White Noise
02:34

can't shut it out
won't go away
the screaming of
a world in pain
I turn away
and try to hide
do what I must
to stay alive.
I tell myself
it's all just noise
just let it go
don't lose my poise
so I move on
and live my life
lie to myself
that it's alright
It blends into the background
a sea of strife and pain
an endless droning white noise
that will not be contained
Can't bear the pain that surrounds me
Crying always agony
so in response I turn inside
do what I must to just survive

Days Go By

There's nothing left here for you now
I'm okay on my own
stopped feeling sorry for myself
I'm fine when I'm alone
you thought that you had broke my heart
and maybe it was true
but now I've found some self respect
I'm done with feeling blue
Don't try to fool yourself
that I still think of you
you're holding on to dreams
of things you never knew
The feelings that we felt
we faked them all along
and now we see the truth
but won't admit that we were wrong
I'm not sad
and I'm not sorry
I live my life
as days go by
I'm moving on
no time for sorrow
I live my life
as days go by
I'm moving on now with my life
I've finally hit my stride
stopped feeling sorry for myself
like part of me had died
and once I thought you made me whole
but now I am complete
I've fought my battles, won my wars
that self I did defeat.
I'm self aware and in control
rebuilding all I am
getting better by the day
I finally understand
the journey of my life
is what I select
I've conquered my emotions
my despair I reject

Better Than That
02:55

If you want to be a dancer
Got to feel it in your heart
and some not-so-awful music
is the perfect place to start
gotta go and tell the DJ
that you’re not digging this shit
gotta go and tell the DJ
that he’d better get with it.
What you really need for dancing
isn’t just a pounding beat
got to keep it interesting
if they’re going to move their feet
you need a mix of highs and lows
melody and bass
you know that one without the other
just sounds empty, out of place
Here’s a shout out to the DJ
Next time pick a better track
fucking I could write a club song better than that
you’re a fucking awful DJ
And your mix it sounds like crap
fucking I could write a club song better than that
8-bit, techno, hardstyle
house or d&b
all would be acceptable
no complaints from me
Synthpop & industrial
will score you bonus points
but you're playing shitty hip hop
that can't help but disappoint
Here's a shout out to the DJ
You're a fucking skilless hack
Fucking I could spin up club hits better than that
You've got automatic beatmatch but you're playing back to back
Fucking I could spin up club hits better than that.

Feelings

I don't hate you
I just don't care
you think I'm a jerk
and I think that's fair
you needed someone
who just wasn't me
that it couldn't work
was easy to see
You're living your life
and I'm doing the same
I can't see a cause
that we have to complain.
our lives aren't perfect
but no one's is
despair is not worth it
the world forgives.
This is not a song of feelings, no?
I've none left to feel for you.
It's not a song of emptiness
not a heart that's broke in two.
Not a song of love or hate
emptiness or doubt.
these are the emotions we are fine to do without.
When you let go
the healing begins
the release of anger
forgiveness of sins
to hold to the past
is a mistake
but from this day
it's not one we'll make

In The Morning
03:39
|

I've got the body
got the moves
and I know you know
see you staring
as I'm dancing
from across the floor
hit the bar
flash a smile
and I say hello
get the feeling when you leave
you will no go alone
I strike up conversation
yeah, I'm full of charm
I am playing up my life
while you are spinning yarns
yeah we both know what we want
and we're in luck tonight
'cause you know that neither one is putting up a fight
Come on baby let me disappoint you
you know I'm going to disappoint you
Come on baby let me disappoint you - tonight
In the morning you'll regret
every second that you spent
falling for my charms
winding up here in my arms
being disappointed - tonight
we grab a cab
and we're heading back to my place
getting frisky in the back
we're picking the pace
throw some money at the driver
and we hurry in
one more shot and we are ready
to begin.
half an hour later
we are both asleep
and the things you came to do
are all long complete.
you got whatever satisfaction I could give
Not my best performance
but that's relative.
Come on baby let me disappoint you
you know I'm going to disappoint you
Come on baby let me disappoint you - tonight
In the morning you'll regret
every second that you spent
falling for my charms
winding up here in my arms
being disappointed - tonight
when I wake I find a note beside my head
I read it as I stumble out of bed.
"you're fucking disappointing
the worst I've had
I never thought that anyone could be so bad"
I hung my head in shame
I've seen its like before
and I know it's not the last
I know there will be more.
Come on baby let me disappoint you
you know I'm going to disappoint you
Come on baby let me disappoint you - tonight
In the morning you'll regret
every second that you spent
falling for my charms
winding up here in my arms
being disappointed - tonight

Disappointment
02:31
|

How can you help but be disappointed?
Knowing what you know about who I am.
How can you think that there is something worthy
Of your time and your attention why do you give a damn?
All I ever am is a disappointment.
This is something that you should have learned by now.
A constant fucking fuck up with a fucked up life.
I could be bound for greatness but I've blown it now
I've tried to not be such a disappointment
I've tried and I've failed every time somehow
I know that I should get back up and keep on trying
but I've failed so much I fear that it's impossible now
I try hard not to be such a disappointment
But I know it's all I am and all I'll ever be.
I know that there will never be a single reason
For people who I know to have respect for me

100 Years
05:14

We are fleeting
Like a flash of lightning in the night
Illuminating
For a moment then we're out of sight
No one will remember us
When we fade from this life
the years destroy the memories
of every bit of joy or strife
in one hundred years
Oceans rise
Empires fall
Nothing is constant
Change conquers all
One hundred years
Erase the past
Who we are
Can never last
In our conquest
we are self assured we can not fail
there is no contest
we will shine so bright while others pale
we will just delude ourselves
pretend we are as gods
we can't accept reality
that we can never beat the odds
in one hundred years
Oceans rise
Empires fall
Nothing is constant
Change conquers all
One hundred years
Erase the past
Who we are
Can never last
We continue to try
We pretend not to see
When all this is over
There's nothing left
Of you or me
Oceans rise
Empires fall
Nothing is constant
Change conquers all
One hundred years
Erase the past
Who we are
Can never last
