Paresthesia 04:58
Well you ran off to school and you thought you would change Unpack your baggage get dressed in the same But you gotta keep going or else prove yourself right ‘Cus back home is too painful out here your future's so bright. With a name like a thought that she's brushed off a long time ago And her words cant describe though she writes and she writes and she writes and she writes Why she doubts everything that she's told. Now you gotta keep going Keep on cutting your feet A precipice left to prusik How can nobody see? With a name like a thought that she's brushed off for most of her life And her words cant describe though she writes and she writes and she writes and she writes Why she wants to die every night A corpse hung on a hook, guts spilling to the floor Eyes wander down and look you right in the face It reaches once more into its insides as it pulls out everything that it can So what happens when you wake up as a rapist in a cell And what happens when you wake up and you're really just yourself And still feel like that corpse with its guts spilling out When you feel like that corpse you should just KILL YOURSELF

Protest 02:18
You're all here what more could I ask for And the suns out what more could I ask for We've all decided to come out just because our rights have been taken doesn't mean we won't shout Or cry out, cry out What once was a protest has now become a war But it’s them against us it ain't us against them and of that we're pretty sure The moon’s high what more could I ask for And you're all here what more could I ask for We're building a bonfire up to the sky They've made us cold it takes more than that to make us cry Cry out What once was a protest has now become a war But it’s them against us it ain't us against them Oh it’s them against us it ain't us against them Oh it’s them against us it ain't us against them and of that we're pretty sure

The cold winter winds are biting through my sweater Been here for a while now, shit, life could be better I think my fingers are about to fall off so What the fuck am I doing here ‘Cus you said sometime around 6:24 That was about a half hour ago Holy shit it's starting to snow And I'm alone in the cold I’m alone in the cold I'm alone in the cold I say to myself I'll wait for 5 more minutes and after that I'll go I'll probably go home and bitch at you over text about how late you were and how you DIDN'T FUCKING SHOW ‘Cus you said sometime around 6:24 That was about an hour and a half ago Holy shit it's starting to snow And I'm alone in the cold I’m alone in the cold I'm alone in the cold. It’s eight o'clock now and I'm fucking finished And as I start to leave I start to send a pretty nasty message because by now I’m as pissed as I possibly could be I whip out my phone and as I start to text I notice the message that you sent me from before ‘Cus today’s the 21st and it says let's meet 6:24 on the 22nd And I realize this whole time I've been standing with no good reason at all All alone in the cold All alone in the cold All alone in the cold
