Shanty Town 04:34
Up and down the shanty town that you've become there's nothing to be found I rock'n'roll I twist and shout I scream out loud I don't make any sound I love myself like no one else but not enough it's just a little crush as such Such a shame you're not to blame it's not your fault I know you feel the same Up and down the shanty town that you've become no happiness no pain If only we could stop the rain and wipe away the dust then we could build this town again

Sore 03:17
Here we go Heaven sent an angel just to let me know Let me feel what blooming flowers feel when they fuck the concrete on the pavement Here I stand Here I make my way between the slobs Here I make my way to face the sun Riding on the shivers of my laser gun For all I know I've seen it all it happened here before When all the angels came down to the land falling down from heaven to their promised land Sore Feeling like I've never felt before here I make my way to face the sun Riding on the shivers of my laser gun Sore here I make my way to feel myself once more Sore once again tonight I'll kill myself once more

Just a Song 05:30
Right or wrong this is just my song Like you it comes too fast and then it's gone It crawls the floor it drips down from the walls It spreads between your sheets as night time falls on you It sneaks into your ribcage It sits upon your heart it tears your little silly dreams apart I hope it keeps you awake at night I hope it holds you tight I hope it hits you right between your eyes I know it's wrong but this is just my song
4.
Bug's eyes through the curtain smoke lay down on your skin Sudden irritation strikes turns me into cream I don't want it I talk to the wall and find it quite opinionated Break down in the loo only to wake up castrated I don't want it Bug's eyes roll out of control as she locks me in a vice Then she kicks me out of the door I can hear her as she cries I don't want it
5.
Check out the calories low-fat catharsis for your skin Adrift in no-man's land insect- o-cutor laser beam Just when you think there's no more sins You stand the trial and sing The sound is bouncing back at you A look can pierce your soul But there is no more soul to bleed Just when you think there's no more sins
6.
Little silly things brand new toys to play with Office blocks-leather pussies- iron cocks With a taste for little silly things tomorrow may bring you Brand new tunes fields of video-screens in bloom Or maybe some new creed to feed Idols to worship and then kill in good faith

Diverging 04:27
Window sills and curtains speak my language Keep me safe protect me from the seasons Ordinary oblivions extraordinary boredoms Parallel desires that cross my reason I regret the day I was born a boy Dread the day I was taught the word destroy I'm afraid of edges I wish l could die a virgin Perfect parallel desires diverging Safe and sound in a room Side by side touching from a distance Wouldn't it be nice to stay a bit longer Turn the lights off and pretending we're sleeping And forget it's 2 of us Let the silence blossom Kissing as we fall down to the bottom Safe and sound in a room Side by side Parallels diverging
