A singular perspective
A point of view
Observation as a scalpel Of residue

I say myself in the mirror
And couldn't believe
There were endless variations of me

Its step by step one after another
That sets the pattern that you live by
And day by day is a year already
And not the pattern has become a lie

Atmospheric coloration
is doom and gloom
Molecular collisions
In a surgery room

I saw myself in a casket
Don't know whats in store
But I feel like I've died a thousand times before

Its step by step one after another
That sets the pattern that you live by
And day by day is a year already
And not the pattern has become a lie

You step out in a new direction
deciding how its time to modify
The tapestry fabric unravels
As you merge into another life

You get pushed down, in the mud
You try to fight back and get knocked down again
It's getting harder to breathe
and life drains from your face. 

You're pushing someone down, in the mud
You don't even know who you are
you keep pushing back, holding your guard
You finish the fight and the you disappear

Will it be the right time to finally ask
Where do you come from
Maybe the apple is already sour
And that's all we'll ever become

Before you leave for the night
There's something you may want to hear

I wanna believe there's a window open in your soul
I wanna believe its for me
I wanna believe you won't go
But I know I've got to die

Take the praise as its meant to be
Don't waste the time to over think
Its a short homecoming, run long in the knees
Sprouting habits behind the rink

I wanna believe there's a window open in your soul
I wanna believe its for me
I wanna believe you won't go
But I know I've got to die

Its the price we have to pay
To slave away another day
Its the will beyond ourselves
To punch a clock all by ourselves

Its all the waste that we ingest
To ruin the heart inside our chest
Less than the body
Its the soul eating itself

And how do you run if convinced you are free
Broken down in spirit
Broken down through will

Whats left in your pile of bones
How course is your ash
How abrasive have you become
How haunted is your face

You ride through me
For only you to see

And in the night you'll wonder
What can the sheering bring
But you can light a fire
And cleanse everything

So lets get the sun up
So we can burn away
Hold up this twilight
Give it to us to obey

Burning way
Burning Away
I'm Burning way
Burning Away

So lets get the sun up
So we can burn away
Hold up this twilight
Give it to us to obey

Burning way
Burning Away
I'm Burning way
Burning Away

So this time there's nothing left
For you to hide behind
This time its a simple choice
Do you live to see or die to go blind

And this is how we will burn down to ashes
And this how those ashes will be blown away

Best to be on your good graces
A swift kick will knock the fight out of you
A simple cost of pure intention
Will put the frame into view

You can't create the meaning
For what you want to see in the stars
Because you don't like the taste of truth
And that the void is riddled with scars

Sometimes you're better off alone
To settle your own score
Every time you fix a part of yourself
It grows your being at the core

In the cold night sky you can see your own breath
Maybe all you have is the air left in your chest

Yet the heat is draining away
The hard facts of entropy
A brittle pile of rock and dirt
Accreting an oasis of life

We all make mistakes
Some bleeding to the cross
We put our selves first in line
As the idol of grief and loss

And in the end you'll see
This cursed reality
One day we'll all let go
As we strike at eternity

Who had the bright idea
To put the soul up to the test
Who wants to claim favor
And be the first one to confess

And I don't wanna play anymore
I'm living on my last nerve
I don;t have hope anymore
Nothing left kept in reserve

And I don't wanna play anymore
I'm living on my last nerve
I don;t have hope anymore
Nothing left kept in reserve

When you find yourself disembodied
You'll also find what you have inside
And when you spot the all seeing eye
You'll discover what is meant to hide

Who had the bright idea
To put the soul up to the test
Who wants to claim favor
And be the first one to confess

And I don't wanna play anymore
I'm living on my last nerve
I don;t have hope anymore
Nothing left kept in reserve

And I know that what you find
Might scare you away
And I know that what you are
Will go away

And I just want to know that you're not going away
I need to hear you say it me
Say you're not going away

I got a negative balance
And checks bouncing off the walls
Got that dollar sign zodiac protocol

I've got direct deposit
For what's not enough
I'm praying at the check out
They won't call my bluff

