Awakened 01:19
Descend, awake Unconscious of the pretense chosen to escape I remain calm while time decides

Move to change Unravel the decay Prepare to witness two minds become one I know who I am and I know who I was I seem to know many things and I always have (you do too) When will you see just like I see The looking glass is there, look through When will you know just like I know You already know... All there, all there inside you There, there for you What you think you could be You really could be What you think you know might be right But for some reason we choose to deny Giving our trust to them to tell us what is real Tell us how we feel Tell us what we know Tell us we need a god to Tell us Don’t you know you know? You know you know All there, all there inside you There, there for you All there inside you When will you know

Ok, I get it This is more than just another pretty voice inside my head You will be heard won't you You've got something to say don't you Nothing I haven't heard before But coming from you it means so much more I will no longer stand for the plan As above so below, no more doors I don't wanna shut my mouth no more Wanna do the things I could do before Everything you gave to me You took from me So full yet so empty I used to be someone They used to see me Where are my miracles this time? It's never enough, you know me Falling into this memory I'm always running and never knowing Falling into this memory Always changing, my past replacing Held the cross heard the sound in the way But it doesn't mean a thing today No one can hear in my head, it’s better that way don't want them scared You think I should be ok, don't you see I can see everything I'm tired of forgetting just to remember again Shine your perfect light down on me I can see it if I try I've always seen through your cracks and I’m still ok Nothing you can say will ever change my mind Nothing you can say will take this away Try as you will to comfort to me It’s never enough, you know that, you know me Falling into this memory I'm always running and never knowing Falling into this memory Always changing, my past replacing I’ve touched the sky before, I remember everything Was that also part of your plan? I've seen your light before I was ever anything Do you still wish I would forget? I won't forget

You're falling in slow motion How can you expect to soar when you can barely stand (I reach out my hand) This distance in between saddens me Despondent, paranoid How come you can't see you? You hide in your lies just like a whore in disguise You're not really hiding in your own eyes I'll bleed because you don't, I'll be free because you won't Soon you'll have no one left to disappoint Careful what you wish and dream Wallow in your shadow, just don't forget to look outside Don't miss your chance to just be, who you are We love you just the way you are We love you just the way you are Just the way you are I'm so close to giving up Just give me one more reason to...

Distant 07:23
God Damnit! I'm so fucking tired of standing still Dissolve it all for the thrill There's so many signs and reasons Open your eyes I just want to stay away today Remove the tongue I'd have to bite I'm trying to fly You won't move All love, all fear, all for you All you desire, all for you Don’t waste with lies inside you There's so many lined up behind to fill our places I can't stay in here anymore I cant feel, I can't express myself I feel me pushing away, away Speak love for your brothers Your actions spit in their face You’re not supposed to shit where you eat Pollute the water you intend to drink Under all of this anger, this fire won’t go away You are my life, my brothers This is the only way The gathering has spoken When will we start to listen? It’s bigger than you, more important than me I can’t stay away for too long I need the pain, I need this fear So I remember why I’m distant, but not gone I wonder does it bleed I wonder what if I push I wonder can this bleed What happens if I push I wonder can this bleed if I pick at it I wonder if I push will it all fall down I wanna see if it bleeds, that’s why I pick at it I wanna watch it fall down, that’s why I push I can’t stay in here anymore I need to breathe, I wanna scream Why won’t you let me speak? I’m distant, but I’m here Do you see what I see? Do you hear what I hear? Do you feel what I feel? Do you know what I know?

I guess I'll cut off my own leg Because I cannot break the chain that holds the ball that keeps me with you I crave your light, it soaked my seed You're my all, you know I'm weak But I'll hang on if you let me From lips to eyes I feel your needs The wants we need devour You want, I give But what you have you know I’ll take You want it all (I’ll have it all) But I still have control This pretty pill I’m taking This pretty pill I’m on Has got me all wrapped up Like itty bitty pieces of an empty whole This pretty pill You’re such a pretty pill I took your breath away and in turn took your voice away Now you can answer any question except this one What do you want? (Bitch) So don’t you feed my will but call me a stray And don’t you string me out to see if you can I hang this noose from my hand to watch you choke I lift this finger just to let you stand Chaotic comfort Pain and pleasure Perfect, pretty, mine You know I hold onto the blade Still these wounds won’t break this chain Swallow you down my precious disease Growing on me like the scabs on my knees You’re my tourniquet Tie me up so tight Make me so hard that I ohhh no Make me so hard Feed it, waiting, watch it growing Starve it, tease it, poke it, showing Desperate efforts, no control Sinking further hardly floating Fear is breeding, taking over No restraint and no recover End is here and there’s no other This pretty pill I’m taking This pretty pill I’m on Has got me all filled up Like starving little pieces of a plastic soul This pretty pill You’re such a pretty pill This pretty pill I’m taking This pretty pill I’m on This pretty pill I’m taking You’re such a pretty pill

