I'm Not Going Under

I’m like Americas disengaged youth, im a
Freak fighter, green lighter
Im such a brilliant shade of blue im the
First floor of the dream tours
Im like a zombified voice in a booth im a
Reef lighter, fire fighter
I can be paranoid or on the move, im in
Deep water, deep water
Push me, pull that, im not going under
The truth is hard to come by
Im like americas disengaged youth im a
Deep cover up scandal truth teller
You can detract from it, you could save lives, im a
Trip wire, tripped up and tracked down
You could be favorable, you could be at risk for a
Heart of purple im down to die for
You could say im not much to cry for, you
Push me, pull that, im not going under
The truth is hard to come by
You could shit right on my floor
You could sell me straight from door to door
Push me, pull that, I’m not going under

How many times have i told you to remember
Lost in the sauce and the sauce is lost forever
Give it some time to rewind in your mind
if it doesn't come to you
I took too much and now i cant remember
Where were you on the 7th of december
I can tell its gone and it feels so wrong
That i cant remember you
Jogging your mind
Falling behind
Give it some time to rewind in your mind if it
Doesnt come to you
You know that place id take you to
Youre still the same but i cant place you
How many times have i told you to remember
Lost in the sauce and the sauce is lost forever
Jogging your mind and i fall behind
Give it some time to rewind
You know that place id take out on you
Give it some space i make out with you
Theres no easy way you cant see this through
youre gorgeous babe, i made up with you

My Virtual Life

My virtual life, pleasure and pain
My virtual life, feels the same as my
Personal life, super fake
My personal life, down the drain
My digital life, doing my thing
Feeling ashamed and wasting away
In a similar light I’m a simian ape
Piddling life in the digital age
Woo oo oo oo
Woo oo woo oo
My virtual life, pleasure and pain
My virtual life, feels the same as my
Personal life, super fake
My personal life, down the drain
In life, theres love
Online, theres none
Turn your iPhone on today
Screentime up until the grave
Woo oo oo oo
Woo oo woo oo

Watching in your eyes
In your eyes for a sign of life
You turned it all off didnt you
Didnt you
Vhs rewinds
Realigns in time
Reset pause play loop de loo
Loop de loo
Falling on the times
On the hard hard times
Falling on the times watching through a
Foggy mirrored washroom
You turned it all off didnt you
Didnt you
Vhs rewinds
Rewinds in time
Reset pause play
Loop de loo, loop de loo, loop de loo

Too Bad Day
02:14
|

Todays a too bad day so i'm going away
I've got no one to blame my mind is a blank
So I just stay away
It seems like i'm upset now but I don't know how
I can't live it down so I just act proud
But you keep me around
So i plant a little victory flag on the ones i've parted with
But I've still gotta move
I get out of my groove
No todays the too bad day and we're all gonna lose
Today is not the day that i'm making a change
Cuz i'm stuck in my ways and i'm nervous and strange
So i leave it to fate
No today is way too late and i made the mistake
And I'm sorry to say that I've nothing to thank that i
Made it this way
While wearing quiet solitudes on the worst part of my face
Your judgements had an entrypoint to the wrinkles of my brain
You'd just cut me loose if I stray too far from you
Todays the too bad day and we're all gonna lose

Cutthroat

Cutthroat we just leave each other
Nobody cares about a body on the ground
I can't be sentimental i gotta question all the voices flyin through my head
Cutthroat we just leave each other
Nobody cares another body on the ground
I cant keep confidential all the potential shit you implicate me in
Fucked up just to think about it
Drop dead and you leave your body lying on the ground
I filmed a documentary special on the houses im still living in
Fucked up just to think about it
Fucked up just to leave each other lying on the ground
I can't think gently on this heat wave debt race i've gotta place in
Cutthroat we just leave each other
Nobody cares another body on the ground
I cant keep confidential all of the potential shit you implicate me in
Fucked up just to think about it
Drop dead and you leave your body lying on the ground
Hot boy gets sentimental watching every tv special
Cutthroat we just leave each other leave each other
Nobody cares about another body bleeding on the ground
I cant keep confidential all the things you key me in on

Child of the Mud
02:20
|

|
Watch the paint peel off the walls inside my head
Sap the life between the sheets onto my bed
Crawl under the stars onto the grass instead
What would dad have said?
Everybody goes to the cheap, cheap grocery store
And they don't come back for more back for more
As the child of the mud
I see myself shoveling blood
I know I said to you I know what you're going through
But nothing else could be less true
I see myself as a child in the mud
Wash my hands in vinegar and turpentine
Feel the mud caked on my back and through my spine
Disregard the notes i left inside the house
Everybody goes to the cheap, cheap grocery store
And they don't come back for more, back for more
For the child in the mud
And i see myself as a child in the mud
And i know i said to you i see what you're going through
But nothing else could be less true

