Taking Care of Yrself
01:42

building a tolerance to rat poison
so you can make sure you're safe
you never know, just in case
to be frank i can tell paranoia fits you well
under the care of yourself
we all care about your health we don't think you need help
your face is like a bruised fruit
you're bleeding from your gums
and now you're definitely mute
cause your tongue is numb
i don't want to make
judgements on your mistakes
i don't care what you do
even if it kills you

Lost Clock
03:11
|
|||

so now that i have your attention i will start
with a simple word on who got whose part
you're still the same female lead we love
and this awesome dude really brings the stuff
and as for me
i'll take a seat
and watch the play unfold
and i'll do as i'm told
as we near the end the drama will conclude
all the good guys win and the good guy wins you too
and as sure as i still keep breathing at night
you'll be wondering of what is keeping me alive
the dreams they are strangers striking matches in the dark
and in this dream i hang on to the hands of our lost clock

Square Negative One
03:39
|
|||
|
estimated time of arrival reasonable chance of survival
standing in the empty terminal loneliness is portable
even though
it weighs a ton
in fictional pounds
saw a man holding a sign didn't realize the name was mine
he held it in the air upside down when i went to leave i turned around
cause i know you don't want the fuss of needing me or listening to anything i say
i'm locked inside a time machine, inside a place i have been
up the stairs to the door you're on the bed i'm on the floor
i climb on top next to you i touch your legs and fall through
we're both inside, but we're still two that was a time, and now it's through
you were the one with whom i could believe in the phrase me and you
i'm back to square negative one, and thinking in terms of the long run

Head
01:24
|
|||
|
i can't help either you or myself
what i do is no good
i know you wish that it could
be
i can't control
what i desire to know
if i could just open up a book
well i wouldn't have to look
i wanna bury my head
that's exactly what i said
but ill still keep on walking
walking with no head on
and people will stare
but just see if i care
well i wont
cause i cant
let alone
live

Getting Low
03:25
|
|||
|
you came back to us
an unexpected trip
you knew what you did
and i smelled new life on your breath
what makes a mistake?
i don't wanna know
see how easy they come
you leave before they go
now i dream your
face in my head
i'll see you when
i go to bed
you know past tense so much better than the rest
you taught the moon how to shine on what remains of us
i can't begin to know if this will end
so i'll leave it up to you to tell me what to do

Getting Low Again
03:10
|
|||
|
i am just dying to know
what gets high and low
words will paralyze
to the tune of lies
show me that magic trick
the one that ends so quick
disappearing act
we just want you back
impossibility
the price we pay to sleep
all your faith and the leaps

On the Ball
01:52
|
|||
|
i don't wanna speak to no one not even the wall, there is none
i guess i just want to feel numb i'm on the ball
look at how the blood fills up every little girl's stomach
i will have an urge to throw up you are appalled
i don't answer phone calls from your parents
cause i don't feel like feeling like a pet
everybody needs what they lack but it'll never come so relax
i'm rotting in a ditch like plaque i'm never wrong i'm on the ball
you are appalled

Choo Choo Train of Death
02:48
|
|||
|
to come to a conclusion
the choo choo train of death is pullin in on my left
it's a local bound express it won't come back
i dream so that i won't think to try
took a window seat overlooks the street
you're not looking at me it's like we'll never meet
well i don't think that i should care what you're doing these days
does the song remain the same or can it change
you're the source of all my pain i'm just kidding about that
i'm just here havin a laugh and makin it hurt real bad
you could have a million suns you're just out havin fun
you know it shouldn't be that hard to make him come
and i will stay inside my room and i will dance with the moon
i got everything to do the whole world loves me too
until it blows me up

Different Ways
02:24
|
|||
|
recently i have known
different ways of being alone
it's not my fault if i can't cope
turn me off with the remote
loser sees what loser does
back in time it never was
there's nothing left i wanna prove
i shouldn't wait i shouldn't move
remind me of the words you said
i take on drink to forget
i just want to feel less
anesthetized so i can rest
all my friends they feel so fucked
count me in, the life's been sucked
right from out beneath your feet
one last thing i won't repeat

You're Better Than This
by Pile
supported by 4 fans who also own “Getting Low”
This album fucks as hard as dripping and magic but imo feels the most personal and emotional release of the three. It’s weird and frantic but hits this really interesting balance.
