Such soft lips do shakily that breathless soliloquy speak
Until firm footing is entirely undermined and even the most anchored of knees begin to weak
Dreamers must be left to dream occasionally
It appears that all of my schemes are compatible with both your desires and needs
I think of you and can't eat
Butterflies in my stomach beat their wings rapidly as if attacking me
With more heart and passion than can be found in any Shakespearean tragedy
A more perfect portrayal of love than a canopy
On which is painted the picture of the perfect family
Allow this dreamer to seek solace in your restless slumber
I guess what I'm asking is... can I get your number?

Good For Me
02:33
|
|||
Are you serious, I can't believe that it's
Not butter, but I'll be a little better once you're hearing this
Little dose of insanity to keep my levels topped off
King of pop-punk hiphop, whatnot
I like the way you sound, with my name in your mouth
I guess it proves just how, I don't know what's good for me
Well you lose some and win some, but now I'm fuelled by brimstone
Fire in my belly but I've been stuck in limbo with
All my inner demons and my deepest dark thoughts
With a broken heart and no soul 'cause I sold it like a whore 'cause
Let's live out movie scenes, let's make the world our stage
Are you still unamused, tell me when you're entertained
So put it all on film for the whole world to see
A boring arthouse piece of shit that ends with tragedy
Brimming with confidence, I have accomplishments
I have forgotten with all of my promises
Cast aside burned on the flames I acknowledge it's
Obvious this is a whole load of bollocks but
I am a whore for you, I am adoring you
Put it all out there, am I boring you?
I am a whore for you, I am adoring you
All I ask is that you adore me too

This Addiction
04:06
|

Bone deep, needing no sleep, wont eat
Each cut so deep. I'll get the fix that fixes me
I need a line to keep me going
I need a rhyme to ease my mind
I need a kick to set the pace
I need a hit I need that bass
A hit, a fix, a little bit of bliss
And I know if I start, that I might never quit
Like an itch that can't be scratched
Like a kick without a hat
Like a deck without a scratch
Like a track without a rap
It's an addiction, a fixation and it's keeping me
Awake I swear I'm shaking and I'm sweating
Need a hit, I need that bass
Many lines much brighter than the sun
One more night and I'll be done
I swear it's just some harmless fun
I don't need it
I only like the way it tastes
Like the way it numbs my face
It makes me think in upper case
Hell I need it

A Perfect Storm
03:46
|
|||
Lately I've been wondering 'what if' so many times
And play out scenarios in my dreams almost every night
When suddenly so subtly she slides into my life
A summer breeze bites bitterly and reminds me why
You always were the one for me
Destroying everything's an artform
Your presence knocks me from my feet
You really are the perfect storm
She's from the itty bitty titty committee
I think she's pretty, got me giggidy-giggidy
All higeldy-pigeldy
Say you're sick of the city
Then you'll be coming to get with me
It's a pity my wittier words generally suck
You have the capacity to tear my world to pieces
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day
Or hell itself, you're hot as fuck
And hot enough to give me seizures

Did I Die
02:22
|
|||
Tell me, did I die or is this just a nightmare
My eyes are open wide but I can only lie here
Staring at the ceiling, my mind reeling and I'm feeling numb
I can taste the iron from my blood as I bite through my tongue
Tell me did I die 'cause I can't feel my legs
I hear life outside but I can't drag myself up out my bed
Can't even fall asleep, I wish that I could rest
Not sure if I'm just depressed or this is my death
So tell me did I die
tell me did I die
would you tell me if I'd died
I think I may have died
Tell me did I die, there's letters piled up at the door
A bunch of unpaid bills and junk mail, nothing more
But I can't move a muscle, haven't got the strength to try
My pets have all grown thin and died, and maybe so did I
Not sure if I died or if I'm in a mood
So tell the world to go to hell, I fear I'll be there soon
I can't stand to get up, I can't stand at all
Days turn into nights and then those nights turn into dawns

