Rotten Teeth 03:40
Good morning I saw you in my dream In a world we'll spawn We're chess piece royalty of solemn pawns They all bid you awake Lay down a gold bouquet Rosy coffin clogger Pulled a veil over my face Brilliant skies Dark horizon Spirals entice Why the hell did I say no Empty pumpkins grow dormant volcano Your only home Hold your breath and jump inside A smile without eyes A treat I baked It's doughy and expired Will you tire of the taste Find a home for all the skulls Light basking on tombs Green still lingers by and by Past my helium balloons Toxic clouds Safe cement caves Shady eyes You have everything you need Candles light My own recipe No surprise You forgot all about me I'll abide To tedious tides Salty eyes Sting with each dive Oh What is next To dismember He breaks his neck You crush my shoulder Squeeze Every last Tube of frosting I'm empty You've just begun rising Oh Last in line Do not despair There's enough Crumbs for everyone Steal just one Sweet sugary taste Drink up Fly away Lather me Gleaming pristine glaze Smile Drown the page Frost over Caramelized mistakes Cut up Melt the cake La la la La da da da da Wake up But stay in place Life is a Dumb video game And I lose it Everyday Why do you Always try to take My turn Each time we play Spoil sweets With words I couldn't say Sprinkles In disarray I'm your napkin And you think it's okay Shut up Go away Steal just one Sweet sugary taste Drink up Fly away Lather me Gleaming pristine glaze Smile Drown the page Frost over Caramelized mistakes Cut up Melt the cake la la la La la da da da Consume Submit obey

The Kettle 03:02
Just a sliver Slight, still figure Moving upwards Growing smaller You can't follow Too weak, too shallow Stripped wings too frail To bare you upwards Tin Angels circle, embrace you Bright fingers crawl up, caress you White hot, they'll dig in, they'll burn you Black, burned, black Bright red, they're watching your eyes shift Down, down, down But don't think about that now But are you leaving soon? Look away don't think about that now But are you leaving soon? Shut your mouth, don't think about that now But are you leaving soon? But are you leaving soon? Just a sliver Gray-black figure Like a storm head Angel of death Watch you wallow To meek to follow Tail tucked inward Hunched, bowed figure Pious hands high Beg for mercy Hurtling higher Growing smaller Tin Angels circle, embrace you Bright fingers crawl up, caress you White hot, they'll dig in, they'll burn you Black, burned, black Bright red, they're watching your eyes shift Down, down, down But don't think about that now But are you leaving soon? Look away don't think about that now But are you leaving soon? Shut your mouth, don't think about that now But are you leaving soon? But are you leaving soon? But are you leaving soon? But are you leaving soon? But are you leaving soon?

ぬいぐるみ (Nui Gurimi) / Stuffed Animal Wander Off too far Box up Your heart Quiet Stalling Won't work You'll see Rip me from my roots Peel off my petals Glitches drown out what leaves haven't already froze Never go home Kill or perish kill or perish In this world that is all I am programmed to Understand I'm Only obliged Stuffed animal In a garden of prizes Don't you want love? Everyone does I'll give you some idiot die Struggle I'll break you Asphyxiate your determination I can't understand it Never forgive me Your grip is slipping Please just let me win I don't want to let go I'll keep you here underground You'll never see the surface Ah ah Ah ah A stalemate that I created I don't deserve your mercy Ah ah Ah ah I'll string you up Thread and Stuffing Vines intertwine Through your fingers down your spine Marionette I'll be your tour guide Entangled with saccharine lies Struggle I'll break you Asphyxiate your determination I can't understand it You won't forgive me Your grip is slipping Please just let me win I don't want to Run away or satiate My curiosity Why can't I be okay with just one real heart beat My arms and legs are missing I cannot find my soul I'm nothing but a vessel that can never grow up So I'll hold you 私のぬいぐるみ / watashi no nuigurumi Lost souls Add to my menagerie prescription daily dose of Adrenaline Warms my blood hardens my skeleton Yes I bite Mouth full of thorns for teeth Sparing me Only keeps me smiling Play my game One you'll never want to quit Don't love me I'll leave you in stitches Stitches, stitches, stitches, sti-i-itai Stitches, stitches, stitches, sti-i-itai I'll keep you here underground You'll never see the surface Ah ah Ah ah a stalemate that I created I don't deserve your mercy Ah ah Ah ah Please stay with me underground we'll never need the surface Ah ah Ah ah Won't you just please let me win Why do you give me mercy Stop it stop it stop it I'll come back you know I'll come back for your soul Do you really think I've learned anything I'll take everything you love Turn it to dust Why are you being so nice to me I know that you're not the same You're better than them For you I'll pretend to be human No I'm not ready To say goodbye to someone like you again

Ink Beach 04:56
Oh creamer queen, I'll intervene, invade your privacy Sort through it all, till curtain call, shout down your dynasty But all these thoughts, these clockwork chords, pull at my tendons Oh puppeteer, please set me down, restore my agency But I'll never be like her (Expectations) But I'll never be a god (Like megatons) But I'll never find all those extremes (Strapped to your toes) that you are, I'll never be enough But I'll never be like her (Expectations) But I'll never be a god (Like megatons) But I'll never find all those extremes (Strapped to your toes) that you are, I'll never be enough But won't you quarter my atrium (Just take it all) But won't you take up these ventricles (Don't be so cold) But won't you liquify and fill me up to the brim, make me right again But won't you quarter my atrium (Just take it all) But won't you take up these ventricles (Don't be so cold) But won't you liquify and fill me up to the brim, make me right again Chilled by your absence But I'm slowly imploding, but I'm crushing in Can't you support me? Contort me, twist me up till- Warmed by this abscess But it's bubbling up, but now it's primed to burst isn't it gorgeous Engorge us, fill me up till- Chilled by your absence But I'm slowly imploding, but I'm crushing in Can't you support me? Contort me, twist me up till- Warmed by this abscess But it's bubbling up, but now it's primed to burst isn't it gorgeous Engorge us, fill me up till- Gorge us, fill me up till- Gorge us, fill me up till- Bright milky claws Great star filled maw Heavenly beauty But who could ever be Something so obscene So black and brooding Great lonely God Miserable visage Unmarred perfection But you're all I've got, but I'm far too small But I'll never measure up 将来の中で 幸せになりたい 笑、笑, おねがいします あなたはすばらしい 私が悪ですね それでも愛して (shourai no naka de, shiawase ni naritai Warae, warae, onegaishimasu Anata wa subarashii Watashi ga warui desu ne) Ribbons imprison me Seized by capricious strings Help me extend my reach Eventually it Falls short Shadowed by deities Quiet calamities Slowly but surely My gait takes me Forward Gravity Oh, oh Twisting me Up up Ubiquitously Drowning the sky in the sea But at least at this rate You fall closer to me Oh, oh, oh Lukewarm toxins pop in clogged vessels but it's all I need Fill me up till Chilled by your absence But I'm slowly imploding, but I'm crushing in Can't you support me? Contort me, twist me up till- Warmed by this abscess But it's bubbling up, but now it's primed to burst isn't it gorgeous Engorge us, fill me up till- Chilled by your absence But I'm slowly imploding, but I'm crushing in Can't you support me? Contort me, twist me up till- Warmed by this abscess But it's bubbling up, but now it's primed to burst isn't it gorgeous Engorge us, fill me up till- Gorge us, fill me up till- Gorge us, fill me up till-
