Castaways

Whoa!
Whoa!
Whoa!
Whoa!
Pure plated gold, prancing to her own beat
Crackles to life, painting our cobbled streets
Azure ocean hair, parading cascade
Stranding us on shore, she sailed away
Into the night dancing and swaying
Whimsy hypnosis, charming castaways
Intoxicated lungs fill with air
Sweeter than smoke displacing all despair
Saturated winds pervades our heads
Drenching every thought, numbing all our dread
Into the night we dance and sway
Whimsy hypnosis, charming castaways
Into the night trapped in a daze
Easing all our dysphoria
Ah!
Our scattered ashes line the halls
Burst into flames in a heavy rainfall
Into the night we dance and sway
Whimsy hypnosis, charming castaways
Into the night trapped in a daze
Chasing dreams of euphoria

To the Steets

I’ll admit I’m just a mess
Angered, beat down, endless stress
Of a life I can’t control
From the things I won’t let go
Locked down, now I’m bustin’ loose
Run amok with no excuse
I’ve got a name to make
I’ll give less than I take
Run me through and take me under
Drop this shit that’s led to nowhere
Take me back to the streets!
To the city lights and skyline scenes
Take me back to the streets!
It holds my highs and beliefs
Held this dog down long enough
Dragged around by the scruff
Bred from hate, name unknown
Got no place to call my home
Blaspheme now and bite the hand
Pushing back on all demands
Clear the path my right of way
Purpose-led empowered stray
We’re a pedigree
A special breed
Once in a lifetime oddity
Purge ourselves of old medicine
Break free from inhibitions
Take me back to the streets!
(To the streets)
To the city lights and skyline scenes
Take me back to the streets!
(To the streets)
It holds my highs and beliefs
Take me back to the streets!
(To the streets)
Where vagabonds and nomads meet
Take me back to the streets!
(To the streets)
Gutter beds and alley suites
Ah!
Ah!
Ah!

It Came for Us
03:46
|

I’ve had enough today
I’ve got to get away
From a self inflicted benign mass
Growing from a dark and distant past
Crowded thoughts love company
They invite misery
Demons do what they do best
Terrors ripping through my chest
Emaciated dystrophy
Double tongued, gives me the creeps
We fall forever into blinding fog
Further down the void with no control
Symbiotic apathy
Takes the night and drowns the day
Shadows run up all the walls
Answering a devil’s call
Weeping hands, no air to breathe
Suffocating empathy
Body embalmed, lashes from their claws
We fall forever into blinding fog
Further down the void with no control
We fall forever into blinding fog
Further down the void with no control
We fall forever into blinding fog
Further down the void with no control

A Simple Price
02:09

I read a book on apathy
Then gave away all of my things
It seemed a simple price to pay
So that everything won’t mean a god damn thing to me
I’m giving up on listening
Bite my tongue, let it bleed
Down my throat it’s hard to breathe
Now everything’s a god damn catastrophe
You better take it with a grain of salt
Letting go of the things we want
Unraveling we come undone
With nothing left we decay and rot
Everything don’t mean a god damn thing to me
Everything don’t mean a god damn thing

Rotten

I’m not mad, I’m barely sad
All my guts have turned black
Rotten on the inside
Flies and flesh, horrid stench and putrified
I won’t last, I’m metastasized
I’m nothing, you’re nothing
Not destined for something
No, nothing at all, not anything at all
I’ve come to my senses
That we’re all just senseless
Letting myself fall helps nobody at all
I won’t be forgotten
Face down in a coffin
It’s been said that when we’re dead
The flame we held inside
Consumes those still alive
I’ve come to my senses
That we’re all just senseless
Letting myself fall helps nobody at all
I’ve come to my senses
Dropped useless defenses
Letting myself fall helps nobody at all
Letting myself fall helped nobody at all
