So sick and tired of this sedentary lifestyle
You're bringing me down
I guess that we could stay for a while
and feel it around
Space in between
What does it mean
Nothing, yet everything
Friends into foes
Nobody knows
That's just the way it goes
Quietly, she speaks to me
Through her glances
Normally, not supposed to be
Taking chances
Patiently, observing me
She advances
I won't know 'til I see the way
That she dances
Too far gone
The lights and faces seem to blur together
What's that song
The temperature rises in here, every measure
I think it's by that one guy
I heard that he's cancelled now
Bartender, change the music
Nobody wants to hear this
Derivative drivel, over and over again
In the meantime
If it's alright
Dance by my side
Hold me tonight
So sick and tired of this ever-fleeting lifestyle
You're keeping me up
I guess we should've left, before it got so wild
but it's never enough
Fiery, her energy
She entrances
Looks at me, like old T.V.
Romances
Rarity, just let this be
Circumstances
Now I know, 'cause I've seen the way
That she dances
Space in between
What does it mean
Nothing, yet everything
Friends into foes
Nobody knows
That's just the way it goes
Enemies in love
As below, so above
Life, and the lack thereof

Shed your egos with us
Take the elevator, the easy way up
Consume the all, become the else
There's nowhere you need to be
That isn't yourself
Time flows only one way
We'll meet again someday
Let go all things both ways
Maybe we'll be okay
I tell myself to keep growing up
But I'd lose my damn mind
If I cared too much
Keeping your distance
Ain't bad for your health
There's nowhere you need to be
That isn't yourself
But all I crave
Is one simple act of connection
(You can hate me all you want)
Watch this!
Just say I'll be brave
I'd teach every bigot a lesson
(I'd grab them by their greasy collars and I'd say...)
My own eyes, they gaze through your lies
Horse too high, tear you down to size
Your tower will crumble to the ground
No power, you'll stumble- How's it sound?
Cries of the exploited
You know that this could've been avoided
So, shed your egos with us
Take the elevator, the easy way up
Consume the all, become the else
There's nowhere you need to be
That isn't yourself

Fell Apart
04:17
|
|||
I fell apart
Fated failure, straight from the start
I pried the art
From dead fingers, they still latch on to me
If originality is dead
I guess everyone's a thief
I feel pressure to
Be all I can be
Reflections of you
In everyone I see
Soon you'll go
Soothe your soul
Just let me know
If you plan on leaving me
Alone again
From paper, straight back into the pen
You reeled me in
Then cast me out, for reasons within
I fell apart,
Fated failure, straight from the start
I pried the art
From dead fingers, they still latch on to me
Alone again
From paper, straight back into the pen
You reeled me in
Then cast me out for reasons within

Vacancy
04:24
|
|||
I've spent every moment like it's last
But truth be told, I haven't saved
Like another story comes to pass
I wait on you to turn the page
Bright eyes
I see you looking through me
Black skies
Stars align renewing
They can't see the traces for tomorrow
Vacancy, the air that you can't swallow
I can't breathe!
You've got me in your chokehold
Let me leave
If only you could let go
Agencies pacing at your footholds
Basically, that's as far as you'll go
I
Can't
Breathe
I've spent every moment like it's last
But truth be told, I haven't saved
Like another story comes to pass
It's up to us to turn the page
Bright eyes
Black skies

Sanctuary
08:23
|
|||
Stay with me for a while
Let's get lost in the wild
Even on our darkest days
I don't care what that may say
Through the forest, through the trees
I don't care where things may lead
I just gotta let you know
That this ain't all for show
And I'm not letting go
Stay with me for a while
Let's get lost in the wild
I've been waiting way too long and
I've been singing the same song
I've been waiting way too long and
I don't know what I did wrong
I've been waiting way too long and
I've been singing the same song
I've been waiting way too long and
I don't know what I did wrong
When life starts getting scary
You're my sanctuary
I just gotta let you know
That this ain't all for show
And I'm not letting go
Stay with me for a while
Let's get lost in the wild
Stay with me for a while
Let's get lost in the wild

Scatterbrained
05:05
|
|||
Lately I've been
searching for nothing
Maybe sometime
This will mean something
Aimless endeavors
Patience matters
Paint me what I seem
Wake me from this dream
You know what I mean
Lines left in between
Scatterbrained again
Scatterbrained again
Lately I've been
Searching for nothing
They thought it was hell
But it was purgatory
Eyes blinded
Eyes blinded
Scatterbrained again
Scatterbrained again

Parallels
04:12
|
|||
The dichotomies in everything
Running on parallels
Still energy, I'm nothing
I see you walk away
Hit with resistance
You decided to listen
Words to be unheard
Only whispered perceptions
It's not meant for me
It wasn't meant to be
Keep this to yourself
Bring this to your grave

Field Studies in Time
04:05
|
|||
Tame those thoughts
Of spiraling anxiety
It's a shame you've lost
Your confidence to incompetence
Drifting apart
In head and in heart
Finish only to start
Your life is your art
Take this and you will go far
Time flies by our window
Casting light on the shadow
Sunflowers in a meadow
Tell their tales of the space we can't perceive
Can't you hear the echo
Voices call from the unknown
I wonder as I fall
Do I retain the self?
Or do I join the all?
Take this and you will be small

Sunabouzu
04:36
|
|||
I try not to ask too much
Too high off the ground
Can't look down
I let go, and I fall
Only to crash
Insatiable sensations
Weightlessness
Painful pleasure
Attainable vibrations
Aimlessness
Shameful leisure
All I've ever wanted
Was a strong heart
To accept my weakness
And all the flawed parts
If that's too much
To ask for
I don't wanna be
Here anymore
Insatiable sensations
Weightlessness
Painful pleasure
Attainable vibrations
Aimlessness
Shameful leisure
I try not to ask too much
Too high off the ground
Can't look down
I let go, and I fall
Only to crash

Hereafter
08:08
|
|||
The price of piety weathers the shame
Gash in my back
Before the shepherds came
Hauling problematic proverbs
Even the worst won't sustain
Pulling back on points
That led to the slaughtered's pain
All's quiet
Like everything's right where it needs to be
No riot
Retired to bliss of eternal sleep
Lost sight
Of everything one was meant to keep
Detritus
This festering soul for the earth to feed
All's quiet
Like everything's right where it needs to be
No riot
Retired to bliss of eternal sleep
Lost sight
Of everything one was meant to keep
Detritus
This festering soul for the earth to feed
Wipe the stench off your breath
And call me a leper 'til my weeps cease
Ellipses, she's gone to the great hereafter
They feel the warmth of drugs release
And we're the ones who suffer after
Entropic heat death
Looming on the cusp
Boiling last breath
Returning to dust
Wipe the stench off your breath
And call me a leper 'til my weeps cease
Ellipses, she's gone, she's gone!
And we're the ones who suffer

Little Threads
04:35
|
|||
Baking out the living room
I believe I'll be leaving soon
But, if I wish to go
I'll surely let you know
Let you know
Hanging on to these little threads
Keep it all inside my head
Cause one day, I'll let it go
For now I'll let it flow, let it flow
Let it flow
Let it flow
Let it flow
I can see to a higher path
Add, subtract, yeah, do the math
Cause if we find the key
Then we will be set free, be set free
Once I find my breathing space
See myself again, face-to-face
I'll always see the glow
Of light lost long ago, long ago
Let it flow
Let it flow
Let it flow
Try and simplify your life and
Don't divide your time into a shallow mind
Your soul is divine
So cry your eyes out on my shoulder
I will want to be there when you feel all right
To be by your side
If I wish to go
I'll surely let you know
