Crosswalk 04:25
No day did I see my Image of God. No one consulted me Before I was made. Before there was Light, There was Nothing, alright. Listen to my Insight Of the Seven Days. Lead me through the Crosswalk; Eyes closed, through the traffic. I’ll become a Fixture Of my, of my City: A favorite Faucet, Dripping all night long. I am a Homeless Man. Pay me. Lord, please pay Me. Purpose is a result Of Existence. One day, I was born. I felt it ever since. Lead me through the Crosswalk; Eyes closed, through the traffic. I’ll become a Fixture Of my, of my City: A favorite Faucet, Dripping all night long. I am a Homeless Man. Pay me. Lord, please pay Me.

Lation 03:05
What it is? What it isn’t? What it is? What it isn’t? Weekly Vacation in your Head Five millions Cats are laughing there Listic exercise, Davil zone Darbo is the hand of God. If you don’t you might as well find A reason not to, any reason will do Cause if you don’t somebody will Lation is a thing I believe in. Lation is a way A way for everyone Even Human beings If you know you know What it is? What it isn’t? What it is? What it isn’t?

Weird Guy 01:32
I’m just a weird guy, Cause I don’t wanna look in your eyes I dont wanna talk about the sky Not convinced I care about the life Filling up the bodies Filling up the bodies Filling up the bodies Filling up the bodies In a room so full X-ray on my skull Delighted to meet you. May I? Hey, how was your day? What do you like to eat? These scripted lines are my white lies. I’m not an actor. Unless I want to be.
4.
Neon Blood 03:04
Gonna be on to somethin’ when I wake up alive. There’s nothing concrete on my tangential high. Won’t know anything when I lay down to die. Angels watching over me, but I can’t hear them cry. Angels watching over me, but I can’t hear them cry. Fish are swimming down the stream, But I am skipping school. Everyone is cooler than me, But everybody thinks I’m cool. Life is here to entertain while I waste my time. King me on the checkerboard of that selection game. Dimming down the social light, let my animal shine. Fill my blood with neon cause I am an open sign. Fill my blood with neon cause I am an open sign. Fish are swimming down the stream, But I am skipping school. Everyone is cooler than me, But everybody thinks I’m cool.
5.
Equality 03:06
Equality Equality We are all Equal I must disagree We’re not equal. We’re not equal. Get rid of the scale, So it cannot tip. Limited visions make you take your side. The unknown is the melting pot. My home is the melting pot. Nothing’s worth fighting for. No propaganda. No Equality. What you don’t believe is what you believe. I’m speaking out against speaking out. I’m speaking out against speaking out. When you pray to God, Or Athiest, What you don’t believe is what you believe. I’m speaking out against speaking out. I’m speaking out against speaking out. Inversion, conversion, perversion, Just wring me out. Inversion, conversion, perversion, Just wring me out.
6.
Erase Myself 03:50
Never felt so belonging in this skin. People are only people, and I feel akin. For once, for now, bow like a Sunday school play. Or like a boat Instant replay football and tomorrow they’ll be fine Finally now I found myself I had to look hard Hid behind the others on the shelf I held on to my ego It was the worst trip, I have ever had to go on Scream the blues into a crowd I can’t believe I Took so long to figure it out Finally now I found myself I had to work hard Erase myself before I can be seen They’ve got community, and I’ve got mine. Be kind, be kind And meditate on that He worked too hard, just tell me the idea Save yourself 17 years, I say
7.
Applecore 04:56
-ly misunderstood, but my wiggle words are worm eaten. Would you in Eden? Even then you were naked and taken to tan your skin on the heat of the sun. Your applecore, it says to me, Go to hell, he died on the cross for. Apple of my eye, it says to me, slip away into the branches. I’m ready to eat your seeds they got Cyanide that fill me with poison, but We didn’t know how to know better than you did. You Go away, you really go away When you play the baby
8.
Who You 04:36
Who you to got lesson for me? Who you to got lesson for me? I don’t want to learn. I don’t want to learn. I’ll speak my mind if you ask me to. I’ll speak my mind if you ask me to. It might not be much, But that is enough.
9.
Oh my tiny mind, massive soul Tune to the universe, and the universe will tune to you.
10.
Drift into the limitless unknown Boomerang into my senses sewn Ask to see and soon you will be shown Wasted ember spectral feeling glow We’ll be seein’ ya now, In the future times to come I can’t wait To be your friend again We’ll be seein’ ya now, Find not a way to be But find yourself Being on the way
