Is this all that there is?
Come see me and my best friend!
It's Caesar and me
He said we were a team
Breaking and entering
To secure the American dream
I won't abandon you
You're all that I have
Is this what we've become?
Petty thieves, lower than scum
This is not who I should become
It's Caesar and me
He said we were a team
Breaking and entering
To secure the American dream
Why would you leave?
I'm all you have
Why won't you tell them?
Tell them, Caesar
Why won't you tell them?!
Hey kid, get over here
I'm ready to ruin your life

A funny thing happened to me on my way over to the club the other night
He's alive! I'm telling you, he's alive!
He's alive! I'm telling you, he's alive!
Why won't you listen to me? He's alive!
He talks when I don't talk
These jokes I've never heard before
Why does everyone think I'm crazy?
You put words in my mouth
You stuck out my tongue you fuck, you stuck out my tongue
Why don't you get it?
You made me who I am
And I'm in your blood, I am in your blood
Why don't you get it?
I hope your satisfied
Like the song, like the song of the same name
What do you say?
What do you say we get down, yeah we get down to this business now
How can you be real when you're made of wood?
How can you be real?!
Keep talking, I'll find you
Keep talking, I'll find you

Painting the red carpet black
Turning your fashion show into a funeral
You demolished the trust with a stab in the back
Your sense of self is inflated and swollen
That same crooked smile plastered under your eyes
Taking me back to our days in the school yard
I should have suspected this horrendous surprise
A betrayal rivaled only by the stars abandoning the sky
I don't even want to hear it
You always sound sexier with your mouth shut anyway
Save your sorry, no forgiveness
You are one long paper cut on the wrist of the earth
Painting your black casket red
Making a joke of the things that you hold close
Haha it's funny your parents are dead
Payback's a bitch you stupid motherfucker
I have no respect for people like you
Turning your back when you're needed the most
After all that you put me through
I would never stoop so fucking low as to hurt you back
You've done me in, you've done me wrong
I won't be keeping my mouth shut for long
You've done me in, you've done me wrong
Your pathetic apology won't change my hate song
I don't even want to hear it
You always sound sexier with your mouth shut anyway
Save your sorry, no forgiveness
We are one long splinter in the retina of god
Shut your fucking mouth
Deadbeat pig fucker
Headache queen bitch
Fuck you and your happiness
You took it all from me
I'm taking it back

We’re all born with high hopes
But somewhere along the way
We lose that sense of light
Exchanged for a prayer of mediocrity
Please don’t let the bad things happen
Please just let me, get through the day
Day after day
Week after week
If I just get through this
I can sleep and eat
What a worthless excuse for existence
Sleeping your days away
In a conscious haze
Dreamers of the world unite
We have naught to lose but our chains
We will fix this place
Rise up towards the unknown
With an explorer’s mind
Leave your doubts behind
Take the fight to them
Inspire others
We shall have ourselves a revolution
Why hope for better things
When the world seems hellbent
On burning itself to the ground?
How can we even go on?
Pretending we’re not on the brink of total destruction
Things may seem bleak for the moment
Allow yourself to see the bigger picture
So many of us care
So many of us are fighting for this
Giving up won’t achieve a thing
Wouldn’t you rather stand for something
Than die thinking “oh what if?”
No hope!
No flicker of light
No ember or spark of humanity
Just the guilt
Collective guilt and grief
Yet we still have so much more to lose
Patronise someone else
We’re powerless against the powers that be
There’s no way to go but down
Bound by the deconstruction of self
Where does a collective even play a part
In an egocentric economy
Reliant on self destruction?
Why hope for better things
When we can demand them
Fight for them
Claim the world as our own
Why hope for better things
When we can take back what's ours
Money and power
Illusions the bureaucrats
claimed as their own
Why hope for better things
When we can hit them where it hurts
Hit them where it counts
Why hope for better things
When we can demand them

Quantum mechanic manipulation
Remains out of reach
Research papers spread across the table
The solution is out of reach
Stretching, bending and breaking
to achieve my goal
Folding, punching through the layers
A fabricated black hole
Awake yet barely aware
Obsessively replaying
Every moment
Every crooked chance
I didn't take
Holding out for perfection!
If energy is never truly destroyed
Is your essence simply scattered
Have you taken a new form
And can I take it too?
Perhaps ghosts simply
Vibrate in a different dimension
A different frequency
Waiting to welcome me
Ready to be seen
A lifetime is not enough
We needed more
We would've made the most of it
A feeling of incomplete
Existence
There can be beauty without
The contrast
There can be love without loss
Given my desire to
Figure out the tools
Required for this big transition
Nothing can ever replace you
And no one ever will
forever I'll l miss you
At least until we’re reunited
Wherever you are
Is where I’ll soon be
All I need is the big transition
Nothing can ever replace you
And no one ever will
forever I'll l miss you
At least until we’re reunited
If there's somewhere in this world
where I belong
It's wherever you are
Right by your side

Drop your dead head
And wave goodbye
Silent words speak loudy
When you’re not alive
Drop your dead head
And wave goodbye
Silent words speak loudy
When you’re not alive
Ghostly figures
Laugh at your cries
To execute the undead
That never dies
Spirals in the air through the corridor
Cries pursue, flooding through the ceiling floor
You are not welcome
Rest now in your partial grave
Far down
You’ll never haunt me
Your skulls last fracture
Go (Oh god won’t save me)
Now (dear god please save me
Go (forget this meaning)
Go (undo this being)
Go (god)
Go (god save me please
Go (Far away god)
Go (Oh Save me)
Go Now
Go now
Go now
Go now
A life in isolation
Makes life more bearable
When you only feel comfortable
With yourself
In chains

Foam rubber
Found your mangled pieces in the street
I’ll show you that I don’t lack empathy in time
Foam rubber
Amputee slaughtered
Remain unfound
Foam rubber
Erase you with a sharp pin
No cells reside
Your love Deprived
No cells reside
Your arm isn’t much now
You’ll fall asleep tonight
Foam rubber
Amputee slaughtered in the street
Foam rubber
Amputee slaughtered in the street
Foam rubber
Amputee slaughtered
I swear to god I don’t lack empathy
It’s never done
You’ll still
Be
Stuck
Your limbs greet me
Untorn
The kill means red
Corpse
Fade to darkness
Don’t try
Can’t make it out the door, when you die inside
