Right now like a step outside
My heart beats genocide
Tearing out all the crippled walls
Drawing fire from the mortal flaws

To take it in on the chin, don't want to face it
We generate our debate to try to place it
Fear the eyes of the blind and the fallen
We cauterize as the dream comes crashing down

And like a poison will coerce you
To the very brink of salient pathologies
Your own disease
And with the whole wide world against you
Is it any wonder that it brings you to your knees?

Make war on the fractured climes
Where the infirmed all run on time
I've cried for much less than you
And taken all your pain

Just like a lie you want to throw in the fire
That's how it feels to be exposed as a liar
You fall in line when there's nothing real
It takes hold of everything you feel

Your fear surrounds my soul
Your fear creates my light
Your words are not my life
No time to get it right
Your words are not my life
No time, gotta live but there's no

Time will take me down, it breaks me
Drowning in civility and losses justified
Words like tokens, eyes wide open
Staring down the epitaphs of virtue long denied

. . .


Inside the shallow selfish rhymes I forced myself alive
There's a sound as your desperation burns me to survive
I can't decide
Stay away from me, I'm never letting go
Discord desire, I'll set this life on fire
I won't forget the other side
And all the lies around your broken pride

Left to drown inside your sorrows
There's nothing to remember or deny
And it will not afford you shelter
Nobles endeavors which we served
We complicate, exterminate
We set it off
We set ourselves alight

Can you recall how you and I were going to paint those faded walls
So what became of all the distant dreams that would intoxicate us all
I can't recall
See it now I'm coming for you
My life is so small
Some things I don't feel at all
I won't forget the other side
And all the lies around your broken pride

There's no reward because we never tried
To justify in another's eyes
To spend a life in pursuit of truth
We suffer lies and the edges wear away

You've got a name but you're not yourself

. . .


The final scene of your production
Your destruction
Just when the solitude about you
Drove your symptoms to an end

Did they find you?
Try to break through
Dissipate you
I know it rained the last time anyone
Recalled your voice at all

For the ones who broke your heart
And those who fell before you
Somehow I feel like it's all my fault
So will you come out tonight?
And share yourself in silence
It's cold out there but you're not alone
You're not alone

You could never reach your destination
Moderation
It's like something so elusive
As it festered in your soul
All the questions
And suggestions
You were left with
And in your abscence we all breathe a sigh
But we still remember
Remember you

. . .


Locked inside
A step in the sun
Losing time
But controlling the one

That feral genius
Is sick to the touch
To sever a secret
We love it too much

I see the innocent swell
Then they put me back in my cell
There's no permanent law
I can't forget what I saw

That's right.
What do I know?

And maybe just about the time that I catch my breath
I remember all the things that led down to it

You tell me it's wrong
To try to pretend
This subversion
Won't happen again

The weight of indifference
It swings for the fence
At least we can try
Forever in debt

And the eyes of the world turn pale
Don't tell me how the price will fall justified on time
Just a measure of the proxy line stealing what's been said
Depreciated in the righteous vein sold on down the line
We're keeping weight on the arterial flow a static piece in time

. . .


We're caving in around a portion of progress
We suffer sounds through a hole in the sign
Climbing down where the pressures we purchase
Can we pretend that it meant anything at all?

So we drive
We re-align
And tell ourselves everything's alright
As we keep licking all the spit off our shoes

We can change the world around us
And put ourselves to sleep
But we don't change for nothing anyway
Always gotta be the biggest thing
Keep chasing the golden ring
And we sell ourselves for nothing

It's alive but there's no destination
To pray alone before I shudder to sleep
It's everything I never turned my back on
I never meant to end up this far alone

It's arrived
We see it's time
To be the ones who'll never fall in line
Because this was never meant for your kind

Pressure lies
In your mind
And in the end it cuts away our time
Too full of self for us to recognize

Cross your heart
Watch your back
Turn your eyes away
Where the strains of the past won't betray your ways

. . .


Too many want everything for free
Or maybe it's just me
I've lost my time
Now I'm just static in your eyes

Too many crowded in my view
And I always knew
I'm wrong this time
Always just static in your eyes
In your eyes

. . .


