A distant thought in my head. All of my friends will be dead. Me and my family, too. Put in the ground, maybe soon. I won't be ready when it comes. Won't be OK for so long. I know there's nothing I can do. My friend, I know you'll die too. He died before I was born. She died when I was a boy. They died in a carcrash in highschool. She died not long after her. I don't mean to make you sad, ma. I'm only bleeding right now. It's just something that we live with. Everyone you know will die.

Time Lost 02:23
These days you wake up alone You're in a quiet room Maybe the bedframe's uneven Because you open your eyes Feeling the absence of something You can't quite put your finger on You're too young to forget But you don't recall the un-self-conscious thrill You once had about the future We used to tilt our chins up to the sun And through our bloody eyelids Say what we would do But you gave up Maybe it came in the dark one night As you lay alone under the covers Worrying about what your life would be like Ten years from now You didn't want to be scared anymore You didn't think you could do it alone You're looking for some finish line While your mind plays tricks on you Please don't give up on me I don't want to give up

Insatiable 03:46
We'll never have to get bored again With our new glowing blue friends We'll never have to think a bad thought Once we tell them which brand we are It's true, I admit it, they've swindled me too I sell them my history for convenient use And that's one more step closer, Big Brother This world we've created, There's never been another You know we can't look back What's done is done These sickos got us by the pockets How much is forgiven? How much do we lose? These forces of evil know you More than you But they remain hidden While we just forget They confuse and distract us From questioning them

about

These songs are about racing and wasting against time, so it feels appropriate that they sat on a shelf for two years. Life isn't meaningless but it sure is wastable.
