Balo 03:23
We're going to a gay bar with a horticulturalist He'll beat a motherfucker up just because he's Irish Best damn drinker that you'll ever meet An alcoholic catastrophe His breath may smell like a brewery He'll drive the ladies wild with the hopps and barley Two bottles down of Irish whiskey He'll finish out the day in the Welfare Beer League We've picked our spots in the fire below And I'll be damned if he'll never show Let's drink in hell with BALO I wanna drink like a BALO DRINK!!! We've got our doctrines we've got our degrees From Inebriation University He can fuel a flame with his blood for days With all that liquor coursing through his veins He's got a shit eating grin like a typical Mic A dry sense of humor that goes perfect with it It's under the table where you're drinks may be At the end of the night after all that whiskey

Panic panic Is what he says when the beer well is running dry He kept it cryptic With his liquid habits hiding in plain sight A viscous stroll Through the varicose veins And the plaintiffs calling out You're a liar and a drunk I'm a Functioning Alcoholic A reveler of mind and soul I'm a Functioning Alcoholic Take away the double A Remind me why I always trip and fall Defrost before display My heart is yours to take I'm a lush with a crush For a pint of a bitter beer or a sweet amenity I may slur my words With a little double vision But the Doc says it's ok You're an inebriate for good

There's places that I've been That I never wanna be again It's my drinking over love That's one of them With a calloused heart and a liver in distress I'm a match amongst accelerants So please hold off on all your prayers for me You're responsible for flatlining me It was a picture perfect life Apparently the camera got used to it Took too many photos of something he loved Now the shutter won't close and the lense is cracked He's held up in a dark room somewhere With baggy eyes and greasy hair Developing the end Overexposed are all of your pictures my dear Death won't do us part I'll drag your soul to hell You and I both know that's where we're going So please hold on tight To those caustic words Before that filament burns out of that bright light In death it's still your love that I'm holding I had this pain in my chest That you finally laid to rest As I entertained your lips To keep you warm in the cold Baby please just render me Pull me down from the rafters And I'll unfold my bat wings Death won't do us part I'll drag your soul to hell You and I both know that's where we're going It's the feel of your skin It's warm and smooth like Vicodin Just enough blood running to keep the moment Let me know where you'll be And I'll hold back anxiety Along with my jealousy unfettered So please hold on tight To those caustic words Before that filament burns out of that bright light In death it's still your love that I'm holding

'd give up all my oxygen To loosen up your lips for just one night I'd love to hear what's on your mind It's been a long day and I can tell by The tone in your voice That headache is never leaving And that sore back always seems to stick around You looked at me in disbelief As if we never held our love together well With glazed over eyes and cracking lips One foot in the grave before the other slips It's a bitch to remember that old age Seems to set in quick You're so stubborn and unavowed Asking questions is now allowed I'd rather have you scream at me Than to lose you my dear And when I'm dead and gone they'll say I wish I could just hear him play That song he wrote for me But I'll be visiting you every night You looked at me in disbelief As if we never held our love together well With glazed over eyes and cracking lips One foot in the grave before the other slips It's a bitch to remember that old age Seems to set in quick Old age seems to set in quick I wish that I could tell you How much you meant I wish I never had to die With you still left in lement And when I'm dead and gone It's my heart with you I'll keep Then I know it's you and I Postmortem love while we sleep

Celosa 03:31
I've got a certain criteria I've got a map up in my head I guess we'll cross that bridge If and when we haven't burned it down yet You're unavowed yet I'll allow Some room for my patience I know it hurts when it breaks Please believe me when I say Sometimes you have to let it go for fuck sake Break a leg is what they tell you When you walk out on stage It seems brash for a minute So they tell you calm down But you don't know how With this counterproductive cotton mouth So celosa why do you bother with me It's a shame that I blame such a pretty face For turning sour so quickly I need Another remedy to bash my head in And hold my down while I dream Of anything good that seems to come from jealousy Oh baby Why do you bother with me You held it in you're turning blue I feel there's something That you recently forgot how to do So let it go or they will say Here lies Celosa the romantic tragedy Oh baby Why do you bother with me One day we'll say What did we learn from jealousy
