Lyrics: Brain, I dont need you Brain, I dont need you Brain, I dont need you Brain, I dont need you What happens if I do this to that I Don't need that What happens if I do something back I Don't need that What happens if I lay on the mat I Don't need that What happens if I do something back I Don't need that Black sheep looking for trouble, where's the ATM? Pull the plug out What makes you think I need your help? What makes you think I like your face? Don´t need that Don´t need that I got that I got that Ultra Ultimate Opus Power I got that Ultra Ultimate Opus Power I, dont, need, that I dont, need that, brain I don´t need that brain What happens if I do this to that I Don't need that What happens if I do something back I Don't need that What happens if I lay on the mat I Don't need that What happens if I do something back I Don't need that I don´t need that brain

Hard Day 03:29
Lyrics: I'm about to lose my mind My life has turned to shit I fucking hate my job and I can´t fucking quit Drag myself Through the pouring rain Through the day It never fucking ends It's just another hard day Going through a hard phase And once again I'll drag myself Through the day and hit replay I'm about to lose my mind My life has turned to shit I fucking hate my job and I can´t fucking quit Drag myself Through the day Blow out my goddamn brain And make it fucking rain There is no way to end this constant migraine It's just another hard day Going through a hard phase And once again I'll drag myself through the day and hit replay I pull myself up and onwards With caffeine and painkillers too I´ll carry through, I´ll carry through It's just another hard day Going through a hard phase And once again I'll drag myself through the day and hit replay Going through a hard phase Blow out my goddamn brain And make it fucking rain There is no way to end this constant migraine

Bargain 03:29
Lyrics: I´ll bargain with tomorrow for a night with no pain Falling leaves, getting colder Back to my old ways Done with the sober phase Have the city lights glooming back at my eyes It's evident addiction never dies I'll bargain with tomorrow It's what I'm bent on To be better, now I'm far gone Lost my faith with the Money I With the money that I borrow Surely this can´t be what I dreamt of Falling leaves. The liquor burns I'll bargain with tomorrow It's what I'm bent on To be better, now I'm far gone Lost my faith with the Money I With the money that I borrow I bargain with tomorrow for a night with no pain. Pushing all my thoughts to the shadow till the morning sun wakes me up feeling hollow. I'll bargain with tomorrow It's what I'm bent on, to be better, now I'm far gone Lost my faith with the Money I With the money that I borrow I'll bargain with tomorrow It's what I'm bent on, to be better, now I'm far gone Lost my faith with the Money I With the money that I borrow

Lyrics: Stuck in a cellular 8x2 Between a wall and a fake nice view The walls look pretty See, feel, going through a tunnel Scared of falling in and out of economic trouble Subway Anthem, Dissonance Gray and broken Innocence Stuck in a cellular 8x2 Between a wall and a fake nice view The walls look pretty but only show you so much Won't show you who they've crushed Surely this can't be what they meant We're all parasites that pay rent Subway Anthem, Dissonance Gray and broken Innocence Broken buildings greeting brand new cars Dirty parks hosting cleaner rivers Tunnels made of stone and stone faced people dreaming life away We watch it slip away The worst part, I chose this life myself Subway Anthem, Dissonance Gray and broken Innocence Stuck in a cellular 8x2 Between a wall and a fake nice view The walls look pretty

Poison Pure 04:13
Lyrics: It has a grip on me in my brain Has everything I need sum for the pain It's killing me, poison pure, cut the roots I know it's the cure No sleep for a week, sick of being the white sheep but I can't leave Every day is a fucking joke I'll take something for the pain, to even the score I don't believe anymore (break out) But no matter the dream, the wish, the prophecy The regret in my wake is my legacy It has a grip on me in my brain Has everything I need sum for the pain It's killing me, poison pure, cut the roots I know it's the cure You're free to leave whenever you desire I know, I Know I wanna breathe in air, but still I pull in smoke I know I know I am free if I want to I have dreams, But they won't do I do the same things every day, hoping for change, what a joke Have some heart, lead me there I know I'm free, It's hard to bear It has a grip on me in my brain Has everything I need sum for the pain Its killing me, poison pure, cut the roots I know it's the cure In my brain There's everything I need sum for the pain Its killing me, poison pure, cut the roots I know it's the cure You're free to leave whenever you desire It has a grip on me in my brain Has everything I need sum for the pain It's killing me, poison pure, cut the roots I know it's the cure In my brain There's everything I need Sum for the pain It's killing me, poison pure, cut the roots I know it's the cure

