When you have certain experiences
You respond with various emotions
Stimulus responses
Rage, is the response to the primary stimulus
A thwart; something interfering with our
Behavior, or actions
And, the emotional response to love
Is usually the result of
A show of affection, or favors
And so, many things and people
Cause us to respond emotionally
And in general that's good
Though there are many factors involved in a personality
And, a balance of emotions is important
To a well-rounded personality
Often times, I'll pull down all the shades
Like I used to, just lay down, around
For five or six hours, just alone
Just lay in that bed, and get something back
Just being away from people
Is one of the most marvelous fulfillments
A man like me can have
But emotions out of control, well
Let's take a look at a slice of everyday life
To understand how some stimuli can bring about various emotional responses
What might happen to you? Or to me?
Or to (desuCORE!)?
[Pre-Chorus]
Fear is the response to loud noises
Or loss of support
[Chorus: desuCORE!]
Did you forget?
We spent years, happy times
I'm gone? Just like that?
I've ran out of time in your mind
It's the absence of humanity
It's a fulfillment so graceful
That even God would understand if he invented them
He'd probably do-do-do-do-do-do-do

midnight
01:38
|
|

Another day, another waste
Laying in bed, I've had no taste of
Some food in some days, is that okay?
Would you shun me if we were still dates?
We miss you and what we do and
We miss the times we swooned over you
Why couldn't we just treat you the right way?
Make you happy for another day
I watch the stars fading away
All our memories no longer spark flames
I don't remember you, yet I miss you
Just how far have we fallen away from you?
Can you and your gorgeous face just
Leave and stop tainting our headspace?
Every day I sit in pain as
The thoughts of you won't go away
It's been months, these thoughts are full force
What if I hadn't driven us off course?
What if I just treated you right?
Would we still be calling at midnight?

STRANDED
02:04
|
|
||
I'm just standing here, stranded
Take my photo, I'm candid
I'm just pissed I invested
All my time into your antics, classic
Stranded
In my mind, a big ant hill
Thoughts are running fast, frantic, fact check, right past it
I'm just standing here, stranded
Take my photo I'm candid
I guess it's all a big question
Are we getting that time back?

million miles away
03:18
|
|

Can you see it in my eyes?
The quick buildup of tears
As you say goodbye
Can you see it in my face?
The way I quickly missed you
Already we're a million miles away

Someone's always on our back, snooping, always keeping track
Paranoia central we're shaking from the Adderall
Wish I got to know the Tumblr space, would've been right at my place
We have access to it all, Twitter's got a callout ball
Dodge before it nails you in the face
Dodged a bullet, okay thanks
E-date's got something to say
Sure hope we aren't parting ways
Hyperpop's what keeps us sane
When thoughts of life just want to stay
Who's gonna join my Twitter space?
I just never show my face
You never need to when your friends are on the Internet
Skype and Minecraft, Discord hangout
Redpilled, based, and VRChat
You forgot you're real, when the realization settles in
Remember you have YouTube, watch 10-hour Nyan Cat
Could you leave our head? We need some space
Two is enough, okay thanks
Too much gloop inside our brain
Leave our tears for some other day
Skype VC, you're everything
Don't wanna talk, just wanna hang
Animal Jam clan RPs
Black spiked collar, okay please
E-date just won't leave my head, he'll stay rent-free until I'm dead
He was way too perfect, always making me blush super red
Had to mess it up and now I can't remember what he said
I need to go to therapy, too many thoughts flooding my head
Could you leave our head? We need some space
Two is enough, okay thanks
Too much gloop inside our brain
Leave our tears for some other day
Skype VC, you're everything
Don't wanna talk, just wanna hang
Animal Jam clan RPs
Black spiked collar, okay please
Don't remember anything
Remember your sharp doggy fangs
Make my hand bleed, bright blue veins
Gusher blood, floss candy brains
Minecraft Bedwars, rush the base
Godbridge baby, that's the way
Poss and bunny, super gay
Soft and fuzzy squishy face

rust
03:28

|

Think I might be going crazy
All my thoughts are feeling too hazy
Everything feels corn maze-y
I don't know where to go, I'm lost
Oh, why do you keep on lying?
The thought of no more you is frightening
I wanted to stay by your side till we both ran out of time
You slipped away
Out of grasp
Out of touch
Everything surrounding me is slowly turning to rust
Oh, why'd we have to rush things?
We could've just taken our time
Oh, why'd I have to crush things?
I warned you so many times
of both my life-sucking fangs
They'll sink right in and hold on tight
'Till you feel yourself crashing
Gone was the romance high
How am I still standing?
There rolls away your golden ring
Never taking my mind off things
Release my paws from these cuffs and chains
There's countless people standing
Not one of them has your pretty face
My brain has a scar from your branding
You haven't made me insane, but I'm the closest thing

