Cobra Spit 01:49
Cobra spit 
Peel the flesh till certain death Cobra spit The yellow eyes of no regret State of confusion The system is nervous Final stages of infection My heart bursts 
 The venom inside of me Corrupts my brain Cobra spit had sent you insane Cobra spit 
 Feel the poison burn below the surface Venom Blood transfusion Does this serve your purpose? Final stages of infection My heart bursts Final stages of infection watch my heart burst 
 Burn The venom inside of me Corrupts my brain Cobra spit sent you insane Cobra spit The venom inside of me Corrupts my brain Cobra spit sent you insane Cobra spit

You are dead Dead We’re the same, You and me Mechanically Human beings Why can’t we live side by side 
Now that you own the sea Don’t you know that we both breathe and bleed the same Created lines you can’t see separate humanity Humanity Bleeding red You and me Our roots grow from the same tree Not a game Unity Part of the plastic disease Bleeding red Bleeding red Our roots grow from the same tree Not a game Unity Part of the plastic disease Plastic disease Dead Dead You are dead that’s what the locals said Go Puerto Escondido You are dead that’s what the locals said Go Puerto Escondido

The cycle 
Short demise I’m not done yet 
Big surprise place your bets 
In my eyes a blank stare
 Left to cry you’re not there
 you’re not there 
I’m watching you bleed 
I’m watching you bleed 
I’m watching you bleed bleed bleed
 My life Not yours
 Prepare yourself to be a victim
 My life Not yours 
Prepare yourself to be a victim
 Don’t retreat
 My life not yours
 My life don’t retreat
 Don’t retreat
 The cycle 
Try to find your path in life
 You’ll get it wrong to get it right
 Hard to fight the cycle
 Of mistakes an example 
No one owns the land we forgot
 Forgot forgot 
Let me let me ask you a question
 When you walk down the street
 do you feel welcome
 Or do you feel like your being judged
 In our society built on greed

Retaliate 02:13
Plant a seed i need a shovel now
 Dug too deep no light to get out 
Sun to bloom dive to escape
 Adverse reaction to retaliate
 Plant a seed I need a shovel now 
Dug too deep no light to get out
 Sun to bloom dive to escape
 Adverse reaction retaliate 
Contradictions in your head make me sick 
Tell your friends their full of shit 
It’s a labyrinth of their disguise
 Choosing a path too demise
 When it’s time to turn the page 
You learn from your mistakes
 Will you roll the dice again
 Will you burn in your own flames
 Sun to bloom dive to escape
 Adverse reaction to retaliate
 Sun to bloom dive to escape
 Adverse reaction retaliate
 Plant a seed I need a shovel now
 Dug too deep no light to get out
 Sun to bloom dive to escape 
Adverse reaction to retaliate
 Plant a seed I need a shovel now
 Dug too deep no light to get out
 Sun to bloom dive to escape
 Adverse reaction retaliate
 Sun to bloom dive to escape 
Adverse reaction retaliate
 Sun to bloom dive to escape 
Adverse reaction retaliate

Body Parts 01:47
Lies you feed me
The life you lead
One day the truth comes out
Your voice is shaking
like my hand on yours
I feel the warmth fade out
I have no doubt
I have no doubt til your voice fades
I have no doubt
I have no doubt til your voice fades
I have no doubt til your voice fades
Voice fades out
I got nothing for you
They got nothing for you
I got nothing for you
They got nothing
Burning in flames
Body parts scatter the road
Body parts scatter the road
Body parts scatter the road
The devil slowly called your name
And death is waiting to see
You burning in flames
Burning in flames
Burning in flames
Burning in flames
Burning in flames
Burning in flames
Burning
Burning

