Wind Up Dead 01:35
There's a war in my head and no matter who wins, I lose There's always voices calling, laughing screaming in my mind There's never any quiet why is peace so hard to find? Couldn't stop them if I wanted to I don't know what the fuck to do They tell me to be angry they tell me to be mean They say not to believe a single fucking thing I've seen With thoughts like that in my head it'll be no wonder when I wind up dead They don't have nothing nice to say, they tell me to get fucked They only want what's worst for me I'm set to self-destruct A passing urge they make it linger, where's the trigger? Here's my finger They've taken everything from me and still they scream for more I give and give it's not enough what do I even bother for? With thoughts like that in my head it'll be no wonder when I wind up dead Life's not easy, life's not fun Plant a big sloppy kiss on the barrel of a gun Don't have to struggle, it's easy to see My life's a fucking joke and everyone's laughing but me Ha ha ha when I wind up dead Ha ha ha when I wind up dead "Uh yeah, I always kinda figured one day, he'd, ya know, wind up dead"

Trap 02:00
In the blink of an eye everything went awry The way it had to be I watched them all beat their heads against the wall It made no sense to me Swallow all the lies and earn a measly prize A fucking feast of scraps All it cost was every single thing you've got What a load of crap Just believe the lies they're telling and buy everything they're selling And give everything you've got until one day you just turn around and snap Now I sit in shock while I punch the fucking clock Year after fucking year From 9 to 5 barely fucking feel alive What am I doing here? I cry and sob like a useless fucking slob Cause I know this is it Full of rage as I turn the fucking page On my last will and testament Just believe the lies they're telling and buy everything they're selling And give everything you've got until one day you just turn around and snap But watch your back because it's a trap.

The Void 01:38
I tear my flesh off, I climb the walls I sit for hours, do nothing at all I chew my fingers down to the bone I'm always nervous I just wanna be alone Inside the void, the void I've been running my whole life and I can no longer avoid the fucking void Cower in terror, shake and sweat Another nightmare, I won't forget I never sleep, I'll never die I'll stay stuck, always screaming "Why?" At the void, the void I've been running my whole life and I can no longer avoid the fucking void It makes me sick, it makes me sad It makes me rethink every chance I never had And won't get fucking back, my head's about to crack The time has come to say goodbye because I'm never coming back From the void, the void I've been running my whole life and I can no longer avoid the fucking void

Another Friday night, pack of powder in my pocket and I feel alright All jacked up on anxiety, a hit of poppers is all I need I'm sky high my head implodes, why do I do it? I don't know Cause once the party ends I swear I'll never do cocaine again I can't run and I can't hide, oh no I'm committing slow suicide Now it's Saturday afternoon, I look like hell and feel like doom Pick the blood out of my nose, pick the scabs from between my toes Sit and stink in my underwear, why am I alive? I don't care Take a deep breath, count to ten and swear I'll never do cocaine again I can't run and I can't hide, oh no I'm committing slow suicide I know how this story ends for Johnny Thunders and all his friends But that won't happen to me, no self-inflicted tragedy I know how this story ends for DeeDee Ramone and all his friends But that won't happen to me, no self-inflicted tragedy I know how this story ends for Darby Crash and all his friends But that won't happen to me, no self-inflicted tragedy