HIVEMIND
02:57

She said she don't wanna take time, and it's alright
But the way the sky matches her eyes, oh, what a sight
She said she saw my heart and the way it fuels my insights
I don't wanna tell her I'm a hivemind, because
Sometimes I just wanna be on my own
In hindsight, should've just put away the phone
It's alright, I'll work it out when I'm all alone
It's our night, and it's time to make a show
In your mind, there's always too much hope
And it's my job, to get you to stop takin' tokes of that
Big pipe, can see your ego in a telescope
It's high time to make some new horoscopes
And I sit by, watching days tick by
And your new job is takin' too much time out of
Your time, how do you even cope with this
New life? I think it's time we change the channel, 'cause
In this new world there's too much going on and I
Can't keep up with the current news and Netflix shows
How do you expect me to keep you on track all the time?
Expect me to make sure you're sleeping at the right time
In this hivemind there's too much going on and I
Can't keep up with my friends and it really shows
Driving around and I'm wasting gas all the time
Accidentally cutting the grass at the wrong time
Oh, you're high-class? Take this flint and steel and light up all this
Tallgrass, brushfire, put it out, dumping this
Whole glass, it's too late, it's spreading all across the
Landmass, should've paid attention in class
She said it's just too hard finding new ways to learn about me
The ground is too hard to stick in this golf tee
Three years ago you laid in this grass next to me
And now it's all up in flames, this is bad, highkey
Would you forgive me?
If I said all of this was putting me in misery
Would you forget all the mistakes I made over some tea?
Under the plum tree, when we turned 18
And I just can't stop remembering the way you looked at me
Clinging to the thoughts, I want you to be my ecstasy
Wondering if you still remember me
If you still remember me
In this new world there's too much going on and I
Can't keep up with the current news and Netflix shows
How do you expect me to keep you on track all the time?
Expect me to make sure you're sleeping at the right time
In this hivemind there's too much going on and I
Can't keep up with my friends and it really shows
Driving around and I'm wasting gas all the time
Accidentally cutting the grass at the wrong time

01:41

Lost in regret I feel so deeply
I can't seem to find a means of ground
Lost in regret I feel so deeply
I can't seem to find a means of ground
Hear, regret
Say the words
Don't cry, don't cry, it won't end
Pain will always be my friend
Don't cry, don't cry, it won't end
Pain will always be my friend
Don't cry, don't cry, it won't end
Pain will always be my friend
Don't cry, don't cry, it won't end
Pain will always be my friend

You never got to see me
Out of my head
We never got to see
What I would've said
I miss the days when we would
Lay in my bed
Reminiscing on times we
Had in the past, in the past
(Oooh)
I miss the days when you
Wouldn't say that you were
Better off dead
Oh, better off dead
How should I feel now that your
Wish is granted?
Should I be glad or sad that
You never got the credit
That you deserved
Oh, you deserved so greatly?
I guess I'm glad that you
Got your last wish

In my head
Pockets full of lead
When will it end?
Oh, cryptids, we're all dead
Eyes and shadows down the stairway
Eyes blur as the rope frays
Shivers down my spine as the world sways
You and I are going two separate ways
Eyes and shadows down the stairway
Eyes blur as the rope frays
Shivers down my spine as the world sways
You and I are going two separate ways
In my head
Oh, pockets full of lead
When will it end?
Oh, cryptids, we're all dead
Eyes and shadows down the stairway
Eyes blur as the rope frays
Shivers down my spine as the world sways
You and I are going two separate ways
(In my head)
(Oh, pockets full of lead)
(When will it end?)
(Oh, cryptids, we're all dead)

