen friends it’s here we lay our heads we once were born, and now we’re dead

DISSOCIATION 02:56
it's like a sight unseen like being lost at sea like missing half of the show because you’re busy trying to score some weed we need another disease i guess we get what we please we can watch on tv as the powers that be let the poor die off in HD so where’s the simple solution? rewrite a new constitution? how bout you kiss my ass and we’ll talk, pretty boy we don’t have time to wait the fuse has just been lit the back and forth is over we either do it or we call it quits somewhere just outside the lines another poor excuse for a father drives his kids in the back seat waiting to get to when they finally arrive it’s about that same time the mother climbs up on the roof of the house what a beautiful night it turned out to be she says as she lets her toes hang off the ledge right before she slips away

DISSOLUTION 03:31
i watched the world dangle by a string questioning the meaning in everything i watched the world dangle by a string i watched the news and waited for a savior but who could reward such bad behavior i watched the news and waited for a savior i watched the hearts of families break in half surely the shepard can save us with his staff i watched the hearts of families break in half what will we have left they don't have the power to kill us all break out every window and destroy the wall they don't have the power to kill us all sing hallelu the roots are rotten the tree is bare the branches broken beyond repair what doesn't serve us or keep us safe must be destroyed must be replaced