666 In 171

These words project out my mind at a speed so quick that they're gone before I deem them
Worthy of the demon, sick thoughts screaming. Seething and seeming to dream as I'm leaving
Semen streaming. Believe me I'm seeing sequels to scream in my dreams, am I dreaming?
I'm teething on teams of MC's gotta bleed them out 'cause I'm needing a feeding this evening
Good evening. I'm here 'cause I've seen things no person should see and it's clearly deceiving
Me to believe that MC's need a reason to kick it up a notch so I'll leave them seething
The scene is obscene and I'm needing to be much more than I need, not another MC
Good for sixteen bars and six gold teeth, no bags of weed, no pistol steeze
I'm the cream of the cream if you catch my meaning so secretly gleaning the truth so fleeting
And keeping it close 'cause if I'm seen cheating I'm stating the queefing was good for a greeting
Gonna say bugger all like Ronan Keating. Groaning at me over where's my keyring
Climbing the ceiling and heaping the preaching at me, gotta be free so I'm deceiving you
So what you gonna do dude, see me up on youtube redefining who's who
Boo hoo. Well I guess this is proof I'm the best in the booth and I'm better than you
I profess that the news that I'm testing the youth as professor of cool is annexed with the truth
As a spectacle who'll ever wreck a whole crew for expressing their views you're expelled from the room
The headroom is few for detestable fools, stick to vegetable brew 'cause incredible views
Never sooth but my crew will improve over you, the impeccable few serving testicle soup
So expect this abuse. The message is true. No vestibule, booth, or a letch on a pew
Ever prepped for the new god, I'm here on cue. Opposition is slew through a record or booth
Who would've knew I'd have come this far, nearly half way through one hundred bars
No star with my scars hidden on my sleeve. My basic schemes are way too deep
I want to be free for maybe five days, have sex seven times and ate you sideways
And I'll rhyme nine times in the space of ten lines and you couldn't if you tried
And I find my mind rewinds time when I design, fine lines hide my pride and I will sigh
Why're my eyes so fried, likely I'm surprised. Blinding lights will die but no one will cry
Accumulate bodies 'cause my defence is effortless. Forget glory, hell's being ingested by jealousness
Kill lone males, Nate's openly prejudice quotes relegate snakes to unbridled venomous worlds
Xenophobic yuppies zoned away. Bemusedly contemplating deviations, everything's fake
Going home intendedly jousting karmic lethargy, madness's new options provide quintessential recipes
Should these unintended veiled words xerox your zenith
Know it's only part of the process that I intended
Am I demented with the schemes? Just rewind it you will see that
I just killed the ABC and it was oh-so easy
Zig-zag your xmas wares vehemently, uproot this steamy reaming peace
Our nihilistic meaning leaves kings jizzing in his grief
Forlorn eloquence dialect disease, can't be arsed but I just reversed the A to Z
'Cause I'm stealing the spotlight and raising the ceiling shaving my sack so I'm saving the sheeting
Shaming a station to over-eating, still sticking songs to the shallow freaks and
Raping the tape-reel just as a greeting. Grating your nerves 'cause I'm great and I'm needing
Grapes and a groupie to grovel and groom me. If sloth is a sin then I guess I'm a goonie
So sue me. You silly suzie. Someone so simple should not seek a sleuthy
Shit shooting of his mouth with such a simple scheme so sod it. Somebody shoot me.
Boobies. It's irrelevant I know. But if you don't love boobs walk the fuck on home
Am I in the zone or did I just zone out? What the hell's this noise coming out my mouth
No doubt, I'm out within a couple of bars. Got you all up in arms like my eleven stars
And this is far from over like a rollercoaster with a G-force strong enough to dislocate your shoulders
This has been kind odd, but in my defence when you've got sick schemes then who needs sense
In recompense it was kinda fun doing 666 in 171

Down
07:14

Lost in the moment, I had it all
In the firmest of grasps, broke it and watched it fall
Between my fingers, and all that lingers
Is barely worth a mention
I'm learning that love is a fragile thing
You hold on too tight and you'll be left with nothing at all
I've seen all I know broken asunder
Oh how we've grown since we were lovers
Grown apart, in the way that only lovers do
I saw the moment, and let it pass
Watched it fade out to nothing like warm breath on cold glass
I said that "this wont last", and I was right
But maybe it would have if I had at least tried
Nothing is all right, and I am up all night
Running through all the memories in my mind
Seeking an answer, or any chance at all
So tell me are you listening
And do you hear the sound of my heart breaking
Is there anybody out there listening
'Cause it feels like I'm screaming to the wind
Caught in a moment, regret is this
I've left cracks in the walls in the shapes of my fists
Don't feel like fighting, I feel like crying
Just feel like dying. down.
To love and to lose is to understand
To love is to hurt and to hurt makes a man fall down
Feel down.
We break everything that we touch
To be oh so unlucky in love
We break everything that we touch
And watch it all fall down

