Moon Stood Watch

VERSE 1
And so it begins
Another means to an end
Medicate into submission
Ignore all intuition
CHORUS
I had a dream last night,
As the moon stood watch.
The skyline set ablaze
The sun lost and misplaced
I'll come back one day
Back into what I used to be
If I ever was, but for now
Plan my killing spree
VERSE 2
Coalesce in repression
Blood stained walls confine
Step out of reason
As sanity unwinds
CHORUS 2
I had a dream last night,
As the moon stood watch.
The skyline set ablaze
The sun lost and misplaced
I'll come back one day
Back into what I used to be
If I ever was, but for now
Plan my killing spree
BRIDGE
And so it began
A hiding place when we ran\
These repressive walls confine\
They crumble as I unwind
Watch me burn
Feel the crash
The pain is real
Hold up your flag
Carry on for the carrion of our sins
Deception comes from within
My absolute intention
Is a final intervention
CHORUS 3
I had a dream last night,
As the moon stood watch.
The skyline set ablaze
The sun lost in a rage

VERSE 1
Common ground in the point of collapse
A boiling point found in the collective
Not a generation but a rate of motion
The will of the majority infected
PRE-CHORUS
A Promise of Potential
Never means anything to me
Falling short the eventual reality
CHORUS
Unity in outrage
A single cause for a million choices
99 out of a hundred
Will never share one voice
VERSE 2
Deafening silence slowly grows
Solace outside of the comforts that they know
No more lies, used to subdue and bound
A torch to burn this, whole world to the ground
PRE-CHORUS
A Promise of Potential
Never means anything to me
Falling short the eventual reality
CHORUS
Unity in outrage
A single cause for a million choices
99 out of a hundred
Will never share one voice
BRIDGE SECTION 1
If everything just falls
Who notices when I bring down the walls
nothing left to confess
The cycle separates nothing from the rest
BRIDGE SECTION 2
Trapped in perpetual
Struggle to be empowered
Atomic desires
Devour the will of a coward
Rotting flesh of a million
Left to spoil in the air
To the streets in masks
Molotovs carried by the welfare
VERSE 3
A shared will in the moment of destruction
The limits exposed on dissection
Be the ca talyst for insurrection
The top prevails while the rest die of infection
ENDING
Is it evil to enable or deprive
Better to teach or deny
Should we enlighten or enslave
Allow a future not engraved

Black and White

VERSE 1
Awakened to the sound of my solitude
The earth moves with another magnitude
Alarms in the distance as the building shakes
All I can think about is our mistake
CHORUS
Our back against the wall
Side by side as it all begins to fall
Our last defense turns to debris
One last breath while LA Breaks into the sea
Each tie we build back the world together
From collapse we grow into something better
Lost in the dark but I fell you there
No devastation will ever compare
-Blue eyes, freckles and golden blond hair
VERSE 2
Isolated in a concrete wasteland
Irritation in my eyes from the bland
IN our log cabin the walls keep pushing in
Blood continues to rise as patience wears thin
BRIDGE
A life raft
A light in the sky
Another try, Another Lie
My closest friend
My reason why
Another night, another fight
END
There is no perfect diamond
Organic yields imprefection
Reality is never black and white
Bute when I see you perfection delights
I am here for your purpose
My muse you continue to surface
Everything I'm capable of
Everything I truly love
Will all rise with us above

I Was a Better Man

VERSE
Commencement motivated by my fear
Perpetuated by my pride
Everything in my life hinges
on what I decide
PRE-CHORUS
We are born into te cold
But nurtured from birth
To know the warmth of safety
nothing lasts on this earth
CHORUS
From inception we feel a purpose
We know meaning hides underneath the surface
But when all is lost to the mundane
All we learn to recognize is the pain
VERSE 2
Seduced by a serpent
Putrid behind beautiful eyes
Surrendered to an animal
Its every breath is for my demise
PRE-CHORUS
We are born into te cold
But nurtured from birth
To know the warmth of safety
nothing lasts on this earth
CHORUS
From inception we feel a purpose
We know meaning hides under the surface
But when it falls to mundane
Each day continues to drain-
You can't hide from fear of loss
Or what you may never gain
BRIDGE
Surrounded by the unknown
Close enough to reach out and touch
Feels like inspiration
But is another self imposed crutch
I don't want to know remorse
I want to rip what I want from the source
A childish need to take what I deem mine
Further from a reflection I know I decline
This hunger is not who I want to be
An endless thirst does not make who I am
When this started, when it all began
I was a much better man
