The dust is left to pollinate
Everything we gave birth to
So we can only watch it grow in numbers
And as the weeds fade in
They leave holes to tend to
While the earth bleeds in colors that sound like the wind
But I won't, no I won't rebuild it
I won't let it win
It will take it's course and we'll all grow from it

Redact

No more words the quiet calls out
Which kills the birds with hateful shouts
In your quest to change
What you thinks deranged
From the one who comforts your thoughts
Because when God is dead
We can live again
We can thrive again
On everything we lost
Because the heart is made when love is there
But you heart is filled with only fire and air
And I can't bring myself to find you
Retract all the cries you spill
And redact all the lies that thrill you
The seed is grown out of hand
And the fruit is soiled throughout the land
With a smile made of only knavery
Because when God is dead
We can live again
We can thrive again
On everything we lost
Because the heart is made when love is there
But you heart is filled with only fire and air
And I can't bring myself to help you
Lost and cold
With debts to hold
The Structure falls around you
And takes me down too

The End of Days
02:57
|
|||
|
Let's wait
Until we know the facts
Before we give them any credit
Let's slow
The so called voice of reason
To show your sympathy
It's only draining me
Your selfish reverie
The end of days are near
And it's all crystal clear to see
My backwards thoughts are here
To help you feel as bad as me
With my selfish reveries
To show my sympathy
Your battle scars have all been washed
They hold as much as your empty thoughts
Your intentions show you have been bought and sold
By your innocence

The skin is thicker than before
Peel it back to open the sores
Of every night I could've said more
Always sleeping to never talk
The only way to keep monotony blocked
And hold the fights on the clock
The consumption will help to fill
The production that always kills
Everything until it's still
And the dreams aren't adding up
The thoughts are blind and the airs corrupt
It's never right when it's close up
You close your eyes
And you realize that I've always been
Lost at sea
You have shown me the way
We'll cross that path another day
I guess I'm just hear to stay
My heart is beating out of my chest
I'll keep on trying but it's second best
I'll just wait for you to do the rest
You close your eyes
And you realize that I've always been
Lost at sea
You are alone
I can't find my way home

I Will Keep Trying
03:43
|
|||
|
The fires have only started
And the winds they start to gust
While everyone's disheartened
I can only show my disgust
If I bleed with you
We'll be the only few
Who learn that troubles happen everywhere
And if we steal the rights
To all the sights
We will never be lost anymore
You show the world that you want it
And tell them all that it's yours
I can do everything to take it
Because that is we should be looking towards
We will never be lost anymore

The Rapture
03:03
|
|||
|
It just makes no sense
To carry on with only regrets
And they don't seem to mind
To burn the bridge with whatever they find
Because their hearts are more selfish than their tears
And I'll wave goodbye when the rapture is here
Their eyes are black and cold
They see only what their told
Right or wrong they don't care
And a tooth for a tooth is only fair
Because their hearts are more selfish than their tears
And I'll wave goodbye when the rapture is here
It just makes no sense

Bullies
09:44
|
|||
|
The static burns my fingers to the bone
We'll leave it alone wondering why
All of them have lost their way to even try
The bully stands in front of the line
That's why I'll stay back and be perfectly fine
For them to lose their way
They don't even have to try
The backbones and voice have gone away
They both devolved as are eyes have strained
So we know it's the end
Do we even keep it up until then
So keep
Standing tall
There's no need to be a necessity
For those who breed with chemistry
And we
Won't fall
Because I'll keep what is left of me
To salvage and dignity
The choice was made
When we stayed away with our shelters
And now we fade and barricade
All the snakes that make a run
For the holy ground
The bully stands in front of the line
That's why I'll stay back and be perfectly fine
For them to lose their way
They don't even have to try
The backbones and voice have gone away
They both devolved as are eyes have strained
So we know it's the end
Do we even keep it up until then
And I'll wait
For you to figure this out once more
And I'll stay
Until you open up those doors
And I'll watch
As you fail every time
And I'll sleep
Until you realize you lie
Because it takes more than one
To kill everything good under the sun
And I'll wait
For you to cut every cord
And I'll stay
If you leave the one you adore
And I'll watch
As you clear the empty space
And I'll sleep
Until you severe every face
Because it takes more than one
To kill everything good under the sun
Bleeding out
Nothing left to shout
And I figured out
It's never leaving
And our hearts they start to fade
And are hopes have drained away
And my knees they start to shake
And there's nothing more to take
Bleeding out
Nothing left to shout
And I figured out
It's never leaving
I'm only breathing

Call Me
04:56
|
|||
|
Needles have a way to crawl in sharp
They show their skin
They kill the dark
It's all we had it's all we knew
Just that little spark
But now we underestimate
We bend to shape we allocate
Things that only separate
And keep us far apart
That time you told me my ghost was gone
That time you told me it won't be long
To fall away and finally stay
Like the ones who watch and breath on your decay
I'm not the one to call on
And we try top hide these nights
Nothing seems to work without the fight
Something was lost a long time ago
The shadows speak and the demons grow
And I'm not the one to call on
I'm not ashamed of what we've done
And I won't regret what we done
And I can't erase what we've done
It's over and done it's over and done

Polished
05:27
|
|||
|
The silence speaks more than words
I think I finally understand
Your mind will always shut it out
What you can't see past your hands
And now I'll wait and wait for you
To turn and walk away
From something you started with your fists
But can't back it up with crooked lists
It took time to notice that you live for yourself
And it bends me backwards to yell out for help
And you don't want, don't need, can't stand anything from me
And I have to figure out there's more to life then answering your pleas
Belly first we'll get this done as you twist it all around
Drive away and don't look back to keep me on solid ground
And now your mind slips and fades from the person you were before
But when the demons shine they tell you your fine
And you lose it even more
It took time to notice that you live for yourself
And it bends me backwards to yell out for help
And you don't want, don't need, can't stand anything from me
And I have to figure out there's more to life then answering your pleas
Keep what you've accomplished
And you'll lose more than just me
And sell what you can't polish
Even though you should just let it be

It's Meaningless
04:07
|
|||
|
I guess I'll see you around
Because you never made the call
And it's not that big of a town
If you recognize me at all
Buried alone
I have nothing to say
And on my grave you pile stones
I'm finally free today
It won't find light
It breaks in flight
Nothing's quite right
It's meaningless
