I The Sun 04:12
2.
A voice called from nowhere and waited for Reply with all patience and grace ignored There was confusion in his brain Said he forgot his name The sun must have burned out his corneas His focus was drifting from daze to dreams Then he turned without warning He pointed at me and said You too shall see The words crawled around in my head all day I shivered each time that I heard them replayed It was the eyes that pierced through mine Won't fade away in time The noise was incessant it shook me up I scratched at my ears just to make it stop Then collapsed in a corner In total disorder I fell into horror The answer came to me revealed itself within my dream A flood of blinding light and then I could no longer see These eyes burn Bereft of all your rage You'll take your place inside a cage

Zig Zag 07:04
Do you remember, has it gone away? In the moments between when your mind's running Racing astray In the zig zag of our lives It's amazing anyone survives Long enough to see the sunrise
4.
Lost Mind 04:46
Sinking deeper in this warm familiar place Finding solace in all that you wish to erase Here at last where the skin crawling finally dies For an instant you claim the prize Giving into temptation again Because you're too weak to defend Sooner or later the need for another Pulls you under Sinking deeper in this warm familiar place Finding solace in all that you wish to erase Always a slave to the killer on which you rely Try as you might but it just won't die All I need is all I no longer recieve Has no effect anymore

Blacktop 06:06
Feeling most alive under clear night sky When the air is clear well it's here I feel the sharpest There's a place I'd rather be I think you'd like to see We could run and hide We could ride away unnoticed Feeling most alive under clear night sky When I reach top speed I won't need to heed your warning There's a place I'd rather be I'm sure you'll like to see We could run all night We could rest in the light of morning To escape society I'll be the first to leave If we want to survive We better Run, hide Accelerate away, I'm going I can't stay Run, hide

Solstice 12:50
Never care to look back as we all fly past Every milestone in life on the sharp edge of a knife Watch yourself grow old and tiring Your will is fading Those not busy being born are busy dying
7.
Four AM 06:33
Four AM and wide awake Counting sheep but still I can't sleep Barely aware, can't help but stare Trying to decide if the walls are grey or white I can't say that I'm enjoying my stay In this state of decay Waiting, wasting away Just waiting for the day that I walk up to the gate Push until my palms run with blood Waiting, wasting away Numb, stoned haze, hypnotized Dumb, scared, I am medicated, Isolated Freedom is a mystery, hopeless distant memory While the world around is turning I am here in stasis yearning For my escape Make no mistake When these shackles are torn away I will be king I'll be keeping busy living So then someone else can kiss the fucking ring

Primer 04:42
9.
The Muse 08:32
Catch the Muse when it rears its head See it rising and falling again There's an illusion of restraint Deciding my fate Leaves me broken and seeking the answer As the barriers walls growing stronger I won't be able to explain my vision today Chasing but never reaching through I am searching for you Seems that the well is running dry Maybe it just won't fly I am controlled by fear Far away but it feels so near You're the stranger I'm the wanderer I see no change Trapped in the haze Top of the page Erase it all now Start over again I feel like I'm under duress Got put discomfort to rest Get this weight up off my chest Too far to back down now You can see where the light emanates Just let yourself be taken in Out comes the Muse again While I'm asleep in bed I spring away I'm seeing red Out comes the Muse again My unreliable friend to help me see this to the end
