Everyday reminds how,
We get up we get up, and we strive to survive in the now
The bottom line, I’ll redefine divine ways
I’ll take what’s mine today
Travel Outwards, journey inwards to find
This life digs deep
Face the past for
Those before you mastered
The beaten course
We are the warriors
I’ve crawled through the Earth
And sifted through the dirt, just to find out what it means
Sacrifice yourself to earn,
What others only dream
Travel Outwards, journey inwards to find
This life digs deep
Face the past for
Those before you mastered
The beaten course
We are the warriors
I foresee distant stars to be
Free from all that you see in me

Tougher Together

How did I get led astray
We are wrong
Whatever made me feel this way
Fanning the fire grew the flame
I've realized, you and I
Are so much better when we stay
But now, we are the product
Can't stop, a new construct
Guard’s down, we surrender
Now were, tougher together
Changing paths
Led away for all to see
Through my fingers and now it’s gone
But now, we are the product
Can't stop, a new construct
Guard’s down, we surrender
Now were, tougher together
How did I get led astray
But now, we are the product
Can't stop, a new construct
Guard’s down, we surrender
Now were, tougher together

Silence is Progress

Silence to bring the only one back, only one that masquerades around a silly fact
Silence to numb the child within that, he himself anticipates that he had met his match
For all that I know (for all) is it worth it cause it hurts? (things are looking up), A wretched universe (never again), show me what I'm worth
To see what we made in our search, create, it quickly escalates, it's bigger than the earth
Silence to choose the artifacts that, Will remain to recreate all that will die and pass
Silence to cease the cardiac dance, dissipates then melts away another soul collapsed
For all that I know (for all) is it worth it cause it hurts? (things are looking up), A wretched universe (never again), show me what I'm worth
To see what we made in our search, create, it quickly escalates, it's bigger than the earth

Failure to translate
My mental state
Where did it all go?
I thought we knew each other better than that
Brittle and hollow
Do what you’re told to and follow the dance
I’ve said it before and the fact remains,
We all construct and then rearrange what’s true (make it up, make it up)
Flashing lights as illumination strikes now I’m sure
Lies procured
And it feels the same
(But you know that it’s not)
Nothing has changed
(You know I will)
And the fascinations we’ve fabricated
I’ve said the same thing time and time again
Time to face yourself man don’t pretend

You can see me, you can feel me
Yet discretely try to defeat me, what does that say about you?
Because lately, I’ve been thinking
About the active state of misleading, take a look at yourself before you blame someone else

The scent you left lingering in my room infectious
Like a virus I’m left helpless
What am I to do when innocence consumes?
Looking back, it was something fresh and new
Just another thing to do, just another thing to do
I know, oh it goes to show we’ve
Made due, this was all we knew as the
Moon falls, loving through the night
Tomorrow, we will say good bye
You and I are creatures acting naturally
Don’t think with our heads just move our bodies
I wanna hold you close, and kiss your lips
You’re the one I want
Feeling like we’re losing grip
With all we’ve done tonight
We will be entwined
The beauty that we find
No concept of time
I know, oh it goes to show we’ve
Made due, this was all we knew as the
Moon falls, loving through the night
Tomorrow, we will say good bye
You and I are creatures acting naturally
Don’t think with our heads just move our bodies
Through the night losing sight,
Turn the lights out, blur
Do it right, I won’t fight
Baby make me slur
I know, oh it goes to show we’ve
Made due, this was all we knew as the
Moon falls, loving through the night
Tomorrow, we will say good bye
I know, oh it goes to show we’ve
Made due, this was all we knew as the
Moon falls, loving through the night
Tomorrow, we will say good bye
You and I are creatures acting naturally
Don’t think with our heads just move our bodies

Every time I drive up to your light
The anxiety inside, with the thought of just your sight
I can’t wait til we collide
As we fall right out the sky
I get lost inside your eyes
As time slips by and I can’t defy,
These things they got a hold on me
I’m going through my darkest days
Stuck inside this endless maze
Monotony, has gotten me, acting, acting, catastrophically
Can’t you see there’s so much more, dwelling, buried deep inside of me, GO
And you still attempt to define our lives,
And we won’t abide to the lies contrived
No I won’t take this anymore
Realizing the path I’ve come to abhor
All these rules they bling, and constrict me
All these paths define
First come, first serve
What you get is what you’ve earned
First come, first serve
What you get is what you’ve earned

And I can’t find a moment
Or a reason to hold onto myself
Can I be so soft-spoken?
Unusual token of my wealth
You are the one that had kept up and stepped up beyond our senseless selves
And is this my condolence
Impossible to please
Please help me out
Don’t pin it all back on me,
Pin it all back on me
Your words come out, affluent and leave
The room aloud
I’m surprised by now, you haven’t figured out
How it all went down
I know what’s going on
You know that you were wrong
I guess I’m moving on
Baby just play along
Am I chasing this feeling lying under the ceiling by ourselves?
I look in your direction
Damn you’re such a tease
Your words come out, affluent and leave
The room aloud
I’m surprised by now, you haven’t figured out
It all went down
We scream and shout and still you don’t believe how it went down
