The Whip 04:55
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 04:43
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
