Barbarian 03:18
oh lover, life's worst surprise is a death move slumber, lift your eyes one last breath you're someone that we want to be the art of responsibility lay low and duck your head from the shots some mornings fail to follow the plot same cereal stale from the night before still want it, kinda even want it more beat down all the pain in your name again relax like a true barbarian do overs, never quite feel the same moon roamer, push yourself into space silence leads to symmetry you act like you don't feel inside silence leads to symmetry rooms grow small when there's sadness to hide last days on earth deal simplicity now I know that money doesn’t grow on trees it grows on the backs you stab with a knife drips red on the golden hue of the prize keep swingin’ on the vines that tie your feet kick back and split the sun from the seeds beat down all the pain in your name again relax like a true barbarian

as a life ends and a couple moves apart a tattoo melts from skin, valet for the dark slung to the sun and it’s ready to roast chains lie flat almost comatose and I know we’re back at it a way to find power amongst the grasp and beside my last attempt to make our link to fame soaring past complaint of lazy eyes fading beneath the joy, hidden and destroyed some day I’ll go outside and walk away nowhere else to stay underwater panic turns up floating upside down steering calm and careless content, alone, no sound flip through the deck of cards slide through the broken barbs and I know we’re back at it

Land's End 03:50
strippin’ pride from my devotion the arrows leave me on the limits in my motion inhibit words so strong to rescind a personal motive kills the only reason to do performance filled with coded, destructive pleas for truth my behavior is your best guess a punishment in time a labored climb to assess my own worst fears so I stop and dream what you’ll do to me so I stop and think of the liberty that I took to the land’s end scenes fall into place not through manners but through the bombing of ego don’t manipulate me i’ve already sacrificed the blinding light of life fine with who I am a shadow wraps around my hand on command scenes fall into place not through manners but through the bombing of ego don't manipulate me i've already sacrificed the timing of my eyes

over the days, my soul has lost its charm the sleeves rolled up, but don’t reveal my arms heard hints of a bad thing, but can’t foresee a lie when I pull out, I can’t ignore your sigh send me away i start my promises when you stop tryna force your faults all the way to the top bored in a heartbeat it don’t pertain, there’s hopes we won’t speak of admitting my flaws, I can’t be loved conversations seem subdued reservations in taboo ignoring disappointment everyday send me away i start my promises when you stop tryna force your faults all the way to the top bored in a heartbeat send me my way right through the passing lanes of my own sleep night wires hanging down my dedication
