Lung- The City is Lying

It’s not fair nobody nobody knows you’re there
Nobody nobody sees you’re the good one
Nobody nobody sees you’re the best one
Oh is it true oh is it true
All of this hell you put you through
You’re wasted
Stumbling alone on the cold hard pavement
Nobody home but you’re on her track
Nobody home and she won’t call back
Oh is it true oh is it true
All of this hell you put you through
Oh is it true oh is it true
Cause all this shit comes back to you.
Oh is it true that this whole city’s lying?
Oh is it true that Cincinnati’s lying?
Oh is it true cause all this shit comes back to you.

Lung- Stalemate
01:35

Mouth closed can’t say no
Baby you broke all of the things you own
Lips pressed can’t say yes
You’re a success
I do not think that this is the end of the world
But I do not think that you can say anything
Say something anything
Stale meat
Garbage heat
All of your mess
Just rinses and repeats
Sick scene beauty queen
Say what you mean
Mouth closed can’t say no
Mouth closed
Baby go home.

Lung- Wall

But I don’t wanna talk about it
They built the Berlin Wall
Don’t wanna talk about it
They built the Berlin Wall
Don’t wanna know about it
Turn off your radio
Turn off the television
Don’t make me angry
Don’t make me.
Cause I don’t wanna talk about it.

What are you asking for in turn
What are you asking for in return
Is it possible to give one for the other?
They promised a different life
They promised a different story
They promised a different mind
They promised a different story.

Lung- Stranger Now
04:53
|

And I wake to find the sky
Stretching so familiar
Beautiful and lost to you and I
And I wake to find the sun
It is bright and blinding
Freeing me from all I’m running from
And when the empty day is done
And when the day is done
I am burning just to find another mind
To find a different kind of mind
Same somehow different
To forgive all of the things I’ve left behind.
I can’t own all this world of gold
It’s a dream that I lost when I remembered
And in starlight I can see
Life is so peculiar spinning webs
From where we used to be.
And I open up my eyes
To your face so lovely
Knowing that someday the world will die
Someday this lovely world will die
Someday this world will
And we lived in just the glimmer in an eye
So sweetly shimmering in light
So sweetly shimmer
To be here is so much stranger now.
I can’t own all this world of gold
It’s a dream that I lost when I remembered
I can’t give all you’re asking for
It’s a dream that I lost when I remember
Someday this lovely world will die
Someday this lovely world will die.

Standing in my snowmobile suit
Heads up penny 1982
With nothing to lose
Except for maybe my big toes
And just like them, I can't feel you anymore.
Wake up, cause I'm outside.
Outside
All the kids on the corner, they'll never understand
That the world is gonna end before their children's childrens dead
Dead
Dead and their likeness, dead.
Its a fine, fine day.
Tell me I don't feel
That it's not for real
Blow it all away
Can't promise I'll stay.

SKRT- Trailer Trapeze
01:38
|

Better get grown
No credit, overthrown
Mis-a-reckonin these, Miss-a-reckoning me
Aye, can't fall asleep at night
Seeing shapes in the dark, and I cannot close my eyes
Just wanna be left alone
Know that I've changed
I know that you know, but you don't say anything
Too late, it is too late
I can't eat and I can't sleep, I just keep wondering
If I will ever find all the goodness in this life
But I tell ya right now, gonna die real soon
and there is nothing that you can buy
With all those tears you cry
So you try that scratch-off ticket
Just to get out of this glare.
Of this Trailer Trapeze inheir
Know that I want to keep digging but I've dug for so long
Too long, too late, is it too late

Summer dress
Less than six
Take my hand
I'll show you this
Innocence doesn't last
In Heritage
There's no order in the Court
What they do when they're bored
Poke at me with sticks, 'cause I can't feel it
And telescope my parts, 'cause I'm baby Venus
Medusa Do Somethin'
T-shirt/jeans, thirteen
beg and beg
"C'mon get on your knees"
Just wanna leave, can't leave
Bite down
Until you feel teeth
Into this world we are born
Poke at me with sticks, 'cause I can't feel it
And telescope my parts, 'cause I'm baby Venus
Medusa Do Somethin'
Medusa Do Somethin'

SKRT-Black Adderall

Little Rascal, watch 'em go.
Off the walls, off the meds, don't need the shit.
You're not an experiment.
Bring the kit, test the kid.
Over and over, and over again.
Give them something.
Black Adderall
Black coffee
All I need
Ten years without those beads
I prefer the beans
Puberty
Stunt your growth
Make the unprescribed want more and more
Ask them, what are they doing it for?
Black Adderall

Perhaps it'll all come down sooner than we thought
I want to know who set fire to the Amazon
Where do the wildlife go?
They don't; they're gone
The air is thinning, and part of the Earth is burning
And they can see it from space
They're not talking about it, not stated a thing
We'll be left in the dark until it all is just as dark
Part of the Earth is burning, and you can see it from space
The air is thinning
The air is thinning
The air
The air is
The air is...
Gone.
