Lyrics:
They draw the line,
you trace yourself
try to sleep
it feels like hell
They caught your scent
they want your head
they like to think
you are pretend.
I don't give a fuck about your imagination
there's plenty of blood in your head
every drop you spill is in consolation
you can govern yourselves in hell
The only thing that they really want
is a pantheon of American gods
The only thing that gets them off
is to goose step on that white house lawn.
I don't give a fuck about your imagination
there's plenty of blood in your head
every drop you spill is in consolation
you can govern yourselves in hell

Lyrics:
Electrified, the force of a lightning bolt
crashing into Earth
Destructive light, illuminating everything
it's all that we are worth
At the end the day we collect the ashes of all that we made
and we curse the gods as we pray for rain
we're just seeding the soil as we shuffle off this mortal coil
is this how our dreams are made?
And it won't give us pause,
what the hell could be taking so long?
We're just wasting our time turning trees into logs
and hoping a fire will magically spark
Then someone appears with the keys to your locks
like a means to an end isn't all that they want
and it means so much more when you call it love
I can't believe we made it this far....
At the end of the day
Go about your way
You're just running in circles,
you got what you want
so fuck what they say!
At the end the day we collect the ashes of all that we made
and we curse the gods as we pray for rain
we're just seeding the soil as we shuffle off this mortal coil
is this how our dreams are made!?
Sometimes I feel crushed,
Subtracting the value of all that I lost
and I lay in the dirt, staring up at the sun
cursing my eyes for each attempt to adjust
and I won't act surprised....
BUT IT MEANS SO MUCH MORE WHEN YOU CALL IT LOVE
AND I CAN'T BELIEVE WE MADE IT THIS FAR

Lyrics:
It's like a movie she said
but what she really meant
was that she'd seen it before
and life is filled with regret
Now, you could try to chase the setting sun
but it'll go to waste
Expectations like a wait list you're never on
and I'm too cool to care
It's fucking pointless I said
I never set out to feel this stupid
but now I'm hanging on my hedged bets
and all this money it feels so useless
but you could scream about a shitty day
and stream all you want, on broken screens
and just be stoned all day
compartmentalizing all the pain
like you could fit another cigarette into this ash tray.
Now, you could try to chase the setting sun
but it'll go to waste
Expectations like a wait list you're never on
and I'm too cool to care

Lyrics:
What would you say to this place on the day,
that you decide to walk away?
Would you embrace everything that they take?
What would you make of the faces,
that twist and turn
and drive you off the edge at every turn?
They look but never learned from those lies
You think they'd understand,
those directions and how to get us there...
They lived but they never learned
They're taking everything
it's none of our concern.
Why can't I breathe?
Black sky, no trees.
Why can't you see what you do?
Old gods, old dreams,
why can't we be,
free from the things that you do?

Lyrics:
I would follow you down
if you walk into the ocean with your anchor out
I don't care at all about the end or means
I just want you to be the last thing I see
'Cause I told you once I couldn't speak
but you know what I really mean
The words have all lost their meanings
If you're certain that you're moving on
keep me as a memory
don't you leave and go forgetting me
I would follow you down
if you walk into the battle and you're taken out
we can stay together for the rest of our lives
we can stay together
AT LEAST FOR TONIGHT
Maybe I'm nothing turning into something like she said
Maybe I'm full of nonsense turning into something more significant
'Cause I told you once I couldn't speak
but you know what I really mean
The words have all lost their meanings
If you're certain that you're moving on
keep me as a memory
don't you leave and go forgetting me