I hope my debtors won't discover
That minus sign on my account
I'm swinging, check to check
to equalize the amount 

I've got a soul of displacement
To keep the demons out
I've got whispering illusion
That's a torturous shout

I hope my debtors won't discover
That minus sign on my account
I'm swinging, check to check
to equalize the amount 

I hope deficiency of people
Won't tear us apart at the seems
Overwhelming greed
Has pushed us all to extremes

I'm open to options
My door is the world
I'm open to promise
But the sun has curled

There's only moments between us
Before life fades to black
In another timeline
I'm string across the rack

The wrong words will rot you out
Like a poison shot into your veins
It doesn't matter what they say
You put a shell up and it fades away

Its not abnormal to feel insane
To feel the craze washing over you
And never fear the power you have
Or the potential to live up to 

Who's life is it anyway
and who's choice will you have to live with
And who's looking back at you in the mirror
Will you awaken to shatter the myth

So don't lose yourself
Don't fall on someone else's sword
Don't break for anyone
Who only cares to tear you down

There's gonna be a time or two
That someone steps up to get in your face
There's gonna be a time or two
That you might snap
And put a bitch in their place

Its not abnormal to feel insane
To feel the craze washing over you
And never fear the power you have
Or the potential to live up to

Its not a crime to want a better life
To refuse anybody's toxicity
Its not a crime to bend the rules
To manifest your reality

We are the church of a whole new order
To layer praise born of wilting faith
The land is laced with vacant shadows
And every day we're running out of space

There's gonna be some hard feelings
When we start clearing out the room
And when you hear the smoke alarms
You'll know the fire's already in bloom

There's gonna be some hard feelings
When we start clearing out the room
And when you hear the smoke alarms
You'll know the fire's already in bloom

It's a big lie
For the fat of the land
To tie down
what can't be hauled away

It's only offered once
And one vaccination
So take your shot
And get on the bus

Will it be how you are to be seen
Will it be up to us to believe

You'll never know how you feel inside
Until you force yourself to open your eyes
You've only got a chance or two
Before they forget about you
Take a gamble on yourself
And don't leave any regrets

A kid cries and dies inside
The wolf is wrapped in the shepherd's skin
You come next to the butcher's block
Right on time for your glory to shine

Now's the chance to set the record straight
For anyone who violates you
Get your feeling rights, and your bell set tight
Be somebody you resonate to

You wake up in a hospital bed
A spoiled husk of what used to be
The room is filled. a crowd of believers
All who claim your same epiphany

I can't look at the world
The same way that I used to do
I know that I'm a shadow
Keeping watch over what I do

I can't shake the feeling
That I'm the ghost still haunting me
All versions of myself
All alive simultaneously

I can't change who I am
And I'd never humor the thought
I am the product of design
An obsolescence astronaut

Now's the chance to set the record straight
For anyone who violates you
Get your feeling rights, and your bell set tight
Be somebody you resonate to

I only wanted to feel
Only want to know
That my love is not a prison
Jailing secrets I could never show

I only wanted to give
Only wanted to share
That I earned my broken halo
When I found somebody to spare

It's dragging me down
Like a quick sand vortex in my heart
And it's crushing me down
Like the darkness swallowing a star

And if the sky is already falling
There's little left that anyone can do
Align the cruise controls to the sun
And surf the solar avenue

And if the barrier is already broken
Exposing filth all across creation
Its only time until the body glows
Saturated in radiation

And through the nova life begins again
another spin around a quark or two
Some people think that they can live forever
As it turns out, that's almost true

And if the barrier is already broken
Exposing filth all across creation
Its only time until the body glows
Saturated in radiation

I got a love I can't let go
A subtle warmth creeping in at the edge
A microcosm lost inside of me
Tiny promises giving the pledge

I got a love poisoning me
A sea of spirits in mutiny
And as stability burns and rips
Terminations sentence eclipse

Keep a white knuckle grip while holding the rails
Don't stray away while facing the blaze
Keep you eyes shut tight as the heat ignites
Tuck into the wave until its red shift life
