Sour

Open up, stench comes in
Buries deep in my skin
Sours all I can taste
Was it all just a waste
Never be free again
Water rise up until I don’t even dare to
Never be caged again
Water rise up until I don’t even have to breathe
Find the source, cut it out
Bleach the walls, strip the grout
Finally gone, I can breath
Ignore the hint of sour seeds
Never be free again
Water rise up until I don’t even dare to
Never be caged again
Water rise up until I don’t even have to breathe
Never be free again
Water rise up until I don’t even dare to
Never be caged again
Water rise up until I don’t even have to breathe

Must Be a Dream

Light peeking in
Lift out of my home
I can’t begin
On my own again
My own again
This can’t be real
I’m upside down
It melts away
But where’s the ground
The ground
It’s dark and quiet, I can’t describe it
Must be a dream
I hear some noises, can’t make out the voices
Must be a dream, must be a dream
Back in my room
Bit confused
Seems something else
Put me in cruise
In cruise
Well, that was weird
Dream within a dream
I lay back down
Light peeks in again
Not again
It’s dark and quiet, I can’t describe it
Must be a dream
That voice again, what is the plan
Must be a dream, must be a dream
Must be a dream, must be a dream, must be a dream, must be a dream

Blight of ‘71
03:13
|

Loneliness; Desperate for a cure
Happiness; The first drug she bought without a thought
Hopelessness; numb it away, numb it away
How did it come to this; Distant memory from long ago
Lock her up, throw away the key, she’s a blight on society
Take your finger and plug the dam, look back down, you don’t have a hand
Emotionless; singular purpose is sheltering
Fearlessness; whatever it takes to cloak the pain
Freedom lost; Stolen away without a thought
What’s the cost? Millions disgraced, left to rot
Lock her up, throw away the key, she’s a blight on society
Take your finger and plug the dam, look back down, you don’t have a hand
Since 1971, we’ve been under the gun
Claimed our personal space, my body’s mine to disgrace
Since 1971, we’ve been under the gun
Claimed our personal space, my body’s mine to disgrace, my body's mine
The war on drugs is a war on all Americans.
We are all suspects, we are all suspects
Comply, Comply, Comply, Comply, Comply, Comply, Comply, Comply

Brilliance
04:36
|

Race to the end, always closing in
Wheels spinning, hounding the grey again
Pages litter the ground, casualties of time
Urgency of youth, blindly undermines
Pinpoints of light, stars break up the night
Constellation of moments, I felt alive
What it amounts to, what it amounts to
Finding brilliance in the black
Finding brilliance in the black
War declared, without my consent
Enemy surrounds, faceless, important
Even now, can’t break from this pull
Chasing the end, ill-fated, fleeting and full
Pinpoints of light, stars break up the night
Constellation of moments, I felt alive
What it amounts to, what it amounts to
Finding brilliance in the black
Finding brilliance in the black
Finding brilliance in the black
Grippin’ too tight
Back into my mind
Grippin’ too tight
Back into my mind
Mind
Mind
Mind

Casualty of Gravity
05:06
|
|||
|
Crumpled, tattered, ripped in two, used to hover beside you, orbit softly, orbit softly
Now we’re staring at the floor, still pretending there is more, still pretending there is more
Ripped stitch, no fix, teeth underneath
Legs move, blood rush, can’t fucking breath
A casualty of gravity, turn it off
Needing, no retreating, charred moth belief
Lifetimes flicker in my eyes, slip in silent like a spy, no consent, no consent
Unseen forces grab at me, twitching, pulling violently, whispering, whispering
Ripped stitch, no fix, teeth underneath
Legs move, blood rush, can’t fucking breath
A casualty of gravity, turn it off
Needing, no retreating, charred moth belief
Destroy it all
Consume the walls
Strange laughter, gets faster
Till nothing else is heard
Destroy it all
Consume the walls
Strange laughter, gets faster
Till nothing else is heard