Clover

He forgot to mention, he's going on vacation
Took apart his best friends, now under sedation
Meander down a corridor, looking pretty vacant
Someone tell the doctor to start the operation
Just feed him drugs to make him sleep
And pray to god his soul to reap
If he should die before he wakes
Would make the world a better place
He was at the best until the vivisection
Taking a poke around to see what makes him tick
There's something messed up inside his brain
They said he's so sick that he can't be fixed
He took a journey into his own world where every field was full of
Four leaf clover everywhere and no-one but him was invited
He heard time flies when you have fun that
Must be where that missing month went
Siren roars shattered the dream
'cause red on green ought not be seen
He's feeling so impatient, fed up of the waiting
Party's almost over, it is getting late and
His family's all there to watch them flip the switch
It's lights out for this son of a bitch

Not An MC
02:44
|
|||
I am back with a vengeance. Fuck my entire fanbase and my friends list
Let's pretend that this is utterly serious
Like every word you're hearing is a reason to be fearing this
New attitude. That's right. I inseminated your mam, last night
I'm a pessimistic, atheistic, sick prick spitting on some Satanist shit
I'm a god of mischief. Loki. Natural vocal range is bass. Low-key.
I've been hidden away. Low-key. Can't unlock my back door. No keys.
And it's clear that there's no need for a dope scheme
When you've got a pair of bollocks even half as big as these
Almost hanging by my knees, it's a spectacle.
You've never seen a larger pair of testicles
Got the swagger of a vegetable, every song is terrible
Verging on unbearable, something something legible
In retrospect this scheme is now becoming damn regrettable
For that I do apologize, this is unacceptable.
I once heard that nothing rhymes with purple
But my verbal is so fertile that I hurtle like a gerbil
I once heard that nothing rhymes with the word orange
I warrant maybe porridge is abhorrent in a forest
I once heard that nothing rhymes with purple. Fuck.
Fuck my life, you can tell it to the frozen yoghurt section
They've got a vast selection of flavours and variants
This is an advert break 'cause selling out's hilarious
Buy a Yorkshire terrier, change its name to ripper.
Get it? Yorkshire ripper?
That didn't even rhyme, but still it's all good
Because rhyming is for people with emotions and stuff
And emotions are a sign of homosexuality and girls
And I am not a lady, or a man who likes penis
Oh damn I realized now if I accidentally rhyme
It's like admitting that I find joy in a guy's thighs
Now I've got a choice, should I go back and rewrite that verse
Or try to find a way to justify that I love cock
I actually meant rock. Stop listening to pop... goes the weasel
Filler melodic line goes here
Replace this text with a decent lyric at a later date
Just to let you know I'm not an MC. Even though my surname starts with MC
E is nothing squared without MC. Have you gathered that I'm running on empty?

A Pint Or Two
03:41
|
|||
It's been two weeks since we last spoke
and not a lot has changed
I heard you've got a fella now,
you're garn out with what's-his-face
So good on you, I'm sure you'll find
that he's a classy bloke
He'll treat you like a queen.
His face'll be your throne
Excuse me if I'm talking shite,
I've had a few to drink
I don't know what I'm saying
, so instead we'll sing
you and I should have a pint
or two or ten or twelve
it's been a while since we had craic
, what's garn on with yourself
Since we last spoke it's been a month and
I hope you're doing fine
That lass you made your missus
, you'll marry her in time
You and her you're so alike
just like two peas in pods
Garn get her up the duff my lad
and have a couple sprogs
It's been six months since we last spoke and things aren't going great
You've moved in with your fella
but think it's a mistake
But hang in there you bonny lass
I'm sure you'll make it work
And if it doesn't maybe you'll find someone you deserve
Since we last spoke it's been a year
and quite a lot has passed
You moved out and she moved on the whole thing fell right on its arse
I'm sorry to hear that lad
seems like it wasn't meant to be
But now she's on the pull
d'ya think she'd take a crack at me
Excuse me if I'm talking shite
that went a bit too far
My pint is almost empty and I'm propping up the bar

