First things first: take a shot, get your courage up To show em all what youre made of Then let em know that you’ve had enough Lets end the night before it even starts Take a shot, take another shot Getting lost in the carnal buzz Forget where you left yourself Unclipped from the belt Unhinged Unwarranted Unmitigated You’ll grow to hate it.. take a shot, take another shot, take a shot take a shot, take another shot, take a shot shoot a shot, take another shot, shoot your shot shoot your shot, take a shot, shoot another

Shot in the chest by a six year old kid Failed by the system that swore to protect Under-appreciation And negligence It led to this What’s a fucking life worth? Reputation? Now it’s dragged in the mud Image? Now it’s covered in blood Listen To the cry of a nation: Lock up your kids if you can’t lock up your weapons

All your life is but a screen within a screen You influence no one Especially me Because you haven’t said a fucking thing Your face Captured Embrace Daughter Use her To make You go Viral Keep the Camera Always Rolling Aware It’s there Still con- Trolling More machine than man Feeding the machine Take what you can get Sell your body for a check DIGITAL PROSTITUTION THE NEXT PLIGHT OF A GENERATION Miss Manners missing the matter at hand As a matter of fact: your facts are opinion Billing yourself as God Digital prostitution Billing yourself as God Digital prostitution

I am disease I am cancer I am the widowmaker I wish the needle would’ve skipped That blessed stretch of skin between your shoulder and wrist But it didn’t You’ve got the grooves to prove it It’s recorded evidence Played loudly for the audience so full of disappointment (Calling for an extended set list) I am loss Without an answer I am the widowmaker I know just what you want me to be A cowcatcher to find some relief Push all of your problems away So you don’t have to feel a thing But I am the engine that burns And I am the steel of the tracks The wheels that cut through time You use me but I break your back Lifting such a burden More fuel for the fire Consequence a warning Bending to get higher I am addiction As clean as ever I am the widowmaker I am steel And the powder I am the gun I am anger I am the widowmaker I am the widowmaker I am the widowmaker

You’re not my maker You’re not my maker You’re not my maker I’m not scared of your empty threats And I won’t be fooled by your empty promises You may say you’re as good as it gets But I’m not hearing it You’re not my maker You’re not my maker We can lock horns anytime you want motherfucker I won’t be fed any more of your shit And I know you think you’re slick with your six six six You’ve got strength, that I’ll have to admit But you’re a coward so devour your tail, you serpent You’re not my maker You’re not my maker You’re not my maker You’re not my maker You’re not my maker You’re not my maker We can lock horns Form the synapses Don’t fall on your sword!

Here we lie in a series of fragmented accidents And you, lonely peon of human existence Can manifest order out of chaos? Unbelievable You’re as deific as I once was: ineffectual This is the grandest illusion Man thinking he is God Your vibes are powerless Your best life is selfish Uncertainty is certainly terrifying But if you think you’re in control you’re lying You’re lying I can’t stand the arrogance Take yourself off your stage

It’s okay Never wanted your friendship anyway Burn the fucking bridges to the frames A reminder when you cross the James Rivers only flow one way A reminder when you cross the James Rivers only flow one way But you still can’t swim We used to say we were kin Drowning in memories again When I left there was no line in the sand I can’t blame you But damn I wish I could When you post about life post-me After the flames After the flames After the flames I guess after the flames only posts will remain It’s okay Never wanted your friendship anyway Burn the fucking bridges to the frames A reminder when you cross the James Rivers only flow one way A reminder when you cross the James Rivers only flow one way So burn the fucking bridges to the frames After the flames, only posts will remain Burn the bridges to the frames Only posts will remain

Be a man wear a dress get a record deal Be a woman shave your head garner mass appeal Go from pop to goth get an interview Not a legacy act? Don’t let the door hit you Maybe more would listen if I took a picture of myself Wearing a mask or slathered in black and white makeup Maybe more would care if I promoted woke niceties Apathetic to your petty need for celebrity Worship false gods Worship false kings Worship false queens Don’t believe, don’t believe Worship false gods They don’t know you Worship false kings They want your money Worship false queens They want your demise Don’t believe That they want you all to rise GO “Fuck the gatekeepers” But you still hold the keys just out of arms’ reach Wear some spikes around your neck you fucking rockstar Pay the people just right you’ll get a platform Talk about your childhood gain some sympathy On the fast-track for some cash, for celebrity Worship false gods They don’t know you Worship false kings They want your money Worship false queens They want your demise Don’t believe That they want you all to rise Your applause comes cheap and from a far distance away

I feel like the stray cat Ripping its way through my garbage Flipping the black plastic cap Off the trashcan out back I know there’s maggots at the bottom I belong to someone else so i don’t need this Yet i keep digging deeper into Whatever i can sink my teeth in It’s foul It’s putrid In fact the act makes me sick to my stomach A swan dive into filth for base-sick nutrients I get fed daily yet here i am So greedy i’m feeding on secondhand That’s been sitting here since God-knows when I wear the crumbs around my throat as a talisman Deeper, my body feels covered in it I know it’ll take more than a dozen licks To get my hair back in all the right places Enough to feign feral innocence I hear a car pull into the driveway And i scramble out not a second too late I hop the fence and leave through the gate With my limp tail drooping between my legs
