I. REPUDIATION (NEW YEAR'S EVE)
Lyrics by Nate Denson & Jonny Walden
[VERSE 1]
Hey!
I just want to say
This is really great
The way you pick apart
Every little thing
You hold your golden fleece
Above for I am weak
Another reproach to prove that
I'm wrong!
[PRECHORUS]
DOLEFUL AND DISCONSOLATE, MOROSE
YOU LEAVE ME
Forlorn...
TAKE A BREATH AND THEN TRY TO ASSESS
BUT I JUST CAN’T STOP
Can't stop...
NARCISSISTIC CHARLATAN YOU'RE SO
CONVINCING
Feeling...
WRETCH AND ABHOR EVERY GESTURE.
CURSE MY NAME AND DESECRATE THE
STARS I HUNG FOR YOU!
[CHORUS]
Can we fall asleep tonight?
And make believe we're both alright?
And to you... I say goodnight!
Promise me you'll leave my dreams,
Cause I can't bear to be happy
And to you... I say goodnight!
[VERSE 2]
Damn!
Can't believe we said
All the things we did
Hurtful words you say
Stab into my neck
The bond we have is weak
Strained and frayed for weeks
I never wanted for it to come to this
[PRECHORUS]
TRY TO COPE WITH LOSING HOPE WHILE
YOU RESENT ME
Lying...
FIND YOURSELF IN SOMEONE ELSE
DECEPTION'S BREEDING
Over and over again now...
CONSCIOUS EFFORTS MADE DESPITE OUR
UNDERSTANDING
Breaking...
MY WORD, SUCH NERVE
FURTIVE MALICE, SELFISH PROWESS
ERODING MY SENSE OF WORTH
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE]
So I choose to light the pyre
Watch it burn down the room and
We both choose to expire
We'll burn alone, we’ll burn in hell
[FINAL CHORUS]
Cinch every thread so you'll never leave
METICULOUSLY RIPPING AT EVERY SEAM
STOIC NO LONGER JUST LET ME LEAVE
Altruistic misdeeds breed catastrophe
PANDERING MERELY FOR DECENCY
My own reservations have leveled me
FABRIC THAT REEKS OF DECEIT
Why oh why can we not sleep?
FRAY THESE STRINGS AND FINALLY CEASE
[OUTRO]
Can we fall asleep tonight?
And pray for sleep before the light
For I don't know what to do
When I'm awake

III. DESOLATION (NEW YEAR'S DAY)
Lyrics by Nate Denson & Jonny Walden
[INTRO]
Close the maw
This void surrounding me
Starry gaze into a mirror
Yeah
DISTRACTION IS KEY
SO TAKE ME AWAY
[VERSE 1]
Am I closer now?
Dopamine defensive
This escapade
I thought I must have dreamt this
But now I see clear
Clearly I resent this
This seam...
Has been pulled
[PRECHORUS]
There it goes
Will I wake to mourn what's been?
We don't know
Hesitate, the memory comes back again
[CHORUS]
It's just the way I compromise with how I'm
feeling
It's just the way I try to fool myself when
shit don't make sense [SHIT DON'T MAKE
SENSE]
Capsules complicate me as I feed into this
farce
And I kinda wish you'd kill me
[VERSE 2]
Breathe
Breathe out tiny fractals
That used to be my future
[PRECHORUS]
[CHORUS]
IT'S JUST THE WAY I COMPROMISE WITH
HOW I'M FEELING
[BREATHE OUT BURNT TINY FRACTALS]
IT'S JUST THE WAY I TRY TO FOOL MYSELF
WHEN SHIT DON'T MAKE SENSE
[THAT USED TO BE MY FUTURE]
CAPSULES COMPLICATE ME AS I FEED INTO
THIS FARCE
[BREATHE OUT BURNT TINY FRACTALS]
AND I KINDA WISH YOU'D KILL ME
[USED TO CONSUME MY DREAMS]
[BRIDGE]

