I Tried
03:42
|

I tried to just say no
I tried to take it slow
This is the last time
This is the last time maybe
Sometimes it all collides
Sometimes we need to hide
Escape to nowhere
Look for distance from silence
Running from no one
Keep everything at arms length
Close everyone off
So this will never stop
Close everyone off
So this will never stop
I tried to tear it down
Instead worn like a crown
This is the last time
This is the last time maybe
Sometimes it's just too much
Sometimes you need a crutch
One more keeps back the pain
One more to moderate

I went walking there one day
Where something that I lost remains
It's not a finite place or time
But the feeling the world was mine
A dose to climb into the person
Invincible a fearless version
You lived, you died, and left me
Trippin' face
I know you
Oh I know you
You don't even recognize me
You don't see the darkened horizon
I went walking there one day
Where something that I lost remains
It's not a finite place or time
But the feeling the world was mine
Trippin' face

Because I Want to Fit In
02:40
|
|||
But there is no real me, something illusory
I can hide my cold gaze because I want to fit in
I am not there
Run to no where
I want no one to escape
and this confession has meant nothing

Wake Up
02:44
|
|||
A gathering of the minds
The collective hides in disguise
The bond of animosity
Conditions to see the world blind
Ingrained through pain you fight
Without knowing which corner is right
I know you owe your hatred to the past
I know your soul has stains that will outlast
The hurt you feel is very fucking real
You've let your scars take over
Not further we are closer
I won't give up on you
I won't give up for you
It's time to wake you up
It's time we've had enough
You've been sleeping, harming, bleeding

Lost Not Found
02:24
|
|||
Get lost, leave no way out
Let go, face first from doubt
This life, you can't slow down
Don't look back, get lost not found
You're told to just stay busy
Keep your head down and don't think
You're told what makes you happy
Told what to eat and what to drink
The right time to be angry
To follow the line and don't kink
The way they want you to be hurt
Told how to dress and how to sing
Get lost, leave no way out
Let go, face first from doubt
This life, you can't slow down
Don't look back, get lost not found

Outsider
03:07
|
|||
One step, front of the other, keep going
Don't stop, passes in a blur, not slowing
Each day, focused straight ahead, with blinders
Fighting, tooth and nail alone, outsider
I've spent my life preparing for a party I was never invited to
If you don't stop to touch the sky
breath in the night as it passes by
One step, front of the other, keep moving
No one to blame only myself, I'm losing
A missed chance, stacking up again, compounding
Gasping, try to stay afloat, while drowning

The Fever Breaks
03:48
|
|||
I know your name, you know mine too
I try to blame, for me, for you
Every sunrise burns away
Darkness chases each day
Into the shadows I keep my head up to get by
A step, a breath, repeat and pray for blue skies
Into the shadows I notice it amplifies
a step, a breath, repeat and close your eyes
Hope this does not break me
I hope you don't break free
The fever breaks to let go
I wish I could let go

My Second Matrix
02:39
|
|||
Back it up, once again lets begin
Try to find something real within
Looking for a wound to drain
Looking through a numbness for some pain
Open up, cut it out, empty to magnify
Dissection on the floor, the excess tossed aside
Digging too deep, releases everything
Package for mass consumption
Exploiting scars for income
Back it up, once again lets begin
Try to find something real within
Looking for a wound to drain
Looking through a numbness for some pain
Open up, cut it out, empty to magnify
Dissection on the floor, the excess tossed aside
Digging too deep releases everything
Rehash to find ways to breathe
Package for mass consumption
Exploiting scars for income

Last Place
02:49
|
|||
I know some day we disintegrate
The light betrays and we decay
I hope some way I learn to embrace
the commonplace, all will be erased
I can't compete with you

Put On a Smile
04:42
|
|||
Another misdirection to break free
And then I turn and try to run away
Put on a smile like a coat of arms
A happy face won't set off alarms
Each day a struggle until the very end
The sun rises and it starts again
Breathing for me suffers from the unseen
Holds me down, while I drown
Pulls me down to the ground
Walk all over me
And when I look into my eyes
I see the pain remains
Another misdirection buys me some time
Break free to be alone and unwind
In desperation try to stay afloat
Put on a smile like a coat of arms
A happy face won't set off alarms
Each day a struggle until the very end
The sun rises and it starts again
Breathing for me suffers from the unseen
Holds me down, while I drown
Pulls me down to the ground
Walk all over me
And when I look into my eyes
I see the pain remains
At night I slip away
Dream of a day I don't break
Dreams each night keep me awake
Breathing for me suffers from the unseen
Holds me down, while I drown
Holds me down to the ground
Walk all over me
And when I look into my eyes
I see the pain remains

Dark Star
01:48
|
|||
Blast off
Hang on to your head
I think it's working
No idea what's ahead
Next stop the stars
Let's forget who we are
Lost on another planet
circling a dark star
A second wind
Let's get up one more time
The peak's ahead
Hang on it's time to climb
Next stop the stars
Let's forget who we are
Lost on another planet
circling a dark star

Black Coffins

Black coffins line Sunset Boulevard
The streets littered with dead roses
Rotting into this cemetery
The death of a romance
The end of any hope that comes here
Buried under this mortuary
Walk among the headstones
Breath in the air
There is comfort
When you fail
Fuck your bootstraps
Sink and relapse
Anything to survive
End the cycle
Downward spiral
Only your sacrifice
Black coffins line Sunset Boulevard

Everything is Fine
03:03

One day they'll say this was not for nothing
Isolate to the grey, detach to keep from crashing
To find yourself inside not denied
From out here it seems like everything is fine
One day they'll say this was not for nothing
Isolate to the grey, detach to keep from crashing
To find yourself inside not denied
From out here it seems like everything is fine
Set aside for a crime implied
Terrified, what it's like to survive

The Agenda

My dreams in constant defiance
of the person that I have to be
The agenda is control each cog in the machine

Two Words
03:14
|

Fuck you and all that you do
Cheat, steal and lie
Robbing us blind
You take a break
go back to sleep
You fake awake
ignore the deceit
Fuck you you'll never come through
Trained to behave
The world's your's to save
