Navigating these new age jungles City species run through the curious dark Thinking now is the time to be alive As we stay out late enough to watch the sunrise From suicidal heights We stay awake to watch our minds commit themselves to their ultimate demise Once bustling brains become a barren tundra Their city thoughts die Bodies still moving with the beat Thoughts experience defeat Conquered by the never ending Availability of bad decisions We are the buildings with out ceilings We want another round We are badasses without feelings (At least we pretend to be with our looks and our sounds) ~ Messes in dresses running through empty city streets After the voices of those we love whispered They would never let us go And proceeded to do just so Learning to articulate from rap songs Not resisting the urge to emulate our bad influences Lot of love Lot of hate **** karma when you can’t discern What’s good from what is wrong It’s all going to break Down the hollow factory’s stairs Where we ruin our lives without compunction And brag about who we will impress With the mistakes we said we’d made

Full Speed Ahead to Some Place We Will Never Find
Navigating these new age jungles City species run through the curious dark Thinking now is the time to be alive As we stay out late enough to watch the sunrise From suicidal heights We stay awake to watch our minds commit themselves to their ultimate demise Once bustling brains become a barren tundra Their city thoughts die Bodies still moving with the beat Thoughts experience defeat Conquered by the never ending Availability of bad decisions We are the buildings with out ceilings We want another round We are badasses without feelings (At least we pretend to be with our looks and our sounds) ~ Messes in dresses running through empty city streets After the voices of those we love whispered They would never let us go And proceeded to do just so Learning to articulate from rap songs Not resisting the urge to emulate our bad influences Lot of love Lot of hate **** karma when you can’t discern What’s good from what is wrong It’s all going to break Down the hollow factory’s stairs Where we ruin our lives without compunction And brag about who we will impress With the mistakes we said we’d made
