River's Edge

I didn't need a gun, I used my hands
Face to face I wasn't mad
It felt so real, I had control
And I felt so fucking whole
We'll bury her so she is never found
Nobody has to find out
She couldn't move, she couldn't breathe
Her face was purple, she stared at me
She didn't look too surprised
And I felt so fucking alive
We'll bury her so she is never found
Nobody has to find out
We'll bury her so she is never found
Nobody has to find out

Wicked Plans
01:18
|

|
They pulled me out of yesterday
They trampled beauty in their wake
And though my heart would start to fray
I gave them all that they would take
My spotless image
And their wicked plans
We’re up above it all
And in demand
I didn’t want it
But they forced my hand
They think they’re so profound
What a scam
When he cut into my routine
I saw the freedom that I craved
He saw his chance to set his scene
In my humiliation wave
My spotless image
And his wicked plans
We’re up above it all
And take a stand
I didn’t want it
But he forced my hand
He thinks he’s so profound
What a scam

Inferno
01:49

There's something that you can feel
You know the threat is real
You can't articulate
What you've revealed
There's something that he won't admit
You know there's much more to it
Soon you will see
You'll find the key to understand
Pry up the floorboards that are under
The soles of your shoes and soon you will discover
The chaos below that you seek to control
Humanity’s calamity so tragically in this inferno
And now she spills the story
It echoes through the walls
Just before he
Convinces you she must be wrong
You won't be listening for long
You break away
Today is the day for you to uncover and
Pry up the floorboards that are under
The soles of your shoes and soon you will discover
The chaos below that you seek to control
Humanity’s calamity so tragically in this inferno
Pry up the floorboards that are under
The soles of your shoes and soon you will discover
The chaos below that you seek to control
Humanity’s calamity so tragically in this inferno
This inferno
This inferno
This inferno

Come By Tonight
02:22
|

|
On the run
His game has begun
You’re an accomplice in his mind
You know he’s wrong
But you play along
His guests are about to arrive
Nobody in the picture with him
Drink up his elixir
Try your best to take control
It’s too late now, you’re passed out cold
Red or white
His lethal invitation
Come by tonight
When you leave the station
Overwhelmed
He talks to himself
When there’s a party in his mind
Watch the show
On video
Maybe he’ll let you stay untied
Nothing in his home is what it seems
There’s nowhere to run, no one to hear you scream
The Polaroids expose his crimes
If you make it out alive
Red or white
His lethal invitation
Come by tonight
When you leave the station
He’s quick to clean because he knows
What their investigation shows
He’s quick to clean because he knows
What it shows
Red or white
His lethal invitation
Come by tonight
When you leave the station
He’s quick to clean because he knows
What their investigation shows
He’s quick
He’s quick to
He’s quick to clean because he knows

Boys Will Be Boys
02:36
|
|||
|
Story so familiar
It’s fine to treat us like toys
Cause boys will be boys
Everybody let it go
Nobody’d believe her
Everybody let her down
Cast her out of town
The answer’s right under your nose
She’s not the one
She’s not the one to blame
He had his fun
And he knew what he was doing
Such intimate questions
But they all need to know
They prod and they poke
Privacy and safety be damned
Thanks to his redemption
All of these kids are dead
And the falls run red
He knows that there’s blood on his hands
She’s not the one
She’s not the one to blame
He had his fun
And he knew what he was doing
She’s not the one
She’s not the one to blame
He had his fun
And he knew what he was doing
Never forgive
Never forget
Never forgive
Never regret
Taking revenge
Never forget
Never forgive
Never forget

Empty Room
01:58
|

Look around this filthy room
Picture what we have in store
For the monsters who would keep us
From each other anymore
I'm not afraid of bullets
And I'm not afraid of guns
I'm only scared you'll leave me
Even though we're bound by blood
I sit alone in this empty room
I wait for you, you said you'll be back soon
You and I will be together forever
No one could come between us, no never
In this empty room
You think you can go sneak off
When I trusted you to stay
But my brother you betrayed me
And you're gonna have to pay
I can listen to your thoughts
You can hear me in your head
Which is why you should've known that
We would end up dead
I sit alone in this empty room
I wait for you, you said you'll be back soon
You and I will be together forever
No one could come between us, no never
In this empty room

Pull the Trigger
02:24
|
|||
|
It's so secluded
Watch her shower, smoke a cigarette
Spark your delusions
When you slip your headphones on
The sound of breaking glass rings out and
Now the stage is set to watch
Her father's head explode over the song
On security tapes
You pull the trigger
Blood sprays onto her face
But you still kiss her
Follow the child
Through the empty field with gun in hand
You're running wild
But why won't you set her free
Instead you pour a drink and tease her
With the flame, don't understand
Why you won't take these opportunities
On security tapes
You pull the trigger
Blood sprays onto her face
But you still kiss her
On security tapes
You pull the trigger
Blood sprays onto her face
But you still kiss her
You pull the trigger
But you still kiss her

