Menace

Shook down
Aching to the core when ruptured powerless
We'd see red to horizon
If there were care left spare to give
Sanity's swinging on a shoestring
Numb to epiphany
What gives in the dirty corners
Call it will, call it anything
Heartbroke and dreamin in a backseat
Living in a head, right in the skin
Sanity's swinging on a shoestring
When shots fired too easily
Do we suffer only to recover
Coming up for air before the cycle takes me in
Suffocating, aspirations fading
Coming up for air until the cycle starts again
Wake up in another headspace
All's well and immediate
It's high time to live a little easy
And know who the hell we're fighting for
Who's down to sever that shoestring? Who needs autonomy
So go kill your menace deep in your heart
Show some love and open your arms

Burn Forever

A reprieve brings you to your knees
Then you realize
The peace still out of reach
Crawling right between your eyes
Never brings, only drains
Not enough to feel free
It never was yours to keep It'll never be
It's still out of reach
In time but off center
I'm fine but not fine tonight
Horizon's aren't meant to be so hard to find
In time but off center
I'm fine but not fine tonight
The thrill's gone, left a mess in me
I've identified what is still always happening
Right between the eyes
Gotta work
Gotta breathe
Gotta dig in deep
Every wrung brings a new vantage point to see
But it's still out of reach
In time but off center
I'm fine but not fine tonight
Horizon's aren't meant to be so hard to find
In time but off center
I'm fine but not fine tonight
Gonna burn forever
Nothing right left to say
The connection's severed
Every thought's so far away
In time but off center
I'm fine but not fine tonight
Horizon's aren't meant to be so hard to find
In time but off center
I'm fine but not fine tonight
Horizon's aren't meant to be so hard to find
In time but off center
I'm fine but not fine tonight

Remnants

My reaction from all the distraction has got me running in place.
My fear's all haunting and clear
while you're barely awake
If you say you're better off all alone
If you say you're stronger than we know
I will wait til you're ready to come home
If you say so, if you say so
All the mention of early ascension
Has got me worse for the wear
A euphemism for my current condition you
I hate leaving you here
If you say you're better off all alone
If you say you're stronger than we know
I will wait til you're ready to come home
If you say so, if you say so, if you say so, if you say so
We will break
We will shine
And the remnants will be left behind
All the weight
All the time
All the things we sacrifice
If you say you're better off all alone
If you say you're stronger than we know
I will wait til you're ready to come home
If you say so, if you say so, if you say so, if you say so

Chewing On Broken Glass

It's a jinx if you speak
About it when it's happening.
So just don't talk.
Try not to think that you
Might not get it back.
It was strange enough for us already,
Before this last one...
But it's a knife in the gut
To think of what could've been.
So, what's the story now really?
It's been a while since we got it straight.
Don't wanna leave.
Don't wanna stay.
I just need something that I can take
To replace the bad taste
In my mouth with something sweet.
Is this all happening?
Is this all happening?
Cause there's no way
That we got this right.
I'm chewing on broken glass
And iodine.

Fences
03:57
|

Cover over nearly everything
a blanket hiding all the cuts we can't erase
Are we gone? Spent and swiftly drying up? Are we done like a chanterelle in the sun?
Wake up, rise up. Use or lose the senses.
Step up, own up to why we build our fences.
We cover over nearly everything
Hide the scars from our loved ones we hold so dear
Are we dead moving our bodies to let our lost souls lay in waste from bloody tolls?
Wake up, rise up. Use or lose the senses.
Step up, own up to why we build our fences.
There's a light shining over the pines
But somehow this mind feels so dark
I recognize that I'm losing my time
tired and broken without a spark
Wake up, rise up. Use or lose the senses.
Step up, own up to why we build our fences.

Side Of The Road

Considering all things are lost
Finding a way back to bury the cost
Is grinding me down to the dirt between us I can't remember where anything was
Or where I am
Out of my control
Now that I collide with all that's
Out of my control
I'm on the side of the road
Retracing my steps
Refuse to be rooted in rot
Finally making room for what needs some thought Crumbling around us all, everyone
Are we impatiently turning to dust?
Can we?
The tread it will only wear thin
So razors in
To an end all agreed upon with
A violent right pull of the wheel
Out of my control
Now that I collide with all that's
Out of my control
I'm on the side of the road
Retracing my steps
