Airtight 01:53
Everyone is bitter Everyone feels sick We consume all that's left Shortsighted minds push us out into the tide If an airtight alibi is my solution If an airtight alibi is my solution I'm done If this is where we're gonna go That's not what's right with me If this is what we're gonna lean on That's not what's right with me If this is where we're gonna go That's not what's right with me If this is what we're gonna lean on That's not what's right with me If an airtight alibi is my solution If an airtight alibi is my solution I'm done That's not what's right with me That's not what's right with you

No Space 01:57
Hard feelings Take them Choke them down Hard feelings Take them Choke them down again No space for the underground Nothing left to turn around Always been in bad condition What's your question? I like this place burnt down Put an end to it and burn it down Put an end to it and burn it No time left to talk Good answers never came easy It takes some effort To pass it on What's your question? I like this place burnt down No space for the underground No love for the underground Not sure what to do without this life spent underground

Bullet 01:27
Don't look down Ignore what's underneath you Never look down Someone's happy, someone's sad Don't kill it Don't you dare do it Don't let it fade out Everybody says Don't let this life pass you by now The spark burns, it's alive It stays here, it's on fire Once you jump, head first In the unknown or what's worse You dive in, swim deep Breathe in, no sleep What you believe was never there And all we know it's never fair Why would you take a bullet? Why would you take a bullet for it? Why would you take a bullet? Why would you take a bullet? Why would you take a bullet?

Ends Meet 03:04
Long day No grief Just glad that I know how to make ends meet Degrading So close To reject the belief I can make it on my own So brash Presuming To expect everyone to excel at the same thing You're taken aback Not everyone is driven by the same four letters Start working on what's yours No one else can give you what you crave the most Start ditching what's right If it works out, great, if it doesn't, fine A while ago I talked to a man And he said: hey boy, I like your work but you need to understand There's no value in what you do Self-expression isn't something to be sold Start working on what's yours No one else can give you what you want the most Start ditching what's right If it works out, great, if it doesn't, fine

If you still don't get why you're alive You won't get it until you die Periodical gut punch Is your steady reward If you don't get why it's all on fire Ask questions until you're burned alive Periodical gut punch Take another one in the jaw Oh, it won't stop, it gets worse with time You're alright, you're still moving If you went along a different path You're alright, you're still moving If you still have means for self-reflection You're alright, you're still moving If you're biased towards considered action You're alright, a cog in the machine If we work hard Show up With enough time and enough thought We still won't make a difference Collectively If we work tirelessly Suck it up With enough funds and enough talent We still remain unfocussed And fully miss the point If we keep reading the same texts No meaning, no impact We still won't make a difference Continue our decline If we're being drawn to the same jobs False incentives, poor outcomes We still won't make a difference We set the wrong goals If we just like posts and sing songs No actions, no results We won't ever make a difference We'll collectively decline
