The Whip

There's a caller on the line
This happens every time
It says, "Everything, it hurts"
We bleed out every word
It's a shame, this expectation
This will hurt a bit, I know
But it's out of my control
Every single day is a tragedy
And every step we take, a miscalculation
The key to keeping myself tough
Stay out of touch
With the ones you love
The key to keeping myself tough
Completely numb
This is all too much
It's a shame, this disappointment
This will hurt a bit, I know
But it's out of my control
The key to keeping myself tough
Stay out of touch
With the ones you love
The key to keeping myself tough
Completely numb
This is all too much

Wring Me Out

All these ups and downs
We twist and shout
In the wake we must go
Further south and far away
From this suffocating routine
How long 'til we break?
There are days I can't find time to breathe
How long 'til we break?
A day in Mexico
Heart beats slow
But the pulse comes back in
We can live and die on this beach
I do not miss anything back there
How long 'til we break?
There are days I can't find time to breathe
How long 'til we break?

First Prize
04:47
|

I've been awake now for twenty hours or more
These ears won't stop ringing
These eyes just won't focus
This is all I aspired for
If I win, what's my prize?
If I lose, won't I get a break?
If I win, what's my prize?
You see it don't work that way
I've been awake now for thirty hours or more
And yet for you, this seems so familiar
I don't know what to think
We all sold our souls
And gave up all self-control
If this is winning I'd rather just say "Fuck it all"
If I win, what's my prize?
If I lose, won't I get a break?
If I win, what's my prize?
You see it don't work that way
