WELCOME TO THE FOLD
You take my money
You think you’re great
You think it's funny
And I hit your face
You got your jesus
And I got my space
You got your reasons
And I got my case
Just got to sit yourself down
To contemplate
Get yourself a nice cold beer
And drink yourself away
You’re celebrating nothing
And you feel a-okay
You ‘re celebrating nothing
And you feel - A-okay
You think you're precious
I think you're shit
And I’d kill father
To destroy his seed
Oh nothing will ever
Destroy your greed
Just got to sit yourself down
To contemplate
Get yourself a nice cold beer
And drink yourself away
You’re celebrating nothing
And you feel a-okay
You ‘re celebrating nothing
And you feel - A-okay
Now when you break yourself down
Go to this place
You give yourself the reason
To get off your case
And when you break it down yeah
And see through this shit
You give yourself the reason
To live through this
Mama give, me my medicine
Mama give me my medicine
Mama give me my medicine
The one that makes me feel taller
Mama give me my medicine
Mama give me my medicine
The one that makes me feel so tall, tall
like a tall tree
Mama give me my medicine
That make me feel like a tall tree
Mama give me my medicine
That make me feel like a tall tree
Mama give me my medicine
That make me feel like a tall tree
You’re celebrating nothing
And you feel a-okay
You ‘re celebrating nothing
And you feel - A-okay
CAPTAIN BLIGH
I give you one good tiny reason
I think you could believe it
I give you one good tiny reason
I think you could see through it
I'm not the kind of man
That thinks the truth could hurt me
I'm not the kind of man
That thinks the truth can see me
You know a little bit goes a long way
You know a little bit lasts a long time
And the time has come to undo the wrong I’ve done
I am a grieving man
I can't believe the things I've done to you
I am a guilty man
And I can't believe the things I've done to you
I give you one good tiny reason to push that big suit too far
I give you one good tiny reason to smash him and his big car
Everybody thinks I'm blue
And what everybody thinks is true
Yeah
I just can't keep it inside
So you think it's you
So you think it's true
You know a little bit lasts a long time
You know a little bit goes a long way
And the time has come to undo the wrong I've done
I am a grieving man
I can't believe the things I've done to you
I am a beaten man
I can't believe the things I've done to you
I am a blood soaked man
I can't believe the things I've done to you
I am a guilty man
I can't believe the things I've done to you
I am a grieving man
I can't believe the things I've done to you
I am a beaten man
I can't believe the things I've done to you
I tried to pray
I tried to pray
I tried to pray
Yes I will give it a shot...
Yes I will give it a shot...
Yes I will give it a shot...
IT’S GONNA KILL ME
This girl's trying to kill me

She's my favorite piece of plastic held to my ear
Where do I go?
I don’t know
Where to play?
I don’t know
What do I say?
Whatever you say
Yeah, it's gonna kill me
Yeah, it's gonna kill me
This girl's got a grip- where's mine?
I spent the night walking home
I spent the last night dreaming
I spent the last night screaming
What do you need?
I don't know
Where do you stay?
I don't know
What do you mean?
I don't know
Where do you go?
I don't know
Yeah, it's gonna kill me
Yeah, it's gonna kill me
Yeah, it's gonna kill me
Yeah, it's gonna kill me
Yeah, it's gonna kill me
Yeah, it's gonna kill me

TAKE A PICTURE
Awake on my airplane
Awake on my airplane
My skin is bare
My skin is theirs
Awake on my airplane
Awake on my airplane
My skin is bare
My skin is theirs
I feel like newborn
And I feel like a newborn
Awake on my airplane
Awake on my airplane
I feel so real
Could you take my picture

Could you take my picture
Cause I won't remember
Could you take my picture
Cause I won't remember
Could you take my picture
Cause I won't remember
Yeah
I don't believe in

Your sanctity your privacy
I don't believe in
I don't believe in
Sanctity a hypocrisy
Could everyone agree that no one should be left alone
Could everyone agree that they should not be left alone, yeah
And I feel like a newborn
And I feel like a newborn
Kicking and screaming

SKINNY
So here you are in your small little world
Kept up like a little precious virgin girl
To hear about your grace and your silly face
Wrapped up like a knot in a ball of shoelace
And everytime I talk to you
It sounds like you're caught in a psychological flu
Don't ever let them see you cheat
Don't ever let them see you bleed
Don't ever let them shake your hand
Don't ever let them believe that scam
Chorus:
Skinny
And it will make you cry
Skinny
And it will make you lie
Skinny
And if it makes you soft inside
Skinny
At least you will not die
And if you take a good look at them
All caught up in their graciousless win
Every sin is their seamless smile
Will go on for a countless while
And just because they think they’ve won
It just means that the shit has just begun
Don't ever let them see you cheat
Don't ever let them see you beat
Don't ever let them shake your hand
Don't ever let them believe that scam
Chorus
Yeah, skinny, skinny, huh
(8 times)"
I WILL LEAD YOU
Come along take a ride
Across the sky for an hour
Leave your mind , take your soul
Fill the hole with flowers
From the lake through the trees
In the streets for the powder
In the creed for the freeze
I gotta place for this power
Cause I am a lie
Cause I am a lie
I will lead you for awhile
Take you place to place
Bring you to this pyre
See you face to face
Come along to this place
Take your sympathy with your symphony
See this dish a wonderful wish
It’s a perfect kiss it’s the real thing
See the pitch it’s the greatest of hits
It’s the missing with the wishing
At least you caught a smile when you coughed a while
When you did this kissing
Cause I am a lie
Cause I am a lie
I will lead you for awhile
Take you place to place
Bring you to this pyre
See you face to face
See you face to face
(I will lead you)
Face to face
See you face to face
(I will lead you)
Face to face
Yeah
See you face to face
(I will lead you)
Face to face
See you face to face
Yeah
CANCER
I cross the oceans
I cross the seas
I cross the mountains
Like a new disease
I cross the borders
I cross the line
Never to see the light
Till the end of time
I've seen the canyons
I've seen the cities
I've seen the prisons
That take such pity
When it comes to you
When it come to me
It's just money
Sets you free
Hey my children
What seems important won't last forever
Hey my children
What seems important won't last forever
Take a look at the earth from a plane
You'll see the earth, cut up and in pain
Take a look at L.A., from the sky
What you see should make you cry
Hey my children...
What seems important won't last forever
Hey my children...
What seems important won't last forever

I'm the scum of the earth...
I am my cancer
I'm the scum of the earth...
I am humanity

MISS BLUE
Could you stay long enough for me to say goodbye
You can be free as long as you're with me
If you could see the real me you'll bleed
If you could see the real me I'd breathe
Could you still breathe long enough for me
Could you still be long enough for me
When do you think I'll be okay?
When do you think I'll be okay?
If I should stay when do I pray?
If I should stay where do I begin?
Do you think I should watch you die?
Should we close our eyes and say goodbye
When do you think I'll be okay?
When do you think I'll be okay?
When do you think that I'll be okay?
When do you think I'll be o-kay?
Hey you Miss Blue
You think that I'm well to do
Hey you Miss Blue
I fell in love with you
Hey you Miss Blue
I think about you that's true
Hey you Miss Blue
I hate it when you cry
Hey you Miss Blue
I hate it when you say goodbye
Hey you Miss Blue
I hate it when you say goodbye
When do you think I'll be okay?
When do you think I'll be okay?
When do you think that I'll be okay?
When do you think that I'll be okay?
Hey you Miss Blue
You say goodbye
You say goodbye
Don't say goodbye
You say goodbye
Goodbye...
Goodbye...
Goodbye...
