New Slate 04:22
I just ran into a new outmate says he's been needing a new slate because he can't clean his own on his own says for the old one it's just too late I just ran into a brand new outpatient if you're asking me maybe he should still be in it because he can't clean his own on his own I don't think that the world is ready for this I can't clean my own on my own I don't know what the fuck to do with it I can't clean my own on my own I know that I'm not deserving of it I ran into you on the fourth floor in the fourth cooridor and your second eye was shut and it was black and it looked sore I didn't say shit I just held the door In the back of my head I hope you don't deserve it I hope you deserve more I can't clean my own on my own I don't know if I know it I can't clean my own on my own I don't know what the fuck to do with it I can't clean my own on my own I know I had a vision of a head on collision when I came to the other pieces are missing I had a vision of a head on collison when I came to you were missing

Terminal 04:04
it hit the bridge of my nose I went crossed eyed just to watch it roll it finally dropped just to land on a stone so I picked it up and I swallowed it whole now I know I reap what I sow just one drop that I ain't letting go what it took from me tenfold I stole Its a better way to go now ill lay low dropped the blow in the white snow broke four holes through four windows
3.
Avia 04:18
my cord it was cut I ransack all while ac/d c's highway to hell you push me I go to the back of my skull in my minds where you'll find a highway to hell avia outside my bedroom window avia across my bleached white pillow avia upside my right temple avia my cord it got cut i ransack all while ac/dc highway to hell push me I'll go to the back of my skull in my minds where i find over again a highway to hell avia outside my bedroom window avia across my bleached white pillow avia upside my right temple avia over the golden over the golden gate right over over and off of it over the golden gates to see another set of them
4.
Blue Room 02:36
in a blue room with a white door I sit on my feet and I stare at the floor and I brush my teeth I wish I could read I wish I had one single cd I'll have to make up my own songs Make them up as I go along sing them all day long make them up as I go singing "what the fuck do you know about any of this?" I'm attracted to the bar so i kiss my bottle then lean into the lender to talk about a serial killer and what he'd done can you imagine? even one of the things that he'd done? now there's bags in my eyes and I have crows at my feet after twelve long years I'm admitting defeat I got bags in my eyes and i crow at my feet add another fifteen years all of this is complete
5.
Payphone 02:17
There never was a pay phone There never was a pay phone I would’ve known I use to rack shit from best buy like all the time When I’d leave I’d always stay on my eye Could he do it all in two minutes time Could he go on living leaving Hay behind There never was a pay phone There never was a pay phone cause I would’ve known I know it’s not the most obvious place to stop and piss I walked a little too far in the woods and couldn’t miss I saw a few of your fingers your hair the top of your face I saw you laid out in your shallow grave Then I found a pay phone Then I found a pay phone told them what I know If I ever go toe to toe and react too slow If I ever lose ground and give in to the hounds I’m sure this is all and it’s slowly happening Because these bones just cannot hold
6.
Santa Ana 02:47
I’m just sitting here pissed you fucked up my tv time I was here at six o’clock on channel three I was just in time I’m just sitting here pissed you fucked up my tv time Santa Ana winds It’s not my luck that I’m pressing Santa ana winds Not no fortune read blessing I come home to a motorcycle in my kitchen I start looking around I start noticing everybody itching I come home to macaroni all over my floor Santa Ana winds Blown over now missing Santa ana winds Now it knows when you’re itching Dinners at the front door Dinners on the front lawn Probably from the Santa Ana winds Kind of love you can’t stand Blows away with the Santa Ana wind
7.
New Low 04:14
I cashed out Through a glass shelf At Catholic Charities I shake and I seize Waiting for somebody Or anyone to help me Soccer mom fed Me her children’s Cookies She brought me to Maine Med I sat and then I said Absolutely Nothing That wasn’t a new low This can’t be a new low Not for me But it’s forming This still no new low Come down see how low it goes As high as I am this is a new low
8.
No Name 02:57
I got parole 1942 because 1938 I went down on you Now my kids trying to know his mother Can’t tell you if he’s Walker or William either which way you’re never going to meet him Now my kids trying to have a father It was the wild west of Charlestown where me and my brother we all went down Now my kid gets his care from fosters
9.
