Torch

I can see your eyes
Back and forth this ain't no way to fly
Making this your right
All this time you waste away my life
Back and forth tonight
Ain't no way to fly
Chorus
Here we stay all night
Cause it seems the holiest of nights
Lead the way your light
To right the reasons save your life
Here we stay all night
The walls you run for pushed aside
Lead the way your light
Cause it seems the holiest of nights
When you're criticized, you will do just anything to survive
Water in your eyes, you can see quite clearly to your demise
My insecticide, flushing out my psyche clear my mind
Fundamental lies, all this time you waste away my life
Back and forth tonight
Ain't no way to fly

Daze

When you walk away
Leaving me the same old reasons to stay
Only yesterday
Came and went you gave it all away
Yesterday
Came and went in a daze
Yesterday
Only yesterday
Came and Went you gave it all away
Like a hand grenade
Once you're activated you can't be strayed
You're a hurricane
Mass destruction nothing stands in the way
Only yesterday
Came and went you gave it all away
Chorus
I can see your eyes
Deep inside the answers there no lies
Creating this divide
Overestimating my own compliance
Guitar Solo
I can see your eyes
Deep inside the answers there no lies
Creating this divide
Left alone to toy with my own device

Black Sensations
03:32
|
|||
Shadows on the wall
Face I can't recall
I'm in the beasts jaws
It makes my skin crawl
Patches in my brain
Never feel the same
Keeping me on call
Planning my downfall
You can't see what you've done to me
Honey black sensations like you won't believe
Kill the power watch it stall
Flank the masses as they crawl
Feed the demon side and fear the fratricide
It's all for one not one for all
Chorus
Guitar solo
Falling into line
Out of space and time
I'm in the beasts jaws
It makes my skin crawl
Scratches down your face
Never out of place
Keeping me on call
Planning my downfall
Chorus
You can't see what it means to me
Darling black sensations that you can't perceive

Stay Home
03:48
|
|||
Stay home and wait with me
And watch this suffering
A globe style darkening
Stay home and wait with me
repeat
Time passed me by just in a second like a blink right in your eye
One passerby catches a minute of your time, the universe floats by
At home we waste away
It's time to seize the day
Unite or all decays
Push on for better days

Secret Side
04:18
|
|||
It's better off this way, we've lost another day
The trees are swinging birds are singing
Summer times in sway
So take care what you see, accept this offering, the time is now we've said our vows so listen to us sing
From our hearts, we won't drift apart
Slow breeze believe it's felt a million miles away
Softly scream the words you're struggling to say
Those mean the most so don't you ghost the ones who wake these things in you
Show us the secret side of you
So here we are again, uncertainty it lends
We've crashed and burned and took a turn and now we're born again
So think of what you see, and how it ought to be
This back and forth is outta sorts so listen to us sing

Fifth Degree
05:31
|
|||
Wait, what you see
Is just the truest form of me if you can't find it set me free
But believe, it's in the fifth degree and it's the truest friend that I can be
In a way, we're just floating in utmost dismay
what you say, well me I am confused like you
And it's true, we've seen a few
Of those years, they go by
Back and forth it's just a last resort
This is our final retort
Summer day that you just cast away
We won't be silenced no more
We define these years gone by
By letting out what sits inside
A final song a last request
The perfect part to fit the rest
With you and it's true
We've seen a few
Of those years that go by
They sit inside of our hearts and they last
You can forgive the past is the past
Think of that

Fine Wine
02:45
|
|||
Through all this time I was yours you were mine
I draw this line with my blood drink this wine
You wanted more and I gave it to you
You wanted more it was true
Unwanted expectations
Clear out your mind frustrations
Woah x2
But baby please can't you see you're the finest to me
Across the sea space and time we don't mind we will meet
Your hand in mine cross the line hearts are blind I can't see
But baby please can't you see you're like fine wine to me
I wasn't sure then my heart hit the floor
Opened the door we were lost nevermore
I can't conceive what it was in between
I can't conceive what it means

