Waking light clearing through my daze Past hair too short to sway On a mouth that always prays I'm standing at the crossroads Wondering what I want most What's the future that I'll meet? I'll just pretend that life is short What we'll find: The strangest motion that we could follow I'm looking back (See the change) Setting red sun clung to the clouds My locks hung free and out I'm shunned from those devout Running through an open field With no sense of what is real Where did I go? Who am I now? What's the future that I'll meet? (I will wallow for hours and hours And miss this notion) Try to comprehend that life's right now Fighting time forever Can't take control, it all slips through me I've been so fucking distracted So what if I can't align? Who am I today? I've found it.

Enter Wildly 17 Mad at empty And I’m Dancing fists of shadow In the street light It became filthy with the stains of memories And dissolved as a child when it hit the soil A blade tempered with a cold flame A flam extinguished by a cold blade Remember beauty as dark engulfs me/it A pure drop of light into the abyss There’s a crowd in the attic

Just as you take my hand Just as you write my number down Just as the drinks arrive Just as you play your favorite song As your bladder disappears No longer wound up like a spring Before you've had too much Come back and focus again The walls abandon shape You got a Cheshire cat grin All rolling into one This cat is on a mission Before the night owl Before the animal noises Closed circuit cameras Before you're comatose Before you run away from me Before you're lost between the notes The beat goes round and round The beat goes round and round I never really got me there I just pretended that I was What's the point of instruments? Words are a sawed off shotgun Come on and let it out Come on and let it out Come on and let it out Come on and let it out Before you run away from me Before you're lost between the notes Just as you take the mic Just as you dance, dance, dance Jigsaw falling into place There is nothing left to explain The pieces falling as you pass You look back, she looks back Not just once, not just twice Wish away nightmare, wish away nightmare You got a burn, you can feel it on your back Light, you can feel it on your back Jigsaw falling into place

Mastless 04:41
It matters not what you said I won’t rest till your lies Are buried Life isn’t always like this We’re sailing this mastless sinking ship I can’t vouch for the way it’s coming out Have patience Round and round here we go You have no idea What it means to be this way Go ahead light it up Don’t lie and say you can’t let go Don’t wanna live with this freedom So you drown it Life isn’t always like this We’re sailing this mastless sinking ship I can’t vouch for the way it’s coming out Have patience It makes this silence better now that we can lie Oh it’s ending begins On the embers burning away Burst out of the ash just to fly into the sun again If I ever leave I promise what’s in stone I’ll break wide belief takes control No way will I ever falter Even if my mind gets erased What is it you hold that we can’t create? It’s time to step down Nothing can show me the way to forgiveness This life breathes on your misfortune as you die

Gargantuan 04:43
My brain has fallen out And dipped in wonder Bird of no wing I breathe release I'm swimming through the air While the world turns on the spit A symphony of destruction Spreading the viral infection of the human race My blood will paint the earth They'll call my shadow gargantuan Mad vultures circle in Hear the sirens of angels Tempt me again I breathe release I'm baptized in the fire of the engine Become a vessel for the damned To make my final stand My blood will paint the earth They'll call my shadow gargantuan I'll sing from my grave Without a pen or a mouth I'm coming outside A wish for death as the sole last way to live I will not be drawn in sand Should life my journey end And I'll be on my way Those who took the world by blaze Their fires are burning still Now I'll be on my way

Grind Tune 05:20
Oh my favorite ruin Strike and toss the match You shine much brighter when you burn Sold my freedom For a million wasted hours Spent them all on my escape (Locked into heaven) I live asleep in firm belief These walls are never gonna get knocked down (Doubt burns beneath) This city becomes my grave A pit we dig in blind faith Smoke infects my mind reintegrate what I thought was lost And I'm nursing on the exhaust I've been erasing memories to fit my new religion Cleanse those sick with indecision (Locked into heaven) You gotta die to leave this place I'm burning myself at the stake It takes more than that to make me back down (Doubt burns beneath) This city becomes my grave A throat we slit in blind faith What does it mean When the lights are fading? Nothing is strange Carry on like before But it crawls beneath Oh it crawls beneath Now, as I try to fall asleep I can hear it Call my name out "You're blindly satisfied Swear you need it Lie to my eyes" And if you just take what you're given You trade in you're life for rotting slowly
