Not quite easy, with how this sits in my hand I’m laying here draining blood But I’m tasting only sand Are you not entitled to the sweat of your own brow Hope is such a curable affliction Do you feel free now? While heaven seems to drown The sky is falling down on earth They built the circuitry Make. Them. Bleed Will the circle be unbroken? We can smother out the prophecy So you believe We’ll make the founders bleed We’ll make the founders bleed Constant timeless eternity A prophecy we’ll never be (always be) I’ve got a vision of a crooked soul A false shepherd here to kill us all Poor little sister, your faith is torn It seems that big brother never seemed to care at all Oh heaven, the bluest skies and purest white It just so happens your eyes will adjust to the light Your eyes will adjust to the light What lives, will die (die, die) Make. Them. Bleed (What lives, will die) (We’ll make them bleed) While heaven seems to drown The sky is falling down on earth They built the circuitry Make. Them. Bleed Will the circle be unbroken? We can smother out the prophecy So you believe We’ll make the founders bleed We’ll make the founders bleed

I may be nothing but a bag of flesh But these eyes can see This soul had dreams I do wish I had thought of these things Before I made a consequential leap Remove everything in my life I do wish I had thought of these things But now it’s all gone and I’m falling through the void This halfway point gives clarity Time to brace in case the thought I held Wasn’t all that was and all that will be A view that takes everything Yet again it's all for me and like the wave I’ll fade out into thee Sudden momеnt of clarity How do you explain this disparity I want to live but I cannot lie Wе have our whole life set up to die A sudden moment of clarity Can’t explain this disparity I want to live but I cannot lie We have our whole lives set up to die My sentiment in a slow decay As my thoughts just slip away We have our lives set up to die I’ve had enough of looking up at open doors Tormenting my fatal move that makes my flaws Had enough of looking up at open doors Tormenting my fatal move that makes my flaws My will was to pour it all down the drain In my doomed souls anatomy Lies this torment in black and life Between the black and white Sits my blood and might Building doubt, when I could have just made things right But this was making it right Stasis and hindsight don’t favour my peace of mind This was the right choice right I made the right choice, right This was the right choice This was the only outcome (I’ll gladly die now) Knowing that I am right (right) A sudden moment of clarity Can’t explain this disparity I want to live but I cannot lie (We have our whole lives set up to die) A sudden moment of clarity Can’t explain this disparity I want to live but I cannot lie We have our whole lives set up to die My sentiment in a slow decay As my thoughts just slip away We have our lives set up to die Set to die So let me glide down To the depthless floor I’ve had enough of looking up at all the open doors (set to die) Tormenting me Demanding me To justify this choice I made Even though I know it won’t change a thing I’ve never had full control Floating unwilling to disturb the universe When everything fuses into death The destination is a lifelong statement

Refract 03:18
I’ve had it with this world What makes you think our unity will bring us any good? My fading innocence will circumvent my love for you (for you) I’m the master of my own fate Yet I sit here in this waste You’ve led me to this life But I know I can never change It’s all on me It’s all in my head Take a second You tell me “Have some faith in the method A second chance at a second life I’ll take back all the pain, I’ll make it right this time” But what use is a second? I would rather die Can I еscape all this pain to leave bеhind just things that I told you? Your faults make mine Is there a silver lining I am yet to find? Can you pull me out, or am I whom I suspect to have destroyed My peace of mind? I am the bowels of humanity Where the lies fly free and the truth will hurt I am the only thing that hates me You are nothing with this feud Between my happiness and liberty Maybe this is all on me and my vacant minded lethargy This doom is my home (this doom is my home) An abysmal cage of my own My eternal rage justified Can I escape all this pain to leave behind just things that I told you? Your faults make mine Is there a silver lining I am yet to find? Can you pull me out, or am I whom I suspect to have destroyed My peace of mind? I like to hide the fact, I couldn’t realise in time To the lies, I am good In my mind, I withstood All the time I’ve spent listening, I’d have made it on my own

Soma 03:00
Just look at us now I can't decide why I am here My dreams are of age Yet they make promises they know they can't keep (tragedy) Tragedy never felt so real Oh coven o' lilies Will I ever heal? Tragedy never felt so real Oh coven o' lilies Such terrible commotion Lose all organic notion Just tell me I need you Just tell me I'm not free Just tell me I need you Just tell me I can't see Ripples in the pool that has beckoned me with the antidote I hate it here and I'd gladly leave but you need to just tell me Drowning Transcends Breaths of air If I could change the way my head becomes my saint The lights and magic of us want to stay to viscerate All my stability, all the chances to stay alive and not lose my way (lose my way) Tragedy never felt so real Oh coven o' lilies Will I ever heal? Tragedy never felt so real Oh coven o' lilies Such terrible commotion I've lost every notion of being alive My trust in the world just begging to die The sixth, the neural flood As only time could tell, I've struggled I've fought I raise a question for my newborn semblance If I just say okay Will the pain have no say? I'll suffer, I'll stay But, will the pain have no say?

I view the unforgiving With the peace of mind that we stand Side by side There is no escape Amongst the ever changing We’re vulnerable and frail Stuck in our hopeless demise A tragic, bitter fate Theres nothing stopping our hopeless and slow decay All we know has left us drowning We’ve sealed our fate We tread on fallen victims of this failed state A modern tragedy buried in their graves We’re wandering through this empty maze To our bittersweet demise Sleepwalking through time, while we’re in our graves Let our fate consume the earth Ever changing We’ve come this far but we are Slowly fading We’ll meet our miserable end Time is fleeting And I’ll stand by to watch our fragile world Burning in desperation Theres nothing stopping our hopeless and slow decay All we know has left us drowning We’ve sealed our fate We tread on fallen victims of this failed state A modern tragedy buried in their graves We’re wandering through this empty maze To our bittersweet demise Sleepwalking through time, while we’re in our graves Let our fate consume the earth There’s nowhere prepared for this bittersweet demise Sleepwalking through time, while we’re in our graves Let our fate consume the earth Born to suffer, bred to suffocate I’m slowly sinking But I’ll stand by Watching our world die This is not worth saving Your change of heart was condemned by hate This modern tragedy, is one of ill fate A hopeless victim of the machine Our toxic poetry feeds the lie that we lead so desperately How did we end up here? Is this all we are? Can someone save me now? Teach me how to feel alive Under picturesque skies Painted in black and white Wandering through the night Buried in this plight (buried in this plight) Born to suffer, bred to suffocate We plead innocence, in esoteric existence Abandoned by our faith, destiny in decay I am truly no different, we are all the same
