Atmosphere!
Do we enter on our own?
Grab the wheel
As I'm passing through the dome
The ego of the masses
The king in the pit
Here to elevate and to witness
The great moment of the fall
The great consciousness
Take me from the dirty mouth
Of the madness
Of the madness on the ground
The great consciousness
Manifest the jaguar
Of the madness
Of the madness for the crown
This life I want to be reborn again
If only for a chance to be with you
Again
All this time if fades away
As we're bleeding like the sun
I'm falling through the atmosphere
We see our destiny

Wasteland
04:10

Shot calls clearly defined
The veil is a thin deja vu
Shown through the lens of time
Why do the curtains close
Beyond these stages of old?
The weak seek the power of the blind
Return to the wasteland
Return to the wasteland
Who escapes the ashen road
In a dustbowl?
Who can speak
With their mouth full of dirt?
They fence them in
Those that fought so long and hard
To escape that tidal militant
We split the ocean only to find
An upside down flag
And a simple sign
Return to the wasteland
Return to the wasteland
Unity can be through numerous means
Am I the hero?
Holding the last flower
Of this kaleidoscope?
Point me in
That same direction
Of those who fell in line
Why do they stand to obey?
I shook the arrow
And sent you through a shockwave
All the people stood and stared
Then we fought through the disarray
Return to the wasteland
Return to the wasteland
Who escapes the ashen road
In a dustbowl?
Who can speak
With their mouth full of dirt?

Mirrors
04:25
|

I walked out in the moonlight
Crazed, unable to fight
And you stayed behind and stayed up late
You left the lights on
As a vigil in the night
You woke me up to burn me down
The only time I feel alive
Is in the heat
Reaction creeps
I want to burn this city down
Your smile is full of pain
That I have caused
But not all is lost
Broken pieces
Mirror daydreams
Cut my fingers
Trying to put them back together
Come to me
My love and savior
Your open arms
Are enough for me to surrender
Those that shatter
Leave pieces on the floor
Broken pieces
Mirror daydreams
Cut my fingers
Trying to put them back together
Come to me my love and savior
Into your open arms
I'll surrender

Space Is

I saw a super-sized event
Multiple collisions
Quarantined abysmal
But it's all a distraction
Save the sequel
Representing
One voice
Is not enough to
Control
I thought I heard it all before
Won't you help me
'Cause these walls are closing in
I'm a digital god
And you're my virtual fox
This is a simulation
I told you once before
This is how you simulate
A missed connection
A catalyst projection
Childlike narrative dimension
Cause for closure
I'm sick and tired
Of watching these planets revolve
But is it all
For nothing now?
One voice
Is not enough to
Control
I thought I heard it all before
These darkened streets are where I belong
Holding onto a song
While I fade into the blackness
You tell me
This is a simulation
I told you once before
This is how you simulate
One voice
Is not enough to
Control
I thought I heard it all before

Can you take me out tonight?
I know the rules we play
But if it's how you feel
Then something's bound to break
Courage
Starts with one word
Can you take me out tonight?
There's a curious creature
That dwells inside of me
Picking its teeth with my bones
Courage
Starts with one word
The part about you that is holy danger
Show me your mask and steady gaze
Take me from these lips worn so
Caress my summer nights and watch me glow
Your smile is my smile
There's nothing better than to share this
So why must we part ways
Just when we shed this masquerade?
Can you take me out tonight?
I know the rules we break
But if it's how you feel
I know where it hurts
I know it is our ego
Courage
Starts with one word

Lust To Dust

Energize the tactical
And recognize where your feeling lies
You told me you can lead
But can you lead us from the path?
Circumnavigate what puppet does and weave together
A cradle for my maker
Just take my hand
And pass the rest around
Take a seat; sit beside the other four
Let us begin so that we may see again
We take the ritual to heart
And solemn silence enthralls
When we awoke it was a new light
No more dazed delusions to hide
The woven path is clear
Step to your own two legs
Stick upon your web of lies
The way you talk it's clear
You're an animal
The door on the wall is grained and definitive
Upon the other side leaks into dissonance
The handle turned reminds me subliminally
Of all that I am
The moonlight crosses the fading light
The trees bend in near
Close to the sight
No more dazed delusions to hide
The woven path is clear
Step to your own two legs
Stick upon your web of lies
The way you talk it's clear
You're an animal
Sedated past
Watching the first become the last
On a screen built around me
These silver linings worn by highlands
How am I this creep?
Creeping the ways
How you push me through the day
How you get me through the day
I'll never know
But if it wasn't for the show
Watch me pull these stars right from the sky
To our own demise
Push me, shove me, love me, fuck me
Show me, scold me, told me
You told me lately
How can this be?
If a person is lonely
And if I say what I mean to say
A parallel is it that different than you or me?
For each other only for will be another's life

Oblivion
05:35
|
|||
My bone bends and breaks
Exoskeleton
I feel myself separate
From my own skin
A change from within
Waves crash the expanse
Flooding into darkness
As oblivion retreats
A sanctuary within
When you believe in nothing
The focus is escape
My wings form and wake
In the end it's what we do to survive
A torturous escape
Hold strong, it begins!
When you believe in nothing
But you learn to say goodbye
Body is torn apart
Shell is left behind
No sky closes on me
No breath broken with lungs
For my body is no more
So I fly straight into the sun
Is it all annihilation?
Or are we born from the surface of the sun?
Body is torn apart
Shell is left behind
No sky closes on me
No breath broken with lungs
For my body is no more
So I fly straight into the sun

Monsoon

Gasp of air from the doctor's table
The stillness is what's left
I walk these streets unstable
And all it does is take more water from my glass
The voice in my head says
Drink deep and let go
Watch the landslide
Bring down a mountain I thought would last
And the dust won't seem to settle
No, the dust won't seem to settle
Clouds of my father's
Ashes to ashes
We all fall down
Tumbling into the grave
Lids close, eyes roll
Your dreams know how to awake
Through the slate sky I squint
As I sit beside the grey wall
On the concrete steps and wonder
Were these two lives, with one hide
Always like this
Like oil and water?
And my stubbornness is a burden
Mother says it's a gift
A gift from my father's
Ashes to ashes
We all fall down
Tumbling into the grave
Lids close, eyes roll
Your dreams know how to awake
Everyone can see the signs on the road
They get smaller and smaller the farther and faster you go
And mistakes have always been made, when you look closer
Doesn't it all seem strange?
As you circle out again
I awoke with that littleness
That settles, settles, settles, deep in the pit
The hourglass is thin on love
But thick with the sick

Old and new
Is nothing compared
To the moment I'm with you
And that feeling when we both surrender
To the innermost cry
To the innermost desire
Only you
Can show me how
Vanity
Can drag us down
So you build a wall
Only to fall
Back into the water
Watch it carry you away
Old and new
The current pulls
Back into the water
Back into the water
You surrender
To the innermost cry
To the innermost desire
Wait, don't you want to be alive?
Drown our love
While we die of thirst
Lips start the fire
As we begin the search
River eyes watching from afar
Have we learned nothing
Trying to remember
The water as it falls
The current as it pulls
The river as it pulls
Pull me in the river water
Pull me in the river water
Pull me in the river water
Pull me in the river water
Surrender
To the innermost cry
To the innermost desire
