pastor0fmuppets Quietly was, like, an anthem for shit going on in my life in 2019. So excited to see a full album finally arrive. Favorite track: Quietly.

Quietly 03:28
Quietly Quietly All the whores sleep in the afternoon And I‘m thinking ‘bout teatime at my house Quietly I watch my friends playing powerball And I‘m sensing blank despair in their hopes It‘s all that we want It‘s jack that we get Cruelly Dies the main street Quietly The lights go on on the dance floor And all the walkers moan and scuff back to their wives Quietly The headless king walks past his entourage And I wonder if this blood will ever dry It‘s all that we want It‘s jack that we get Cruelly Dies the main street

Perfume River I don’t settle for the regular I took you home and I performed real well My lips are sealed with super gloss I lick them as I call you fag I’ll never settle for the regular There is no doubt that I am superior Bargain-basement cosmetic surgery My freedom in this western world The weary kind waits But I have awoken I despise you but I just want to drown in your scent I rush To blush I don’t know what to do I hate myself for loving you How can you sit there with grace? After what I did to you I’m addicted to your reddened skin My heart beating in 8/8 time Am I who I think I am? Curtains closed we are what we are So I don’t settle for the regular And I hurt people so they can’t hurt me You danced I whispered in your ear That it’s over Over Please let it be over Alright? The weary kind waits But I have awoken I despise you but I just want to drown in your scent I rush To blush I don’t know what to do I hate myself for loving you

Dead Ends 03:58
Dead Ends Some photos lie The surface showing staged smiles But is it how I really felt that day? What I didn’t find in me I couldn’t find in you It’s what I didn’t find in me On all my better days I find my ways In the deep shades of love But lately All those dates been dead ends All those city lights I guess they tell me Stay patient, not alone I end up crying On my way home Alone inside my head again I started losing you When we go back will I still know who you are? What I didn’t find in me I cannot find in you It’s what I didn’t find in me Before My nights turn blind Take my hand oh-oh-oh But heaven knows it’s all Just a bloody fake Just a bloody fake Oh oh oh-oh-oh Before My heart fades out Take my hand oh-oh-oh But heaven knows it’s all Just a bloody fake We were just a bloody fake Oh oh oh-oh-oh Listening to your old tapes You left in my car I end up crying On my way home

We Are the Waves That Carry the Ocean I don’t wanna be a burden for you But I want to show you something This is what it looks like to lose everyone The feel of cutting to the bone We’re deadbeat Brothers We’re deadbeat Sisters We’re all drowning In their slump We were one Brothers Are we one? Sisters We are the waves That carry the ocean Sleeping bags turn into freezer bags tonight When winter comes they turn to body bags Goddamn you don’t see us, only feces in your street When the bubble bursts you’ll end up here with us We’re deadbeat Brothers We’re deadbeat Sisters We’re all drowning In their slump We were one Brothers Are we one? Sisters We are the waves That carry the ocean

Associates 03:59
Associates I envy you For your grit To stay yourself When the lobbies cast their nets But they all lied to your face Don‘t you know it‘s happening No matter what we do Discretion is abused In every way There is no vote In this war It‘s all tainted And debased Quiet are the moments when you learn I envy you For your will To resist To take their money and play along But you lied to yourself Don‘t you know it‘s happening No matter what we do Discretion is abused In every way There is no vote In this war It‘s all tainted And debased Quiet are the moments when you learn It‘s all in vain

Murder House 04:25
Murder House I close my eyes to hide from the dark How come you have become who you are O motherland, in father’s hand, he’s mad mad As march hares Wait! Take me with you, just out of here Well even if we are giving up We all are captured ghosts In this murder house If this war will last forever Is it love or is it black PR Painting rivals in dark oil O motherland, in father’s hand, I need a home Not a homeland Wait! Take me with you, just out of here Well even if we are giving up We all are captured ghosts In this murder house If this war will last forever Wait! Take me with you, just out of here Well even if we are giving up We all are captured ghosts In this murder house If this war will last forever

Underwater Beams Take down all their flags Take down all their names Union‘s crushed Quit or take your seat Climbing down the stairs Grey faces, empty halls They cut back On all the lower floors Your childhood dreams Like underwater beams Out of reach Will it ever be less hard? Pounding in your head Prescriptions need refill You feel beat The attacker has no face Old contracts making twice You stay in till late night Are we spoiled? There‘s nothing left for us Your childhood dreams Like underwater beams Out of reach Will it ever be less hard?

The Shiftless Heart On the rim of all nine circles A mind washed by one dark wave Sharpen all Senses, clear the haze Escape this everlasting maze Way beneath the falling skies A sin cleansed from all the blame Unveil all Traitors, end their lies Burn down their realm of demise Another hour, another day, whole years Lost to the slothful mind and the shiftless heart Another town, another land, the whole world Sitting on the golden throne of guilt

The Seed of Night The seed of night Makes me go The neon light Shall be my beacon Alone Alone I don’t feel free Why can’t I? Trapped inside This hole and I am Drinking Lonely Again I watch you dance All by yourself Do you see me? Lost in my façade Façade Break in Break in and erupt
