Blaze By 02:02
Bullets blaze by But ya can’t lift your head Stare down so scared That ya wish ya were dead Pulled in By the haunt Of your soul Dragged By the rags Of you old Pulled in By the haunt Of your soul Dragged By the rags Of you Bullets blaze by But ya ain’t lookin’ up Stare down at the ground Until your brains erupt Pulled in The haunt Of your soul Dragged down By the rags Of you old Pulled in The haunt Of your soul Dragged down By the rags Of you old….

Fatal fashionista tears off her dress Three screaming demons pop out of her chest Her head hits the tile, says “fuck you, you’re next” Photographers explode when cameras refract This is science project runaway gone wrong This is human hatred stalking in a thong She ate all the carcasses, she’s got the urge She’s had her binge and now it’s time to purge She’s got three heads She’s got three heads She’s got three heads Another on the floor She’s got three heads She’s got three heads She’s got three heads Another on the floor Scream queen Ghidorah tears through the show She’s puking human chum in the toilet bowl There’s only one thing that there’s left to do Hair and make-up for her next photo shoot She’s got three heads She’s got three heads She’s got three heads Another on the floor She’s got three heads She’s got three heads She’s got three heads And she’s come back for more…

I’ll be your failure I’ll be every mistake you’ve made I’ll be your failure I’ll be the story they tell to make the children behave I’ll be your failure So that you don’t have to be yourself I’ll be your failure And don’t worry, I won’t ask for help A failure in the eyes of the lord In the mouths of the crowd In the loud of the sound In a box in the ground Don’t turn around Don’t turn around Don’t turn around Don’t turn around I’ll be you’re failure A phoenix collapsing in ash I’ll be your failure A thousand miles an hour, then CRASH I’ll be your failure I’ll be everything you need me to be I’ll be your failure Paint your sins in a portrait of me A failure in the eyes of the lord In the mouths of the crowd In the loud of the sound In a box in the ground Don’t turn around Don’t turn around Don’t turn around Don’t turn around I’ll be your failure (repeat)….

Open the windows Open the doors Open every box I want a way in If something should happen Fly in and out Taking tiny crumbs And I’ll glow the brightest in the sky And I’ll catch all the smaller flies And I’ll glow the brightest in the sky And I’ll take away the things that make you cry Open your insides Then tear them out Open every box I want to be you If something should happen Fly in and out Making tinier crumbs And I’ll glow the brightest in the sky And I’ll catch all the smaller flies And I’ll glow the brightest in the sky And I’ll take away the things that make you cry I’ll take away the things that make you cry….

Johnny drove to the bank To get himself a loan The bank gave Johnny a loan So he drove to the car lot He gave them his old car And the money from the loan And they sold him new a car And he drove it all the way home Johnny got a loan Johnny got a loan Johnny got a loan Johnny got a loan….

Disguise 02:34
Sick nostalgia sneaks around in the back An image appears and the instincts attack Some details obscured, but the others are clear Comfort not found in a future of fear Was it really real? Am I buying lies That sell myself A past disguised Was it really real? Am I buying lies That sell myself A past disguised Amplifications and pains minimized Incomplete feelings of a made-up time Friends in caricature, did they even exist? And what about me? What about me? Was it really real? Am I buying lies That sell myself A past disguised Was it really real? Am I buying lies That sell myself A past disguised….

What can I say? You never ran away You just said, “Baby, scare me some more” And who could’ve guessed that you could love a mess Who would take you to the thirteenth floor? Now it’s night time, all the time Let’s get sick together Yeah it’s our time, all the time In the gray, in the blue, whenever Now it’s night time, all the time Let’s get sick together Yeah it’s our time, all the time In the gray, in the blue, whenever And they’ll try to say that we’re the ones who fake Cuz they’re vanilla, normal, and bored “There’s nothing left”, they’ll cry, dry and dead inside While we make out on the concrete floor Now it’s night time, all the time Let’s get sick together Yeah it’s our time, all the time In the gray, in the blue, whenever Now it’s night time, all the time Let’s get sick together Yeah it’s our time, all the time In the gray, in the blue, whenever Now it’s night time Night time (repeat).... Now it’s nigh

Rimmer World 01:26
I am the image of royalty And loyalty doesn’t exist Hangin’ around forever and ever And I’m just eternally bored We all look the same in Rimmer World We all talk the same in Rimmer World We all think the same in Rimmer World We all fuck the same in Rimmer World Hell of my own making Wearing the bonehead brand We all look the same in Rimmer World We all talk the same in Rimmer World We all think the same in Rimmer World We all fuck the same in Rimmer World This doesn’t kill me or make me stronger The light of body keeps me hard Grinding my balls forever and ever There is no honor among me We all look the same in Rimmer World We all talk the same in Rimmer World We all think the same in Rimmer World We all fuck the same in Rimmer World Hell of my own making Wearing the bonehead brand We all look the same in Rimmer World We all talk the same in Rimmer World We all think the same in Rimmer World We all fuck the same in Rimmer World….

The Taste 02:00
Network 23 Slipping society Television mindset Industrial technology The taste Just isn’t the same The taste But it’s so familiar The taste Just isn’t the same The taste But it’s so familiar The taste (repeat) The taste Just isn’t the same The taste But it’s so familiar The taste Just isn’t the same The taste But it’s so familiar The taste Commercial corporation Advertising pitch Celebrity endorsement Subliminal itch….

Scaffolds dancin’ like daffodils For drones from the hobby store Crowds gather ‘round and sing in the sound Of bells crashing through the floor “This mystery beauty is something I saw in a movie before Wasn’t paying attention My shoes were sticking to the floor” Victor Hugo saw something And it ain’t there anymore Everyone took pictures Sharing them online We don’t need these memories We can keep ‘em in a box The box was in a building And the building is a loss Smoke travelled up to satellites Their eyes watered down like rain Drizzle the electric pinball bounce Rollin’ glowin’ down the drain An old man felt the faintest sense Of something he’d known as a child Faint painted image he barely knew But that image struck him blind Victor Hugo saw something And it ain’t there anymore Everyone took pictures Sharing them online We don’t need these memories We can keep ‘em in a box The box was in a building And the building is a ghost The building is a ghost….

I’ve got a headache and I can’t fix my life The fire escape it rattles with the hows of the night Just cut out all the bad parts with the mind of a knife Deadly, it does its duty but it can’t heal the blind (Can’t heal the blind) The purple dots and the crawling designs Magenta lights don’t watch where they fly Drying out and the plastic it cracks And the shadow blobs they lunge and they laugh (They’re laughing at me) The heat outside says I better stay inside This cocoon is dirty, but so is my mind Sweating out my soul as my body cries Fly into to the sun as my body As my body dies….

about

Originally to be titled "The Last Album", this was to be the 3rd Tiger Helicide album. Recording for The Lost Album began in 2019 and continued off and on through 2023, interrupted frequently by the global pandemic and various other tragedies and mishaps. Very different versions of "Blaze By", I'll Be Your Failure", and "I Gotta Headache" appear on what ended up being our 3rd album, Desensitized. He hope you enjoy this: our 4th album that was supposed to be our 3rd album.
