The bone heals The skin smooths But it swells And that's forever A vague word Say to you It's floating down A leaded feather Falling backwards In a void of salt Enthralled and exalted No one here to answer to Except the inside of my eyelids It's easy now It's all the same Just walk away Goodbye A dry thought Say to you And it drowned That's for the better No way Into or out Sweating spells Broken chain letter Falling backwards In a void of salt Enthralled and exalted No one here to answer to Except the inside of my eyelids It's easy now It's all the same Just walk away Goodbye

The way I vote doesn't make me a Republican Actually I'm a libertarian Hey, let's try to keep it civil It's so easy to offend you stupid liberals Let's talk about bitcoin The bootstrap prayer Let's build the condos now and worry later Let's talk about bitcoin The poor, the takers Point and Laugh at the infrastructure's failure Aside from daddy's help I am a self made man Safety nets are un-American Bro, the economics are simple If you close your eyes you can almost feel the trickle Let's talk about bitcoin About tax erasure And when our venture fails we'll blame it on the labor Let's talk about bitcoin Ayn Rand as savior And when our house burns down we'll blame it on the neighbors

Is anybody else alive? It was 27 minutes right? Nobody gets it right They say The hardest part is saying that it's over The hardest part is knowing that it's true Seems pretty plain but there's nobody saying That the hardest part was waking up to you The cheapest of the cheap wines Will be coming soon Be kind don't rewind Throw the tape out, too Number thirty last in line Saying spells in double time Choking lovesick alibi Is anybody else alive?

Your predatory bird is chugging down our batteries You promised us jobs then you burned down the factory At home and abroad we're engaged in a shadow war Crammed into camps but there's room on the killing floor Light inside is dead Vultures gonna take it Fight or flight instead Vultures gonna take it Wallow in the wreck as you sabotage and privatize The grubs of avarice are turning into butterflies Second amendment people, front line in the culture war The ones who weren't captured are the ones that you adore

Watch what you're thinking Or it gets sprayed across the wall Across the wall Think what you're dreading And it's always there on the wall On the wall There's a gas leak outside so I'll light up a cigarette But the well of souls is full The beast is getting close but he hasn't got me yet Though I'm standing still Painted by the mark of eventually Lie while you're dreaming And the ghosts are chained up on the wall On the wall Cower in the crawl And the ghouls are building up the wall Up the wall

Claws Out 00:50
Claws out Claws out Spiked sparkle gonna make you scream and shout Claws out Claws out Hard seltzer shines without a doubt I wanna drink a white claw so give to me I wanna drink white claw professionally

The List 02:32
I've been counting my cigarettes, counting my bullets counting the marks on my head I count 13 and I count 5 and I count 1 The cigarette smoke is vile against the virgin snow But not as filthy as the gun smoke In your billion dollar operation center Put me down in a database Fill my cell in a spreadsheet I'm not the only servant you've indentured But click off the safety because I'm on the list I've been counting their tire tracks, counting their footsteps Counting the dogs at the fence I lost count but I'm still alive with shaking hands The nerve is fogging up up the snowy street I'll limp along while you're nipping at my fee

Don't understand what she's saying to me Don't understand what she's sending to me Slinking downtown like a fancy witch Rigged up a bomb to a dead man's switch We walk the streets Feeling What's yours is mine until it's mine again We walk the streets Feeling The damp and dark is the life giving sin Don't comprehend what he's doing to me Don't comprehend how he did it to me Walk across town, melt and unhitch Caught on the cross with a garter stitch Don't follow through It's lost askew I felt it too We're wet now too It's not raining like it was, but it's still raining
