Accolade 03:30
VERSE 1: It’s eating me and I feel the insanity pulling deep. CHORUS: Defile me, What did your whispers tell you? Defile me, You want the accolades. VERSE 2: Social chameleon, enslaved to worship. Reminding me that nothing is sacred. CHORUS: Defile me, What did your whispers tell you? Defile me, You want the accolades. BRIDGE: Sensory overload. Sensory overload. I want nothing to go. VERSE 3: Snapshot, it’s perfect. You want it to be. Waiting in line, to be forgiven. CHORUS: Defile me, What did your whispers tell you? Defile me, You want the accolades. OUTRO: Sensory overload, To stay in zero seconds, I want nothing to go.

Poison 03:22
VERSE 1: I’m never gonna love you the way you want me to, The glass will never fill and time will not stand still. I’m never gonna love you the way you wished I would, Sparks won’t fly and I won’t cross my heart and hope to die. CHORUS: You, you let me in, But I, but I am poison. You, you let me in, But I'm… VERSE 2: I’m never gonna love you the way you want me to, My heart will never fill as your hopes fall down the hill. I’m never gonna love you the way you wished I would, Cupid will always miss and you’ll regret every kiss. CHORUS: You, you let me in, But I, but I am poison. You, you let me in, But I, but I am poison. BRIDGE: Didn’t mean to, String you on like this. I was just hoping that I’d eventually feel something. I didn’t mean to, Keep you hooked like this. I just wanted to see if my heart could beat again. Oh again, Oh again, Oh again, Again. CHORUS: You, you let me in, But I, but I am poison. You, you let me in, But I, but I am poison.

Why is it that you always twist and contort my words? Malicious intentions - it's all you know. The broken floor leaves serrated skin. And they you are - Always silently watching. I did this to cover my scars, And I had left a while ago.

Kamikaze 03:41
INTRO: I held my breath when you regarded me. And then it happened - the world stopped. But not for too long. VERSE 1: You exploded from the silence, My heart was caught in a web. I couldn’t keep this defiance, It hammered down in the end. PRE-CHORUS: It’s taking over this side of me, It’s giving over what you see. CHORUS: A kamikaze exchange of words, Leaves us short-strawed. The innocence of hanging feet, Keeps us alive. VERSE 2: So now what’s done is done, And now what’s said is said, You may think that they have won, But I know that their truth bled. PRE-CHORUS: It’s taking over this side of me, It’s giving over what you see. CHORUS: A kamikaze exchange of words, Leaves us short-strawed. The innocence of hanging feet, Keeps us alive. OUTRO: Kamikaze! (repeat)

My Catalyst 03:56
VERSE 1: Stitch the melodies. Steal the words. After hours, you’ve bled the stone. VERSE 2: Please help me to understand your illegible hand. Burn the paper, knot the words and wear them around your neck. CHORUS (half): Do the songs we make damn us? With bleary eyes I see a self fulfilling prophecy. VERSE 3: The windows stare with prying eyes at my shame, You were the last chance I ever took. I see you. I see you. Freeze the frame, and dig in nails till they reveal moons, My body is a battle ground and you are my catalyst. CHORUS: Do the songs we make damn us? With bleary eyes I see a self fulfilling prophecy. Dehumanise me, the reckless can see. One last dream that tops them all and I’m ended. Dehumanise me, the reckless can see. One last dream that tops them all and I’m ended. OUTRO: My catalyst. My catalyst.
