Entropy

After all is said and done
I'll still be here waiting
I believe that entropy
Is calling back at me
Bend but don't break
A little solitude is all it takes
But it's not working
I can't see a reason why
Take your time, forge on alone
All who wander are not lost
An introspective point of view
The comfort deep within
Call out to me
Follow close without a second thought
Understand for what it's worth
What you fear it's no surprise
Choices you make
Create tiny ripples in their wake
Your weary eyes fall heavy
Leaving all of this behind

I know a place where the pretty people go to
Hide from issues with their self-esteem, it's so
Hard to see, but yet you just can't look away, no
Can you
See through
The veil?
Engineering your exact opinion
They manufacture your complacency, it's too
Good to be true, you're the product if it's free, just
Face it
Shameless
Hatred

The Lovely End
03:02
|

|
Sentient warnings
Left unheeded
Ancient relics
Smashed to pieces
Smoldering ruins
Of yesterday's bliss
Delicate balance
Falling apart
Escalation has me stressed out
Man's ignorant folly is snuffed out
Flagrant fallacies
Of infinite growth
Mankind's progress
Grinds to a halt
When Atlas shrugs
Now I think I see the lovely end
The violent undoing, mother says reset

You took the 4:15
Without so much as goodbye
Left for the city
With stars in your eyes
And hope in your heart
No regrets in your mind
Now you're falling apart, yeah
Now you hurt inside
You're something good to me
Someone I can relate to personally
I think it's hard for you to see
How much you truly mean
Tell me what you said, yeah we're losing time
Falling out of body and out of mind
Yeah, you take that poison, you make me cry
Now I'll just keep watch on the sunset
I am alone
But I am alive
Now I'm stuck in your wake
I can't escape
And it pains me to say
That you're losing my faith
I can't hold on
No I won't anymore
Seems I'm just a memory
That you left at the door
You were something special
The first and now the last
Go ahead, you said, we're all out of time
It's a mad world now, just a wretched hive
And you make me hurt, yeah you make me cry
But I still keep watch on the sunset
I am alone
But I am alive

And so the blind man shooting at the world
His anger engulfs the weak, the slow
How low?
Broken cross around his neck
Reminder of his righteousness
It's all unknown
Come now, child, your sympathy
Will leave you bleeding, broken, and alone
Hollow
We've arrived at nonsense
It's hysteria, the news will tell you so
The silence is deafening
An echo of reality
Forced upon unsuspecting innocence
Dreaming lucid
Broken lives and shattered love
Weightless bullets trim your hair
Turning your blood to mercury, so numb
How come?
The icy winds of reason
Cannot pierce the walls they've built around your soul
Below
Twisting vision before your eyes
To mask the screams of Parkland's heavy skies
Enough
Conscience hangs in tattered threads
Suspended animation, it's for show

You (Josh's Groove)

Sitting by the fireside
Waiting patiently for something new to
Show its ugly head
And stomp out all my inhibitions
Now I wouldn't be more than a passing glance
If I hadn't said my piece, but
Now you remember me
As a lesson learned in futility
You
Silence in the gallery
I don't wanna think about it, no
Now I wouldn't be much more than a memory
Left out rotting inside your brain, but
You still remember me
As a lesson learned in exasperation
You
Now what in the hell do you think gives you the right
To address me in that way?
You beat me down, I'm broken
And give me all of your disgust

Life has always been
A struggle with normal
And if you don't pretend
It can control you
Get a funny feeling
This could all be real
How do I contend
If I don't feel?
How soon bliss begins
Beyond the bitter end
To find where solace is
In the heart or in the head
Too many times
Spoke too soon
Too many lines
Tangled fuse
Darkness in my mind
Giving way to light
Stormy seas of stress
But I refuse to fight
Take me back instead
To vacant stares and laughter
The only thing I dread
Is waking up

Without Warning

Can't get you out of my head
I tried control alt delete
But if I didn't have you
Then, I guess, where would I be?
I let the water burn my skin
So that I can feel again
Let you into my head
To replace the thoughts of losing
I'm too numb
To feel my pain
Too fucked up
Going insane
You make the silence speak
You make me question everything
Did you ever really love
Did you ever really feel the same
I let the time fall into place
You let me fall right on my face
No one to say goodnight or good morning
Now my bed's empty without warning
Your memory haunts me now
A heart, so filled with ice
It brings me to the ground
Your love hidden in disguise
You're like a ghost to me now
I've got no words to say
In this water I drown
I guess I'll slowly decay

You're lying there, adorned in blue
Surreal how you don't look like you
I keep expecting you to smile back at me
You never do
It's not my place to reason why
Reality can be so unforgiving
And it's not fair
What's come to be
Flow a river forth unto me
Send along the waves a song of hope and disbelief
A life far from complete
I'll try my best your memory to keep
Things that go unseen
The kindness in your heart
Patience in your nature
You've known it from the start

Falling, falling down
Underneath your spell I lay intrigued
My heart's been on the ground
I've been overwhelmed by misery
Careful baby
Don't get caught up
You'll be wasting all your time with me
Apple of my eye
You just wring me out, you're truly something
Cast all doubts aside
Let me hold you close
Gentle whisper
Come down slowly
Leave it up to life and go fulfill your dreams
Elevate me now
The music in your sighs what breaths of grace
I can hardly tell
If this is what I want - just wait and see
