I don't like reminiscing the past 'cause it makes me feel like there's no future Try as I might I can't help but feel the plight of the winters that came and went through the dark distant ages When you're young and protected, darkness seems thrilling, exciting, but as you get older it becomes hurtful, too close to home and too near the bone Sunday 3 PM is the most depressing hour of the week My needs are met by those two sets of content distribution concepts In my experience, fantasizing about doing something is a lot more exciting than actually doing it I desperately want something to happen, but everyone's a passive ass It's become very complicated to start a family, which is why a lot of people are really miserable No one wants to follow where I lead, they say I don't know how to live

She couldn't handle me, I couldn't handle her We couldn't handle it, we couldn't handle each other I tried to make it work and make it all OK Tried to see things through and did whatever I could’ve, but You knew I had no choice, you knew I had no chance It couldn't have happened any other way She couldn't handle me, I couldn't handle her We couldn't handle it, we couldn't handle each other She pushed me way too hard, to move out of the dark But the light hurt my eyes, I wished I never had met her She's got the fire and she walks with it I want to forget everything that didn't happen It's always too late The birds on the boards sing songs of dumb days

Fuck Dreams 04:14
Fuck you Fuck me Fuck dreams Fuck love Fuck this You’ve given me tunnel vision Now I’m making strange decisions I feel like some small pet in its cage Banging against the bars to the point of injury So fuck you and fuck me We fuck dreams to fuck love Then fuck this

Combinator 04:28
I want to talk to you Let's talk and make out Then afterwards We can talk some more And make out some more Listen to some music While it plays we can talk And make out, and talk I wanna talk to you We can see a movie Talk about it some And I can hold you tightly Wrap my body around you And I can kiss you And you can kiss me too Climb onto me Let me feel your weight Engulf me in your hair Can we combine? We can combine

Pure Sex 03:37
You know what I want I want to give you pleasure Tell me what you want I’m not gonna tell you what you want So tell me what you want You know what I want I wanna slide my tongue over every inch of your skin I just want to suck your clit and feel you cum over my face I don't wanna be your dog Don't wanna be your toy Don't wanna be your lover I want to be your man I want to be yours
6.
I haven't heard from you in months But we're still together I haven't heard from you in years But we're still together I'll never see you again But we're still together I'll never see you again We'll be together forever

The pleasure is well deserved It comes naturally It cannot be questioned The pleasure is real and it's ours It's perfectly normal It comes naturally The pleasure is well deserved The pleasure is real and it's ours

Any way you turn you know you're gonna get burned 'Cause a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do Cock-blockin', blue-ballin', pussy-whippin', name-callin' Boss-bitchin', hair-splittin', home-wreckin', face-sittin' Cock-blockin', blue-ballin', pussy-whippin', name-callin' Boss-bitchin', nerve wreckin', always talkin', never listen Fake it like a man, you little bitch I wanna see you sweat as you dig your own ditch I know you're weaker than your seven year itch Because you naively hoped that I am not a witch Any way you turn you know you're gonna get burned 'Cause a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do When I climb to the spot this is what I'll say Everybody's shocked, yeah, they're staring at me I've got a tyrant in my pants and I'm not afraid to show it I'm sexist and I know it You're sexist and you know it too

Two lovers entwined pass me by And heaven knows I don't give a fuck anymore I was looking for a snake and then I found a snake And that was just what I was out here for "We are always horny, we are never lonely" I know what I'm missing, I just don't care I never felt it but I know how it feels Did I feel it in my dreams? I never felt it because it's only possible in dreams for me I never felt it but I know how it feels You gotta play a song for me Maybe I felt it only in a dream You've gotta play a song for me Last time I saw you it was pretty sweet You gotta play a song for me I think I’ll see you in another dream There we’ll be so free Only in dreams love is real for us

All shall be absolved Only to ever be resolved How it ends is what it was What never ends never was Everything is an illusion It's just masks all the way down I've already lived forever I must have died a million times before

about

Second installment of songs based on music made in late 2007.

The title "Eastern Bloc" refers to the secondary nature of the album, relating the political dimension of life in Eastern Europe to the personal romantic experience of being "second in line". Also referenced is the "sophomore slump" of music industry jargon, due to the fact that the Palms Voice debut was comprised of "heavy hitters" from the large but limited musical base of the project, thus making "Eastern Bloc" less-than-stellar by design.

The idea was to transcend possible preconceptions or expectations about the album by incorporating them into its conceptual framework.