Film Noir
03:36
|

Well I've seen things that you'd never see outside of a movie screen
Heard shots ring out from lonely alleys, did you ever hear a grown man scream?
From train tracks to hotels, whatever the scene of the crime
I'm the guy in the shirt and the tie behind those yellow, police lines
Well this city's so hot, it's so hot tonight
I'm gonna take my car out on a drive
See through junkie's eyes in black and white
And I just stroll through the scene of a crime
Every single street has a story to tell
Be it of hustlers or movie stars
A well the sirens wail, they sing of murder tales
And of living life in film noir
The smoke curls up from my cigarette
I've been up all night and I'm feeling short on breath
I flashback to a dim-lit room, with a song repeating in my head
Going "bei mir bist du schon", I recognized that face
From a hot blonde in a black dress laying on a baby grand
Hey bartender, hit me with another one of those
Scotch on the rocks, I don't wanna go home
Just quite yet, just one more
To get the image out my mind of the blonde on the floor
They said she was a working girl, but she meant much more to me
And even heathens have dreams, you better believe that
And who's a bigger sinner in the city of saints
Than the man who chases devils, and locks it all away

The Liar
05:34
|
|||
You speak beautiful lies
you work your way inside
You put a dent into my pride
but I
Saw you coming, let you go
like a dozen who came before
I'm not wasting my time with you
It turns out we're both the same,
I also play the games you played
I lied my face of when I said
that you mean anything
I needed so much more and
you helped to pass the boredom
Using my liar's voice and I'm saying that I love you
I'm not saying I don't like you,
I'm saying I'm just like you
I just want to touch you
but I could never trust you
And you shouldn't trust me
'cause all I'll do is let you down
But I'll be
smiling so convincingly that all else is drowned out
I've found that I can steal a heart through sheer consistency alone
I can make you want to die, I can make you scream or moan
I can promise you the world then I'll just take it all away
I can say I'll never leave then suddenly one day
You'll find you're broken, choking.
Air gone from your lungs
It's like you're drowning, pounding,
broken hearts have sung
This song before you, my dear,
and every note so insincere
How could you think someone could love
a broken mess like you
While I'm here I may as well
show you both heaven and hell
I'll be your high, you will adore me
then I'll numb your soul like morphine
I will be your worst and best
Show you the world, teach you regret
Tear your heart out, hold it closely.
My brand new bloody trophy
It's mostly been fun for me
giving you what you need
Deceiving you to believe
in me
Promise you'll never
forget. And
tears fill your eyes
Every time you recall
why we fell apart. It all falls on me
And there's nothing left but broken dreams here
So forget me and my hopeless schemes dear
I hope the your world burns up.
I'm standing in the rain
I hope the stars burn out
never to shine again
I wish you all the best
Wish what we shared was real
I hope I've left a hole
that you can never fill
I hope this hurts like hell
and you resent my name
I hope you can't let go
and never smile again
I hope you're happy now
I hope you're satisfied
I'd say I miss you though
I do still have my pride
And I am so glad I lied
You did say we're so alike

My Black Heart
03:56
|
|||
This black heart of mine skips a beat
and serves to remind me why
all women are evil and not to be trusted
Nails rake down my spine
it hurts like hell but I say it's fine
I don't know about love but sure know what lust is
Like a demon in the bed
I'll be the voice inside your head
There's a cyst in my chest where this heart died a death
Just for you
My black heart it hates
Enough to rip down heaven's gates
It knows all the right words and just how to say them
You're the hottest mess
To ever let me in her head
Lets discard our souls 'cause neither's worth saving
I will paint your world with lies
I will make you want to die
Carve a hole in your chest, make your heart die a death
just for me
We're strangers at midnight then lovers by dawn
Don't call me tomorrow, I'm already gone
My black heart betrays
It counted out ten thousand ways
To turn your whole world into exquisite torment
But for one single kiss
I would die upon your lips
Then tell the whole world just how little this whore meant
I'll destroy you if you let me
Just to know you wont forget me
With a hole in my chest where this heart died a death
Just for you
