Coarse Hairs 03:16
Coarse hairs and raised skin Sweat drips and falls in Every orifice throbs and pleads Animals bark, bite, and need Nails dig; draw blood Rough hands; dirt and mud Smeared, blackened chapped lips Drooling pools and juice drips Exchange, react Exchange, react A part of you I won't give back Taking, stealing, making it mine Destroying it Leaving nothing behind
2.
Now What? 03:26
​So what? So what? So what? So what? So deprived, too late it finally arrived Watch it slide, right through my fingers and die For what? For what? So contrived, disasters that we've survived Can't confide, he's gone, bye bye Now what? Now what? Now what? Now what?
3.
For someone who could crush the world I really feel so small The iron fist that I've been carrying Starts to really weigh a ton At any second I can change Like a chameleon Unable to control my surroundings I'm paralyzed by the comings and goings Of a world I fucking hate But I want so badly to love My veins cry out They keep on needing My skin is tough From lack of touch My lungs leak air we could have shared So why weren't you even there Time mocks me as I stare Into the dead and dying air I tried real hard To give those things up That fill me That fill me up Until I'm whole Until my soul Until my soul can feel enough
4.
Never getting what I need Too scared to ask though inside I plead Alone and cornered Always traveling Never settling. Comfort is a word I don't know Through burnt asphalt and frigid snow I would probably dance with god Just to curse him for forgetting a step
5.
Poison 04:09
I've picked my poison I thought i had a few Over the years I bought some time To change, abuse, pick, and choose What will kill me faster? What will make me live forever ? The times I cry and times I smile Interchangeable; few and far between I am not the one who decides What they even mean I am not the one who decides What they even mean even mean How comforting it is to let go of the wheel How sad and oh so joyous to know that I can't feel I want to be immortal I want to die tomorrow I want to hug my family I want to disappear I'm sorry I could never be The trophy child; always last place Is that why I am dead inside ? What am I trying to replace? I will still smile tomorrow When I clean up what I left behind And pretend that it's a new day As if it's different As if it's alright

Broken Necks 02:47
You look so sad I want to dry your tears I'll even lend my hand My shoulder sleeve and ears For fragile flesh and bones The words I hear and turn to stone The smiles fade; anger it turns My heart: I can't admit it burns I break my neck five days a week When I turn away from what I see It hurts it soothes it's what I need When I feel alone When I feel at home When I have a chance To be the one who knows I don't know what it means To live this sad charade But I'll be there when it seeks A friend whose dues are paid In the end I'm still alone But that's fine I like the simple life I loosen my belt and situate It's not like it's gonna change And in the end I'm still alright
7.
I want it all but when I have it I want nothing it's just a habit To take and ask and never know What to do with the seeds I sow I want it all but when I have it I want nothing it's just a habit To take and ask and never know What to do with the seeds I sow Or what to make of what they grow Drowning sorrows; no tomorrow's Waking up to beg and borrow A useless waste a mess of space A smear of lipstick; a pretty face I'll leave my shit all on your floor And leave you nothing at the door Tell me how to live Tell me how to gives I want to feel it Really feel it The thing I've heard of once before But I'll just head straight for the door It's easier that way I guess Easier to make a mess So sorry for your troubles But I think it's for the best
8.
Multiplex 03:13
Stabbing knives Widowed wives Eating bowels Hungry growls Blades gliding Needles plunging Stripping skin Bodies purging Being nothing Breathing envy Fucking best friends loving enemies Giving everything is easy When your face says it means nothing I never have a word to say You silence me and it's okay I'd almost rather die inside Than be alone and be alright All these words are all the same So are you You kill me anyway You don't even know it But my valves are dry They heave and cave And I hoped that you would heal me But this rattle is familiar It is harsh and cold And it feels the same
9.
Losing It 04:58
When it's going down I can't help but feel down Everything was great But losing it, it hurt When I thought about it I was looking through rose -tinted glasses It's all that I could think about And losing it, it hurt It hurt When I was a bit younger I had a powerful hunger Nothing would be perfect Until I found someone But someone never came And it seemed kind of lame But it's a hidden blessing I'm stronger now than ever When it's going down I can't help but feel down Everything was great But losing it, it hurt When I thought about it I was looking through rose -tinted glasses It's all that I could think about And losing it, it hurt It hurt

3 AM 04:07
Once a month my good friend calls me Not to talk, or see how I've been But to take 3AM somewhere new Make the time have some value This hour is as dark a sky As the black inky stains down each eye My worth is matched by the dialtone I listen a second longer As if it will whisper an apology For my dignity; a eulogy A eulogy I do this again, I come as called And I'm panting like a dog Who's starved and beat And sick in heat But never does it make me feel complete My worth is matched my the dialtone I listen a second longer As if it will whisper an apology For my dignity; a eulogy
11.
Springtime 03:17
I'll eat myself alive I cry and ache and strive If I cut my skin would you fit in Should I taste the salt of you again It's a double edged sword Wanting to have the world If it means you in it Ripping my nails off Smiling at the ground Screaming beating Myself; it goes around I'm dying inside I'm dying inside Because you make me whole And what that means I don't fucking know So for now I'll just stare At this big gaping hole The one I rip in my own soul My stained eyelashes They glue together It burns and it stings But it's still you I smile at the ground Because you're around If that makes me nothing Then together were something.
12.
Heavy 03:34
No one loved me like you did No one lied to me like you did When I died inside you said it was alright When my blood turned brown I felt alive A man on the street begged me for change My father cried today it's all the same I wish I'd never miss your touch The pinch the romantic lust No one loved me like you did I thought I could find what you gave me I feel everything now and it kills me Turn it off flick the switch It was so easy then To sweat and shake And anticipate That it would all just go away I don't have that now I just have the world It weighs me down and hurts my hands I drop it on the ground It shatters and it's all the same Id like to rest a while Because To feel the crevices in an arm When they don't want me Hurts more than anything Because I know that you Always did
13.
She don't believe you, she don't believe you She wants to leave you, she wants to leave you
14.
I would shake hands with the devil Then forget his name a second after (Repeated) I mastered a trick to disappear As if I never was even here Never even here But there's no audience to give me applause Just the leftover and forgotten Corpse of what once was I mastered a trick to disappear As if I never was even here Never even here

about

Almost a year in the making, It's Easier To Make A Mess is A MARC Train Home's first full-length. It is also our first well-thought-out, and most challenging record. The four of us put our heads together to find common grounds in our musical upbringings and created a cohesive work that goes from heavy rocking, to light-hearted and upbeat sounds, closing with the darkest and noisiest tracks. We hope you will enjoy this 50-minute trip through our imaginations.
