F*CK BEING NORMAL

Fuck being normal
I think it's kinda important
To stray from what your informed
If you think it's important
You gotta be willing
To do whatever it takes
To make the most of a place
That's being eaten by flames
I didn't know
What was going on with me
Until I was free of all the people telling me I couldn't do me
I'll do me
I think
I couldn't have done a thing even if I tried
But now, I see
I been sitting around letting time pass by
And now, I think
I'll make the most of a shit survival
Fuck being normal
I wanna make a big statement
I wanna cause a scene at the guillotine
And make them lose their minds
I'm gonna stay
Out of my way
I think I couldn't have done a thing even if I tried
But now, I see, I been sitting around letting time pass by
And now, I think
I'll make the most of a shit survival
My mistakes
Are mine to pay
Just take away
My head, my pain
My history
Can't you see what's in front of me
Won't you free me of anxiety
Will you come to the side of me
Take me away from society
Fuck being normal
I think it's kinda important
To stray from what your informed
If you think it's important
You gotta be willing
To do whatever it takes
To make the most of a place
That's being eaten by flames
I didn't know
What was going on with me
Until I was free of all the people telling me I couldn't do me
I'll do me
I think
I couldn't have done a thing even if I tried
But now, I see
I been sitting around letting time pass by
And now, I think
I'll make the most of a shit survival
All it takes
Is suffering
But misery
Likes company
So stay with me

Gravity

I need more gravity
What a letdown
Disappointing face of operations
Put a bet down against me
Cause' you know that I won't succeed
I'm falling?
You say that but you don't know what it means
My head is a mess of chaotic dreams
I know how it seems but I'm doing me
I need more gravity
I need more gravity
I think I'm losing my head
I think I'm losing my dread
What a rundown letdown
Why did I do this to me
What a freakshow
Pessimism running in your veins like it's a drug now
You're shooting straight epinephrine and losing your mind
Look in the mirror and ask yourself why
You lived all this life, was it just to die?
I need more gravity
I need more gravity
I think I'm going to hell
I think they're breaking my shell
What a rundown letdown
Why did I do this to me?

love story of a cynic

I think I'd die without you by my side
(I think I'd die without you by my side)
I think I'd die without you by my side
(I think I'd die without you by my side)
I think I'd die without you by my side
I've been fuckin' with the pills
But you got my head right
Got me lookin at the future
And making this music
And when you look at me
I know that I can do it
I think I'd die without you by my side
(I think I'd die without you by my side)
I think I'd die without you by my side
(I think I'd die without you by my side)
I can't lie
I've been trying to survive
And it's pretty fuckin' hard
When I just don't have a life
So you gave me half your soul
So mine won't be broken
Every time I meet someone I am misquoted, and I
Went to take on a brand new trend
I was thinking of just sittin' back
And takin' life in
But I know I'd never let me
My mind it is threatening
To take the words from my head
I think I'd die without you by my side
(I think I'd die without you by my side)
Ay, ay stay right here cause everything's a let down
Ay, stay here cause everything's a let down

That's enough
Get it going, middle fingers up
That's rough
Cog in the machine, we won the cup
I love
When I bottle up and turn to rust
Enough
I think I've had it, let's abandon trust
They look at me like a wendigo
I'll transform, and become a self righteousness cannibal
I got a thousand miles to go
I'm a wreck, I don't get a simple thought I think it out
Lay down
Lay down
Lay down
On the ground
Take a deep breath, get ready to burn this place down
To the ground
I'm sick of contemplating on what the hell my meaning is
Please take me
Away from the cowardly ways that are pulling me in
I'm gone
Lost to a prison that's all my own
I don't know what I am
I think I'm full sin
I don't know how it ends
Can I just get a win
Can I take it all in
And then I tell 'em
That's enough
Get it going, middle fingers up
That's rough
Cog in the machine, we won the cup
I love
When I bottle up and turn to rust
Enough
I think I've had it, let's abandon trust
Can you hear me?
Will you let me in?
Can you hear me?
Will you let me in?
Can you hear me?
Will you let me in?
Can you hear me?
Will you let me in?
Enough
Get it going, middle fingers up
That's rough
Cog in the machine, we won the cup
I love
When I bottle up and turn to rust
Enough
I think I've had it, let's abandon trust
They look at me like a wendigo
I'll transform, and become a self righteousness cannibal
I got a thousand miles to go
I'm a wreck, I don't get a simple thought I think it out

Franchise
02:15
|

Yea, I want to build a franchise
Want to sell goods
Want to make a profit
Let's see what I cook
Maybe I'm evil
But even Knievel
Risked his life everyday to sell tickets to people
Why is it that anybody making money's bad?
Who are you to tell me how to live?
I think it's pretty cool
If you turn a dream into a million cash
Then I think you're living right and doing what we all need to
I'm living
I'm breathing
Take me away from the place that I've always been
This fucked up nightmare I've envisioned
So they drag me down
sticks and stones they drown me out
But words, they piss me off
Always making music for the dream Never thinking bout the money
But wait 'till the royalties
Roll in like casualties
To homicide as they're counting the bodies
Yea I want to build a franchise
Want to sell goods
Want to make a profit
Let's see what I cook
Maybe I'm unholy
But how the hell would I
Give all that I could if I didn't have nothing
Yea I'm twisted
For more than enough
Because I was working for it
But I guess I should've
Pulled away from the feeling of success
But now it's in my grasp, and I'm a take that
I think I'm winning
But I've got little left
I got a job and my music, so I'll just flip the beat back
Yea I want to build a franchise
Want to sell goods
Want to make a profit
Let's see what I cook
Maybe it's tyranny
But even mercury
Sang out how he did for all of the publicity

God's Gonna Cut You Down
03:25
|

You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
You can run on for a long time
Sooner or later, God'll cut you down
Sooner or later, God'll cut you down
Go and tell that long-tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back-biter
Tell them that God's gonna cut them down
Tell them that God's gonna cut them down
Well, my goodness gracious, let me tell you the news
My head's been wet with the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee, talking to the man from Galilee
All the people, they been asking what the angels think
But they look at the ground and hide all of their shame in the soles of the shoes on their feet
They call my name and my heart stands still
When they all said "Avery, go to hell!"
Go and tell that long-tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back-biter
Tell them that God's gonna cut them down
Tell them that God's gonna cut them down
You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
You can run on for a long time
Sooner or later, God'll cut you down
Sooner or later, God'll cut you down
Well, you may throw your rock, and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's done in the dark will be brought to the light
So God, please, cut them down
You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
You can run on for a long time
Sooner or later, God'll cut you down
Go and tell that long-tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back-biter
Tell them that God's gonna cut them down
Tell them that God's gonna cut them down
Tell them that God's gonna cut them down
