Mistakes 02:14
I'm gonna die, that's not the problem I'm gonna be alive for a long time Realized life is a chemical reaction to disguise it's the end times Don't fear the grave, don't be its slave Bury your shame, no one's to blame We're all the same Face the pain, it won't be easy and you'll never be the same or forgiven Pay the price, every ounce of blood you have will not suffice, still gotta give it 'Cuz some mistakes can't be erased They're here to stay and murder your faith That anything will be OK Lies for a lifetime, an empty seat for the soul Letting go means losing all control So forget my name, forget my face Forget I came, whatever it takes 'Cuz we can't make love that doesn't break We're all the same, we're all mistakes

We fucked up, in too deep and sinking fast Arms thrashing, life flashing Drink the ocean, drown the past Nothing left to do but look back and smile The last dying wave of a drowning child Some bridges burn, in due time all are washed away Can't put the pieces back together, let chaos have its way Nothing left to lose, so look back and smile Last dying wave of a drowning child It's on the shore, it's in the house It's everywhere, it's in my mouth It's in my lungs, it's in my veins It's in my heart, it's in my brain High tide is here to reconcile Nothing left to do but look back and smile The last dying wave of a drowning child

Shark Food 02:40
We're in the deep, under a dark as black as sleep But I can see a ship of fools is moored to me Salt in my smile, too much to drink for you Going overboard is all that we'd ever do I'm not jumping after, I'm not drowning too Sink or swim or shark food, we're through The tide is high, I'm moving on, you're gonna die I hear you cry, but I won't watch or wave goodbye Drops in oceans, anchors with chains cut free Bloated floating corpses is all that we'd ever be I wish I could save you, but now you are food Sink or swim we're already screwed Can't see the sky, can't feel the ground They smell your blood and circle round We're going down, we're going down Sharks by your side, we never learned how to swim How am I gonna save you when I'd die by diving in? I'm not jumping after, I'm not drowning too Sink or swim or shark food we're through Sink or swim or shark food fuck you Save me

Tsunami 02:25
Staring up at the sea At the wave that's about to crash down on me At the end of all hope and all memory At the last gasp of air that I'll ever breathe Tsunami The waves will break our fate High tide, can't run, too late Seeds of life from the sea gotta return eventually Tsunami I'll go with the flow even though the sea doesn't have mercy to show Inside of the tide it's the end of the ride, open wide, here we go Mile high wall of water I'll meet the horizon's demise on the beach, I'll feed sea creatures now Seeds of life from the sea gotta return eventually

Washed Away 03:13
Death gives no quarter, hope has no home Cling to each other and die alone Dead generations, a pile of souls Reach for the heavens end up in holes How deep do they go? Only one way to know... We'll all be washed far away, far down the drain What was it for? For today. Feel the pain. Love is friction so make a friend Life is fiction until the end It just gets harder, that much is true How much that matters is up to you How deep is your doubt? You're about to find out... We'll all be washed far away, far down the drain What was it for? For today. Take the blame. We're making it harder than it really needs to be Ego's fucking up what's left of our humanity We'll all be washed far away, far down the drain What was it for? For today. Feel the pain.

It's far too late to turn our fate around I'm heading for the hills, at least I'll die on higher ground Chaos is embracing a past that needs erasing We saw it coming, there's no running, death is what we're facing It's in the atmosphere and it's coming down Rising fast like fear 'til we disappear Too late to learn how to swim, learn how to drown In time we'll all be living by the shore When the oceans rise our paradises won't be anymore It's time that we accept it We fucked it up and wrecked it The planet won't need saving when we're heading out the door It's in the atmosphere and it's coming down Rising fast like fear 'til we disappear Too late to learn how to swim, learn how to drown Learn to drown

Comes a time when we all gotta drown Hit the bottom to find our way out Pay the ultimate price for a flash before our eyes We're adrift in a ocean of shame Gotta learn how to swallow the pain Of a life that remains It's a flash before our eyes Holding on to the fear In this moment your life disappears The end isn't near It's here We're going where no one has been No choice but suit up and dive in With lifejackets untied for the flash before your eyes Stop holding on to your skin As if there was meaning within Where the hell have you been for the flash before your eyes? You and I are the same We've been playing our lives like a game Trying to level up names Until memory fades Hold my head under Make me beg to breathe Tear me asunder in this life that is dying despite all that's trying in me We're going where no one has been No choice but suit up and dive in With lifejackets untied for the flash before your eyes Stop holding on to your skin As if there was meaning within Where the hell have you been for the flash before your eyes? Holding on to the fear In this moment your life disappears The end isn't near It's here

Blindfolded, sword at my back I see where this is going and I’m not coming back Mutiny, I’m guilty, my future sank, gotta walk the plank The water’s freezing, my body’s numb My heart ain’t beating, my soul succumbs Mutiny, I’m guilty My future sank, gotta walk the plank We wanted more you gave us less Captain held captive, this is your mess You’re gonna die, please tell us why, and we all are watching Adrift at sea there is no shore We need to feed, there is no more Accountable and hateable, you fucking scoundrel I hear the sirens call, I climb their caterwaul I load the cannonball, I scream the battle call Mutiny, who’s with me? Their stares were blank, gotta walk the plank (chorus) Now you can decide, you die by the sword or you walk the board Now you must decide, you die by the board or we skin your hide I’ll walk the plank

Let’s begin by putting on our birthday suits Adam, Eve and snake partaking in the fruit Now we’re destined both to go Where we come from what we know Sex and death are absolute You’re cute We’re all naked in the end We’re all naked in the end Show you mine, show me yours We’re two zeroes on all fours We’re all naked in the end And now our bodies are alive, no longer numb Your every breath whispers the little deaths to come And though it takes you by surprise There is no end to prophesize Our work of flesh is never done What fun We’re all naked in the end We’re all naked in the end Wanna fuck until we die? Til the reaper comes inside We’re all naked in the end

Life is the end, death is the beginning Gotta lose it all to make it all worth living The past is a trap, the future is where we go to die It's now, look it in the eye Silence as our bodies crash into the sound Comes a time when we all have to drown The heart is a hardship, it shoulders the soul The mind sees what the eyes believe It tells me I'm in control, but the eye is a hole But the "I" is a whole But the "I" is a hole
