Legitimate 01:37
i know you were joking but you were so right i will spend a decade in obscurity in this neighbourhood of conspiracy i will sell back what i stole from you we can split the profits it was so clear, it was mine to steal the joke curse is turning real but now i feel a deep regret (deep regret) buyer's resentment i carry with me this last intent i hope they at least think that i'm legitimate

oh how sweet your heart in the heart ready to spark the heat in your heart i can't breathe in through my nose or my brain will be discovered by the freezing cold i sing now so i can stop livin only in your thoughts but oh how sweet your heart in the heart ready to spark the heat in your heart

True Fool 02:36
you are a bitter editor and a true fool rejecting every gift that I've given you i can see through cute and you are see through you're just a kitten babysittin' this true fool i can see how that could throw you i can see the truth thats hid behind you cause you are see-through but i'm still a true fool a true-to-you fool and a fool to you truly im just a bitter editor and a true fool too accepting any job just to be close to you i can see through cute and you are see-through but i'm still a true fool a true-to-you fool and a fool to you truly

you're spending tuesday money like it's saturday night walking on that jagged line, trying to keep upright levelling out, i see now i had made you my enemy somehow if letting you in was my sin i'm sure its just a thought invoked by an incantation it should be known i'm just a man provoked by an incantation called the blood of the boyfriend i see it, and i get sick all the blood thats in your boyfriend on you it should be known i'm just a man provoked by his incantations like the blood of the boyfriend i see it and i get sick cause i know the blood of the boyfriend's in me if you want it to be

he retold my story as his own they'll be spreading fiction teaching thrilling lies to children cleaning up the evidence scraping off my fingerprints take it from the top thief it can be stolen easily keep your magic to yourself real detectives hate your mystery books sometimes reader, i forget you only know what i tell you of it if suddenly I retire from the public eye I will return to the private eye keep your magic to yourself real detectives hate your mystery books keep your magic to yourself real detective hate your mystery books mystery books mystery books

i can always trick myself always trick myself always trick you're the one who's clueless you're the one who's cruel don't know how you got everyone believing you this i insist we are to be struck from the list this is my emphasis my emphasis, mine i can always trick myself always trick myself always trick

Pain Tally 02:12
only within my deepest delusions could the scrawling of her pen concern me why should there be a smile there waiting for me? now i come to have to wonder if i would have ever offered what would she have said? one, two, three, four strike the pain tally son, for your birthday i give you this welder's kit go out and blow your future with it one, two, three, four strike the pain tally

Time Trials 02:26
ten minutes behind and he's racing alone chasing her ghost on my walk home tells himself i am so dumb whats my problem calls himself conductor of the emptiest train dragging behind him this load of dead weight the communal pen is running dry i'm giving up all control going backwards through time trials
9.
with minutes left and systems failing all seemed hopeless i still can't believe but i heard them say "we had a real long laugh about you today" and i wonder, did it ricochet? just trying to find my way around this stupidity parade i'm just trying to find my way around this stupidity parade

L.B. Forever 02:05
your eyes made the wind water your smile made the star shoot itself your legs cant peddle any faster or right now you'd probably be somewhere farther away from me and i felt like such shit cause i knew what i was doing was wrong when i did it you never attempted to bring me pleasure just a loading bar forever
