New Scars 02:35
Gimme gimme new scars, gimme your face You never never been so bloody disgraced Gimme gimme new scars, gimme that grace I’ll bet you never felt the thrill of that chase A pretty little song to fill the odd space A fading little thought to finish that race A pitiful dissolve from feeling displaced Derivative design for filling these days Gimme gimme new scars, straighten that spine Forgetting your advice to spit on that shine Gimme gimme new scars, singing old songs You’ll never get tired of proving me wrong A dizzy little plot for pleasing your crowd From pettiest thoughts to screaming out loud You’ll never be absolved from breaking that frame I’ll never be absolved from feeling no shame

Old World 02:50
Didn’t you get what you want Waiting on names for your ghost to get off Digging the scene just to say arrived Crunching the numbers, you’ll never survive Body’s in place for a desperate charm God it’s obscene, no need for alarm You’re facing the past like a tortured review They’re comin’ again so what else can you do And we all keep fiddlin’ as the old world burns Can you sing these sad songs for the lessons learned? Taking the dog for a walk Destiny waits for a moment to talk Dying alone is a torturous scene Gimme a break with your chance to redeem Filling a space for the next one to go Diamonds are rough and I need you to know The cheapest redemption is what I deserve The jury is out for the master to serve And we all keep fiddlin’ as the old world burns Can you sing these sad songs for the lessons learned? Feeling the years as the days let you down Dying the grays like a seasonal clown Chewing on roadkill in front of the fawn Bleeding the soil for the thirst of the dawn Jumping around just to say you’re alive Lighten your boots as you’re taking a dive Drowning your sorrows and saying goodnight I’ll bet you my life for a reason to fight And we all keep fiddlin’ as the old world burns Can you sing these sad songs for the lessons learned?

Gimme a hammer and I’ll smash it down Calling your name as I hit the ground Taking advice from a nursery rhyme Guaranteed for a real good time Walkin’ on eggshells to sing this song Killing myself to admit you’re wrong Blinking in code ‘cus your body’s gone Faking the funk like a regular John No need to worry, turn out the light Forsake the panic, just say goodnight The face of your desire won’t change a thing Drinking the punch ’til the feeling’s fine Shovin’ your wish where the sun don’t shine Fancier lust for a crashing car This is the death of a falling star Glamorous feed for the starving fawns Trading my queen for a thirsty pawn Bury the lead when it’s time to go Shading the seed when it’s time to grow No need to worry, turn out the light Forsake the panic, just say goodnight The face of your desire won’t change a thing Don’t blame the sun Those fading stars The somber moon Won’t phase me now Your bleeding heart just takes a bow Your precious art won’t save you now

Dust 04:07
You left my body in the dust A shell of what I was And so it goes A fate nobody has to know But everybody does And so it goes But it’s what I deserve for breaking hearts to make these words work A broken vessel of desire Blood staining everything inside these doors Another flesh without a soul Just dance the pain away It’s such a bore But it’s what I deserve for breaking hearts to make these words work You left my body in the dust A shell of what I was And so it goes Was just admiring the view instead of making love The choice was yours But it’s what I deserve for breaking hearts to make these words work
5.
Wild Swings 03:08
No need to panic for the wild swings taken To celebrate the classic rules we’re breaking, so promise me you’ll leave I’ll be the ghost you’ll never see The phantom’s haunting me since God’s forsaken And cast a spell to watch the bones we’re shaking off Falling gracefully She’ll be the host we’ll never be No need to panic for the wild swings taken To disappoint the basic clowns they’re faking, so promise you I’ll leave You’ll be the ghost I’ll never see

Beyond 04:24
7.
Chasing the demons with your blood in my eye Talking in circles ’til you reach for the sky Sick and I’m desperate and I’m falling apart That baby’s fuckin’ arrow aimed straight to your heart Got this disease It’s taking it’s time You reach for the call to hear me choke on the line Got a desire to kill the voice in my head You call it a sickness as I pray for the dead Swallow it down, make me scream it out loud That pugilist poison gonna make you feel proud Skin’s feeling loose and the pen is a sin With dead-eyed stare and a shit-eating grin I’ll pay for the hassle like there’s no fucks to give and trade in my health for a reason to live Got this disease It’s taking it’s time You reach for the call to hear me choke on the line Got a desire to kill the voice in my head You call it a sickness as I pray for the dead You’re waiting for them to fall You gotta make it happen Got this disease It’s taking it’s time You reach for the call to hear me choke on the line Got a desire to kill the voice in my head You call it a sickness as I pray for the dead