Slip Away 03:47
Empty words from my cold breath as I slip on ice step by step It's hard to remind myself that spring will come It's hard to breathe But I'm still here New sprung leaves Flags of May Turn my mind melting snow away Falling into spring All down and worn out I've never felt so blue I'm closing curtains But still a light pushes through I'll just let it rot away As I give it up and slip away one more day of wasted time Bursting out with one more line I swear I'll be just fine One more day of wasted time I wish I could repeat the past be myself and make the moment last Spring will come All down and worn out I´ve never felt so blue I'm closing curtains But still a light pushes through The flowers bloom and still I find myself in bittersweet memories I wish I could repeat the past be myself and make the moment last Spring will come But I'm still there

Peeling Skin 04:31
Lyrics: I'll carry on feeling sorry for pity A blistered reflection, yeah it's not pretty I hide in the doubt and fear While the world is waiting By the gallows If I could raise my glass from this far down I'd turn my life around It's easier awake I would lie if there were noble parts in me Than to realize my own mistakes I would lie if there were noble parts in me As I walk home in the rain I'm dancing in my past again I stumble past the gate Barely awake I still see it In my shadow In the vomit in the drain I'm still the fucking same while the world is waiting By the gallows If I could raise my glass from this far down I'd turn my life around It's easier awake I would lie if there were noble parts in me Than to realize my own mistakes I would lie if there were noble parts in me I'm still dancing in the rain and shouting at the mirror I'm sinking with the vomit in the drain I'm still the fucking same Dancing in the rain, still the fucking same It's easier awake I would lie if there were noble parts in me Than to realize my own mistakes I would lie if there were noble parts in me

Leave 03:20
Lyrics: I know I cut you deep Make it worse in the heat Of every moment we're together And I still wonder why I can't fall asleep And I can see it so clear But I'm drifting in the dead water It always gets the best of me When you let me go for the ladder Just leave me alone But don't I didn't mean it, you know There's so many things I could have said But I'm still hiding under ground Please stay for a while and watch me go under Cold and low, sleeping in the snow Please, I'll change and cut out all the blow I'll do my best, a little less drunk, maybe I won't show up late It's not you, I promise I'm sorry for being dead weight There's so many things I could have said But I'm still hiding under ground Please stay for a while and watch me go under Please stay for a while and watch me go under

Somebody 03:54
Lyrics: Carved in stone: the date, the name Wishing for an endless crowd to make my mother proud Picture perfect body How I just want to be somebody A place to go, a stone to cry on So when the creatures are keeping me up at night I take a good hard look at myself in spite It's all I think of but I can't seem to shake The short cut story of my endless headache I hope it shows The flowers, the Tears The things I tried to be The struggle I called home Will matter when I'm gone When I don't have to breathe no more Let the worms eat my eyes out So when the creatures are keeping me up at night I take a good hard look at myself in spite It's all I think of but I can't seem to shake The short cut story of my endless headache The weeping choir doesn't matter at all just a deadbeat body underground with nothing to show it's hard to swallow that I'm only human after all So when the creatures are keeping me up at night I take a good hard look at myself in spite It's all I think of but I can't seem to shake The short cut story of my endless headache

Oh My 03:38
Lyrics: In the glow From the cigarette I watch heavy snow As it covers my tracks I've thought about the other day The way I've always done They're easy words to say but they're not mine They're not mine but still they feel so right. I know so well but still I don't I cry and cry, but I don't understand Step by step, but oh my Cold steps in the middle of the night, Miss the warmth not a light in sight Just too scared to make it worse Keep on locking all the doors I could do without the pain but I love it when it pours I love it when it pours I know so well but still I don't I cry and cry, but I don't understand. But oh my
