Mega Bad Disaster Party

Eyelids 2024! (ft. Joystick)

Shut the hell up it’s all too loud

This is incessant noise won’t stop

I can’t turn it off

Or look away

If it’s not here it’s somewhere else

When everyone tries to speak at once

My voice begins to drown

Suddenly my brain shuts down

And I can’t run away

And I can’t shut it off

I can’t (I can’t)

Think for myself anymore

When everyone’s so loud

They’re screaming yelling over nothing at all

I can’t (I can’t)

Think in my own words anymore

I can’t hear myself

Over everything and nothing at all

They always say open your eyes

But it’s safer to shut them

They always say open your eyes

But it’s safer to shut them

(Because the inside of my eyelids

Is the only place I’m safe

And when they’re open)

I can’t (I can’t)

Think for myself anymore

When everyone’s so loud

They’re screaming yelling over nothing at all

I can’t (I can’t)

Think in my own words anymore

I can’t hear myself

Over everything and nothing at all

Whooaaa

Shut the hell up it’s all too loud

This is incessant noise won’t stop

I can’t turn it off

Or look away

If it’s not here it’s somewhere else

Shut the hell up it’s all too loud

This is incessant noise won’t stop

I can’t turn it off or look away

I can’t (I can’t)

Think for myself anymore

When everyone’s so loud

They’re screaming yelling over nothing at all

I can’t (I can’t)

Think in my own words anymore

I can’t hear myself over

Everything and nothing at all

Chaos Magick

Chaos Magick

It’s chaos magick

The story starts with our happy ending

But the fear crushing us felt unrelenting

Hardly got to honeymoon

When they salted all of our open wounds

So many times I had to start over

And every time I felt that I didn’t get closure

The future I believed in just didn’t exist

But something much more beautiful did

When the big picture didn’t seem clear

I did what I needed to, to persevere

Even though I’m still fighting with doubt

I feel my confidence coming around

They’ve got no power over us

In our collective consciousness

It’s a force

It’s a hot mess to accept

To manifest an unreal dynamic

When we get together, it’s chaos magick

When I had fallen down,

I was lifted up above the crowd

Feels a bit like a dream when you sing it back to me

Get shook up someone believes

The way you believe in me

It’s a spell when we all join

Energy can’t be destroyed

Voices shouting our name

A tiny spark grows to a flame

We’ve done so much on our own

That can’t be stolen

Now we take it back for our own

Anywhere we go can be our home

Now we take it back for our own

Anywhere we go now

They’ve got no power over us

In our collective consciousness

It’s a force

It’s a hot mess to accept

To manifest an unreal dynamic

When we get together, it’s chaos magick

Dude Poisoning

Michi:

Early on my bandmate told me I wasn't hot enough

And when I turn 30 I should just give up

On my pic some dude commented, she's ugly and fat

They photoshopped my mic into some dudes shaft

Fighting keyboard warriors out of my head

Couldn't meet musicians not trying to take me to bed

At the show he talks to me til he meets my partner

These fuck boys don't know that I'm so much smarter

Under his breath he calls me a bitch

And in my head I'm swinging my fist

I've got dude poisoning

Yeah these dudes make me sick

But the cure is know my band is better than his

Under his breath he calls me a bitch

I smile and laugh because it is what it is

I've got dude poisoning

Yeah these dudes make me sick

But the cure is know that he's gonna get his

I keep blaming my failures on looks

While the worst of dudes just kept getting booked

I'm not perfect but I've got my own power

And others they feel it, together we're louder

My pronouns are they and she

But I'm more of a man than he'll ever be

A man looks out for his community

These are my people, this is my family

Under his breath he calls me a bitch

And in my head I'm swinging my fist

I've got dude poisoning

Yeah these dudes make me sick

But the cure is to know my friends are better than his

Common Sense Kid:

I'm so sick of trying

To counteract these lads whose attention is vying

Does it inflate your ego?

When you puff out your chest because the algorithm says so?

