Hey, little runaway
Is this where you hide
When you run
From your foolish pride?
Did it really have to be this way
Did it really have to go
Was this all for nothing
But to hide what you stole?
So you run
Go back, find it
Could you read it?
Never seen it
Could you feel it?
Time is gaining on you
Can you believe this mess
That you created?
Try to find an open mind
While your memories burn
You’re on your own
Try to find some peace of mind
While your memories burn
You’re all alone
Did you see it
Did you feel it?
Did it mean anything to you?
Did I mean anything to you?
Go back, find it
Could you read it?
Never seen it
Could you feel it?
Time is gaining on you
Try to find an open mind
While your memories burn
You’re all alone
Try to find some peace of mind
While your memories burn
You’re COMATOSE

I can’t sleep
Seems the house is buzzing
Dug too deep
Now my thoughts are running
Away from me
Let me sail on the winds of change
When ashes remain
I wish I was comatose
Far removed from this body
I’ll try to find the code behind
The failures that haunt me
My sense of purpose was thrown out the window
Betrayed by the hand of someone I used to know
Ten years gone more wasted time piles on
Second by second
I wish I was comatose
Far removed from this body
The years gone by have bled me dry
I’ll try to find the code behind
The failures that haunt me
Treacherous thoughts, you dwell on debts and frustrations
Your mind beckons you forward and over the edge
I believe in THE FALLEN MAN

We are the virtuous
We signal it with pride
We are the virtuous
We stick with our own kind
Oh, seal away
All dissent and decay
The third wave is the answer
Just don’t fear the cancer
We mock the fallen man
Whose tears make fertile
Our new land
We are the virtuous
We own your ears and eyes
We are the virtuous
Would mainstream news lie?
Lets not pretend I care about the suffering
Lets not pretend I care about the reckoning
A bird that smashed the windowpane
Crashing headfirst into home
We mock the fallen man
Whose tears make fertile
Our new land
On stronger backs we stand
The founders of our once great brand
Oh, heir of mine
On borrowed time
Oh, heir of mine
On borrowed time
Oh, heir of mine
Oh, DYING LIGHT

So you’ve come to know my secrets
In retrospect
The light was bright enough to blind
In a bunker lies the defect
To circumvent
The gaze of trying eyes
Do or drown, do or drown
In a pool of confetti
Sleep just fine
Believing you saved me
So save me
Save me
Fill your mouth full
With concern
Toil in jest
Of the absurd
Why don't you save me?
To what do I owe the pleasure
Of this unsought salvation
Line up single serving friends
I’ll take you in
Your strife will soon be on the mend
Or we’ll go over it again
How many words must you spout freely
Into an abyss of cacophonous sound
How much forced empathy does it take
To drown out the voices of guilt and doubt?
Do you think that's right?
Do or drown, do or drown
In a pool of confetti
Sleep just fine
Believing you saved me
So save me
We are not wanted here, we are not wanted here
We are not wanted here
In this state of emotion, times are bleak

The Spaces In Between

Founded in a vacuum
Of thought
"Balkanize the privileged
They’re otherizers born to hold us down
As two plus two is five
They’d guide our dreams to die"
See the leaves
Wrought by independence
Rusting by the sea of thieves
Whose waters flow free
The seraphim cry “holy are you”
Echoing in the spaces between us
The seraphim cry leads me to you
Paving the way for the great war on reason
When you were just a child what was your parent greatest lie?
Were you told you could be anything as long as you just tried?
But since the veils been lifted you’ve been feeling victimized
So pass off the blame to those who clearly stole your shine
See the leaves
Wrought by independence
Rusting by the sea of thieves
Whose waters flow free
The seraphim cry “holy are you”
Echoing in the spaces between us
The seraphim cry leads me to you Paving the way for the great war on reason
Choke on your own muddled message
Cannibalize your ranks
As you fade from existence
The seraphim cry leads me to you
Exiled, EAST OF EDEN

