HEART BEAT 04:01
Beneath a shapeless sky There's no horizon line Tell me it will all be fine A sickly, smoggy haze Trapped inside a shrinking cage Haven't seen the sun in days Cracks are growing Can I breathe the toxic air Blowing through my hair The one percent just couldn't care Can you feel your heart beat Oh, heart beat Heart beat Omnipresent smell of smoke Burning inland, burning coast Air is what I miss the most Glaciers are melting fast Cloudy water in my glass Global warming kicks your ass Cracks are growing Can I drink the acid rain Pumping through my veins We're dying as they sip champagne Can you feel your heart beat Oh, heart beat Oh, heart beat Oh, heart beat Oh, heart beat Bass La la la la la la la la La la la la la la la Systems have been overturned Let me tell you what we've learned Play with fire, you get burned Can't escape the course we've set Mass extinction, growing threat Haven't got a safety net Overthrowing When there's not enough to eat Blood will stain the street And when their heads roll past my feet I will feel my heart beat Oh, heart beat Oh, heart beat Oh, heart beat Oh, heart beat

PARKING LOTS 04:07
See me falling I'll never hit the ground Crying softly As to not to make a sound The pain Written on your face You better get out There's something about About that rage Oh Skin is crawling Skeletons to be found Terrifying Your heart cease to pound The pain Written on your face Better get out There's something about About that rage Living a lie, leaving alive Living a lie, leaving alive Living a lie, leaving alive Living a lie Oh Fate prolonging Clouds of hate surround Bodies falling Crumple on the ground The pain Written on your face You better get out There's something about About that rage Living a lie, leaving alive Living a lie, leaving alive Living a lie, leaving alive Living a lie Oh

ELBOW GREASE 04:27
My mind goes blank, I sweat And then I start to stutter One million times before My symptoms have progressed I've got my bread, my jam I got no peanut butter It's never enough It's been a long time Me and my marijuana It's such a small crime I think they grow it in the ground It's been a long time Since I was in Regina It's such a small town vibe I've got this dream, I trip Fall up an escalator One million times before Camping is in tents Try to chill out, relax A Gin & Fresca later It's more than enough It's been a long time Me and my marijuana It's such small crime I think they grow it in the ground It's been a long time Since I was in Regina It's such a small town vibe Can you tell me why This just happens to me Is it because I'm shy Always looking at my feet A bit too high, I forget I forget Were you just talking to me Just a minute of your time Your mind goes blank, you sweat And then you start to stutter One million times before Your symptoms have progressed You've got your bread, your jam You've got no peanut butter It's never enough It's been a long time Me and my marijuana It's such a small crime I think they grow it in the ground It's been a long time Since I was in Regina It's such a small town vibe Can you tell me why This just happens to me Is it because I'm shy Always looking at my feet A bit too high, I forget I forget Were you just talking to me Just a minute of your time

HARD BALL 04:04
Lies, you buy everything they're selling you Curated, baseless, it scrolls right past your eyes Believe the unbelievable, untreatable You no longer empathize With the plight of your fellow man Get a plan, 'cause that's in common with the Klan Stigmatize, divide, sanitize Distract them with the other hand Damn me if I do Damn me if I don't Hang me if its true Tie me up in knots What else can I do What else have I got How do we get through Find the weakest spot Clashing contradictions Punishing the victims Strike it while the iron's hot Thrash against the system Ride the cataclysm Shake it like its all you've got Fear, let's make it disappear We hold the cards, their ours, so now the buck stops here You get that loud and clear I'll need a signal from the back that you can hear Disrupt the structure, rupture Upper, upper class Improve the future while acknowledging the past 'Cause as long as we're afraid, we're all just volunteers Until we tell them we can't hear them when they whisper in our ears Damn me if I do Damn me if I don't Hang me if its true Tie me up in knots What else can I do What else have I got How do we get through Find the weakest spot Clashing contradictions Punishing the victims Strike it while the iron's hot Thrash against the system Ride the cataclysm Shake it like its all you've got That's all you've got That's all you've got That's all you've got That's all you've got Hate, don't let it motivate Freedoms and rights, we'll fight, we will determine our fate Dare to elaborate Let me put this in a way you can relate Disrupt the structure, rupture Upper, upper class A little flex before we knock them on their ass 'Cause the gap's so wide we won't hesitate To come calling, pay a visit to the house behind the gate Damn me if I do Damn me if I don't Hang me if its true Tie me up in knots What else can I do What else have I got How do we get through Find the weakest spot Clashing contradictions Punishing the victims Strike it while the iron's hot Thrash against the system Ride the cataclysm Shake it like its all you've got That's all you've got That's all you've got That's all you've got That's all you've got
