Anew

A cautious existence fills my days
A life where I feel I’m out of phase
All the times I’ve lost my way
A pattern of fractals bind my face
Cautious I stay unfulfilled
And yet I am completely consumed
A stained glass gaze that keeps me trapped
The only way out I know is through
It once was you
And then the world began its turn
To start anew
Cautiously I feel the dewy ground
Spring fresh without having any sound
Dismantled out of the blue
The only way there can be is through
It once was you
And then the world began its turn
To start anew
Break out
It once was you
And then the world began its turn
To start anew

Everlasting
04:16
|

Hopelessly content I know I’ll
Learn to live a life of meaning
Built from this impermanence
This disarray is everlasting
Free fall hasn’t felt this good
Since you’ve left just like you always said I would
I am still everlasting
I’ll find my place
Between the scenes
I guess that life
Isn’t always as it seems
I thought I had
A time and place
But now there’s space
Beyond the days
I’ll take the back way out
For the thousandth time
I thought I would’ve learned
My only crime
A dramatic copping out
Erased without a doubt
But now there’s space
Beyond the days

Vanishing
03:28
|

Vanishing is easy, I deceive myself
I don’t know how this could be anything but some sick joke
Unconsidered, unable, and unwilling this must be some sick joke
But you disappeared with someone invisible
And I tried not to take it personal
But you disappeared with someone invisible
And I tried not to take it personally
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures now
Vanishing is easy, I deceive myself
A million thoughts run through my head
I don't remember a word you said
But vanishing is easier than any other way
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures now
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures
Do I throw away the pictures now

Alive

I don't want to tear my brain apart
But sometimes I think twice
I don't know you the same
Mistakes happen at times
But still you're such a drag
My past's alive
I hate so much to look back
And remember all the pain inside
Wasting all my time
Your heart's cold like
The blame you like to mask
I'll pretend that it's alright to want
To end my life tonight
You called me once at night
But my head just wasn't right
I don't know you the same
I thought that it could last
But life is way too short
My past's alive
I hate so much to look back
And remember all the pain inside
Wasting all my time
Your heart's cold like
The blame you like to mask
I'll pretend that it's alright to want
To end my life tonight
My past is alive
I wanted it to last
My life's misaligned
I just wanted it to die
My past is alive
I wanted it to last
My life's misaligned
I just wanted it to die
Take me now
End me now
Take me now
End me now

Symptomatic
03:21
|

Chills in summer heat
Thoughts too loud to speak
What is wrong with me
Silently I scream
I know I get so overwhelmed at times
Remain while I retreat
Instinctively shut my eyes
To find some peace
My fears
Too near
Not here
Still as night, why the fight or flight
How can I know which lie is mine
Symptomatic crime
Watch my fate align
I know I get so overwhelmed at times
Remain while I retreat
Instinctively shut my eyes
To find some peace
My fears
Too near
Not here

Distress
03:02

I feel like I’ve been running out of time lately
I just… I look and I try to figure where it’s all gone
Time is really like the one nonrenewable resource
You can’t… You can put atoms back together
You can build solids
You can create gases
But you can’t make more time out of nothing
I don’t know
Sometimes you just have to give up some of your own time
In order to really appreciate the existence
But lately it’s just been feeling like I’ve been running out of it faster
I look back and I think
You know back when I was a child
When I was first meeting people and talking to people
And playing in bands
And I don’t know I was just so happy back then
It’s not to say like I’m not happy now but it’s
It’s different like it’s
Not as childlike in a way
I was able to just experience it in the moment back then
Because maybe I wasn’t so focused on the time that was passed
But the time I was in and the time I was going to have
It just felt so hopeful
Just filled with all this thought of the future and potential
And felt like this was my moment, my calling
Where I had my friends around me
But you know now here I am
Twelve, thirteen years later
And I don’t even know where they are
I don’t think I’ve talked to them in at least five or six years
They’ve all grown up
All just kind of moved on

Discovery

Am I too far
Can you reach me my friend
You seem so real
I must have missed something then
I'm still asleep
I don't want to wake up alone
I should go out
Inaction wastes me I find
Lately I can't explain how I behave
But I know there's something gone
Deep within my brain
And I struggle to quantify what I believe
But I know there's something wrong
Fundamentally
For so long I've been alone I can't even cry
Am I alive
How could I know
How to save myself for you
I knew the words
But no meaning came through
Lately I can't explain how I behave
But I know there's something gone
Deep within my brain
And I struggle to quantify what I believe
But I know there's something wrong
Fundamentally
For so long I've been told to change if I'm to be
Loved for who I am, but who would I be
For so long I've been shut down it's so hard to try
Please let me hide

Apocalypse
04:39
|

The ones who witness the ending
Are the ones who wasted no time knowing
This world is not made for us
Icier each day crowd thinning
Burning up the time clocks ticking
This world is not made for us
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS NOT IRRELEVANT
Trying to find the
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS NOT A DETRIMENT
Right way to try so I
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS NOT SIGNIFICANT
Can try and erase this
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS NOT SIGNIFICANT
Empty voices fill blood red dawn
Tell me where have all the battles gone
This world is not made for us
Planets out of orbit collide
Specks of dust propelled an endless sky
This world is not made for us
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS NOT IRRELEVANT
Trying to find the
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS NOT A DETRIMENT
Right way to try so I
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS NOT SIGNIFICANT
Can try and erase this
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS NOT SIGNIFICANT
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS THE APOCALYPSE
AHHHHHH
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS NOW IRRELEVANT
Trying to find the
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS NOW A DETRIMENT
Right way to try so I
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS NOW SIGNIFICANT
Can try and erase this
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS NOW SIGNIFICANT
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS NOW SIGNIFICANT
EVERYTHING THAT’S HAPPENED UP ’TIL NOW IS NOW SIGNIFICANT

Memories
03:51
|

Listen to the sounds so far away
Distant memories of solemn days
Muffled rushing, a timid cry
Hazy mist clouds a grayer sky
Find a place long gone
Never mind bear on
Touch of grace too tough to taste
Holy spells and hollow praise
Knowing words to a different song
Dissonance can't last for long
Find a place long gone
Never mind bear on
Find a place long gone
Never mind bear on