East of Eden

Thought you were steadfast
Unwavering
Am I that unsuspecting?
Talking behind my back
To my family
This song is your vexing
One year away
You’ll be begging me
To stay
Motivate me
Give me a reason not to shake
You from my coattails
I’ll give you reason to weep
Your selfish regression
Narcissistic
Your pseudo-intellectual spew
Your passive aggression
Your double standards
Your debt is coming due
Motivate me
Give me a reason not to shake
You from my coattails
I’ll give you reason to weep
You’ve got it so good but you’re picking at loose threads
You've got it so good but you're picking at loose threads
My father passed down to me
The art of the grudge
You won’t see this coming
But when I leave you here
To start a new career
We’ll see who’s laughing
Who the fuck is laughing now?
How beautiful we could be
Yet fragile it would seem
Delicate little things
A GLASS MENAGERIE

Glass Menagerie

Baby, I don’t feel right
There's a pain moving forward hopelessly shoreward
Veiled in moonlight
And, baby, it’s not the same
I’m left wanting more than these vaguely hollow
Memories
Dusty portraits, smiling through your teeth
Faded film could never hope to hide
Those counterfeit feelings, on glossy images
Of an artificial family
It’s all over now
She left you like she left me
All we are is squandered
For all we care
All we are is nowhere
Nowhere is here
Underneath the floorboards In this shallow age of ephemera
There lies a window into the hearts of men
Corrupted anima, bagged and widowed
To be reborn once again
All we are is squandered
For all we care
All we are is nowhere
Nowhere is here
All we are is put on
A thin veneer
All we are is nowhere
Nowhere is here
Resurrected from the grave
As the pawns in your game
Pulling strings from the rafters
We're MARIONETTES OF DISTANT MASTERS

You took the shortest path
To a world of dopamine and oxytocin
But, hey, ignorance is bliss and dogmas like a kiss
From the lord above
Ignore the cracked foundation
To follow silently, feel you belong
Like a blind man shouldn’t walk
Around deals with the devil
So when you board the train to the next big thing
That might be saving you
You can look at what I said, it’s a pattern that I read
You’re so predictable
Like a blind man shouldn’t walk
Around deals with the devil
From the pyramids to the song
Crusades, regressive ways, and demagogues
Fear not child of the harvest
Hades holds the seeds of Adonis
For you
Like a blind man shouldn’t walk
Around deals with the devil
From the pyramid to the song
Crusades, regressive ways, and demagogues
"It did not occur to me that the absence of human companionship does not assure solitude.
For we take memory and imagination with us.
Even in the dead infinity of the sand itself
There can be no solitude in the sense of freedom from disturbances in ones thoughts.
We're unwittingly drawn back INTO THE MAELSTROM“

Into the Maelstrom

Awake, too late to pull
Your weight, life is null
Blank stare, into the middle distance
Dead air, dreams of indecision
You always go there
Tomorrow I carve stone
The breeze, carries a warning
Too late, sky is falling
Descent, into the maelstrom
Forget, your father's wisdom
The moonlight gives us a last goodbye
Tomorrow you move on
You can’t elude death forever
Luck won’t keep us together
Summer sun, birds of a feather
Luck won’t keep us together
(Howling, shrieking, forever)
(Save me, oh brother, save me)
(I breathe with the current)
(Remember us in life, in love, in art, our CENOTAPH)

Cenotaph

Falling
Through the wreckage
Of your dreams
Crawling
Out from underneath
Your debris
You always feed
Fears that plant seeds
Slowly growing
Into your disease
Passed down to me
Genetics bind
Our flesh in time
Forgotten
Said I knew the way
I knew the way
Drowning slowly
Join the buried
Put your hand in mine
Leave behind this life
Time, so trivial in this place
With no reason to wait
It’s easier to fade away
So lets fade away
Forgotten
Said I knew the way
I knew the way
Your journey completed
A tribute to the dead
Erected in the wake
Of the singularity
