Identity Of One
03:19
|

Always told to laugh
never told to cry
hold it in raising death on the inside
Always told to run
never told to hide
left alone among the useless that crawl by
The time we wait to be told we’re less than great
finds a spot within the cave I call my mistakes
We are praised and understood
until the beating hearts turn good
A glimpse of what we’ve always wanted
This is who we are and will be forever
A soft melodic rhythm
that can stand on its own
This is who we are and will be forever
While you lose your breath
promise me an identity of one
Always told to love
Never told to hate
Only a moment to realize I’m awake
Not spirit or with change
shall we ever rearrange
until we realize what tomorrow brings.

Ambition
03:38

“Welcome home”, she said
with a crooked smile upon her face
trying to hide every look of indecency
Disturbances knock only silence is heard
it seems like you’ve forgotten me
The darker I become
the closer I get to being
what I’ve been fighting for so long
And I was getting closer to the ground
closer to the depths of my faults
And I feel a sense of destruction
contagiously sticking to me
And I wonder with your ambition
if you’ll survive the never ending race
Thought I saw you falling,
falling through the sky
Thinking to yourself
should I live or should I die
You were getting closer
closer To the ground
closer to the depths
of that bleeding sound.

The Last Time
03:40
|
|||
Picked my head up the morning after
Watch the fire entrance the city
Birds fly high against the soft blue sky
and I’m left with hurting alone
I’ve been waiting and debating
how long it takes to find the courage
To destroy it and ignore it
Guilt stricken and left broken hearted
Walked around to find smiling faces
Felt a battle rise up from within
If this hurts so bad,
how could I lose what I had
I wish someone would string me along
It’s my fault
I’ve been waiting and debating
how long it takes to find the courage
To destroy it and ignore it
Guilt stricken and left broken-hearted
This is the last time I hold an invite
to look at me from inside out
Fight to break away from this mess
swear to live again
Go away and leave the rest to me
I’ve got that feelin’
Go away and leave the rest today
your God wont be there
Go away and leave yourself

Look Around
03:45
|

Inbred with the ignorance
to suffer from deliverance
Give me something to feel
a departure from what is real
The other side won’t separate
it’s only a matter of time
A panic left inside my mind
destroyed, unrest, and paranoid
Look around, Save yourself
Forgive me now Look around
Inbred with ignorance
to suffer from my innocence
Give me something wholesome
something other than feeling lonesome
The path we walk just fell apart
it was only a matter of time
Nothing left inside my mind
destroyed, unrest, and paranoid
Look around , Save yourself
Forgive me now Look around
Looking for the path
not the one I tread
I need something now.

Synthesis
03:46
|

It’s tough to escape
from the grasp of provided fate
Stuck within the sea of red
that swallows the grief of man
A green-eyed disposition set in motion
Settled with a notion of masochistic angst
A fair warning set aside
cast away by a fragile mind
Forced together and aligned
All the same under common ground
an honest mistake that has found
our wrists to be bound
We feel revived once the sun
lays its head to go to sleep
No longer worried about
the vast blue ceiling
Black water pressing hard agains
the levee, flooding all that’s standing
A fair warning set aside
cast away by a fragile mind
forced together and aligned
All the same under common ground
an honest mistake that has found
our wrists to be bound.

Am I Insane To Be Sane?
03:03
|
|||
No one ever told me
that to be who you want to be
you have to be someone else
Next time say it to my face
you disgrace me
like the mask you hide behind
I don’t care about what isn’t there
Shot me down just leave me now
broken on the ground
I don’t know how to move on
and you don’t know what
goes on behind closed doors
Please someone save me
I’m going crazy ripping
the hair from my skull
Razor blades and maybe
I won’t be so crazy anymore
Respect my uncertainty
Respect my insanity
Chorus
I need someone to save me
I know I’m crazy
bleeding from my eyes
Across and maybe
you’ll see I’m not crazy anymore

A Conflict Within
06:35
|
|||
A battle of give and take
Guides decisions that we make
The people in their homes
Can’t imagine what unfolds
We live our lives in search
Of justifying birth
To this Earth no longer tied
Trip the wire, watch it unwind
Breathe in the new life
For I have given you the right
Reject the lies
Accept the truth that I abide
Take my hand
With it you will truly survive
My love will always stand
Never quit and breathe in the life
We falter and we wane
We do it with no shame
A land where judgements rule
Breeds egalitarian rule
Tricked into feeling pain
We cannot help the same
If we fall we’ll bring them too
Chained together, through and through

Don't Fall Away
04:26
|
|||
I couldn’t wait for tomorrow
Finally lie on my back and rest in one peace
Free from anything and everything
that I have ever put myself through
One touch too much
I’ve been caught lying
It’s fate too late
I’ve been caught trying
You saw it’s my fault
I beg forgiveness
Make the pain please go away
I made you stop in your tracks and
take a look back to notice a better place
That you and I both know would be here today
if things went differently
It only hurts when I try but will never suffice
to resurrect a final end
But please don’t fall away from me
I’ve heard it all before
plea to change what cannot be undone
A freefall with no way out
I became what I never wanted
A fake mistake
Forgive me now
It hurts too much
to ease the burden
A falling star
can you even hear me
I should’ve thought this through
Chorus
I’ve been waiting for the end come and rescue me
I wish it wasn’t too late to come and save me
It’s not safe to enter
A struggle inside
No place for wonder
It’s getting harder to breathe
But please don’t fall away from me
I feel you far away from me
Please don’t fall away

No Sleep 'Til Sundown
04:43
|
|||
Running around in circles
with no sense of doubt
you said you always wanted more from me
Look me straight in face
tell me this is no place to follow through
and I knew that I would see you one day soon
Can’t help but think of running away
one of my stepping stones of yesterday
and I’ll wait until my mind has met its bitter end
Choose either wrong or right
Thrown desperately into the fight
in your sights but now I’m awake
It’s tough to stand on my own two feet
and not see where it ends
Still hurts to ask for more
And I did not mean to deceive you believe me
it’s not easy to breathe
please give me a chance to explain
I’ve been there you listen
You’ll never see a side of me
will you?
I’ve been there you listen
A world apart straight from the start
we knew.

Takedown
06:12

They come quietly while we rest in our place
of reason, beguiled with visions in our heads
Over the walls they climb calamity in their eyes
determined to overcome
Night and day seldom reach tranquility
before havoc reigns
Forsaken me.
Built on an intricate foundation
Overlooking from the past
Buried with discontent
be strong and endure
Hot embers fill the air, the fire dancing wild
The taste of smoke in our lungs
Hard to deny a static revolution of pursuit
our confidence drained
Guidance is enough to salvage more than
what’s at hand. Forsaken me.
Built on an intricate foundation
overlooking from the past
Buried with discontent
be strong and endure
Cast us away to be left in dismay
One says expect another disillusion
Why try when the signs all point to life.