Escape, I 03:40
Wake up, you haven't given up yet Dig in (yeah that's it), but deeper still You don't like what you see, but you can't run away There is no you, there is no me Different parts of a whole, one in the same And if there is no you, there is probably no me No reason to fear or separate at all Different parts of a whole, all the same Escape I, feel I, must I, bye bye bye Unravel the mystery left with me Revive the dead parts of me I am not about to stay here rotting The smell of death is sinking into my skin I am not alone, a piece of a whole Escape I, feel I, must I, bye bye bye Give up, give in Blah blah fuck I have done this before The sweat, the sin Yeah yeah yeah we are drowning in it The tune is changing, the rhythm flowing The song starts where it stops, there's no knowing This tune is changing, the rhythm flowing The song starts where it stops, there's no knowing Here it now, sing it out, our new song, sing it loud Here it now, sing it out, our new song, sing it loud

Calling, waiting, taking in need too fast to see Splitting, weaving, open the sky up there up high Eluding the eyes, hidden in sight, cascading light, moon-like they shine Malignant? benign? something divine? What do they hide so deep inside? One of the taken? Where then have you taken me? (A little Place a home far away) And now forsaken, left with what you put inside me (You’ll soon be found) A lamb to slaughter or one of the chosen ones? (We’ll be waiting, we’ll be waiting) And if rejected watch close to see what it does Truth they hide in the tales we tell Nothing seems to stay buried forever Hiding, dancing high in the sky My mind is blind, I am mine I'm me, I'm them, I'm us, I'm dust Evaporate your trust A private showing with nothing ending, but everything changing, separating One of the taken? Where then have you taken me? (A little Place a home far away) And now forsaken, left with what you put inside me (You’ll soon be found) A lamb to slaughter or one of the chosen ones? (We’ll be waiting, we’ll be waiting) And if rejected watch close to see what it does And to see Where it sleeps, if it bleeds The needle is deep, they've got me It’s not real I can't feel How have I got here? Ahhh now I've got fear I’m pried, my fronts rear Inside I'm un-geared Re-adhered red-haired Sent here to repair or confuse the aware? Now awake, the fun is here I see your holes in my sky, I want to be there with you I see your holes in my sky, I want to come with you

How Delicate 06:20
These memories are not my own Who is this that dreams of me? Too much time has been crossed And this face is not mine What lies beneath is quite sure You don't want to see deeper This mask I wear is starting to break It’s made of porcelain How delicate is this illusion you call me Even if I found the right words to explain You still wouldn't understand If I could find a way to bring it all to life for your eyes You still could never see This mask I wear is starting to break It’s made of the finest crystal How delicate is this illusion I call me The masks we wear will all break Made of our perfect lies How delicate will be our hearts when we're forced to see

Tired of screaming, same dance same song, nothing changing Long for some relief, a conscious way away Surroundings’ out of tune, it’s the wrong melody It seems I cannot affect this, every move I make takes me further away Overtaken by a certain sense of animosity Nothing you could say will calm my nerves at all I'll hide safe away Listen to the thoughts in between the soul and sin, I can see the fire Anchor to a place where I'm free of this despair I can feel that all I need, all I need is there This isn't another conversation for you to lead I just don't have the strength left inside me to become clearer All I need is there I need to find my safe away (where I) I need to find my safe away (where I) Won't link you Won't link you to pain Overtaken by a certain sense of animosity Nothing you could say will calm my nerves at all I'll hide safe away Allow this evil in, make it a bed and lie with it Weightless, I lose my balance again Overtaken by a certain sense of animosity Nothing you could say will calm my nerves I need to get to my Safe Away Safe Away

A time to suffer past Just one demon left, me A perfect escape, a sweet poison, another reason to sleep Hide away in here, hide away in here There is no one else but me, in here To remember now, things forgotten with a clear perspective, as if for the first time All the reasons seem perfectly clear in this new, blue, light Given choice, given chance to change I will Be my heart for all to see, me It seems funny now to compare who I was when I built this And this being who stands here now Nothing felt good, beauty was absent Or my eyes could not see what was there all along A lifetime may have been wasted if not for this invention And this intention to ascend The wall which is a metaphor A concept of isolation and reflection Emphasis on the reflection That’s why I built the wall (to learn how to love) That’s why I built the wall (to find peace and forgive) That’s why I built the wall (to take the life of my ego) That’s why I built the wall (to remember my choice) That’s why I built the wall (I built it up so high) That’s why I built the wall (I built it up so hard) I tried to blame everyone but I’m the only one in here That’s why I built the wall That’s why I built the wall Now that it's falling down, now I know

Inexorable 03:18

What divides the one and the same? The line in which we kill but feel no pain Absolve from feeling, disconnect from the whole Find a way to devise a wall to maintain resolve All free to dissolve, caught between these walls Why see our lies, release this guise protecting our precious sterile eyes Why realize we justify consumption, greed, beyond our means, feeding our demise Ion to insect, star to flame Where is the unity misplaced? Lie, fall, rebel, console We're spinning down and out of place... I need to find a space I'm lost in this single spoken verse All free to dissolve Caught between these walls Beliefs become our actions Common ideals overlooked Confinement breeds stagnance Parasitic we betray the core Why see our lies, release this guise protecting our precious sterile eyes Why realize we justify consumption, greed, beyond our means, feeding our demise Bring discriminate destruction A plague to bring the balance back to order With this imminent disaster Break the human species down and down Until we can learn the respect of symbiosis
