When you try to complicate. Its getting hard to navigate. Another move to contemplate. And you won't negotiate. It's all designed to Irritate. And the sun it radiates. I'm trying I'm trying I'm trying Im trying Over here, I need a picture I need some water i need another piece of paper I need attention I need affection I need to know if you're still with me. I'm trying I'm trying You're lying You're lying Over here I need a picture I want some water Stop laughing at me Just say you love me. I'm trying I'm trying You're lying I'm dying Over here I'm trying I'm trying You're lying I'm dying Go away.

Overlook 05:28
What's that voice The one that tells me how to make a new choice Time to think I need a million years cuz Im on the brink Go up the stairs The overlook is where you finds out who cares Look down below The rocks and river tell your mind where to go Oh yeah Flying away I need to take some time to think what to say It's all gonna change I never wanted things to be rearranged It's all your fault I never wanted any of this assault Where is your book I want the page you wrote on your overlook Oh yeah Where is your voice The one that told you how to make a bad choice Take a deep breath I'll hang you over and Ill scare you to death I'm not gona lose The voice inside my head too me what to chose Afraid of heights There's not a single thing about this that's right oh yeah Whats that voice The one that tells me how to make a new choice Go up the stairs The overlook is where you find out who cares Look down below The rocks and river tell your mind where to go Take a deep breath I'll hang you over and 'Ill scare you to death oh yeah

Drive 03:56
Why do I drive? Well I think that that's a very very interesting question I think I drive a lot of times just to get away Just to get away from everything and everyone and everything that's bothering you under the sun Everything that's right and everything that's wrong. Maybe I just drive just to make another song Who knows. Never really can tell. Sometimes you might be driving straight into heaven. Sometimes you might be driving straight into hell. And there's always someone behind it. Really. Always. There's always someone who sent you on your way and made you get in that car and go away It's crazy. It's always crazy. It's always for some inexplicable reason, you know? And nothing that anyone can say, or do, and nothing that can really help you. Not anymore. And you're too far gone. You get in the car and you drive and you drive and you drive. And then you drive some more. Aimlessly just driving away and wasting gas. And sometimes it's just what you have to do. I mean really think about it. You're sort of saving lives out there aren't you? I mean there's a lot of lives out there that need to be saved. And by you just taking a driving your car and going away, who knows, you may have saved a whole bunch of people. And nobody will ever really know will they? And no one will ever really understand that just because you got in your car and drove you may have saved someone... or everyone. You may have saved the entire world. Just because you had a few minutes to just drive. Chillout, calm down. And think about whether that person is really worth the effort. Whether any of it is worth the effort And you may never know. No one will ever know. All they see is a car that's passing by the hundred miles an hour. And someone without a smile on their face behind the wheel. In that screaming fast automobile. I guess that's why I... I guess that's why I drive. I never really thought about it, but yeah... I guess that's why I drive. And I've been doing it for years .

I saw your eyes And you made me smile For a little while I was falling in love I saw your eyes And they touched my mind Although it took a while I was falling in love I was falling in love I saw your eyes (I saw your eyes, I saw your eyes) And you made me cry (and you made me cry, and you made me cry) And for a little while (a little while, a little while) I was falling in love I was falling in love Falling in love Falling in love Falling in love Falling in love

Hello? Hello. Im sorry to tell you The people surrounding you are an audience to a circus side show People that are your friends will not be your friends forever You must know that everyone will break your heart I know this hurts, but things are going to hurt all the time I need to tell you, you'll lose the things that mean a lot to you and people...you'll lose them too No one will tell you, you're going to be tired all the time You must know, there are people who want to see you fail I'm sorry to tell you that everyone will leave Your friends are temporary You've been expected to take the wrong path I need you to understand that happiness is an illusion Please listen when I tell you, you can't really count on anyone I need you to understand that everyone only wants to hear themselves No one will stay forever You can't count on people when you need them Please listen when I tell you, they're going to break your heart They'll talk about you when you leave the room Im sorry to tell you The person you love may not love you That person isn't good enough You won't be able to stand much longer When you get up you're going to get knocked down again One more thing.. They can't kill you.. I won't let them.

about

Recorded in-between shows during the 2016/2017 run, "whatever." is the 4th release from 13-Monsters. It is as much a story of personal reflection as it is the general feeling and attitude of the world we live in today.
All inhibitions and guards were removed for this album. The rules were scrapped. The correct path was left and a decision was made to do exactly what the album name implies....whatever.
We hope you enjoy this album.
Whatever.
