Jesus Christ Body Slam 02:22
lyrics
buy track
VERSE 1 I’m open, our backs move head to head and body to line I severed my tongue, I bit my teeth right through it And bludgeoned my face with the mic And it’s the silence inside us, the silence divides us The hands still hold the shake Poison the youth with the words I’m speaking What a horrible mistake, and so it goes VERSE 2 So we purge our bodies on rocks and stones Head for the hills, curse their homes All my life I wanted something to say Oh, well the fire is taking the stage God bless the ones who were just like us, forgot to think PRE-CHORUS And this gas will cleanse your hands Burn the palms and smoke the lung It’s hopeless, they’re rolling in the flames CHORUS Stop this from sinking We’re left, we’re the white noise, listen Open arms Open hearts Open lungs tonight REPEAT CHORUS REPEAT CHORUS Stop this from sinking

With Notes Like These We Can Kill Anything 02:13
lyrics

VERSE 1 It’s hard to maintain silence while the walls are burning I’ve been drinking to keep down the heaves We’re the liars, the fakes and the thieves So we dance by flailing our arms to the rhythm Of who ever’s pouring the drinks Arms bend, break back and the veins are starting to leak VERSE 2 Yeah we smash our heals and we rid our soles As the hands are clearing the air And the records are skipping, the lines are repeating, you can feel them starting to tear Arms bend, Arms bend Arms bend back now And these feet are letting us down CHORUS So I said, “Roll back the sleeves” “Be a fake, be a cynic and just believe” Our engine’s in the Delaware Rivers drift here slowly to sea Noise is noise until someone believes BRIDGE Our engine, our engine, our engine’s floating out to sea Our engine, our engine, our engine’s floating out to sea REPEAT CHORUS Arms bend back, arms bend back And I should leave Arms bend back, arms bend back And I should leave

Barrabas Or Bobby Brown 02:19
lyrics

VERSE 1 Arms, legs, check liars and the panicked With a cut to bone we left this home depleted and sick We’re the death we admit it Check the closet, check the mattress Give us Barrabas or we’re coming in PRE-CHORUS All systems starting to slow Get dressed, get ready to go CHORUS We’ll bury, bury fifteen bodies today In the back seat of a car and watch them drive it away We’ll bury, bury fifteen bodies today In the back seat of a car and watch them drive it away VERSE 2 Turn the radio on, keep the kids safe at home Turn the radio on Let’s dance, they’re drowning like stones Turn the radio on, keep the kids safe at home Turn the radio on Let’s dance REPEAT PRE-CHORUS REPEAT CHORUS

The Frequency Of A Heartbeat 03:47
lyrics
buy track
VERSE 1 Well I tried a thousand times to forget your eyes tonight But the seconds only whisper in my ears these days Only thing that forces me to Move on and on and on and on and on Is remembering to forget everything VERSE 2 Go to talk but all I see is your lips moving up and down And making patterns that every other night I’d actually be able to stand Only thing that forces me to Move on and on and on and on and on Is remembering to forget everything CHORUS It’s so wrong and I know for the first time in my life We’ll bleed together It’s so wrong and I know for the first time in my life We’ll bleed together BRIDGE This is: The Frequency REPEAT CHORUS

Frankie's A Cutter 03:36
lyrics
buy track
VERSE 1 If we call this resolution now We’re gonna burn our fingertips And bite our lips When what we’ve shed is what we’ve become In spite of everything the locals have Fled in disgust PRE-CHORUS Can’t get any sleep over anything While arms are raising, arms are raising CHORUS We built this house, fading out And running out and phasing out We built this house We’re phasing out Oh we built this house, fading out And running out and phasing out We built this house We’re phasing out BRIDGE Keep right on the paths we’re following Keep handles that, handles that rip Connected internally When you’re on fire there’s no room to breathe Somebody buy this girl a drink Oh Frankie do it do it When you… REPEAT PRE-CHORUS REPEAT CHORUS

Blackbelts For Everyone 03:48
lyrics
buy track
VERSE 1 Cut this electric right now Let’s stare at each other And not make a sound Cuz it’s fading while it’s falling out Trying to bind a wrist to a pin And twitch for self-destruction now VERSE 2 Built by word of mouth for miles Subjugated smiles Will keep our hopes alive And I’d die right now If I had the fucking guts but I have no fucking guts I’d die right know if I ever had the guts PRE-CHORUS There’s no difference between reservoirs and lakes When hands are tied We’ll drown, we’ll sink And the drastic always hint at just too late We’ll drown, we’ll sink CHORUS We’re suffocating, oh still singing Four men dead when six kids came to see them Walk away still, hands are bleeding Four men dead when six kids came to see them OUTRO It’s the silencing Blackbelts for everyone REPEAT PRE-CHORUS REPEAT CHORUS
