The Ground
(Redard)
I can hear it coming
I know it's hard to believe
It's just a second
But the sound
Well it’ll vibrate and turn our right minds off
Give us just enough time to forget
All the instructions
We know by heart
Then the ground shakes – shakes, it makes
Everyone run outside and forget it all
Our souls break
‘Cause we tend to forget that it’s always been so
So we go
We disregard how we know to proceed
So we can feel free
Before we die
True, there’s no heroes
It’s every man for himself
It’s not a fire
‘Cause that gives time
But this is just a reminder that we’re not
Altruistic ‘til there’s time to think
How would it look now?
Then the ground shakes – shakes, it makes
Everyone run outside and forget it all
Our souls break
‘Cause we tend to forget that it’s always been so
So we go
We disregard how we know to proceed
So we can feel free
And our bodies shake – shake, it makes
Everyone run outside and forget it all
Our souls break
‘Cause we tend to forget that it’s always been so
So we go
We disregard how we know to proceed
So we can feel free
Before we die
Shake – shake, it makes
Everyone run outside
Our souls break
‘Cause we tend to forget about everything
So – so we go
We disregard how we know to proceed
So we can feel free

Poisonous
(Redard)
Watch out
I’m gonna break it down now
To tell the truth there’s not so much to learn
So look out
You gotta know her hot spots
You’re gonna have a step-by-step to run
‘Cause some people hold on to faces and some people hold on to names
But she’ll never do either
To her it’s all the same
So watch out
You better treat her right now
‘Cause there’s no do-overs; you can’t try again.
Watch out
‘Cause this girl here’s tricky
I know ‘cause she’s my friend, I’ve seen her play
Do the work
Let her see you’re willing
To leave it all for her; be assured she’ll want that
You’ll be losing sleep for her; she’s all that
She’ll break you, she’ll take you
Far away from life you
Thought you had, you won’t miss a thing
You’ll end up with nothing
But you’ll be left wanting
Less from life and just more from her
‘Cause she’s poisonous
She’s poisonous
She’s poison but she’s worth every drop
‘Cause some people will let you love them and some people will let you leave
But she’ll ever do either
Until you can’t breathe
So shut up
You’re gonna need to focus
If she looks around she’ll up and leave
She’ll break you, she’ll take you
Far away from life you
Thought you had, you won’t miss a thing
You’ll end up with nothing
But you’ll be left wanting
Less from life and just more from her
‘Cause she’s poisonous
She’s poisonous
She’s poison but she’s worth every drop
‘Cause she’s poisonous
She’s poisonous
She’s poison but she’s worth every drop
‘Cause some people hold on to faces
And other people hold on to names
But she doesn’t care, she’ll hold on to you ‘til she’s done
And she won’t be ashamed
Some people will let you love them
And other people will let you leave
But she doesn’t see you at all, you’ll know when you fall
Into her game, oh
She’s poisonous, poisonous, yeah
Poisonous, poisonous, yeah…

Is This Violence
(Redard)
I can’t get up
It hurts too much
To be with no pain
You’re way too good
I’m beneath you
So I panic
‘Cause everyone else has the charm of explained sarcasm
And everywhere else is a waste of time
And every scenario where I’d end up with out you’s a lie
I can’t get out
Well is this violence?
‘Cause I don’t feel like I can leave
Is this violence?
‘Cause you can become everything
Because it hurts when you smile, my eyes, they sting for a while
Turns out you’re too much to take in
Is this violence?
‘Cause I don’t get a choice here
A victim of
A lock-tight deal
A first world problem
When it goes wrong
Boy, does it go wrong
There’s no way out
‘Cause every word I say is like I spilled some red wine
It only becomes harder to contain
And every effort to angle towards your freedom goes wrong
You bruise it up
Well is this violence?
‘Cause I don’t feel like I can leave
Is this violence?
‘Cause you can become everything
Because it hurts when you smile, my eyes, they sting for a while
Turns out you’re too much to take in
Is this violence?
‘Cause I don’t get a choice here

I Don’t Die
(Redard)
Sleepless nights
I think I may have found the truth
A stagnant life
The aftermath of learning I was finite too
Where a limiting mortality could prove to be the end
I was told I wasn’t going anywhere
I don’t die
I just keep going on eternally through life
But I don’t die – ie – ie – ie
I don’t die – ie – ie – ie
I don’t die
I just keep going on eternally through life
But I don’t die
It’s a state of boredom and never-ending questioning
Like why?
Why I can’t give up the ghost and be like most and go
But I don’t die – ie – ie – ie
I don’t die – ie – ie – ie
And it raises many questions, more than it can address
I was told what really mattered wasn’t there
I don’t die…
