You stand so tall Ruling it all Mask on wrong I can see the fall Submissively Consciously Diving in deep Willingly Blindly Following your lead You are a disgrace Two faced I will stand in place You took my hand to trace Then erase I will stand in place You know You know i'm burning Bridges to light the way

Copper Mine 05:57
Reason, Relinquish This unfathomable love The Skies gleam of truth Contrast through sighs An impending doom Seeking the lines Silhouettes in the sky Staggering in size In the hills we hide Trail to the side Tracking you at night Avoiding the signs Burning bold and bright Seeking the lines Silhouettes in the sky Staggering in size In the hills we hide Gazing from a far side In the hills we hide In the hills Tree limbs scratching sweat soaks through In the hills we hide In the hills Tread light for the copper mine To ensue our dues To ensue our dues

In Flux 04:44
Take a breath Time has passed Lost the sure fire Taken back Broke the silver line Graceful detached Broke the silver line Weave it back Stay intact Karma comes back Change will come Adjust or run In Flux Switch up Won't stop Penance to peruse The warmth of refuge Motions out of proportion in size Fortune of pain tantalize Fear of change embrace the ride Step back with pride in stride Motions out of proportion in size Fortune of pain tantalize Fear of change embrace the ride Change will come Adjust or run In Flux Switch up Won't stop

Parallels 04:52
In idle further down The isle lead us to the sound Juxtaposed unparalleled In fold our eyes will swell Compiling our thoughts Comparing wills and needs There there That's just fiction you see These parallels Have reached the point where can't tell The difference between Their constant badgering A blurry hell Craving validation Expecting a classification Compiling our thoughts Comparing wills and needs There there That's just fiction you see Compiling our thoughts Comparing wills and needs There there That's just fiction you see

Unkempt 05:02
Saturate close the gate To left what's unseen Coordinate and sedate What's on the screen Casting lies utilize all the cries Of the masses not so keen Won't sympathize When they're panting on their knees Sounds so cold I am told of this thoughtless dream In fact it is bold questioning most things Get up off your knees Stand up fight and scream Shared passiveness We've had enough of this Calculate against this state We won't return to feed We won't return to feed You think it's so simple Easy and nimble But in reality we are falling Crawling through the thick Perpetually sick, malnourished, unfit Kicking and bawling High ground they grin Protecting their kin Our words have no sin And they know we're coming Shared passiveness We've had enough of this Calculate against this state We won't return to feed

The Headland 05:14
I've been stretched over the faultline Clenching the thought of being fine Tourment is casting me a bribe Distinct but it looks so fine Truncate this fate I'm not too late Headland dawning I'll keep watching I am crushed between the faultline Pressure can be so kind Tourment starting to subside I know i've been leading my life blind Truncate this fate I'm not too late Headland dawning I'll keep watching Light in place of fright Removed without spite Challenging the light Until i'm out of sight

Petrichor 05:18
Pastel skies Uncompromised Will burn off the morning dew Seeds of hate Blossomed I expected blue Vibrations fawning Beneath deep down they are spawning Life is crawling Testing fate Taking shape To create while dying Cloudburst Immersed Parched dry scorched earth Downpour comes from our blackened eyes Replenish life Replenish the sky

Rose 03:51
You get up and put on clothes You're in a rush I suppose I took your hand and you froze Now i'm along I suppose Go back to sleep no on knows I'll pick my dreams from a rose Scathing upon Unwavering views This isn't the first time I know That the pages will unfold A problem is here I am told Lack of love, life a stronghold Minimalize control A problem getting far too old The patterns are all just wrong Erasing them won't take too long That's just not how they belong Scathing upon Unwavering views But it took too long now your gone I get it, you're not wrong I guess i'll just write a song

Somnambulism 03:40
Lethargic I'm systematic I'm static Looking manic Did it happen again Harping on recurring dread Lost at sea or pushing a swing In sync, pulsing, refuse to blink Refuse to blink I'm sporadic Kinda satanic Awfully erratic This is lucid

Morning light seeping through The curtains are half pulled Trying to forget my memories of you I lift myself from this bed Feeling like a fool I can't rest my head For a moment or two Most days I dread The air is far too cool The plants are dead Covered in frost it's true Covered in frost Trapped in this place Fading fast to the gruelling pace Distractions are fine But i'm still left with you on my mind Of a time when we were cool and kind Goddamn this life All i ask is why For the fear, the seed, the animal breeds Pining for that warm summer breeze Our little walks and bending knees And now that it's gone The fear, it breeds, it concedes Trying to control me I don't know i'll just let it be The fear is controlling me I don't know i'll just let it be Morning light seeping through The curtains are half pulled Trying to forget my memories of you I lift myself from this bed Feeling like a fool I can't rest my head For a moment or two Most days I dread The air is far too cool The plants are dead Covered in frost it's true Covered in frost

Hear the ground Crackling under feet Listening for the stream Gotta rest my head for morning Daylight leaving Lurking through the night In the dark resting tight Wading shapes in the night I feel them watching till I sleep tight Circling, floating, zeroing Breathing down my neck I would tell you otherwise But i'm tired The tone is set Live to see the light Sun dawning it's too bright Search for water none in sight Drowning in dust soaking up the light Water rushing Lapping up what I can find Bathe in will to fight The outcome will overcome the lies Wading shapes in the night I feel them watching till I sleep tight Circling, floating, zeroing Breathing down my neck I would tell you otherwise But i'm tired The tone is set Bloodshot eyes from screaming Shaking, sweating, and losing hair Nothing will compare