Cause’ everythings stagnant
It dont go forward
The presidents standing next to me
And i don't feel stupid
I feel like i could do it
I don’t want to be friends with you
I don’t want to get to know you better
Black pot, meet kettle
I don't feel stupid or useless or restless or crazy
Im walking through flowers im stomping on daisies
I feel like an otter im wading through water
A horse to the slaughter, untethered, unbothered
Im waiting…
The President’s standing next to me!
It's just like we're a family
I've gotta think of what to say
The President’s standing next to me!
Cause everythings stupid
It goes in cycles
Archangel Michael says to me
The lord rebuke you, I feel like i might puke here
I dont want to get closer to truth,
I just wanna get to know you better
Death to the shepherd

Waste Away
02:58
|
|||
|
As I’m waiting
And our souls that were touching are fading
away, i do not know
So far from the ceiling, floats so far away to detach itself from you
How come everyday weeks in a row
Before you are home
I know, gentle and humming you’re drawn in
To your videos
You waste your days away
What's the matter with you
Days a-waste away
What's the matter with you
Its hard to see it through
What's the matter with you
Never see it through
As the wind lisps through the windless, the endless, the lifeless
Entertaining you
I can't get from this feeling of pulling
Tooth after tooth
The key goes, i keep on feeling i try
Colliding into you
I hope there's something more to your sorry life
That i'm invited to
You waste your days away
What's the matter with you
You never see it through
Whats the matter with you
The days are gone away
Sad to hear you say
You waste another day

I've Gotta Go
02:15
|

Everybody hates me
And nobody loves me
Thats why im my worst enemy
I cant pay you back today
I cant pay you back to back today today today
Everybody shakes it
And everybody fakes it
But nobody breaks it
You wont believe what she just said
i cant believe believe what she just said said
everybodys naked
Somebodys gotta take it
The love we make
You get me off today
You get me get me off today
What would your mother say
What would my mother say?
She would have gone and fought the war
She would have opened up a store
She would not ever hesitate
She would have set the record straight
She would have had another son
She would not end what she’d begun
She would have gone so far away
I think i've gotta go away
I think i've gotta go away

New in Town
02:18

New in town, on a date
Get to know you, on the corner
Walkin down, Foggy morning
In the sun, In the sun
Open grave, Feels too late
Inside a bun, Saturday
Seein sights, All around
Spinning to the sound
how'd you face the morning sun, beat down on everyone
i've been licked when its boilin
jersey city early mornin
people talk, they might scold you
but i'll hold you, through those days
so forlorn, and so damn torn
you talked me down, talk me down
Chew some grass in california
Arizona, is where i'll stay
Davenport, Nova Scotia
I can't wait
People talk but that’s okay
they say what they're gonna say
stupid jokes might save the day
but I still hope for other ways

The power that you hold inside the world
The power that you make inside is yours
I can’t believe the things you said alone to me last night

Bus You Take
03:04
|

|
The 4 or the 7 is the bus you take
You can take it to the auto place
There ain't no reason for human waste
You'd make an effort for a nympho state
Don't go breaking my heart
I couldn't handle if I saw your face
I think that I would just stay in place
I cant wait wait wait wait wait
Don't go breaking my heart
Don't go
You never ask me anymore
You never listen to me
You never tell me anymore
And now the 7
We stop for chicken at the store
And now you're leaving
Leaving me with no remorse
4 or the 7 is the bus you take
You can tell me all the reasons for the big mistake
I cannot believe it and it is not safe
I happen to know the reason why you’re fucking my dad
Don't go breaking my…
4 or the 7 is the bus you take
Before the 7
You can get kicked off for it
I dont listen to your techno anymore
No the 7 no the 7 no the 7
Don't go
You never ask me anymore or
And at the wheel
I can't see it anymore
I have a feeling
I can't get feelings of this sort
We made it up and the dinner that we're eating feels so forced forced
Oooo

Don’t you cry for me baby
just cuz our lovin’ days r thru
I try to be kind for you
I try to unwind with you, I do
Don’t you push on me baby
Just cuz the rent is gon’ be do
I hate underming you
I'm right here behind you
But not in the way you’d like me to
Though bright days seem far behind
I constantly apologize
Want to make it feel alright
For you
Don’t you cry for me baby
Just cuz our lovin’ days are through
I wanna keep trying’ with you
Cuz i'm still so wild for you
Don’t hate me for the pain you put me through
Ba, bababababababa

Dumb wizards and lonely guys
They'll be thinking of half the time how you’re right
With their lonely stead
Dumb wizards are always wrong
Lonely guys can feel a wall and they hide
Much closer to you babe
Dumb wizards are always there
Lonely guys scare away
And they may along the way
If you were all alone
I would walk you all the way home
And I’d care, you could hear me there

I find this album captivating and atmospheric. There is a vogue for all things "cold" in synth music but this work maintains just the right temperature: pleasingly cool but not glacial, with no lack of emotion. I like the thoughtful lyrics, carefully orchestrated soundscapes and subtly changing moods.