IV. TRANSCENDENCE (JAN 2ND)
Lyrics by Nate Denson, Jonny Walden, & Colby
Hughes
[INTRO]
[STRIP THE VEIL FROM THESE BLOODSHOT
EYES]
[VERSE 1]
They left me
Comatose inside a dream
But I was smiling
As they lay me down to sleep
[Astral Float]
Memory
Came rushing back to me
This pain I live with
Familiar atrophy
[Will I go?]
[PRECHORUS]
I don't think that I'm the same!
[Is this a dream? Why can't I wake?]
But these old bones, they can't complain...
[Lost in this space, without a voice]
I don't think that I'm the same!
[Is this a dream? Why can't I wake?]
These old bones can't complain...
[Lost in this space, without a voice]
I nose dived
[CHORUS]
I'm not coming back
To feel worthless
Give me a reason
To get out of bed
Cause I don't see it
And I don't feel like
I'm still a person
[VERSE 2]
Leave me be
In a place that I can't see
The more I travel
The less I want to leave
[Vibrations]
What can I say for myself?
I wasn't made to be loved
But I'm still stuck in this place
So I will just be okay
Soon I'll wake up
And have to face the day
[I am gone]
[PRECHORUS]
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE]
MAYDAY! MAYDAY! YOU NEED TO WAKE
UP THE CAPTAIN
NO WAY! NO WAY! JUST DISMISS YOUR
REACTION
OXYGEN LEVELS ARE SLOWLY DEPLETING
FUCK, THIS MISSION IS FLEETING
APATHETICALLY SEETHING
I'M STILL NOT SEEING
CRITICAL DAMAGE TO THE LEFT SIDE
ALL IS CLEAR, BABY LET IT RIDE
SOMEONE PLEASE HEAR THIS
TRANSMISSION
NO SIGNALS OF URGENT CONDITION
I AM JUST COMFORTABLE ENDLESSLY
FLOATING
THERE'S NO NEED FOR EMOTING
SAY TO HELL WITH THE WHOLE THING
YOU NEED TO WAKE UP
I JUST WANT TO FLY!
I JUST WANT TO FLY!
I JUST WANT TO...
[STRIP THE VEIL FROM THESE BLOOD
SHOOT EYES]
I JUST WANT TO DIE!
[PRECHORUS]
[Will I go?]
I nose dived
[CHORUS]

V. RESOLUTION (JAN 3RD)
Lyrics by Nate Denson & Jonny Walden
[VERSE 1]
You don't love me anymore
I ache to find a reason for our story
Everything was crazy [EVERYTHING WAS
CRAZY!]
Every detail sordid
Read between the lines and tell me why I
feel like I have just been dying out
STRIVE FOR UNDERSTANDING,
THOUGH TRY AS I MIGHT
EVERY PATH I HOPED WOULD FINE ME
HOME
MERELY BRED THE DAWN OF MY DEMISE
ONE MORE TIRED REPRISE
PERPETUAL THORN IN MY SIDE
[Oh... Here I am. Shift the sand, I'll sink]
I'm alright
[PRECHORUS]
You say I can't answer fate.
But it's just a style change.
The world has gone out to play.
And took my voice far away.
[CHORUS]
I reign supreme in Hell
Celebration! Celebration!
To choose this path I'm on
Separation! Separation!
[VERSE 2]
I can walk out the door
And once outside
I feel like I can breathe now
Keep it all together [KEEP IT ALL
TOGETHER!]
At least till you get to the car
Tell the truth my thoughts conclude that
this is just a stammer in my rhyme
NAUSEOUS AND DESPONDENT
FLING YOURSELF DOWN THE STAIRS
BLINDLY RIFLE THROUGH THE STACKS,
COP SOME BOOKS ABOUT REPAIR
TALK ME DOWN, BLEED IT OUT
FACE THE DAY, RECTIFY THE DISMAY
[Oh... Here I am. Shift the sand, I'll sink]
I'm alright
[BRIDGE]
Crying... gasping...
On a kitchen floor...
Feeling so weak, coffee spilling
But I'm still alive today
[PRECHORUS]
[CHORUS]
[OUTRO]
Celebration!