From others you borrow

Regurgitate the words because your life's so hollow

Masculinity is not defined

By the toxic traits of your so called role models

Now keep up cause here's the thing

Between nature and nurture the needle rarely swings

These days social media has become a disease

And when the apples start falling too close to the trees

You need to set an example to stop the rot

Because just one bad apple will spoil the lot

If you want to put me down then take your best shot

Brace yourself, here comes the drop

Michi:

I'm sick and tired

Tired and sick

I won't let him get away with it

Under his breath he calls me a bitch

And in my head I'm swinging my fists

I've got dude poisoning

Yeah these dudes make me sick

But the cure is know my band is better than his

Under his breath he calls me a bitch

I smile and laugh cause it is what it is

I've got dude poisoning

Yeah these dudes make me sick

But the cure is know he's gonna pay for this

Look Alive

Hello, World!

They say good things go to those that wait

And I have patiently waited

That’s the mistake I have made

That’s the mistake I keep making

They say man plans and fate laughs

I make good plans and watch them crash

If only this song could get heard

For every time that I’m told to

Look alive (look alive)

Fake a smile (fake a smile)

You’ll see better days soon (Better days soon)

Once in awhile (It'll be worth while)

They say good things come to those that wait

And I have patiently waited

I’ve got the patience of a Saint

I’m the Patroness of the Wait

They say to cool your heels

Stay the course

Waiting doesn’t pay for meals

don’t want to eat a dead horse

If only these words could be heard

For every time that I’m told to

Look alive (look alive)

Fake a smile (fake a smile)

You’ll see better days soon (better days soon)

Once in awhile (it’ll be worthwhile)

Look alive (look alive)

Fake a smile (fake a smile)

You’ll see better days (better days soon)

Once in awhile (it’ll be worthwhile)

Look alive

Fake a smile

You’ll see better days soon

Once in awhile (it’ll be worthwhile)

Look alive (look alive)

Fake a smile (fake a smile)

You’ll see better days (better days soon)

Once in awhile (it’ll be worthwhile)

Rainbow Heartache

Projector

What if I were the biggest person

Say like 50 feet tall?

Their words became my curse then

And like always I take all the fault

I’ll become the monster

You always make me to be

When I rise up from the water

I’ll make you wish you never spoke down to me

Why’s it called a meltdown

When I feel like I’m about to explode

I’ve been your letdown

I've put my foot down

I’m done being controlled

Chorus

Revenge is starting to sound fun

Give you the head start to run

Pick it up, you should run a little quicker

The biggest person is getting bigger

I’m stomping all over these streets

Just like the way that you walked all over me

Grow up, you should go to therapy

That’s where I learned you don’t deserve the best of me

_

You been banging on your chest

Because I didn't text

It’s not worth trying

When it always comes down to fighting

I’m the bad guy, call me Billie Eilish

Your daddy issues are really fucking childish

Projecting, You should go to therapy

Flexing, you’re always trying to mess with me

This is a story is about my growth

And if my anger lost all control

This whole daydream might be juvenile

I’ve been busy raising my inner child

I can recognize all of this privilege

From the sky with my giant woman vision

Revenge is starting to sound fun

Give you the head start to run

Pick it up, you should run a little quicker

The biggest person is getting bigger

I’m stomping all over these streets

Just like the way that you walked all over me

Grow up, you should go to therapy

That’s where I learned you don’t deserve the best of me

Revenge is starting to sound fun

Give you the head start to run

Pick it up, you should run a little quicker

The biggest person is getting bigger

I’m stomping all over these streets

Just like the way that you walked all over me

Grow up, you should go to therapy

That’s where I learned you don’t deserve the best of me

Retrograde

Turning back now
Rephrasing what I say
words come out the wrong way
I’ve got a lot weighing on my mind

But I’m lost in words I can’t find
The suns in Aries
I should be on fire
I’m unplugged and tangled in wire

I can’t escape this retrograde
Struggling to communicate
No control over my fate
Mercury’s me for prey

Feeling helpless
Devoid of Power
Sweet words turn rotten gone sour
I wish you could read my mind
Or the stars could realign
The sun’s in the sky
The cloud’s begin to part
My tongue
Can’t translate my heart

I can’t escape this retrograde
Struggling to communicate
No control over my fate
Mercury’s me for prey

Can I skip this?

