Work our bodies to the ground
Feelin nothin but the sound
Mortal soul your lack of grace
Drain the poison out
Cruel world you’ll never change
Say you love us but you don’t
Say you need us but you won’t
Clear a way
Jesus watchin’ from the walls
We’re downin’ pharmaceuticals
We don’t do what anybody says
But we do it all
When we want to
Cruel world you’ll never change
Say you love us but you don’t
Say you need us but you won’t
Who are they?
All the human animals
Causal, mean and casual
Force of nature, she’s our cruel teacher
It’s alright, pay the price
Unconscious minds aligned to say well
Who are you to even try?

Crystal Ship

Before you slip into unconsciousness
I'd like to have another kiss
Another flashing chance at bliss
Another kiss, another kiss
The days are bright and filled with pain
Enclose me in your gentle rain
The time you ran was too insane
We'll meet again, we'll meet again
Oh tell me where your freedom lies
The streets are fields that never die
Deliver me from reasons why
You'd rather cry, I'd rather fly
The crystal ship is being filled
A thousand girls, a thousand thrills
A million ways to spend your time
When we get back, I'll drop a line

Behind the Sun
03:58
|

I’ve been holdin’ back for so long
Tamed and shamed
For something that feels wrong
Can I have my space
And fly over it all
Can I have my place
Or will it always follow?
What have I become?
Can it be undone?
Nowhere else to run
I’m the shade behind the sun
Behind the sun
Ohh ahh
Ohh ahh
Burn that shame in the stellar flame any way
Burn that shame in the stellar flame anyway
Burn that shame in the stellar flame any way
Burn that shame in the stellar flame anyway
I can’t wait
For another song
To tell me that I’m wrong
When no one else will come
To my shade behind the sun
It’s here I’ll make my home
In the cold where I belong
I am home
Ohh ahh
Ohh ahh
Burn that shame in the stellar flame any way
Burn that shame in the stellar flame anyway
Burn that shame in the stellar flame any way
Burn that shame in the stellar flame anyway
I can’t wait

Fate
05:55

It’s just fate
Show me
I have to wait
Feelings
Lost on the way
I won’t ever complain
I will accommodate
Accommodate
All these years in vacant melodies
I’ve declared a war on everything
They’ll advance, my egregious enemies, but
They’re no match for my magnanimity
It’s just fate
Show me
I have to say
Feelings
Lost on the way
It’s an endurable pain
I can accommodate
Accommodate
All these years in absurd insanity
I tended fire to an iron fantasy
I’ve advanced my deceptive manifest
The cost of which I can barely reckon with
So are you ready now?
Or are you still too proud
In this pride you’ll drown, down
Never to be found
All these years, scheming my destiny
It’s all the same these illusive trajectories
If I break, and surrender my cavalry
Will I expire? Or transmute reality?
So are you ready now?
Or are you still too proud
In this pride you’ll drown, down
Never to be found
It’s just fate
It’s just fate
It’s just fate

Shine

On the sea
The sunrise
Castin’ flies
Catch the ghosts inside you
I will run
You will hide
We never find
Blinded by the same tide
Oh my love
So unkind
But you know
It’s the right thing right now
You let it burn, I’ll let it shine
And you’ll hear
Me confess
I want a better way
Truth and consequence
But you’ll find
It’s a mess
Wander unimpressed
In this endless dream
Fool like me
You know we’re not alone
Wild lives
Feral fire
Should’ve died
But I lived and met you
You were lost
I was kind
What’s on your mind
Whisper to me right now
On the sea
The sunrise
So you know
It’s the right thing right now
You let it burn, I’ll let it shine
And you’ll hear
Me profess
How I found a way
Through the loneliness
But you’ll find
Still a mess
Wander unimpressed
In this endless dream
You fools like me
You know we’re not alone
All the things you said that I needed to receive
I can never be the one you wanted me to be
You will take the fall, and I will take the blame
Cuz I will always leave ya I can never stay

Impossible

I see so well in the dark
Got a will to power to shatter your soul
And I’ll steal it back from the sharks, and you’re marked
Cuz I’m leavin on a whim
And I’ll risk everything
Did it all and I’ll do it again, cuz I’ll win
I win
If you wanted to see
A world gone wrong
Look to the sky and you will know
Cuz I see so well in the dark
Got a will to power to shatter your soul
And I’ll steal it back from the sharks, you’re marked
Cuz I’m leavin on a whim
And I’ll risk everything
Did it all and I’ll do it again, cuz I’ll win
I win
If you wanted to see
A world gone wrong
Look to the sky and you will know
Impossible
Impossible
There’s a light in your eyes
It shines on my hands
And I love to tell you it’s all wrong
Look out the window
Or at the snow yeah
It’s alright
I’m just fine
Impossible
Impossible
Impossible
There’s a light in your eyes
It shines on my hands
And I love to tell you it’s all wrong
Look out the window
Or at the snow yeah
It’s alright
I’m just fine

Treading through nightfall
Secure in my lies
I am a prisoner
Of my own disguise
I am a secret gold
Buried alive
Bearing the will of the ghosts
I am the night
You
Lay me down
Lay me down
Show me now
Show me how
You believe in me
You believe in me
You believe in me
You believe in me
Let the moon
Be our light
Let the stars
In the room
I am the one who knows
Love’s evil sides
Under its fists I cry
Into the night
I am a secret gold
Buried alive
Bearing the will of the ghosts
I am the night
You
Lay me down
Lay me down
Hold me now
Show me how
You believe in me
You believe in me
You believe in me
You believe in me
Let the moon
Be our light
Let the sun
Burn our eyes

Angel Lust

Took some time
Suppressed desires, hungry now
Let the snake, forsake this place
Take me away
Never knew it feel like that
Take the air out from my lungs
A misfortune gave me us
Angel lust
Bite my face
Hallow snake, hungry now
Leather god, forsake this place
Take me away
Never knew it feels like that
Let me die and bring me back
A misfortune gave me us
Angel lust
Angel lust