No Idea 04:12
Reuben was the oldest My favorite was Ruth Worried what my mom might think Worried what my dad could do If they knew I was skipping school If they knew I was sniffing glue If they had any idea what I would go on to do They didn’t have a clue They had no idea What I’d go on to do No idea Neither did you No Idea What I’m about to do No Idea When my cousin Miguel first got home He lit a joint right in the middle of the road From his right front pocket he pulled out a photo He has a little girl’s head in his hand I know at the time I just didn’t understand Is that what it took him to become a man At the the time I guess I didn’t know Why he’d have her head in his hand I had no idea What he’d go on and do No Idea His wife too No Idea What he’s about to do
10.
Radiation 05:34
I’m the runt of the litter Ruth and mommy’s pretty little baby If I’m ever gonna get bigger if I ever feel a little better I’ll be daddy’s ‘nother mouth to feed Radiation is here You can tell just by looking at us Joseph can’t walk Me, I still don’t wanna talk to none of them When Miguel first got home After two tours and four medals he goes full metal It was when I considered him my hero At the time though I didn’t know There was radiation over there If I was there I bet I could tell just by looking at them Maybe we’ll reconsider What we do overseas what we do right here to our own families in our own country What do I do with my own How do I take care of my own again? What was it for When we were four Your head hit the floor It still hurts
11.
Godfather 04:54
“I got this” he told me When I feared for his safety That’s the kind of man he was How tough he thought he was When he was here with us I got this overwhelming Feeling as if I’m guilty That’s the kind of woman I’m not I’ll never turn my back on my family without giving one thought It’s not because Of what once was What he wanted from me Was to be what he himself he couldn’t be I’ve got the honors of explaining to your daughters What kind of man you were when you were here Denial ain’t such a bad word it all depends on which way it’s heard And I can hear it crystal clear standing right here You’ll decide which way you go The other road will be the road I chose It was nice to know it was nice to get to know

Muerte 02:45
In front of this single white candle I’ll pray In front of this single white candle I’ll bow my head and I’ll say it should Be Satan who is to die and now I’m certain tonight Richard for you I’ll cry because Muerte It’s got one on me Muerte It’s like a ripple in a puddle from a stone that I cast My friends and family want to look at me and talk to me as if I’m living in the past I’m not Even my little girl says she knows why the bad man did what he did and I still don’t She walks around uninterested and aimless now she’s an aimless kid because Muerte It’s got a few on you Muerte I don’t know why you told me this Now I’ve got to live with it It’s a pretty good secret Now I guess I gotta keep it
13.
The River 04:29
This rattler it bit me Not just me my wife she’s my only living family This inferno started to claim me Not just me my two best friends made the trip from Tallahassee I know you dropped it my coffee You stupid mother fucker the jokes on you I still would’ve drank that if I knew it was liquid nicotine But still your razor wire it cuts me Under my chin my heads in the woods when my little boy finally finds me The river it takes me I rode down with my sister Marylee There’s a fall around the bend Next weeks my wedding my honeymoon Today is the end It’s good to see you again I think the last time was my baptism You don’t remember that do you Quinn? Making that fools errand? The river flows through your fingers today a lot like then You’re trying to do God’s work for him But he’s so busy I’ll tell you exactly where he’s been Doing the devil’s work for him again He’s killing us all and leaving zero for Satan Undertow it takes me Just for doing my civic duty There’s a fall around the bend I was looking forward to the ride home but right now is the end Always the end over and over again
14.
Six Weeks 05:31
Six long I haven’t stopped drinking After six long months I realized this shit doesn’t sink in I want to tell you I love you and I miss you Or remind you to cut the shit before it cuts you We all know better than to feel a certain way Sure I know better but today it is the day Life's not a basketball game Our lives are not no gallon of ice cream I made it this far Without regretting one thing I’ve done or shit I’ve seen I made it this far Through 2017 Where everyone is laying down where they use to stand When everything was going according to plan Life’s not a basketball game Our lives are not no gallon of ice cream The reality of it all There's going to be worse new to offer you There will always be misfortune So take each breath with gratitude When I reached the fourth floor Where I'm not in control anymore This four is my fate and it's showing how to open the next door