A Call to Action
03:24
|
|||
I measure you with bloodshot eyes
What better view to see with
These are the best days of our lives
A day with you spent in disguise
It's nothing new to sit with
It's time to open up your mind
To find a better place and time, to gain a different frame of mind
A culture falling in decline
To cultivate to grow and learn that's when society will turn
The pages of the book it's burned
To you this may concern
And now we quicken up our pace
This is a call to action before the wrong ones take our place
And I'll still see you here and there
The fork was in the road but love is the one thing we all share

Hanging it Up
04:10
|
|||
I don't know what it means to be true
Back to the start now with you
I can't see what the future may hold
It's real but it's not set in stone
Close your eyes and you'll see
As I'm sitting here braving the cold
Ripping the words from my soul
Now I ruminate ponder the past
Knowing the feeling won't last
Dried up cracked up berated and torn
Nothing left over to mourn
Now I feel so lucid and frail
Slammed by the bars my own jail
Close your eyes you'll see
Take the pain away for another day
Masquerade it hurts so hard to be true
Throw it all away for a different day
Wait is over time to hang up the noose
Don't walk away, don't walk away
Cause you know we all know this ain't you
It's time to hang up the noose

Twitch

|

You're running around
Playing all the same things on repeat
I'm coming to town
Would it be all bad if we could meet
Don't wanna waste away my life with you
I'm coming around, won't be too long fore I'm complete
I want it I need it I'm never gonna leave it
I want it I need it I'm never gonna leave it
It's outta touch and way too much this back and forth repeating such a drag
I'm never gonna leave it
Before too long
History it all comes back again
You wrote this song
I admit I just picked up the pen
Don't wanna waste away my life with you
I'm coming around, won't be too long fore I'm complete
Chorus
Guitar solo
Chorus
Want it and I need it and I'm never gonna leave it
Want it and I need it and I'm never gonna leave it
It's back and forth and outta sorts you're so conceited that it hurts you're outta touch and way too much this back and forth repeating such a drag

One Makes Five

One makes five if you try
Watch this life pass you by
Fuck with me you will see
What this life's meant to be
Seasons change follow suit
Cut through time if you choose
Full intention to deceive
Make things right come with me
Full disclosure of the soul
Swallow pride make it whole
Somethings written on the wall
Changing colors like the fall
Chorus
Guitar solo
Seasons change starts with you
Transcend time if you choose
Somethings written on the wall
Changing colors heed the call

Chasing Angels
05:16
|
|||
Whispers make me wanna shout
Trapped inside I wanted out
What you give you want it
Co dependent on it
Silence speaking much too loud
What it takes makes me feel only stray to what is real
Always try justify what I give to you you steal
While I tried to be like you
We'd be chasing angels soon
What I died to help you see
Woke this animal in me
Room so quiet I could scream
Less you talk the more it bleeds
White noise talking louder
Wasted shotgun powder
Waking nightmares in your dreams
Pre chorus
While I tried to be like you
We'd be chasing angels soon
What I died to help you see
Woke this animal in me
Summer thrives in winters grave
This oppressive nature stays
What I died to help you see
Woke this animal in me

Full Grown Now
04:24
|
|||
Complacent vices on my hand contrived divisive master plan
Mislead deceivers non believers and they're waiting for the call
Pushed past the point of no return who set me up to watch me burn
You'll never hurt us can't reverse us watch your presidency fall
Always believe the writings on your sleeve
Not hard to read when written honestly
Step back to see the panoramic scene
It's time to leave
We are full grown now
Even though they cast me out
In the upside down
Split the earth just to put us underground
You can't see us and can't defeat us cause
We are full grown now
I'll pry these vices from my hands discard the popular demand
It's not the first time we've been cursed by circumstances unforeseen
Push through the valley of the damned emerged a bitter callous man
I've never seen it but believing it is no issue for me
Our ways never changed yet feel so different the diffidence once riddled here is gone
But flames remain, it burns too much to taste

Sunrise

Wait and see just what tomorrow brings
Place and time will to receive
But the tigers they come at night
And they push you to get you to fight
Hush go to sleep see what the future just might bring
Stay on your time one with the sunrise
It's deified and it's rectified it's a bastard child of night
Pull the plug like you're on the run fight or flight
Call to find forced from the outside
Balled too tight won't let me in
But the bastards they come at night
And they push you to get you to fight
