Trappin'

trappin a skunk in a deep hole
down in the only pit i know
there ain't no room for another
when i'm in the doom don't wanna be bothered
trappin a skunk in a deep hole
down in a pit of my own yo
there ain't no room for another
better make tracks and find your own gutter
trappin all day and all night
down in the scrap it was frightening
whatever happens here stays
striking like chemical lightning
the sky is symphonically dull
made up greys and patches of darkness
caught in a demonic pull
pulling me down down to the heartless realm
down to the heartless zone
where there ain't nothing but me and the zombies
i don't mind being alone
i like my misery don't need no company
there ain't no company here
there's just an emptiness mimicing something
something i thought that i knew
now i'm dissolving into the goo
into the goo into the grime
into the mucus into the slime
into the puke into the spit
into the nuclear waste and the shit
into the garbage gathering mold
in the dirty ditch by the side of the road
into the toilet's bottomless bowl
into the sewer of the human soul
what have you sold for a moment of pleasure?
what will you give up to be numb?
will you throw away your only treasure?
and can you even see what you've become?
just like molassess they move
they don't start shufflin till the first dose hits
then when the drug hits the blood
the blood hits the brain
and then comes the real shit
the eyes roll back in the skull
body collapses under the pull
how can something so unholy
make you feel so truly whole?
there is a hole inside of every human being
deeper than the depths of the deepest well
there is a hole inside infinitely wide and
deep enough to lead you straight to hell
dimebags & dollars are the chains of our slave collars
tin foil blowtorch dreams of endless crystal halls
every alleyway i walk a hellhound always follows
skeleteon nails scratching pale stone cold walls
life and death pass between a lighter and a breath
death and life pass between a dealer and a pipe
who you gonna run to when the supply runs dry?
where you gonna be when the harvest is ripe
trappin a skunk in a deep hole
down in the only pit i know
there ain't no room for another
when i'm in the doom don't wanna be bothered
trappin a skunk in a deep hole
down in a pit of my own yo
there ain't no room for another
better make tracks and find your own gutter

Lose My Mind
03:03
|
|||
Every time I find my mind I lose it again
I lose it again
Have you seen my brain?
I flushed it down the drain.
I thought that it was dead.
Now how can I explain
That there's a vacuum in my head
And the thoughts keep rushing in.
I don't know when they will end
And when I will begin.
Was it something that I said?
Was it something that I did
That made it all turn out this way?
I've been living on the skids.
And so every day I pray
For a shape to fill the void.
I'm paranoid that if it stays this way I'll be destroyed
'Cause every time I find my mind I lose it again.
I lose it again.
I lose it again.
Have you seen my mind?
I lose it all the time.
I put it down somewhere
And I return to find
That it's been filled with doubts
And cares and thoughts
That I didn't put in there.
Just like garbage in the gutter
Or a rabbit trapped in a snare.
Could I be so unaware?
Could I really be so senseless
As to leave my mind bare naked
In the wasteland and defenseless?
So if you see my mind
Would you tell it to return?
But even if it does return
I'm afraid I'll never learn.
'Cause every time I find my mind I lose it again.
I lose it again.
I lose it again.

Only Shadow
03:02

how u ever gonna see me?
i'm standing in a shadow
made of electric steam
fluid too hot to swallow
bursting at the seams like a honeybee
upon the edge of a flowers petal
head is caught in a fever dream
red hot as a molten metal
at the threshold of a portal
a doorway of perception
i got a score to settle
just me and my erection
they say it's natural selection,
survival of the fittest
i'm on the hunt for sheer perfection
and now i'm writing out the hitlist
baby can i get a witness to my life of sickness?
my thoughts like a tar so thick and viscous
brain like a plain grey jelly on a biscuit
spread across the bread like a slick meniscus
if you blink you'll miss this
look off in the distance
thunderclouds approach without the least resistance
rain and snow and hail and wind will blow away
the whole array that i display to keep the world at bay
but you can't hold back the flood
i'm just made of mud and clay
i'm just made of flesh and blood
but there is something you can't see
it takes the same shape as me
i can't ever let it go
it's the other half that makes me whole
i don't wanna live without you.
you are my only shadow
you have always walked beside me.
please stay until tomorrow.
i don't wanna live without you.
you're the only one that knows me
you are my only real friend.
you are my only homie
i don't wanna live without you
you are my only homie
you are my only real friend
you're the only one that knows me
i don't wanna live without you
please stay until tomorrow
you have always walked beside.
you are my only shadow
how u ever gonna see me?
i'm standing in a shadow
made of electric steam
the truth is too hot to swallow.

Outta Yo Head
03:05
|
|||
get outta yo head
get into yo body
i been lying in bed all day
when i just wanna move and party
i wanna go run and play
like a jack rabbit in mating season
i wanna follow natures ways
i don't need no rhyme no reason
i been living in a haze
of my own making fatally attracted
to the shake down and the come down and the run around
and i ain't faking when i say
i'm staking claims and breaking chains
of old bad habits leading me on
like an old jack rabbit in mating season
get outta yo head
you ain't like the undead
you ain't those zombies in the zone
you're on your own don't be mislead
there ain't no real solution
there won't be no resolution
you must purge your own pollution
let me urge you on instead to:
get outta yo head
get into your body
stop dreaming all the day away
go out there and get it started
only got a limited amount of time
that's set from the beginning by a grand design
better not forget it and you'll do just fine
get outta yourself and read the signs
get outta yo head (repeats)
get outta yo head
get out of your mind
get outta the rut
trust your gut
hit the play button can't press rewind
aint it something how it goes?
pain and suffering make the most
of what you got and dont get caught up
in the lies and empty boasts
get outta yo head
get into yo body
get into the groove you don't have to prove a thing to nobody
your some body to yourself and that's enough
that's more than wealth so call the bluff
shave off the scruff enjoy the struggle it makes you tough
get outta yo head (repeats)

There Goes My Skin
03:04
|
|||
there goes my skin again
there goes my skin
i'm moving inside out
i'm letting the outside in
i'm shedding all my woes
and all these scales of grief
i'm ready to move beyond
my limited belief
i been chasing my own tail
running down a rabbit hole
i got those snake bite dreams
with a snake-eye roll
now the die is cast
the past is over and done
i know this moment won't last
this is the only one
and the only one that i know i can trust
is the one who set this whole damn passion play in motion
the only way that i know i can go on my own
is tailspin crashing headfirst to the ocean
vibrations running up and down my spine
stimulate a new sensation
insulate my open mind
so i don't drown in information
hesitation, anxious dread
exit from my broken head
leave my vision clear instead so i can see
patience wearing thin
throwing caution to the wind
peeling back the outer layer
exposing flesh that's under there
staring right into the sun
burning out my retina
belly rubbing on the ground
taste the smell
feel the sound
slitherin thru the grass
like the present through the past
crawling thru the weeds
just like the way it used to be
there ain't nothing in between
the way that i think and the actions i take
destiny moving unseen behind the scenes
like a venomous snake
i'm biting the bait
i'm taking my chances
i don't know what the right answer is
i could be wrong a long long time
before i finally make up my mind
how can a person exist when they must submit to the will of the system?
how can a person exist when they must subsist on the swill in this prison?
you can't shine a bright light on a dark glass and make it a prism
ignorance truly is bliss and i'm gonna miss it when i got the wisdom
