Reanimated I'm back from the dead As strange as it seems Reliving the dream Again and again At least I do something It's better than nothing At least I do something At least it's not nothing Not unwilling to try I won't lay down and die You can't sleep at night 'Cause you don't do shit with your life You're unwilling to try You just lay down and die
3.
Second Hit 00:16
It's my second hit Take a second to take a second hit
4.
Snatched Up 01:27
I left my head for a minute Jump back inside in a second I go back and forth between Separate realities So snatch me up If you can The top half of the hour glass Is running out of sand I go with what I know Like the back of my hand I think I thunk a thought about Everything there is to know I'm going, going gone Without the flow Before I know it

Jazz Song 01:14
6.
I'm who I've always been I'm who I never will be I'm the dorsal fin Circling me Antisocial Hero Who nobody knows Is a social villain Making a killing killing Gonna turn you in To who you've always been You're the dorsal fin Circling you Expect expectations To remain a total stranger to me I'm not here to be Exactly what you need me to be I'll jump so high, I'll touch the sky Up where you can't even see Before I come down to the ground Where you never leave, jeez
7.
Don't let me fall into the Sea of Bored It's dangerous And for who, I cannot say It really depends on the day I see you wading in the Sea of Bored Contemplating all those things you ignored If I was chasing you, you'd have noticed before So goodbye until you make it to shore
8.
They look at us like What the hell are you doing with your life?
9.
Booked 02:52
I love this book It's such a good book I can't put it down I'm a bookworm with an earworm And I'm giving it to you Through the apple of your eye Where you form your point of view I love this hook It's such a good hook I can't turn it down Slitherin' on by, listenin' on high I'd tell you to your face But I'm too shy
10.
Wastoid 00:35
Back in my room I found another way Nothing to do I waste the day away Wastoid
11.
Planet Ape 03:19
Sitting on a planet Staring at the sun It's been a long time since I landed Am I the only one? Sitting on a planet Caught a shooting star Wishing I could share it Wondering where you are Hey, did you see What happened to me on Planet Ape? I found the answer to the universe And I don't know if there's a way To sound any less insane But let me know if you escape And I'll show you the way To find your fate on Planet Ape I've been sitting on a heartache Smothered it to death We're sitting on this planet Let it have a breath I wake up to the light And give it to the day I sing it to sleep at night It lets me float on the wave
12.
Are you really gonna fall for The banana in the tailpipe? Are you really at a standstill? Anvils are falling from the skyline
13.
14.
Like I haven't heard it all before Knocking down my door One's enough Now I know Heard it once a long time ago And now you tell me so No need to tell me twice Shut my mouth And take my own advice That's nice It's not that I'm unaware It's just that I don't care They say you say you don't care When you really do care But I swear, I really don't care I bare the weight of the air Don't gotta tell me no more Like I haven't heard it all before Not gonna tell you no more Like you haven't heard it all before
15.
Spot On 00:33
For the first time It seems like it's right Because last time It was so not right But this time thing's seem like they might Actually be alright
16.
Tim Sei Guy 02:50
Tim Sei Guy He's gotta go to work But he doesn't have a ride Working minimum wage But you know it's just a phase In the life of Tim Sei Guy He said he'd rather walk But you know he'd rather drive It's a hundred and five degrees outside His name is Tim His name is Sei And he's a guy He's somebody, he's nobody Like you and I And I don't know which name to use The dude's got two, so how do you choose? You don't, you just call him Tim Sei Guy He sits in a tree And says to me Reevaluate your point of view When all the evidence Contradicts what's clear to you What's clear to only you Clear your head and get a clue What's real to you isn't always true
17.
There's something up inside my head Don't know what the hell it is The doctor says it could be this And it could be that But she insists I might be schizo What the hell's that supposed to mean? Who gave her a PhD? I don't pay an arm and leg for the ACA So she can tell me what I might be I need a how-to guide On how to figure it out for myself I got a problem just like everyone else Oh me, oh my I'm waiting on my yesterdays to get me into trouble I'm counting on my tomorrows to get me through today Waiting on my yesteryears to get here on the double I listen to the voices and they tell me what to say

Piano Song 00:23
19.
Butterfly flies on by through the wind Comes inside and lands on my hand Explains things in a way that I can understand Shows me the truth that's buried in the sand She said, "Time does not exist to me I don't make moves, I make history" Déjà vu Butterfly girl, I swear I've seen you before That shit will hypnotize you
20.
I am 'cause I think But I'm not what I think You're not what you eat And you're not what you don't eat You think 'cause you are But you're not what you think Got hit by a car And I'm dead on the street The vultures fly down from the sky And they eat my eye They're not what they eat Eyes don't fly And the vultures fly away I am 'cause I think But you're not what I think I'm not what you eat And you're not what I don't eat The birds eat the snails Snails can't fly But the birds fly away
21.
I'll be the first to say that Won't be the last to tell you I told you so Let me take this time to harsh your vibe, bro Hope you don't mind Take a minute to take a second To set it straight for the record I'll be the first to tell you Won't be the last to say that I told you so Let me take this time to blow your mind, girl Hope you don't mind Take a minute to take a second To set it straight for the record Don't know who you think you are Blowing up like Violet Beauregarde You need a savior Ego deflator Let me take this time to harsh your vibe, bro Hope you don't mind Let me take this time to blow your mind, girl For the umpteenth time Let me make this rhyme to change your mind, world Hope you got time Take a minute to take a second To set it straight for the record
22.
Brain Beach 03:57
On Brain Beach They don't like you They tell you that they do But it's not true There's a heartbeat pulsating If you listen really close You'll hear it fading On Brain Beach There's a monster Who lost his soul playing brain doctor Misogynistic, egotistical Took a bite from the shore And hit the core I lost my shell and I'm dead now Like a salted snail I'm dead now On Brain Beach They don't like me But faking never looked so easy There's an outfit It's expected Just like anywhere and everyone's infected On Brain Beach There's a spirit If you listen really close You're gonna hear it singing, "Ooo, the breeze feels so good" Slow and steady wins the race But I've been going crazy At a snail's pace We're moving too slow Slow and steady wins the race But I've been going crazy In The Sea of Bored
23.
Everyone 03:17
Hey baby Won't you come and see me 'Cause I miss you Hey sister Still can't believe I miss you Come over and party Forget what mother taught me Hey father Why'd you even bother? Hey brother Say hello to mother Tell my dog I love her Make sure that gets covered Hey old friend This is not the end You'll see my face again I just need time to begin To start living Hey everyone In case I forgot someone We all live under the same sun
