You're pointing fingers again
But you're not the same now as then
(Maybe you are because your ethics were never were true)
Now it's us who you blame, when your sad life stays the same
All the mysterious potential rapist men
You wanna to change it all, but you don't put down your thesaurus or help out at all
I can imagine how excited you were when they called, psyched to be just another pretty face all while defeating your cause
You checked out on yourself
Glad You moved on far from us
Now your in the spot light again, your "team" is packing rooms watching trends (I hope your publicist gets to know the real you)
But when is comes to an end know you used the vag for leverage
(Why doesn’t anyone listen to barb object)
Cause you got long lists of problems
But got no time to solve them
Now we're glad to see your infecting another community, because it seems to me, change was never a vital opportunity, now your on a Shopping spree, I hope the kids will see a difference in you and me because egotistically, your off the fucking charts that's why we're glad you fucking checked out.

You turned your life into a dream until it started to tear at every seam. Ran away like a child while they tried, they just wanted to keep you safe from harm, but you're not fooling anyone this time. Your whole persona's come undone this time. You tried to hold your sickness in, painted on a big shit-eating grin. Tried to play that part like you had before but you just couldn't take it anymore. And then you had your thrill and you came crawling back. There's no fucks left in the atmosphere for you and as you stand right here destroyed I hope you feel it. You threw it all away and they're better off. Eventually everything will be so much easier without you.

Circles

The past is gone the future's in a haze and we just wander around this maze. We don't know where we're going we're just circling we make mistakes but don't learn anything. No changes, nothing learned, history forgotten all bridges burned. No changes nothing learned.

Spring Cleaning

I stumble on my past lives hiding in drawers
Scraps of paper like half-healed sores
Empty the contents spread out into the sunlight
Forgotten lyrics, bad punk rock shows
Worn out sex toys, fogged up windows
Balance and poise lost in the bottom of bottles
In the bottom of bottles
Bad night terrors, old shoelaces
Long blank stares. Lost in the dumbest places.
Rusted bearings turning in the wrong directions
At the bottom of closets where you hide the pornos
Motorcycle trannies, black and white freakshows
Underneath your secrets is where this story goes
When you feel yourself slipping away
And you have no idea where you are
And every movement feels a little more like giving up
And you see right through
It all becomes so clear to you
You see right through
You see right through

Hush, Hush

When he came into your life it was the happiest you'd been in a long time.
But that moment changed in a flash when mom turned the lights out
It was gone so fast
You had fear and desperation for the aftermath
And when he fucked you all night long
Your mothers excuses she screamed its all your fault
At thirteen years old you were made to think you were the one to blame
I hope you see one day it's not your fault
Your childhood was taken from you I hope you see it's not your fault.
The pain that you felt/the look in his eyes,/your mothers disgust/you prayed for suicide
You won't trust again/you won't even try/ you prey for the end and just close your eyes
And when he fucked you all night long
Your mothers excuses she screamed its all your fault
And if he wasn't already dead ild watch him die.

Pure Solid Gold

It was the best of times, the most expensive place. You had that cool, calm look carved on your chiseled face. With your mistress and multibillion dollar ceremonies. Pure solid gold as far as the eye can see, and we’ve already seen. 7 a.m. already kicking ass. Teacher says you’re the best in your class. Later on you’re posing shirtless on a beach. All that glory right within your reach.
Chorus: And you’re going for the gold. (You’re going for the gold) Yeah, you got that gold.
And you’d starve your family just to get there first because your burning heart is just about to burst. This is what $70 billion looks like on a motorbike. You know you’ve got that look. You’re solid gold tonight.
Chorus: And you’re going for the gold. (You’re going for the gold) Yeah, you got that gold.
You’re solid gold.
