We viewed a landscape darling,
That line of sight's now narrowing.
Bad blood, stale oxygen,
high hopes feel real just like the wind.
Time and time again.
So tired of fixing mistakes,
we'll make them time and time again.
What's left but swing and swing and
swing and swing
and swing until you're dead.
Yet something calms me, aides me in the dark.
And slowly, duelling, motives make their mark.

Fiends & Animals

The day begins for fiends and animals who claw and tear through hearts and minds.
It's all making sense, so simple, so credible. Just take a break and lose that mind.
Drop us a line, and see how long it takes for us to climb pass truth and lies.
Never alarmed to find that common ground. We'll storm the gates. Be brave not bound.
Well my eyes well up,
I'm slowly drinking from the same damn cup.
My heart's still beating in a world divide.
I see the look inside these strangers' eyes,
and such a feeling drowns my thoughts and goals.
Where's the heart, now where's the soul?
We'll never know.

Bracing, don't aim to please nor transfer.
Tracing my steps in stones that brought me home.
Now I'll practice what I preach.
Talk about the times, offer words so sweet.
Merging into curves, swimming in my dreams,
soaking up the tones, frisbee on the beach,
screaming out of cars, living with the beast,
taken by the sounds buried from beneath.
Thirsting, for words in the desert of minds.
Cursing, all the stars that left us behind.
Layers burning. More years, learning. World's still turning.
You were wishing time was disengaged forever.
( If you want me to show you,
follow close behind.
Reaching, preying.
If death had felt this close before,
I'd see you underneath the soil
we're buried deep within. )

No Difference

Let's shake and pop those lids,
and let our insides out for good.
Locking minds and talking heads.
Conversation meant for friends.
It won't make a difference.
Now shake and stir your own,
and let the lights turn themselves low.
At a slow and steady pace,
give it all away to grace.
It won't make a difference.
Now smoke's filling up the room,
everybody's leaving soon,
It'll just be me and you.

Wake up and feel the weight, god. Bring me a brand new sun to hang. Those brain cells latched to sickness. I calm them down with all I've got. Let's dance with demons, baby. We'll make so many new friends and kill the silence one more time.
Here I am, on the mend, lost in the city.
Such a long way down.
Waste a dime, do the crime, rise through the ceiling.
Such a long way down.
I tell those voices softly, "Let's take some time and bleed the well, light fires, sing 'til lungs die, and make this last past midnight." Lay flowers X marks the spot. Let's see this spark light up the dark. Let's kill this silence one more time.
Here I am, on the mend, lost in the city.
Such a long way down.
Waste a dime, do the crime, rise through the ceiling.
Such a long way down.
Thrash, smash, take it all. Break me down please.
