the past is a gilded throne that bears the weight of the corpse of my present vices
for decades i've failed to do all the good that i wish that i wanted to do but i don't have the guts or the discipline
the past is a violent contagion whose only interest is the destruction of anyone i've ever loved
for decades i've endeavored to rid my body of bacterial apathy and guilt but i don't have the wisdom or ability

guess I'm back on my shit
back in this mess
i only repent
under duress
yeah i'm back on my shit
flipping my lid
oh i thought i'd let go
but i never did
god's a jealous bitch
on the highest horse
and i'm full of god's
divine discourse
you'll never hear the end of this
look you're still on your shit
still in this mess
you demand to be praised
love to impress
yeah you're still on your shit
nothing is better
you assert that you try
but nothing is better
i'm a zealous bitch
on the highest horse
and i'm full of god's
divine discourse
you'll never hear the end of this
we're petty fucks

Gonna have a spooky party
Gonna have a spooky, fucked up party
Gonna kill our neighbors' parents
Gonna kill our neighbors' racist parents
Gonna build a shrine to Satan
Gonna build the cutest shrine to Satan
Gonna set some cops on fire
Gonna set some shitty cops on fire
Gonna watch a scary movie
Gonna watch a kind of scary movie
We're gonna party in our graves
Never get dressed and never shave
We're gonna party, but not really
That sounds fucking terrible

pull me over, jesus

Pull me over, Jesus
I’m a phallotenic princess
And I wear my sins on sleeveless summer gowns
Though I used to be naiver, God raised me an unbeliever
Jesus, you know me, I can’t let Mother down
Pull me over, Jesus
What will John think if he sees us
With my hands in cuffs, my lips against your ear?
All the pastors preach hypnotic that you’re heteroerotic
But my lips have turned a million Christians queer
Pull me over, Jesus
I’m not thirsty for forgiveness
I’ll atone for all the shit I love to do
And if lipstick gets me damned at least I’ll know I wasn’t scammed
Because a god who hates their children can’t be true

let's go in the garden
you'll find something waiting
right there where you left it
lying upside down
when you finally find it
you'll see how it's faded
the underside is lighter
when you turn it around
everything stays right where you left it
everything stays, but it still changes
ever so slightly, daily and nightly
in little ways when everything stays

i can't go on like this
02:39
|

i admit it i'm living a lie
if you can even call this living
if this is life i'd rather die
and i admit it i borrowed this skin
from a terrestrial cadaver in a garbage bin
i can't go on like this
i can't go on like this
i can't go on like this
i'm going home on halloween

Santa doesn't love you anymore
In fact he told me I should tell you he hasn't loved you since 2004
That's when you became a misogynistic neckbeard
Santa doesn't love you anymore
Santa kind of wishes you were dead
So he opened up your candy and he poisoned it with lead
Hopefully you'll die but if not at least you'll suffer
Santa kind of wishes you were dead
Honestly, I think that Santa's right
It's a shame what you've become, full of bitterness and spite
You read some garbage books and became unempathetic
Honestly, I think that Santa's right
Santa doesn't love you anymore

It's your birthday, Jesus!
Happy birthday!
Satan got you something special for your birthday!
He knows it's hard to have a birthday on a holiday!
You only get half the presents that you would in March or May!
CHORUS
Satan's giving us back our sins for Christmas!
Satan's giving us back our sins!
Everone celebrate, everyone celebrate!
Satan's giving us back our sins for Christmas!
Satan's giving us back our sins!
Everyone celebrate, everyone celebrate!
It's your big day, Jesus!
Let it happen!
Satan wants to be the brother that he hasn't been!
He knows it's hard to have a birthday on a holiday!
You only get half the presents that you would in March or May!

Every Christmas
The Dursleys tell me not to come
I don't miss them
But it'd be nice to have someone
To tell me, Harry
Lord Voldemort still hasn't won
Let's go to Hogsmeade
Get *stupefied* with Viktor Krum
It's so lonely here at Hogwarts
Even Umbridge has her cats
It's so lonely here at Hogwarts
When will Hermione and Ron come back
Every Christmas,
My best friend Hagrid dresses up
As a half-giant Santa
Swigs butterbeer from the house cup
Let's ride a thestral
Across the grindylow-infested lake
Snog for decades
Until the time-turner finally breaks
It's so lonely here at Hogwarts.
Even Argus has his cat
It's so lonely here at Hogwarts.
When will Hermione and Ron come back

my shitty <3
02:20
|

|
my mind is unwanted my lips are divine
my body is haunted my blood isn’t mine
i’ve built a wall around my shitty heart
i can’t let you in, it’d tear me apart
i die around midnight when no one can see
and resurrect shrieking and lie about my dreams
i’ve built a wall around my shitty heart
i can’t let you in, it’d tear me apart
i’ve built this fire to burn my shitty heart
i can’t let you in, it’d tear me apart

Winter takes the sting out of me
Trims my claws and files down my teeth
You thought that I don't give up easily
But I've always given up easily
In the end we're all tired as hell
Cursing God and taking our pills
And in the end we'll give up easily
We've always given up easily
Oh, it's so hard to not let go
It's so hard I know

veteran's day
01:53
|
|||
|
everyone's sick sick to their bones no one survives
everyone's so fucked up by just being alive
nothing changes or stays the same nothing gets any better
war is clearly a fucked up game it goes on and we let it go on
veteran's day worship the brave tools of the throne
fuck on a flag shit on a cop spend it alone

i only ever see the whites of my eyes
twenty five years i've lived thousands of lies
the grinding of my teeth keeps me from sleep
it doesn't matter i'm always asleep
i've never felt except when i have
i've never not never felt
when i cross the street i forget how to street cross
i'm so fucked i guess or not i guess
my state of mind is of gravest concern
i'll be okay but not really ok

greco-roman god
04:06
|
|||
|
i fell in love with a movie star
wrote her a note and i put it in a jar
drove to the shore in my parents car
watched it sail away hope it finds my movie star
i fell in love with a work of prose
dear to my heart but it wasn't me it chose
and my despair caused me to dispose
quickly and discreetly of my work of prose
i fell in love with a greco-roman god
whispered his name as i gripped his lightning rod
he'd twist the fates if i shot his wad
i'll never let go of my greco-roman god

I am sick of being sick of being
Trimming nails and pissing on the seat
I'm weary of my meaningless existence
Technically the world is flat, I know
But everything feels 2-dimensional
I'm weary of my meaningless existence

real things

|

|
real things feel far away
most real things are unokay
often unreal things seem real
it's rare that real things make me feel
in the mirror inside my mind
priceless clocks and worthless time
all of this is unokay
both real and unreal okay okay okay okay okay okay okay okay okay okay okay

the depths unsettling
04:50
|
|||
|
lie i patient through the witching hour
in the floorboards i can hear the depths unsettling
pine i latent while i watching over
autumn demon introspect a bride unsaddling
and i have almost seen this before
through the semen and the gore
i am awakened by the whimper of a child
and i have almost seen this before
always semen always gore
god is mighty god is meek and god is mild
cry i desperate through the still of night
for the darkness that consumes my heart is harrowing
dry i castrate the unsaddled bride
in the darkness i can only feel it happening
