WOMB

A seed in mother and I chose that space for me
Little does she know it's free, ooh, yeah
I'm undercover, as they wait for joy, I cry
On a mission, learn and die, ooh, yeah
And I know my brother
He'll make the journey later on
Conversations in the cosmos, yeah
And it's all a game now
But once I'm in the world, it's lost
Memories gone to evolve, ooh, yeah
Merging cells and flesh
I'm baby building all my insides, right to see the future
Right before my eyes I know
What's coming, what's coming
In the womb, let me out now, I'm safe and I'm sound
Cut the cord, I'm coming
Out the blue, belly water too hot and cold
Through with it, oh, now she's birthing
Feeling alive, the closer that I get to my life
I'm pushing out the center, the core
I'm sweating through the flower no more, no more
All of the planning, yet I still feel unprepared
Kick and screaming 'cause I'm scared, ooh, yeah
And I know she suffers contractions of hell and death
Eyes are bloody screaming out, ooh, yeah
Merging spirit, mind, and body
Building all my insides, right to see the future
Right before my eyes I know
What's coming, what's coming
In the womb, let me out now, I'm safe and I'm sound
Cut the cord, I'm coming
Out the blue, belly water too hot and cold
Through with it, oh, now she's birthing
Feeling alive, the closer that I get to my life
I'm pushing out the center, the core
I'm sweating through the flower no more, no more
Life is death, is life is death, is life, is

POWDER

Powder, pow-pow-powder
Powder, pow-pow-powder
Don't wanna know where you go when you aren't around
I'd rather stay naive, too much to believe
Blood fallin' out from your nose and I'm wonderin' how
You glamorize your pain, wear it on display
And I know it's a cry for help, go help yourself
I opened a million doors, you never go
It's past point of no return, when will we learn?
Alert me when this shit is over
Lying loud (through it all)
Cut your face (from the fall)
When you're hurt (who'd you call?)
I can't answer now
Spent the rent (on a kite)
One-way street (to the scythe)
Clean it up (watch it die)
It's yours to decide
Powder, pow-pow-powder
Powder, pow-pow-powder
Show me a picture you paint of someone else
Lived a double life, wish I was surprised
Eyes rollin' back to your head, and I'm wonderin' how
I recognize your face, put it all to waste
And I know it's a cry for help, go help yourself
I opened a million doors, you never go
It's past point of no return, when will we learn?
Alert me when this shit is over
Lying loud (through it all)
Cut your face (from the fall)
When you're hurt (who'd you call?)
I can't answer now
Spent the rent (on a kite)
One way street (to the scythe)
Clean it up (watch it die)
It's yours to decide
Powder, pow-pow-powder
Powder, pow-pow-powder
Powder, pow-pow-powder
Powder, pow-pow-powder
And I know it's a cry for help, go help yourself
I opened a million doors, you never go
It's past point of no return, when will we learn?
Alert me when this shit is over
Lying loud (through it all)
Cut your face (from the fall)
When you're hurt (who'd you call?)
I can't answer now
Spent the rent (on a kite)
One way street (to the scythe)
Clean it up (watch it die)
It's yours to decide
Powder, pow-pow-powder
Powder, pow-pow-powder
Powder, pow-pow-powder
Powder, pow-pow-powder

Pluto

I'm hauling an outdated show
Help me let go
The walls around me are so close
Caving in, oh no
Some other friends that I thought were forever
And now wanna sever the ties
The seats have been spotted, I'm no longer doubting
I think that it's finally time
Pluto, destroy me
Kill me off slowly
I'll bathe in my ashes
Rise like a phoenix
Show me who I am becoming
Pluto, transform me
Turn off my lonely
I'll sit with my silence
Fix all my conflict
Show me the demons I'm hiding
I'm turning to expired routes
Help me move on
There's nothing in this tired town
For me no more
What once was a home is a hell I can't manage
So send me to packin' it up
Everything's blurry, I don't wanna worry
The pain from this growing is rough, oh
Pluto, destroy me
Kill me off slowly
I'll bathe in my ashes
Rise like a phoenix
Show me who I am becoming
Pluto, transform me
Turn off my lonely
I'll sit with my silence
Fix all my conflict
Show me the demons I'm hiding
Show me the demons I'm hiding
Show me the demons I'm hiding
Show me the demons I'm hiding (Pluto, destroy me)
Show me the demons I'm hiding

MILK OF THE SIRENS

Drink from the leche of sirens
Summon the sailors in town
Strangle the fear of deciding
Which one's deserving to drown
Engraved in our memory, the harm that was done
Our mothers, the witches they banished and burned
All of our sisters were killed and abused
By sword-swinging men who would always accuse
The worst of a woman who fights for our right
To be where we belong at the front of the line
Tired of silence and being polite
Your legs turn to shimmering scales in the night
Drink from the leche of sirens
Summon the sailors in town
Strangle the fear of deciding
Which ones deserving to drown
Don't feel bad when these fuckers all drown
Let them drown
Let them drown
Let them drown
Tenderness worn on the skin like a dress
Nurture these men, pull them out of their mess
They steal the resources, destroy all the land
Belittle the power of the feminine hand
The milk from the rivers of every moon
Cradle you tight like you're back in the womb
Bury their souls in a cove by the light
Celestial dip all that ego and pride
Drink from the leche of sirens
Summon the sailors in town
Strangle the fear of deciding
Which ones deserving to drown
Let them drown
Let them drown
Let them drown
Nothing wrong with a little havoc
It's fun when shit hits the fan
So guillotine their heads by shouting
Cut 'em off, leave waters red
Nothing wrong with a little havoc
It's fun when shit hits the fan
So guillotine their heads by shouting
Cut 'em off, leave water's red
Nothing wrong with a little havoc (drink from the leche of sirens)
It's fun when shit hits the fan
So guillotine their heads by shouting (summon the sailors in town)
Cut 'em off, leave water's red
Nothing wrong with a little havoc (strangle the fear of deciding)
It's fun when shit hits the fan
So guillotine their heads by shouting (which ones deserving to drown)
Cut 'em off, leave water's red
(Don't feel bad when these fuckers all drown)
