Lyrics

Save your arms and legs cause you're the mother and no one will hold us up for so long. We will always resort to fodder. We crawl in the crack, falling through your limbs. If she was here, she'd say be careful but she'd already let it go.

Do as I say, not as I've done. Just trust in me. Believe me.

When you left me, you didn't leave me a trail to follow. No, you just swallowed all the crumbs along the way so you could feed all the ghosts that hide inside your bones cause maybe if their mouths are full they'll stop whispering that you're better off alone.

It wasn't nice of you to go out without saying goodbye. So I think I'll hunt you down and punish you. Good luck trying to hide. My temper's a teacher with a hell of a lesson plan.

You might know this but I've got a rifle and stifling manners. You control this and any consistency scares me from progress. I don't show it but I'm catching on and can see through the pattern. Don't talk! Read this! Your strong upper hand will get lost in the process.

Got matters to attend to and methods to convince you to stay right where you

Are you ready to apologize? I won't believe you but it's worth a few tries. Don't look down! Look in my eyes! Go on and feed me some lies. Lie to me!

I make this into what you always keep from me.

Although your secrets are locked away, you forget that you left me a key on a day that's just memory; when we were young and were happy. When lying on the bed with not a thing to do and words unsaid, we were certain that things were perfect. Of course I'm bitter thinking things would never change. I can't let go and this is why I always make this into what you keep from me.

I'm supposed to see these guys and would really love to blaze with Kurt so bad. Should I straight up ask him? XD it would really make my life though to do so with Kurt.

I just got into A Lot Like Birds. I was sad Kurt left DGD cause I loved these two albums. But I get the feeling he fits way better with these guys. I like what he developed to but honestly I'm still waiting for that Five Minute Ride full length. :D

What types of screams are those? It's not pure fry scream, and for sure it's not false chord.

Heroin and opioids suck.... I'm still trying to get over them. It sounds cliche but really, just say no. I wasn't even shooting up, just smoking it. You'll think "oh I'll just quit now". Then you can't stop shitting, shaking, sneezing, can't sleep. It really sucks. But at the same time they are the love of my life...

LOLOLOL nah jonny craig is a washed up wastetoid! Kurt Travis is a much better musician. He can play guitar as well. All jonnys got is a voice and hes a fucking druggie who treats his fans like shit. So kurt travis is instantly 1000 times better then jonny crackhead.
