We kill kill kill our enemies Make them pay for injustice Gag them with all our fears Because the people put their trust in us And it's never going to stop We steal steal steal from our people Feed them fucking frightening falsehoods Stuff their brains with commercials Now they believe that money makes them good And it's never going to stop We bathe bathe bathe in money Brush our teeth with bristles of gold All this waste produces a profit So we make our homes wherever faith is sold And we're never going to stop We lie lie lie lie We lie lie lie lie And we're never going to stop

I'm the luckiest girl in Kirksville 'Cause I've got you whom I can give into And you make me feel like I could be A tree that grew from sincerity You're a house of good built on heart, not wood What did I do to be given you? I'm the luckiest girl in Kirksville Shower me Suffocate me With words With thoughts With lots and lots of you Please don't go I know, I know Fate has a date To criticize time For being a fool And for acting to cruel All I need is to be close to you

Finding home gets Harder every year The endless search for Love: the utter absence of fear Well life will send us in directions Which we can never understand So we must make great decisions To fly, fall, or land We ask ourselves eternal questions Then never grant ourselves a reply Blindly ignore our skills of vision Put our faith in they that lie So we must make great decisions To live, to sleep, or to die

I Climb 04:34
The evening's almost done This is the last song to be sung The minutes are wandering away An end to this lonely long day Another wasted blink And I'm too tired to think I'd like to go somewhere and rest my head But this road is all I have for bed I climb And I crawl And I will blindly fall Away from the world Don't offer me your hand Let me sink into this pit of sand No kisses for the blisters on my feet Oh 'cause my body enjoys the heat And I climb And I crawl And I will blindly fall Away from the world Put away your star of hope This misery is all I know Keep your bullshit to yourself I know I'm headed straight to hell I climb I crawl And I will blindly fall Away from the world

We only meet at night You know I love the moonlight But don't make me wait for midnight By then I will have lost my sight I want to see you in the sunshine