I can’t escape this retrograde
Struggling to communicate
No control over my fate
Mercury’s me for prey

Slow Motion

[VERSE 1]

When I was a child

I was the brightest in my class

But my mind it moved too fast

But now I can’t keep up

I’m an adult without a path

I’ve looked the wrong way and I’ve crashed

Now we’re mixing business and pleasure

I’ve been feeling the pressure to pull it together

If I was never in control

I could just let it all unroll

[CHORUS 1]

We can take it step by step

Baby you and me

in slow motion

Whatever happens next

On to you I’ll keep holding

[VERSE 2- Guest Vocals: Chris Songco]

Brain always busy at work, a situation to read

A mystery to unearth, a social media feed

My hands are down in the dirt, they're laying out all the seeds

Imagining all the trees haven't happened yet

Head wandering, pondering different options, I

Could be watering the thoughts that say I'm awesome, why

Do I water the thoughts that say I'm awful, I

Prolly water too much, what about happiness?

Whoa, hey. Life is so chaotic but at least we're not robotic and I got you with me

Okay, can't predict the future but we'll pivot and maneuver when the times ain't pretty

Whoa, hey. Mind is always moving a mile but Ima slow it down for you and your smile like

Okay. Waves are gonna come when they do, so let's step and just groove for a while.

If I was never in control

I could just let it all unroll

[CHORUS- Both Vocals]

We can take it step by step

Baby you and me

In slow motion

Whatever happens next

On to you I’ll keep holding

[Bridge]

[Outro- Michelle]

If I was never in control

I could just let it all unroll

We could take it step by step

Sozin’s Comet

☄️Sozin’s Comet ☄️

[INTRO]

They set it on fire in the name of our nation

Set it on fire in the name of our nation

They set it on fire and then they held hostage to a true education

[VERSE 1]

A space that was meant to be consecrated

Then the ships sailed in, now it’s been indoctrinated

All can unlearn the “supremacy”

The lies they taught were their heresy

Disrespect for the living and spirit

Those who say nothing are just as complicit

[CHORUS 1]

We believe justice delivers peace

We’re not disabled by our grief

With one thousand voices we’ve spoke

To revive balance and hope

We’ve passed down everything we’ve known

Thousands of lifetimes of our growth

We know justice delivers peace

It’s time to choose who you can be

[VERSE 2]

Over time honor’s meaning will change

Nothing about you will be the same

History will recall you by name

Redirect the lightning, your rage

Kill your pride be to free from shame

Honor the person you became

[CHORUS 2]

We believe justice delivers peace

We’re not disabled by our grief

With one thousand voices we’ve spoke

To revive balance and hope

We’ve passed down everything we’ve known

Thousands of lifetimes of our growth

We know justice delivers peace

It’s time to choose who you can be

[BRIDGE]

[CHORUS 3- Gang Vocals]

We believe justice delivers peace

We’re not disabled by our grief

With one thousand voices we’ve spoke

To revive balance and hope

We’ve passed down everything we’ve known

Thousands of lifetimes of our growth

We know justice delivers peace

It’s time to choose who you can be

Behind Glass Walls

I Won’t Die

Subdue my anger like the quiet follows the storm. You treat me like an icicle: melt me 'til I'm warm. Now I'm fried. Flip me over on both sides. You try to burn me. Yeah, I'd like to see you try.

But I won't die. I won't die.

The sun will come out and eventually so will I. Out of my shell that you forced me inside. You try to lure me out so you'll be satisfied. When I turn around, stab my back and cut my pride. I let it bleed out.

I won't die.

Like the flower during winter, I won't die. See the ice patch getting thinner? I won't die. Coming back every spring and ask the sun to revisit life because I won't die.

The Shakes and Other Ghost Stories

Ghost Stories

Here we go again: breathe deep and count to ten. If my heart can beat any louder, it would jump right out of my chest. Right into the Atlantic, right off my island of panic to a place where my soul can take a rest.

I want to break out but I can't lose what I have. Can't venture to the unknown; I'm trapped inside my comfort zone.

Here we go again: these symptoms are my closest friends and they call me often, more often than debt collectors. I collect all the reasons to get the help I need. And the reasons I feel I have to stay are the reasons I want to leave.

I want to break out but I can't lose what I have. Can't venture to the unknown; I'm trapped inside my comfort zone.

I might get really scared. I might try to die. But what if I tried to live? What if I lived to try? Can't leave this place called home. Can't go off to the unknown. Tell me where my body stops and my soul begins.

I want to break out but I can't lose what I have. Can't venture to the unknown; I'm trapped inside my comfort zone.
