It looked so easy to me, what could go wrong? No strings attached But little did I know I’d have to tiptoe, Through this aftermath (I don’t owe you shit) C. Potless and broken: that’s how you leave the honest man Yet your skin is numb to all those that bite your feeding hand On and on it goes, it never ends No end in sight So just take it from me, this joke belongs to all those that bite Now you’ve had your fun, just listen close To the words I spit: (I don’t owe you shit) C. -Middle- C. (I don’t owe you shit)
2.
How come I always end up here? How come it always ends in tears? C. I’m looking for answers I’m told won’t come Well lucky me, I found one Seasons Repeating What can I do to make you seem like you care? Now that I think about it, I don’t need you there Why should I bother with it? These things don’t change I’m glad I could keep you so well entertained C. -Middle-   C.

I guess I’ll never know I’ll never know of your true intent You’re my repent That was quite a show Quite a show from the demon’s tongue Oh, and then some C. Don’t pull the strings from my heart All over again You’ve got me thinking we’ll start All over again I wait with baited breath I wait to find I was your mistake Is this my fate? C. -Middle- C. I guess I’ll never know I’ll never know of your true intent You’re my repent

Flake 04:44
I thought I caught some early signs But at the time I just told myself it was all in my mind How you managed it, I can’t tell I took the bait like the fool I am, hoping high against hell We should have shifted from first gear On the cusp of something real, what a waste of a year You disappear into the London mist With no reply, just dire straights, was there something I missed?  C. Hey boy, I know your secret Don’t worry now, you know I’ll keep it You’re hanging on by a single thread Baited sharks sniffing at your heels in the water you tread In the end, you’ll always be this way Another toy, a shiny figurine in the game that you play C. -Middle- C.

Such feelings are dangerous Such feelings, they hold some truth Such feelings ingrained in us Such feelings in the bloom of youth You’re bad for me C. You’re bad for me Such feelings, they ebb and flow Such feelings intensify Such feelings, they’ll never show Such feelings from a time gone by You’re bad for me C. -Middle- C.
6.
A fistful of spite No, I won’t bite Yeah, you can leave your judgement aside Because I won’t bite C. You can say what I shouldn’t be So I can prove what I’m meant to be Follow me, follow me Yeah, you can say (what I shouldn’t be) A fistful of spite No, I won’t bite Yeah, you can leave your judgement aside Because I won’t bite C. Take it on the chin, and we’ll go for a ride Take it all from him, and I’ll wear it with pride  C.

Lizard Love 04:24
“This is for the best” you said Fear and doubt, I feel it spread Through my flesh and through my bones This is more than sticks and stones   Of all the twists life can throw Breaking through the status quo, because Even though it went this way There’s always time for you in my day C. It’s always you that I dream of Yeah, I bet you don’t, I bet you don’t at all It’s always you that I dream of Yeah, I want you to know, I want you to know This chain will never break O’er hills and far away This is where I thought we’d play But I guess this lizard love of mine Has shed its skin with me entwined C. -Middle- C.
8.
(Hmm) Consider this: You’ve stuck around for twelve, how about twelve more? Just sign right here, it’s crystal clear You’ve got nothing to lose, but that which you hold dear (Yeah) I hear your words They mean nothing to me, they fall silent to the floor You’re wondering which way I’ll swing This is trodden ground and your noose is naught but string C. You say you don’t need me now Well I say that I’m more than just a number (Hmm) Supposedly I hold value to you, like some trinket to adore Dishonesty, mediocrity: These palms should not be greased, nor granted amnesty C.
9.
I can’t shake that night It sticks in my head, a blinding spinning light You dared to ask a surprising thought I never thought would pass C. We could be insane Do you feel the same? Your truth could cause me too much pain Yeah, we could be (insane) I guess it’s true Given the time gone by, I should be over you C. -Middle- C.

Deepest Gold 04:24
Hello whiskey, my deepest friend Of which I’m glad you have no end You burn my neck and you soothe my wounds The darkest depths I’ve yet consumed C. Knock ‘em back to the sunset One more at the fold Burned out like a cigarette (Coloured deepest gold) The empty glass I can bare no more So once again, I begin to pour This golden syrup into the glass My deepest friend, we meet at last C. -Middle- C.
