Trade

where do we go from here now
and when will we know it’s time to run
do we wait for the emergency to happen
learn a trade that will make us safe
learn a trade that will stop this raid
**what should we do
i was thinking of you when you came into this world
it’s hard to believe that we’re treading downhill**
is it fair to assume you’re out on the course
making choices like pouring water
well that’s just great you’ve created another human being
it’s a change that you shouldn’t make
it’s a change that will make you shake
just get off the fucking golf course already
i’ve got this suspicion you lack intuition

Two Pieces
03:26
|
|||
|
let’s make an attempt to hold you in contempt
you said enough lies
if i was smoking them you’d get me so high
just focus with me
**i’d love to tear you into two pieces**
to get their consent
i could make some bets
just stay inside we’ll be breathing through pesticides
just focus with me
i won’t go
i’m here with my mismatched socks
around the clock hoping no one will notice

Living With Another Name
03:29
|

|
**i’ve blown up thinking about you**
light the wick i think it’s time
i get sick when i start to remind myself of you
the virus has spread so i have read enough to make a breakthrough
where did you get your brain
you must have been through some shit to radiate that much pain
we’re on the brink of sinking now
i’m so sick when i have to remind myself of you
the violence has spread as we pledge to replace your hate views
might have sold me a way
you can’t track me down living with another name
might have sold me a way
you can’t back me down living with another face

High Horse

take me back to 17
one year from being 18
i’ll be dreaming of you in my sleep
this is a nightmare
i don’t want to go to war
this is not what i am here for
don’t take my life away
i am just a child
**it’s taken a lot to keep my mouth shut
and i am fed up
get off your high horse
we will rip you down from there**
take me back to new year’s eve
you’re dressed up like it’s halloween
we missed the bus back home
i felt like a child
i don’t want to go to war
this is not what i came here for
don’t take my love away

Women
03:01
|

|
there’s nothing wrong with confidence
i wrote a song while i drift into unconsciousness
**i look to women to save the world**
you can take all you want
you’re like a tiger snake
slithering through the tall grass
you may not believe in what i say
but i’ll shout it to you anyway
can you repeat it with me
i’ll climb to top of the roof
look you dead in the eye
and watch you fall to the ground
i was informed
that the child was born
from the womb
not the situation room

Incarcerated
03:18
|
|||
|
you can’t hide forever
but you can try in the desert
but we will find you
mouth full of money suffocating
trying to breath in
you can’t buy oxygen
get down
you better beg and plea
please.
**you’re gonna be incarcerated
you’re never gonna make it alive
can we just call it off**
you thought you were clever
but you’ve shown your true colors
when you signed and refused
mouth full of twitter activated
kids can see through you
you can’t lie under oath
a spitting image of your mother
what does she think of you

No Trouble
02:53
|
|||
|
i like to gather in the streets
i don’t want no trouble
my heart stopped
somebody called for the cops
i’m here i’m minding my own my business
**you should have it all figured out**
i’ve seen them riding the side streets
looking for some trouble
your hands dropped
somebody connect the dots
i’ve feared the case will lay out to dry
i’ll break some of the pieces of the story up
but i don’t want you to think that this is okay

Not My Leader
03:28
|
|||
|
do me a favor, walk with your hands up
people are dying in the streets
you’re typing from your seats
they’re making you believe
do me a favor, try and open up
count your receipts
put them in your spreadsheets
then hide behind your fleet
**i hope you’ll figure it out
and i know you’ll end up in hell**
listen to us, you’re the police force
we’re here looking for a health source
while you play on your golf course
pretending like you earned the torch
listen to us, women are the source
and we will show no remorse
you are a weak force
that we cannot endorse
you’re not my leader

Not Alive (1985)
02:57
|
|||
|
In 1865
you were not alive
but it was cold
kind of like today
are we going to high
on the monster ride
we’ll break the mold
for years we will pay
**let’s try and talk without
making every single thing
how it used to be
we’re better than we used to be**
In 2015
we took a dive
though we were told
you can’t treat them the same
i need to cry
my brain is fried
i feel like mold
being washed away
i can’t breath
i’ve wished on all of the stars i see
i can’t wait until we discover more
i’ll make a wish on those too
i can’t even imagine what we’re going to do

Summer of '45
02:33
|
|||
|
it’s gotten humorous
there are a billion points that you have missed
just when i thought we were down on our luck
you did another thing to fuck things up
you are the president
**i’d love to believe we still have the time
to fix this before we end our lives**
you’ve gotten tumorous
a million of us chanting to resist
just when i thought we would have our heads up
you smothered them with things that you made up
you are the president
i could have spent more energy
radiating all this energy
