Culthead 04:47
Fell from a time when things were mine And no one, and no one could take that away With what they say, or what they do And they'll never, they'll never show it to you take a seat, I've never seen your tie so neat Self-esteem is hard to beat So tell me everything is fine Tell me everything is going to be all right Although I know that that's not true Please, help me feel removed Cut from a cloth too warm and soft To ever, to ever feel tough enough But that is fine, the pleasure's all mine And I will, and I will stop you hopping the line But not for free, because you don't own me A selfless person it's hard to be So tell me something new Tell me something I can fucking use this time Although it may not help me Please, I'm willing to wait and see Conditions of the lonely night That made me rack my brain I come of as something else that's playing being tame Half of me feels every little stone beneath my feet Half of me is the kindest sociopath you'll ever meet Sometimes I feel everything It's a technical insight Sometimes I feel number than a killer taking life And I will ride this wave of apathy till the end of the day I'm a culthead, bedhead, time-waster with nothing left to say

Miss Everyday steps out of her house To breathe the first act of today The first one after a long night indulgence Thinking about quitting again, again Again with the dull stab in her thinking tissues That ache of cliché'd decay And tortures the voice that she used to think in When something was learnt everyday Everyday Everyday She marched down the street in a hurry, so worried Cause she slept through her alarm again Passed the working class castles made of terrace bricks Built from the industrial dead Flashbacks of bright lights from a depraved night Flash faster than her skin can shed And as she carries herself forward All that exists is them Exists is them Exists is them As she walked through the dance floor of pedestrians pestering The monkey on her back She'd eaten her brain and continued to digest Every thought she ever had Till the place started shaking Cracking and breaking People were screaming and trying to leave As the dance floor collapsed down Into the basement That curb came from somewhere Lucid and sobering Everyday, we fill space Everyday, we fill space

Inside a plastic ravine Outside of anywhere A boy who's tangled in manhood So raw and unprepared Not enough space in the box That he was grown in And he's never said I love you For the first time sober His face is like finding a box of his photographs Made to remember like the names on the Cenotaph Taint was taut on her tongue, spring loaded barbed and primed Bitter like the taste of stodgy porridge or pickled brine Or a place stripped of industry and not replaced And her mood was captured by the brutal architecture of this place Her face is like finding a box of her photographs Made to remember like the names on the Cenotaph

Hello everybody, Mr. Credible is here Please hold me in high regard but I am not what I appear I like feeling all superior, even though it isn't true Sometimes I spout about what I don't believe just to get a rise out from you I earn the trust of others but you're all just a means to an end I'm irresponsible and selfish and I lie to all of my friends I'm a walking contradiction I don't practice what I preach I wrap myself in morals but won't do a thing about them Cause I don't have the drive to care if it doesn't help me I don't care about my health enough I'm far too lazy for relief My mouth is rotting slowly It feels broken, it feels dirty I spit blood when I brush my teeth I'm too lazy for relief I'm a calculated mixture of a nice guy and a prick Cause being liked it more important, being honest makes me sick So I'll fabricate my image, to shy away from who I am I bare my teeth and smile and resent you where I stand Cause God forbid you missed the kid with the eyelids lathered thick from the haze of the plant in my hand I don't care about my health enough I'm far too lazy for relief My mouth is rotting slowly It feels broken, it feels dirty I spit blood when I brush my teeth I'm too lazy for relief
