Cold Reader
Im thinking that Cold Reader is about a relationship. It sounds like Corey is saying that a girlfriend is killing him mentally. He says he cant fight he anymore, but he knows he'll always want her back, "Ill open up my soul..." The start of every verse, "stay away from who i am" and "stop.. i know your goddamn game." The game is her leaving him, then wanting him back when and only when she says so. And he has realized what shes doing and now he is standing up for himself, "NO! I WONT! I CANT! NOT ANYMORE! ONE MORE TIME AND I THINK I'LL FUCKING DIE!"

Choose
Corey is not only mad at people this time, but also mad at himself. Weather this was a girl he was trying to impress, or just a group of friends. He is asking them to remember the times that he acted like someone he wasnt, just so they would like him. But then he got pissed. Realizing that he needs to be himself. They want him to be, "soulless" they want to "break him" so he says "stop your fucking nonsence." He has come to realize that doing that is bullshit and hes not doing it any longer. I think the 'Choose' at the end of the song is saying, Choose to accept me for who i am, or FUCK OFF.

Blue Study
Blue Study sounds like it would have something to do with a realtionship also. It sounds as if it took him close to the step of death. He continuously says, "it doesnt matter" and "i dont need this." I think he is saying that nothing else matters anymore, and that he doesnt need this anymore, never wanted it. I think what he is refering to about never wanting/needing, is life. He is sick of life and loosing. When he says he wants to be 'SAFE!'. He wants all his feelings to go away. He doesnt want to feel anything because theres not one good feeling in his body. And with all of the hatefull feelings gone, and no one there to hurt him, he would feel safe.

Idle Hands
It just seems like am angry song. Corey is implying that he is basically invincible. That no one can hurt him. He has already been through everything in his life, been through the worst points and now nothing can harm him. Been there, done that, put up with everything. The Chorus is telling people who look at him to really look inside. Look under the stone cold flesh ("peel back the layers") and see what he really holds inside and see who he really is.

Orchids
I think this is one of those songs that refers to people that Corey has known all his life. And now that he is famous, they all want to act like they are family. How people were ashamed of him before, "You hid me behind a curtain, You hold me inside your Iris." But now that he has his big break, they want to act like they were always there for him, always believed in him, and stood by his side the the whole way. Thats where the Chorus comes in, DON'T - try to be the ONE - person Who has STAYED - just to say they never left me! Aggravated, complicated, someone say itGod, I never learn… Basically telling those people to fuck off. That he is getting aggravated and at the end saying, i think in a sarcastic manner, "God ill never learn" Really saying that they will never learn not to judge people.
