Impotent 03:11
lyrics

Chop my arm ff to keep myself alive If you cut me, I won’t bleed Alcohol numbs the pain, senses dulled, I’ll go insane Like to think I’m not confused. Let them choose who hears the news All the eyes turned but their heads stayed still As they quietly chose the one to kill I’ve got nothing much to say, nothing much to say I’ve got nothing much to say. They don’t care anyway Crush my body to allow myself to breathe Shaking hands can’t hide the need Looking for inspiration, fuck history and alienation All the eyes turned but their heads stayed still As they quietly chose the one to kill I’ve got nothing much to say, nothing much to say I’ve got nothing much to say. They don’t care anyway All the eyes turned but their heads stayed still As they quietly chose the one to kill I’ve got nothing much to say, nothing much to say I’ve got nothing much to say. They don’t care anyway I’ve got nothing much to say, nothing much to say

I Don't Believe 03:11

You looked so good in that dress but you never wore it again And anyway, it didn’t fit me. I shouldn’t have tried it on You seemed to be so perfect until I saw myself up close I thought I’d never see you again and so far I haven’t So many people have told me, "I believe" So many people have told me, "I believe" I don't believe in miracles I don't believe in perfection, oh no I don't believe in living things I don't believe in me Someone once said to me bananas and oranges are fruits And if you peel them they'd taste nicer but it's always so much trouble It seems that many things seems to be not quite what they seem I wonder if we're dreaming when we sleep or if we exist So many people have told me, "I believe" So many people have told me, "I believe" I don't believe in miracles I don't believe in perfection, oh no I don't believe in living things I don't believe in me I don't believe in miracles I don't believe in perfection, oh no I don't believe in living things I don't believe in me I don't believe in miracles I don't believe in perfection, oh no I don't believe in living things I don't believe in me I don't believe in miracles I don't believe in perfection I don't believe in living things I don't believe in me

Like Me 03:48
lyrics

Creep is my big brother He makes me feel so small Feel so small Like a speck of dust Not as worthy as the other specks Broken necks But I want everyone to love me And still be antisocial Antisocial This city is waiting for a vaccine Slow down, breathe in It's not like me I'm very scared of walls They make me want to hurt me It's too early But what would people think? I don't want them to see me It's too easy This city is waiting for a vaccine Slow down, breathe in It's not like me I could have thought of that

Turd 02:29
lyrics

Money, money, too much is not enough for me I’ll sacrifice my artistic integrity I’ve got plenty of work, doing what I adore But I’d rather become another corporate whore Safe faces everywhere This android’s self aware No one has been spared From giving Satan head Oh honey, honey, I love you and I wish you’d stay You feel so crisp and smell so good, I have to say I can hold you up to the light and see through you You let me get away with anything I want to Eyes blinded by the smoke From this bonfire of bad jokes Now one can only hope The devil’s cock will make them choke Going down, going down More money, a bigger car More money, a bigger car Satan made me a fucking star Satan made me a fucking star

Half the Time 04:35
lyrics
buy track
Trouble with a lower case “e” And six other letters that precede it I wish I had the confidence of a homophobe Good to know that nobody could resist me I'm thinking far too much I'm drinking far too much It's an emergency. Something slipped out Now it's out of the bag Someone's droning on and on About their celebrity status And how many people they've slept with I'm thinking far too much I'm drinking far too much Let's say I'm dead half the time So much I need to forget Let's say I'm dead half the time So much I need to forget Let's say I'm dead half the time So much I need to forget

Virtue 03:33
lyrics

Evil is a virtue I heard someone say the other day It makes no sense to forgive my words Someone has to pay Breathing through an apparatus Designed to knock you out Thank your fathers for your fame Take it all, it's a simple game Hang your haircut, break your fall Suck your pillow through it all Breathing is a luxury to me. I wish Someone would take all this away It's hard to be unhappy sometimes What a stupid thing to say Squeeze my heart with painted nails Snarl and stab them in Thank your fathers for your fame Take it all, it's a simple game Hang your haircut, break your fall Suck your pillow through it all Breathe on me Don't breathe on me Don't breathe on me Don't breathe Breathe on me No

We're Not Really There 05:35
lyrics

Life passes by us like a yoyo craze We strive for intimacy through invisible lines No truth or consequence carries weight in our eyes We are merely extras in the movies of our own lives We fumble happiness like a loser child Our joy is counterfeit, though it feels like gold Our jokes are all the same and they never get old We can't even hear the soundtrack playing as our stories are told We take our chances like an actuary We fall so easily at the slightest touch Faint contact brings relief 'cause we want it so much We are simply extras in the movies of our own lives All our special friends are plugging the holes We're wanted but have we lost our souls? We give up one moment to show that we care It's touching but we're not really there All our special friends are plugging the holes We're wanted but have we lost our souls? We give up one moment to show that we care It's touching but we're not really there All our special friends are plugging the holes It's touching but we're not really there We give up one moment to show that we care Touching but we're not really there All our special friends are plugging the holes

Scott's Dream 04:55
lyrics

Your bus is leaving Your bus is leaving That day. Oh, remember that day when Troy turned into me? We walked down towards Maslin’s beach Your bus is leaving Your bus is leaving I said I'd meet you later on In the beach's clothed section Yeah, I'll meet you when I'm drunk Near that guy in the blue trunks You're one in a bus of schoolgirls You're one in a bus of schoolgirls You said that you'd never seen Anyone play a stuffed animal like that I had a stuffed animal that I played And I made it rotate Your bus is leaving Your bus is leaving We made a connection in Scott’s imagination

In the End 03:01
lyrics
buy track
Swallow pills Smashing my head ‘cause it gives me a thrill Try it on Pretend that I’m fearless but try to be careful It’s all meaningless in the end Find my space Pretending I do it ‘cause I like the taste Enemies Are something I wanted but I will be happy It’s all just a game in the end Try to be happy All I want Try to be happy All I want Try to be happy All I want Is to be able to laugh at myself in the end Enemies Who needs to think when we've got drugs like these? Run away Back through the passage, decipher the message We're all going to pay in the end Try to be happy All I want Try to be happy All I want Try to be happy All I want Is to be able to laugh at myself in the end Fake girlfriends Never quite ready to tie up loose ends Tragedy Is something to ponder but I just don't want to We're all going to lose in the end In the end In the end In the end

about

My debut album, Regret, is a collection of old songs, all at least 10 years old, most of which we don't play with Cancelled. Some of them were even written in the 1990s!
