You hear the steel cry under the pressure All to aware of all my failures I got a ship, her name is Avalon She's my refuge from the sun Mission Control, All Systems Go! Whoa 7 6 5 4 3 2 One! Breaking rocks on a dying sun They used to say the grass is always greener but how the fuck should I know man, I never seen it All my fears come into fruition, Ask me what I've done! Mission Control, Please let me go! Whoa 4 3 2 1, What have I done Breaking rocks on a dying sun

Marianna 03:19
We couldn’t wait to get older, you know we never could Armed with these shit eating smiles we were always up to no good Oh we were burying our innocence With basement experiments Hey Marianna, I think that you should know That I can still taste the blood in the back of throat Hey Marianna, I think that you should know There is no going back Well I could feel the change inside and I know you felt it too We had never been this high, we fell in love with the new Oh we were burning with that teen heat Embracing immortality So tell me how much is too much of a good thing Because I don’t want to lose this feeling that's inside of me I was singing out loud all of the wrong notes While you were lying in your bed trying not to choke Wondering when the world would stop to spin And wake up wanting to start this whole thing over again

I'll see you in hell Annihilated vox resonate through the walls In pursuit of these ambitious strings Let the night consume the dawn I'll fucking burn it all Drugs found then lost, I'm lost again We are all outcasts so lets show them why I ain't afraid to die (I'm afraid to die) I'll see you in hell Disorder! Not disdain! Beyond the dash lies charcoal; in our wake the flames Let's become unstuck rushing tides This weary fucking rotation of the world defied We are all outcasts so lets show them why I ain't afraid to die I ain't afraid to die I'll see you in hell

I've been seeing strange shapes in all sorts of sizes They say that love is the truth no matter how it’s disguised There were square pegs stuck in round holes There were golf balls lodged inside of blowholes Pardon me for staring but I just couldn’t look away I know everyone is beautiful in their own way It makes my mouth dry, it turns my eyes red I was dreaming about leaving but I think I'm going to stay in bed I’ve been seeing strange shapes, it’s more than I can fathom My head is spinning like a windmill while I'm off chasing dragons There were pixies, dancing around a cyclops And a pair of skeletons, racing down the sidewalk I was creeping, just watching from my safe space At the wild wonders that decorate my landscape It makes my heart thump, it makes my hands sweat But if everybody's jumping off well I think I better dive in I can’t make sense of the scenery that surrounds me

Sunk Rock 02:57
Hash was home alone and could have used a helping hand Trying to save the worlds a heavy task for just one man The casualties were high hard not to have survivors guilt My baby used to sing now she’s just choking on the silt Just another casualty lying face first on the cold and soggy ground It was the day the music drowned I got a call from Craig saying that house was underwater But what’s dead may never die, only rise again, harder stronger By the time the day was over we all were covered in mud But no one ever minds getting dirty when its for something that you love Just another casualty lying face first on the cold and soggy ground it was the day the music drowned We kept our heads held high Waited for a change in tide Our ankles were soaking wet (Soaking Wet!) But our cuff were bone dry And when it rains it always pours and when it rains it always pours and when it rains it always pours and when it floods it breaks down the goddamn basement door.

Blackbox 03:30
Set the world on fire You got the petrol but you're thinking that it's holy water as the yellow mask break free I know in 30,000 i'll be drowning in the ocean So what's it like in the end I thought about all the things that I should have said we talked about about the I could of done Held your hand and waited for the oceans tides oh they'll carry me on Don't like the thoughts that you put in my head What makes you feel we're better off dead As I look out All I see is an engine fire She looks out She sees a world thats passed her by He looks out He sees the one that's on its side As I look out All I see is an engine fire

Too stupid to learn Too old to change Just a couple of punks stuck in our ways Better luck next time Too old to change Too stupid to learn You want to salt the earth you want to watch it burn Better luck next time Better luck next time (ad Infinitum)