There's still a million things I wish I'd never said
And I know that it's never sacred
But the fear the shadowed yesterday still haunts me to the core
And I wish I'd had the state of mind to brace for so much more
But that's just me

God help me strip away what's come between the two of us
And maybe we can stay friends forever
Because you know me inside out
And it breaks my heart to pass without a word
After all this time

I'm the one who stood beside you on your wedding day
I don't think I've ever been so proud
But I allowed myself to slip away and the air became unkind
And now even though we've made our peace
We still can't make the time
And that's just us

Grown tired of building fences
So sick of silent walls
When I feel just like a traitor to it all
I hope you hear it someday
I'll be a better friend
Because I want you there in the end
Too high a price to pay
Without a thing to say
I know I'm better by your side
Than I'll ever be alone
Without a thing to say

. . .


High life as the urban screams
Chill the air of all the in betweens
There's fear pasted on the fading walls
Nobody cares once the surfeit calls this time

And desire pays
Never measured out in days
Blood slips between my dreams
This mortal stain

Out there the winds blow cold
Down lies that we've been trading on
I find myself some static room
To ride out what we've made
We'll never save

Just keep it all inside
We struggle down for nothing less
And it feels like trains within our souls

Feral eyes I can hardly see
As I pass I feel them watching me
And how soon the fear will fly
Feel their fetid breath as I pass by

Catch your breath where the city dies
Miles past all the tepid lives
We must resign ourselves to all we've been
The tragedies from now to then

Cause of fortune there's a moment
Stand or fall it's a crime in progress
Dissolution, no pretension
Celebrate our sick inventions now

. . .


Trying patience wasted on the dead
Sounds from another room
Mark the end, fill my head
Resurrection like places on a line
Passing the wasted time
Lives gone wrong for too long

When they found me
In lies they surround me
All the insane ways
We qualify all disgrace

This is wretched, infirmed, and in decline
We brace our contentions
Rank and file kept in line
Trepidation waiting on the end
Bleeding with virtue
Lust to fall sacred friend

. . .


oo many lies when I was seventeen
And now I'm keeping up time with you
Short sounds of apocalypse
And my world's torn out of view
It's always the same
They want to lock you down inside
They won't let you try

I realize it's all the same when the lights dim down to pray
Through the eyes we paralyze but the world won't stop today
Did you rise for someone else?
Were you afraid to be yourself?
We've waited all our lives for the chance to come undone

We spit asides and we ruminate
About the false sense of it all
Life's short and the spirit falters
All the weak will do is crawl
In broken time
To conclusions we've assigned

We sacrifice and burn
To steal convention all away
We try to paint the future
Somehow we sterilize today

With an audience complicit
We change the lies to gold
In our septic disaffection
Still function as we're told
As we're told

. . .


So difficult to embrace or qualify
Find resolve as the earth keeps turning
Don't tell it seems too real
We're satisfied with the lies that we think and feel

Too fine a point to arrange
When dealing with obsession
To put a face on the pain
I will try to embrace it
Can't pull away from the mains
As everyone keeps drowning
This time it's worse than the signs
We framed then failed to identify

There's a cloud like a virulent storm
We justify all the air we're burning
To destroy like a petulant child
What was once so alive in a cultured mind

Clouds line the ethereal sky
But the air's too thin and nobody knows why
Time's gone down on the sentinel's watch
Brace for the fall because it's never going to stop

And we were never in control
With betrayal inside our souls
With no solutions for tomorrow
And it drives me away from my dreams
And broken pieces of today

There's a scene inside my head
I see a world's decay
Can't turn my face away
Or keep up walls of silence
For every mother's child
A commitment to recall
This sentence we submit
A future for us all

. . .


She pounds out a frantic pulse
We count up all the baseless laws to get by
But she's grown
She's grown so cold and left between
Haunted by what might have been
In a different life
Surrounded by what never was

In life alone
We feel these claws upon us
We're so alone
Rejection desiccates these eyes

The dawn strips the shapes to gray
The destitute resign that way
Just the same
They'll never be the same
But now she's miles away from those involved
