Made for This

I should have known better
I should have known
I took a chance on instinct
I got it wrong
I dropped the ball
I should have known better
I should have known
I could not keep my mouth shut
I blew it all
I took the fall
But I ain't bitter
I'm bad enough as it is
Don't get no second chances here
You, you kept me running
You made me strong
You thought I'd come around but you
got me wrong
You got me wrong
No, I ain't livid
I'm mad enough as it is
Contumely was made for this
I don't want to be your lover
Don't want to be your friend
I just want to fuck and forget about it
No more pretend
No more pretend
No more pretend

Hardwired

Now you tell me that you shouldn't have to get
Another person to give you a permanent realignment
But knowing you I find that just a little difficult to believe
When everything about you says come inside
I want you to know me this way
Leave me standing on the shoreline
Of the river called Monongahela
Baby I could draw you all the maps
Put an 'x' down on the parts there that will nail you
Give a complete cartography of collapse
And write a list of all ones down that will fail you
There're so many names and so little room
I want you to know me this way
Leave standing on the shoreline
of the river called Monongahela
So tell me how the fuck does what I have to say to you
Get twisted into all this other bullshit
I think I keep well out of the way
I don't want to be around when the bills hit
To change you should
One day you'll be hardwired through for good
Uhuh

Harpoon Alley

They keep looking in the basement
Like it's the only place I've got to hide my bones
Put both feet down on the pavement
It's a long walk home
I've been down in harpoon alley
Since a minister discovered me this way
It's been getting a little better
I get lights for days
So don't come looking for No Exit
'Cause it don't get any easier than this
In a matter of an instant
You turn all my animosity to bliss

Cain

In an Hellenesphere of pain
Welcome to the multitude
This possessed
This dispossessed
This tryptomiocene
Cain
Cain
Cain
Cain
You fit your aptitude
To the reaction
You buy security and truth
With satisfaction
Cain
Cain
Cain
Cain
You crash, burn, bleed out, bitch, bemoan
You had it coming
That's not your brother's, it's your own
Blood you've got running
Cain
Cain
Cain
Cain
