The Things that get me happy are fading into nothing
Things I once knew are only something
The time keeper looks at his watch
Clock strikes Three
The world empties its buildings, it's people thinking they're free
Damming up the rivers
paving the forests
mining the hills
Your house made of bills
This future is looking so normal I can feel the chills
My brothers my sisters
This song is for us
Friends of the frantics
with their mobilizing antics
hold up disgraced flags
loading up gun with mags
claiming the world is illusion
a product of mass confusion
burning all the bridges
storming all the buildings
set us on a collision course against liberal feelings
turmoil and treachery
are in style presently
I don't want to try
I don't want to die
The world is terror
I want to cry
Somethings happening
No one is talking about these mysteries
Is it ending, is it beginning?
Human History is always about reckoning
Chorus
The Stakes are so high
The feelings so low
Times passing by
Watch it disappear
I got out my paper
we'll write a little bit later
I'm writing poems yet to be read
I'm writing songs for the dead

Into The Deep
04:25
|
|||
I'm walking through this empty city
searching for the truth, for the meaning
the sky is a vast empty ceiling
the dust flying up without any pity
wondering why i feel this way
the light in my life led astray
I feel my heart beating
I want to yell
I want to hide
No one to tell
I can't think
I can't sleep
I can't touch
i can't run
I want to feel someone elses fun like everyone does
Walking around it all
get me out of this dead shopping mall
Hope and silence in an empty hall
the building may collapse
it might fall
the ground is insecure
my breathe is fading
nothing in my grasp
the future is grating
I don't want to be here
I don't want to be there
I don't want a soul to see me in disrepair
I can speak my words slowly
The world can't end my
just another day
here's to this verse
life in the universe
Nothing but lies, This perpetual curse
Chorus
Rise up or fall down
into the deep
the vast emptiness of sleep
the world can be better with your choice
decide your future, louden your voice
life's not a mountain you can't overcome
it's a hill you fall down when you run
the sunights fallin
gets dark at night
then its done forever

Law And Order
05:24
|

The world is changing
there's nothing left to give
we're all in this together
no life left to live
Fires on the tv
shots fire
everyones in panic
assemble the angry fleet
the skies filled with choppers
to the children on the street
dog whistles are blowing
no longer discrete
They're hidden behind the banner of freedom and justice now
they're with the boys in blue and green
soon they'll hide in the ranks
stocked with guns and tanks
soon there'll be nothing to lose
when they take all they gain
freedom is but a world
the world is their weapon to play
power and authority always come into play
Law and Order
Chaos and Disorder
Chorus
Rule the world with blasphemy
Hide it behind false purity
Rob us of prosperity
Tell us we're against unity
Facts and fiction
blur the lines
Give no one piece of mind
tick tock
theres no time

One Step Running

The future is lonely
the future is death
i have no worries today
it's gonna be the best
If i ignore these problems I feel at rest
I have no worries today
it's gonna be the best
Catch me at the drive in
I'll be the best Brian
Never trust a Brian with a Y
Coax the genie out of the bottle
stir it up, pour it out
pray for survival
I'm at a loss in my profits today
no one is doing anything holy today
wondering why nothing went right
oh im sorry
where the red flags something bad
The lies you tell are true
whats it say about you?
clouding up my judgement making me feel pain
throw rocks in glass houses find out what it means
this emotional battle you created is one sided
only wearing rose coloured glasses you provided
drop it
Call me the breeze
i am the wind
call me the rain
its sadness again
call me life
divorce your wife
soulless observation
i am your friend
Chorus
One step running
out of the door
one step running
problems on the floor
one step running
knockin at the door
one step running all this and more

Lost In Thought
04:40
|

The water of denial is where he's at
he's drowning but he doesn't know it
he's lost the game, he's up at bat
finding comfort in his old habit
He's lost an can't be found
He's lost in thought
Out of reach
Out of hope
Can't preach
lost in thought
in thought cannot reach
lost in thought
at an imaginary beach
The pain makes him stronger
the more he moves on
he's leaving behind a stranger
he's known so long
sadness overwhelms him
a crack starts to form
adamant about his future, forgets where he's from
living for the weekend
struggling through the week
everything is victory
no time for defeat
He thinks of her for a moment
and the times they used to have
he knows he's in the future
always feels bad
finding comfort in his old habits
he's lost and can't be found
he's lost in thought cannot reach
out of hope
cannot preach
lost in thought
cannot reach
lost in thought
at an imaginary beach
He's drifting out of consciousness
knows his time is up
he'd break into Hades to see her again
lift the world over his head
The light getting stronger
he's thinking he's dead
hears a familiar voice
feels a loving hand
turns around
feels his feelings again
They have one last dance
