Better Sleep (free) 03:00
Oh I know all I need all I really need To stay clean is better sleep Yeah better sleep is all I really need Wake Up! We’ve aspired for decapitation While we turn a blind eye toward the guillotine parade Have no more use for counting sheep No use! We’ve aspired for asphyxiation A suffocating glimpse at this fucked reality Are we wasting our days with this better sleep? I have no claim in this waking life I’m tethered, bound, and gagged Wanna wish it good night, I have no claim in this waking life! Quick stop! It’s too late It’s too late to get wasted We have aspired for asphyxiation While we turn a blind eye toward the guillotine parade.

Tchoupitoulas Slim (free) 01:34
The heat is rising to 300 degrees While these decorative bullet holes adorn our city limit signs Would you wanna be alone When our streets are dressed up in pitch black? There’s a shadow on the prowl tonight, His cross hairs are indiscriminate We’ve fallen pray To the darkest of hearts We’re staring down the barrel Of an epidemic I have no murder wish this evening! When did killing Become instinctive? When did he become a victim of you and me? When did she become the killer outside your door?

Spitting Contest (free) 03:50
No! There was never a prize in sight! My, my, my What a surprise Your friends in sheeps’ clothing Have shed their disguise I had a plan to crash into the night Instead she crossed that line What’s that bad taste in my mouth? My, my, my What a surprise Your friends in sheeps’ clothing Have shed their disguise I had a plan to crash into the night Instead I fed a lie that’s that bad taste in my mouth They keep a watchful eye from planes To make sure your city’s safe and sound They keep a watchful eye from planes They put them up we’ll shoot them down I had a plan to crash into the night Not to be stood up! So don’t call on me for your last call redemption You temptation whore Enough! Enough!! You lied, you lied Fake operation Sadie You lied, you lied Fake operation Sadie It’s all wrong There was never a prize in sight So don’t call on me

Lotta people won’t get to sleep tonight Lotta people won’t get to eat tonight If we sift through the topsoil We’ll make it better and better and If we sift through the topsoil How do I live Before I exist In this madman’s day by day? With television walls to tuck me in Television walls to tuck me in While outside screams of poverty! You feel time tickin’ away Did you spend your better days in a comfortable haze? Waste time tickin away Do we deserve the very best things like dinner plates?

27's Part.1 (free) 04:38
There’s a roach on the wall by the door where I pace Done hitting the lines off of Ray Charles’ face The last of the numbers are sweating out my pours Momentums pushed my feet out from under me I stare out the window while everyone sleeps Like last night the last time we pardoned our self-control I can kick a habit Like she’ll kick me to the curb And I’ll forget the message When she forgets the words I’m out of my mind, Can’t live this life If I can’t kick this habit If I can’t kick this habit I’m out of my mind Can’t live this life Can you help me find a reason? The last thing she said right before she left The last thing she said right before she left We can’t make this better Just go. We’ll always be fighting and fighting and fighting and fighting (In spirals)

27's Part.2 (free) 05:00
Mix a highball with glass walls Guilt with low-bars and dropped calls Where did you sleep last night? She’ll push a pen across a paper Trying to come up with reasons why She’ll push a pen across a paper Until she comes up with something like…

We had it all in the beginning. We had all kinds of rings and things she made the money. But Rosie was the type to just lay the money down. Drop it on another boy before she left town.