Lost time swings
as a branch in the wind
Eyes locked frozen
watch as the clock ticks
Listen as our strangled earth weeps
Watch as our strangled earth weeps
Listen as our strangled earth weeps
Watch as our strangled earth weeps
Listen as our strangled earth weeps
Moon flavoured magnets
Seeping from your skin
Engraved in your soul
Your home speaks
As Clear salty tears
Your fear’s diminished
Please don’t drown alone in darkness
Please don’t drown alone in darkness
Listen as our strangled earth weeps
Watch as our strangled earth weeps
Listen watch
Moon flavoured magnets
Seeping from your skin
Engraved in your soul
Moon flavoured magnets
Seeping from your skin
Engraved in your soul

Crows 02:19
What you say and what you mean are two different things 
You hide behind a mask made of jaded wings 
Lip quivers 
I look into your eyes 
Watching tears fall in a puddle of demise 
What you say and what you mean are two different things You hide behind a mask made of jaded wings Lip quivers I look into your eyes Watching tears fall in a puddle of demise 
 Close the door Gateway to your pain Open windows so you don’t go insane Watching clouds circle in the sky As the crows dive in to eat out your eyes 
 Crows dive in crows dive in 
To eat out your eyes 
 What you say and what you mean are two different things You hide behind a mask made of jaded wings Lip quivers I look into your eyes Watching tears fall in a puddle of demise 
 Crows dive in crows dive in To eat out your eyes Pickled flesh Watching the sun rise Close the door Gateway too your pain Open windows so you don’t go insane Watching clouds circle in the sky As the crows dive in to eat out your eyes 
 I still feel the same as when I did without you 
 What you say and what you mean are two different things What you say and what you mean are two different things What you say and what you mean are two different things What you say and what you mean are two different things What you say and what you mean are two different things What you say and what you mean are two different things What you say and what you mean are two different things What you say and what you mean?

Follow the crowd
Chase some money
Become the lies of your country
You’re in the race but your crawling
I can’t take it anymore
Wana catch up to all whose walking
Cherry bomb drops underfoot no warning
Once we’re standing now your falling
Only believe what you see
Question what you hear
Looking for direction
Has never been so clear
Only believe what you see
Question what you hear
Looking for direction
Has never been so clear
Welcome to the toxic world
Poisoning the boys and girls
Why do scumbags rule the world
I can’t take it anymore
I can’t take it anymore
Follow the crowd
Chase some money
Become the lies of your country
You’re in the race but your crawling
I can’t take it anymore
Wana catch up to all whose walking
Cherry bomb drops underfoot no warning
Once we’re standing now your falling
Only believe what you see
Question what you hear
Looking for direction
Has never been so clear
Only believe what you see
Question what you hear
Looking for direction
Has never been so clear
Welcome to the toxic world
Poisoning the boys and girls
I can’t take it anymore
I can’t take it anymore
It’s gunna be better in the long run
Just you wait and see
It’s gunna be better in the long run
Just you wait and see
It’s gunna be better in the long run
Just you wait and see
It’s gunna be better in the long run
Just you wait and see

Gone 02:13
Even though you’re now gone 
I still hear your voice 
Feel the beat of your heart 
I feel the beat of your heart 

When do you say you need someone to help you? 
All of a sudden you have disappeared 
Your mental health has gone downhill for years 

I don’t know where to go
 Now you know what to say 
Welcome to the mirror 
It is that time of day 

You need help but you You don’t know where to go 
You need help but you’re lost in the snow 
Lost in the snow 
You need help but you 
You don’t know where to go 
You need help but you’re lost in the snow Lost in the snow 

Everyone around they don’t know what to say 
Is anybody looking in the mirror today? 
You don’t know what the fuck is your own name
 You forgot it and it wasn’t yesterday 
Why do you feel so blue 
Why do you feel so blue 
Why do you feel so blue 
Why! 
Even though you’re now gone 
I still hear your voice Feel the beat of your heart 
I feel the beat of your heart As I call your name I stare at the stars 
This tears me apart This has torn me apart Even though you’re now gone I still hear your voice Feel the beat of your heart I feel the beat of your heart
