Gut Reaction 02:17
walking talking cold concrete death beds and broken heads broken glass and broken dreams. you never had a chance and now the doors are closed there's a pair of eyes watching you from where the darkness grows. back alley he's got a knife gut reaction took his life gut reaction. you live your life try to do no harm caught in the fire pull the alarm you've taken all the right roads this one took you astray made you the victim made you the prey.

Too Late 02:30
every time i try to talk to you all i get back is static and strangers voices and i start to wonder if anything means anything to anyone anymore or if everything just means nothing now. can i talk to you? no you're not there the night turns to day so quick and i'm still right here. the rain starts coming down coming down so hard it crushes and drowns the flowers it was meant to water and the headlights splinter in the rain and they shine me down like a rat on the factory floor.

there's a place where i like to go no one smiles nothing grows in this kind of place theres' death in the air and blood on the walls but it's got this lure it's always looking to make you sicker but it's always got the cure. in the snake pit cut me scissors knives in the snake pit won't you come inside. there's a place where i like to go there's a place you never felt so fucking low until you've been down in this place i don't want to feel cheated again i don't want to just take it again i just want to get the knife out of my back and go swimming in the snake pit again. in the snake pit you can't trust anyone.

the self loathing doctrine that never ceases i want to break myself into a million pieces. two minus one i'm all alone. i sit and listen to fingernails scraping over the walls the wolves are waiting. right through my heart i'm all alone. you think the dirt was never flowers and ivory doesn't stain animals like you just die away. all night long i roam the streets you're my favourite new disease. two minus one i'm all alone. i walk alone.
5.
Bitter Taste 01:25
spoon-fed lies never tasted so sweet driving spikes through his hands and feet. what's that bitter taste in your mouth? people ask about all the scars they find they don't see the scars on your mind. stare into the mirror and fall into the abyss scribe your elegy and seal it with a kiss.

Choke 03:30
words didn't work right when i spoke vertigo-a-lingo stutter and choke memories like statues frozen in time monuments to all my faults i keep inside this is now and that was then but i don't ever want to talk to you again. breathe in your choke that's pride in your throat you choke. when the cold comes creeping through try to forget me and i'll try to forget you we both long for something more we've got our egos but we're both bitter and sore is this that thing that you call pride feelings that we're ashamed of we bury and hide.