ANGELITE
01:49
|
|

Ay!
Whatchu doin' tonight?
Not letting anyone go out and step on my pride
Stepping carefully 'cause these heels are too high
Wanna push me down? Go ahead and try
Shatter like Angelite
Not tryna pick a fight
Just annoying you to fuel your anger and spite
'Cause you never give up, like Jesus Christ
You're so uptight, waiting for your rage to ignite
Shatter like Angelite
You're mad!
This turmoil is a constant
(When will you just get your mind off of it?)
I miss how things used to be when
You weren't so obnoxious and full of it
I'll be glad!
When you're dead and out of it
I'm tearing you apart, yeah, bit by bit
I need you to shut up and stop throwing your fit
I'm sick of it
Hahaha!
Not this tonight
Not letting anyone go out and step on my pride
Stepping carefully 'cause these heels are too high
Wanna push me down? Go ahead and try
Shatter like Angelite
Not tryna pick a fight
Just annoying you to fuel your anger and spite
'Cause you never give up, like Jesus Christ
You're so uptight, waiting for your rage to ignite
Shatter like Angelite
You're mad!

Why would I wanna live my life in monochrome?
It's gone sour, lost the tone
They're all gone, I'm all alone
Just look out, I'm crying-prone
Really tired of all this garbage
Setting me out of my zone
Never getting calls on my phone
They've got the shine, they're made of chrome
Should I go to sleep and leave?
God, this headache, some Aleve
May help me through the day, but metaphorical migraines
Swallow up my insides and have me feeling numb every day
Fuzzy feelings, I'm okay
TV screen, I feel okay
Scanlines all around my face
Make me feel like a disgrace
Lose my thoughts like every day
But it's fine, i feel okay
My leg goes numb as the string frays
Gorgot the bed I used to lay in

I can't seem to find a way out
Endless maze surrounding me around
Stuck forever in this town
My feet feel disconnected from the ground
Oh, can you see it in my eyes?
The endless dread all the time?
They fought again but that's fine
I'll find a way out this time
(I can't seem to find a way out)
(Endless maze surrounding me around)
(Stuck forever in this town)
(My feet feel disconnected from the ground)
(Oh, can you see it in my eyes?)
(The endless dread all the time?)
(They fought again but that's fine)
(I'll find a way out this time)
Too much water in this vase
Overflowing, and its my cause
All these flowers drowned in this pond
But I smile, I keep my façade
Oh, can you see it in my eyes?
The endless dread all the time?
They died again but that's fine
I'll find a way out this time

Every time you talk to me, a cheese grater scrapes on my brain
And everything you say to me goes in one ear and out the end
Wanna stop hearing from you but I'm just too polite to ask
Every convo with you is just another brainless task
When will you leave me be?
Your mental footprint's a lobotomy
When will your red eyes see
All my time ain't free-e-e
Leaving me texts till 3
Let me clean all this debris first
When will you leave me be?
Quit spreading your potpourri
Let me go, you're toxic
Take a pH test, you're just carbon monoxious
Setting off alarms and you're making me nauseous
Keep my mind off it, you're running for office
Head on your chest, mental pours out like a faucet
You think I have time for you?
God, please, now I've got other plans
Going to the dance and making sure I satisfy my friends
All of them are better than you despite every chance you had
I still don't hear you walking out the door with your white checkered Vans
Listen up, I'm sick of you, I've never even said that yet
Which part of "I don't wanna talk right now" do you not even get?
I just wanna move on with my life and let myself forget
But you're so (CORE! CORE!) stressful, make me wanna taste a cigarette
When will you leave me be?
Your mental footprint's a lobotomy
When will your red eyes see
All my time ain't free-e-e
Leaving me texts till 4
You make yourself such a chore (desuCORE!)
When will you leave me be?
Quit spreading your potpourri

requiem
02:20

|

When will you see that it's me
But we don't know who is me
When will you start to see
You should take this seriously
When will you realize
That our day was not "okay"
That we lie to ourselves
So that we can still feel safe
With ourselves as we think things
That to the world we'd never tell
That one day we'll all sink under
To the endless depths of Hell
And how long do we have to wait
'Till we never think again?
It's been too long, death can catch me
'Till then I'll just pretend
We're not here, we never were here
Things are better off that way
That we'll never have to suffer through
Another dreadful day
Every day feels the same
Except the downsides build up more
Every day gives us less reasons
To keep going and to stay
When we dissociate
And forget who we ever were
And what our face looks like, now tell me
Why's that such a soothing world?
World of darkness, thoughts surround us
And visions make up our space
Dark night meadows, purple colors
In this fantastical place
Where we close our eyes
Everyone else thinks that we're asleep
Honestly, with this world around us
We're just in our escape
