Mislav Forrester Although he may be Just A Bill, Bill Magerr lays down the Law on this album. In seriousness, though, this is very heartfelt music. Bill has serious chops and only uses them in the most tasteful way.

Happy 02:59
This is what you wanted All this what you wanted now Can’t tell what to do now Can’t tell you what to do now You will just scream louder And all of us will hear it We’ll forget it tomorrow Forget tomorrow again I hope you’re happy Do you need to push it Do you need to push me down Now you got to hold it Just don’t share it with those around You don’t know its good for you You don’t know what's good for you This is how we grew up Running out of shit to do

Excusing You 04:30
Oh look its one of your kind again Our combined sighs freezes your hand Preventing anecdotes abound Of ennui and stolen sounds Useless pain, nothing to me You aren’t sorry for simply existing? You’re proven wrong We never even liked this song Disgusting thing avert your gaze My body is my own to tame I know what crawls inside your dreams I said don’t fucking look at me I bet you use the term ‘deserve’ What a silly, stupid word For you especially Don’t think of getting off On me Go into the dark and stay there Go back where you came from We are more than yours We measured it Pain is worth more We measured it Your empathies never seen We measured it You can’t keep yourself clean We measured your output And its not sufficient faces locked for what isn’t Why bother you’ll never get it

Pretended to be this all the time See the way I live, crossed a few lines Are you embarrassed? To me, its just fine You want more from me, you’ll have to wait until The colors drained from skin no sweat to paint with now I haven’t put much value in what I gathered They speak to no one nothing that I want The rising sinking, won’t handle it Don’t make me do more normal people shit What do you you want Growing up too late means that I just can’t wait For players to line up to keep my promises Effigies of my past existences surround me Time and time again it just doesn’t really matter So for now, I’ll make this Easier on me You’ll always, think that Its easier for me Practically, relatively Between you and me, apart from you and me We just take what we can Easier for me Keep me beneath what you Expect from me What you plan to possess All of me?

In Title 04:08
Oh god, it's happening again I thought it was coming to an end Sliding right through my hands Falling, maybe you’ll never land Can you recall? Navels so soft Concave is what I did seek One day, I’ll find a way to speak This was nothing special My love, leave this old fool Can you recall? Egos so soft Can you be here? Don’t make this weird

Sick pt 2 06:00
Let try again in time Will lock you in two Fingers go where they won’t They made me inside Solidify your truth Sickens living things but I don’t make love Algebra of communing With me Imagineering Cycles end fruitlessly And I’m still here, plaining and I can't make love I’ve always been afraid Is that okay? I’ve always been afraid Probably not okay I’ve always been afraid Maybe it’ll be okay I’ve always been afraid It’s gonna be okay

Private Law 02:58
Speaking silences have you imagined all the Meeting fire spits from your lips it can lead to Nausea from both linings burn the acid through the Space shielded from violence always point my pupils down No we act differently, no we know we act different Issues always shifting hold another one to Assuage your temptation are you ready for it We have the same relation on this ground we force upon It’s a reflex It’s a complex We can’t see unreasoning its property of Venue vultures feeding on this paragraph of Peeking privacy you didn’t get to keep it Just come and hide with me I’m still way too scared to move It's a reflex It's complex and it reflects its complex

Normative 04:43
You know all of the facts don’t you Shove it out front of us to sooth Your exasperating thoughts gone From this human race you lost You’re forever victimized Not hard to explain away signs Inside your edumacation Habits ravenous to be fed You talk to much and you know why Preened your wings before you could fly It's not a point of view for you Some fancy coat tails to hold on to So wish it was all that simple Walk the same 200 steps all The same genetic programming Manifests in your whole family Can’t realize your own perspective Can’t even find a way out of it You talk to much and you know why Preened your wings before you could fly Mirror clear that we were tricked At least one of us isn’t shamed to You want to bathe in mothers milk I hope you drown You choose to feed on social cues I wish you choked You put your subjects into place they despise you I’ve seen the shadows on your face you’re left alone I found a path its dressed in thorns I’ll bleed again I’ve seen the grass greener but poisons within I lied to everyone so I could leave it shut You already punctured me I just covered up Your features melted in the mesh of your cocoon How could you heal when you’ve made yourself a wound?

Housemouse 04:03
They caught you in a spot You weren’t supposed to be You couldn’t stop Reminds me of something That I constructed only for myself I didn’t hear you break Discovering The small infectious pain And all your screams They translate to an unending defeated sigh Didn’t even mean to pass the harm Didn’t even mean to put you there Didn’t mean to push you down that far Life was all you wanted Grab what you can tear off From the next one I think I have heard This fable’s ending many times before I left you in your state Clouding the fact that It wasn’t too late Wouldn’t be the first one Your suffering I’ve chosen to ignore Didn’t even mean to cause you harm Didn’t even mean to leave you there Didn’t even have to go that far Hit me so that I could just not stare Can you sense me Can you sense me I’m leaving now I can’t do this These lives are chosen These lives are taken I don’t know how To justify it We all have burdens We all have burdens they feel the same But they look different I haven’t noticed I haven’t noticed until now Never understand it

I don’t want to lose you I lose everyone Let’s throw up our hands now And make some fun Why seriously The pain I can take it in Don’t mind the twitching I can bear it with a grin Seems disconcerting But we’re used to it Want you to be happy What you wanna get Just tryna make it Uneventually (Uneventfully) Until then just keep me Please don’t ever leave Just take it off you And put it on me Just take it from you And put it on me Just tear it from you And place it on me Just tear it from you And shove it into me Just take it from you And put it on me Just take it off you And put it on me Just tear it from you Place it on me Just take it off you and shove it into me
