Slogging Through the Riff-Raff
Fender-bender over there,
the traffic is awful,
ain’t not space left in the lot,
that’s such a load of bull,
and the punch-in barely works,
that’s almost criminal,
this is how we all start the day….
The whole server’s on the fritz,
I.T. just says reset,
I’ve turned if off three times,
but it hasn’t worked yet,
and the boss is running late
yet it’s a safe

Street Life Pitbull Thug
(Intro)
Yo, I got scars on my knuckles and dreams in a duffle,
Life gave me lemons, I sold 'em in a hustle.
Mandy said “swing by,” I said “bet,” no delay—
But what happened next? Man, lemme just say...

Verse 1
Mandy told me to stop by, I pulled up in Crocs,

Not Like You
Some say you are the best one,
sure have you a try,
you got curves that imprison
every straight man’s eye.
I thought we’d find our own path,
to see each other’s worth,
but we were just so different
that it all felt like work.
Both sides of every issue,
soon peace and quiet died,
sought solace in the bedroom,
the sex a pleasant lie.
Suppose we

The Money
Some folks just struggle in vain,
stress their nerve and wrack their brains,
wonder if we’re all insane,
when they see us create again.
They ask of visions deep inside,
a hidden genius in our mind,
what inspiration they can find,
and we just look at them and lie…
Because we do it for the money…
lots and lots of money….
yes all of us

Got No Feeling
Oh, since that day, I’ve been done with your games,
I’ve been done with your games, so tired,
left me in pain, and in courtrooms insane,
took half of my gains, you liar,
Now you just want to come back,
think it’ll all be a snap,
life’s just a lark, you were playing the part,
but woman I see through the trap.
I’m

Won't Take That
She gave her word and I just believed,
was the best thing that happened to me,
but, before long, on camera I see
her sneaking with a man who lives up the street.
Probed her for truth, but, oh, she just lie,
never had a hint of guilt in her eyes,
how can someone feel that justified,
even showed her the tape,

CHASING LYRICS
songer.co/song/gvtg1sewzhuxysyk7uzamyuw
[Verse 1]
Her voice is like a riddle, I can't decode the sound,
A smile that's always hidden, but I still want to stick around.
She says things like "maybe" and "we'll see,"
But I’m already lost in her mystery.
Each word feels like a puzzle I need to solve,
And I’m addicted to the chase, can’t get enough at all.
[Chorus]
I'm

Leap of Faith, Lyrics
I’ve been here before
At this event horizon
Is it shadow? Nothingness?
Heat?
A death
A fire of refinement
The pressure
Madness?
The spaghettification
Of my timeline
Rage, doubt, clout
Drawn into this pull
Is there a transformation for the pain?
Oh, lovely essence beautiful and fair
Are there only shadows, or does light reign?
Igniting my everlasting soul's prayer
To nurture a flame from heaven's domain
I search for holy ground,

Poison Pill Song
[Verse 1]
Dance near the silver bridge
Drop a penny in
A penny for your thoughts
You smiled like the end of the world
?
[Pre-Chorus – Extended]
You wrap your soul around me
Like silk that strangles soft
Every heartbeat borrowed
Suddenly, I’m suffocating
?
[Chorus – Haunting, Echoed Vocals]
I can’t breathe
I can’t breathe anymore
Your kiss was a poison pill
Your lipstick inked like blood
You swore it

Faded Into You Song lyrics
[Verse 1]
After mind hug
I was waiting in the dark
Warm as the kiss
You never gave me
Time didn’t stop
But I did
Right where you left me
[Pre-Chorus]
Even angels are bored
We ran out of time
I still whisper your name
Like a secret line
[Chorus]
Don’t walk away
I’m already faded into you
All the versions of us
Burning out in other galaxies
I loved you louder in

Lyrics
Lyrics come to me by moonlight
When the power of darkness lessens
When whispers soften like overripe
Mangoes dispatched hurriedly from India,
On ramshackle East Indiamen vessels
Sailing fruitfully through consternated
Waters and heated lines of the tropics,
Selling rewardingly on busy markets
Charged with the power of buy-and-sell,
And order-and-supply.
I wonder how Bob would react to
My girlfriend’s long and big, sexy hair
Blowin’ in

The Death of Us, raw emotions lyrics
I drove because I hated me.
I drove because I didn’t understand.
I drove because I am a loser.
I lost.
What did I lose?
The best timeline I could ever have.
Happiness,
Purpose,
A reason.
What did I gain?
Loneliness,
Sadness,
Grief,
Pain.
White for the innocence I left behind,
Pink for admiration, for gratitude in kind.
Red for the passion I buried alive,
Purple, the sun’s crown, her colors survive.
Dianthus

Good Knight, Lyrics
Guess who just had a baby
Then hearing about another death of a celebrity
Say hello to a group of friends
But look down and see I’m mute again
So Put in my password and username
But everyone logs into a different game
What? Am I the shadow?
Just An upvote, a like? Part of a brand?
Yes, please let

Oh, WiCkEd Queen, lyrics
What's up miss popular? People know about your greed
Ya, got the text. The "Hey, dotard, don't talk to me freak,"
The average joe, and those silly electronics"
Please, Click Itch, labeling others as the smelly geek
So many countless hours cushioning in luxury
Preparing to feed your lust, her dinner platter
