The Distance Between Us

"Sometimes the best lessons you can learn in life is to be relentlessly pummeled into the concrete ground. But like Mick Foley who was thrown off Hell in a cell and plummeted 16 feet through the announce table, you got back up and keep fucking fighting. 

Sometimes you need to be slammed through the top of a cage, survive only due to a botched chokeslam, got your teeth knocked up into your nose, then continue to fight the 7' tall undead monster for 10 more minutes. Sometimes losing IS winning. (figure out your own fridge magnet quote idk this shit is hard.)"

LYRICS

I think it's time we grab the medic, I never really was all that athletic
But I did the math, I thought that I could make the jump
Don't you know that you'll never be enough?
Don't you know that I always get back up?
Don't you know I don't want anything else but this?

You think a 25 foot leap is gonna keep me down for three?
I don't think you know who you're messing with
You think 150 tacks are gonna keep me on my back?
I don't think you know who you're messing with

Covered in my own blood, smelling my own teeth
I do it for the crowd, no, I do it all for me
I do it all my life, I do it for Mankind
Do it for mankind

I think it's time we get to business, I swear that it'll only take a minute
Maybe I'm a jobber and I'll never not get squashed
Don't you know that you'll never be enough?
Don't you know that I like getting fucked up?
Don't you know I worked my ass off to get here?

You think a sharp barbed wire bat is gonna keep me on my back?
I don't think you know who you're messing with
Diving through a flaming table is nothing less than fatal
I don't think you know who you're messing with
So I'll get buried alive, yet somehow never die
I don't think you know who you're messing with
Lose my fucking teeth, but get back on my feet
I don't think you know who you're messing with
Tear off half my ear, but I'm still standing here
I don't think you know who you're messing with

Covered in my own blood, smelling my own teeth
I do it for the crowd, no, I do it all for me
I'll do it all my life, I do it for my wife
I do it for the cheers, no I do it for the tears
Cause I still got the stones, I'll do it for my bones
I do it for a living, and I do it for a home
I'll do it all my life

I do it for mankind
I do it for mankind
I do it for mankind
I do it for mankind

(Have a nice day!)

mandible claw - cricket!

"It continues to amaze my how fickle the world has become. Popularity and fame are as fleeting as a firework. Over the last decade we get an inside look and learned just how downright awful a lot of these people are. Many put on a mask of decency while pushing messages of positivity so that people will buy their protein powder or whatever the fuck~

I feel awful when I do any sort of promotion. I don’t want people to think they need to buy merch, or they aren’t a good fan. I don’t want to be put on a pedestal and treated like an otherworldly being. But I would like to make a living. Is it fair to make money off my art when those that relate to it the most are barely scraping by? Does this all feel worth it to you?"

LYRICS

I hate the player and the game
Cause nothing ever stays the same
Well, who am I to point the blame? I do it everyday

Narcissistic pessimism
Self inflicted cataclysm
I memorized the catechism, so we should be fine

I hope that we might all get better soon
Or else they'll try to terraform the moon
I hope that this doesn't come off as rude
But you don't need another photoshoot

They say the world's a scary, fucked up place
They'll break your legs when you complain
Buy my merch and send me gifts
Subscribe to all my fucking shit
If you're not losing, I'm not eating

I am the player and the game
Electrify, assassinate
Assimilating with your hate
Cause that'll never change

Calculated media
Hell's encyclopedia
Flashy colors, higher numbers
Wrapped around my thumb

I hope that we might all get better soon
Cause this post isn't giving me enough views
When the fame dies out, I guess that I'll die too
Entry level job interview on Zoom

They say the world's a scary, fucked up place
They'll break your legs when you complain
Buy my merch and send me gifts
Subscribe to all my fucking shit
If you're not losing, I'm not eating


I'm not the player or the game
I'm not one to evacuate
I've seen the future, lived the past
I don't think it'll ever pass

I know that big top carnie crap
You think that I would fall for that?
I refuse to ever suck up
I think it's cute you think you're tough

The numbers, numbers prove your worth
Greatest on the planet earth
King of all the punks and mods
Bow down to your fucking god

Check on me when you wake up
Don't sleep on me, it's not enough
Listen up, I'll make you better
Burn that ugly knitted sweater

I control your minds
Your filthy, stupid lives
Never tell you lies
Smile and comply

the player and the game - cricket!