Hack to the Bone
01:20
|

|
He's right behind you
Your heart aches
You can't find a voice to scream
Your body shakes
They're in the alleys
They're in your home
No matter what you do
They won't leave you alone
Hack at his body
Hack to the bone
Hack at his body
He'll never atone
Still feel him grab you
Somehow
Even though he's just a
Body in your bathtub now
They're so persistent
They're all the same
They all take the
Same bullet to the face
Hack at his body
Hack at his body
Hack at his body
He'll never, ever
Hack at his body
Hack to the bone
He'll never, ever, ever, ever atone

Impact
02:23
|

|
A hollow backstory
That cuts like a knife
A dark room of strangers
Makes you feel alive
And when you're exposed
You will burn with spite
Everything's a reference
When you turn it into one
Everyone you study
Impacts who you will become
You think you're transcendent
But everything's fake
There's nothing inside you
So you have to take
When people see clearly
Your life's at stake
Everything's a reference
When you turn it into one
Everyone you study
Impacts who you will become
She's on the stage
While you're fading away
Nobody is gonna remember your name
Everything's a reference
When you turn it into one
Everyone you study
Impacts who you will become

Lay Beside Her
02:05
|
|||
|
The pain of the past
That haunts these halls
A painting entraps
And hangs on the wall
Infernos burn in your
Inheritance
Ablaze in the past
And present tense
The dead will rise when she's inside
And bodies lay beside her
They're still alive, devoured by
Bloodthirsty dogs and spiders
The incense burns
And she's aglow
The tables turn
But how could she know?
She's begging them to let her
Stay for more but
The gates of hell are open
And they're beating down your door
The dead will rise when she's inside
And bodies lay beside her
They're still alive, devoured by
Bloodthirsty dogs and spiders
The bodies lay beside her
Dogs and spiders
How white her eyes were
Lay beside her

You Don't Even Exist
02:20
|

I used to be naive
Thought you were everything
I fought so hard
I took my time
I thought that I was winning
You took advantage of
Trust and sincerity
You spread your lies
You spread disease
You spread yourself all over
My time
My heart
All things you don’t deserve
It’s my time
It’s my turn
To break you down
So watch your back
I’m coming for you
I don’t love you anymore
I won’t hesitate to hurt you
You don’t exist to me anymore
You don’t even exist
I know I’m wiser now
My sisters by my side
I found my power
Found my voice
I found out I am stronger
I never needed you
You only held me down
I know my worth
I know you’re fucked
And I know where to find you
My time
My heart
All things
That I took back
It’s my time
It’s my turn
To take you down
So watch your back
I’m right behind you
I don’t love you anymore
I won’t hesitate to hurt you
You don’t exist to me anymore
You don’t even exist
(To me)
You don’t even exist
(To me)
You don’t even exist
(To me)
You don’t even exist
(To me)
You don’t even exist to me

Let It Go
01:32
|
|||
|
They're in the alleys, they're in your home
No matter what they won't leave you alone
Now I'm stronger, now I know
Where to find you to take what you owe
Everybody says to let it go
Everybody says to let it go
Everybody says to let it go
(In alleys, in your home, we won't leave you alone)
Everybody says to let it go
(I'm stronger and I know how to take what I'm owed)

Drag
04:54

I wish that I could make some sense
Of why you prey on innocence
I wish you never looked my way
I wish I never learned your name
Hearing it these days
Drains all the blood from my face
(Drains the blood from my face)
I think of all your lies
Your insecurities
Your guilty conscience
That you would project on me
You tried to drag me down
Wanted to watch me drown
Let me breathe
Let me grieve
The life I couldn’t see
You tried to isolate me
Tried to villainize
My every word
All my friends
All my songs
My entire life
Control is what you want
And pain is what I get
The time I wasted trying to fix things
Is my biggest regret
So frustrated
Mind is inundated
With mixed emotions
And the notion
That I will never truly be free
You tried to drag me down
Wanted to watch me drown
Let me breathe
Let me grieve
The life I couldn’t see
You put up such a fight
I tried to leave
You held on tight
Let me grieve
The person that I never thought I’d be
The girl who stayed
Who’d tolerate
Your cheating, lying to my face
You begged me to stay
You swore you’d change
Until you said you weren’t to blame
Asked why I can’t see
The problem was me
Those words you repeated that made me believe
But the further away
From the mess that you made
It gets clearer
It wasn’t my fault
I know that in your mind
Everything you did was fine
I know that you will never understand
You tried to drag me down
Wanted to watch me drown
Let me breathe
Let me grieve
The life I couldn’t see
I put up such a fight
I finally left you far behind
Now I’m free
To let it go
And live my life for me

This album, much like the previous one, just manages to capture a lot of the experience of being a walking disaster of a person, but maybe one who might be learning to deal with that fact for a change. Trust Me is a hell of a track; it's always nice to be reminded now and again that I need I need I need I need help.
