Never forget.
Can't you hear me, calling you out from the darkness?
Hello old friend, how have you been?
Please don't make me ask again.
I want to feel your light, to feel your energy.
You helped me forge the fight, I will never forget you.
Can't you feel me, pulling you inside from the light?
From the light, the time resends the rules unbent, it's time now, strike again!
I want to feel your light, to feel your energy.
You helped me forge the fight, I will never forget you.
Goodbye my friend, goodbye my family.
It's not me, misinformations the enemy.
I want to feel your light, to feel your energy.
You helped me forge the fight, I will never forget you.
Never forget you.
Never forget.

Secret Flowers
02:42

|
Bloom, now the petal burns.
Still the pedal yearns, for you.
Breed, now it stems and earns,
will pretend to turn, for me.
I'll wait, every single day,
In your secret garden.
Pollinate, now the spores they fly.
The hordes will all arise, for you.
Harvest the unilateral, compatible.
Hold the wheel we go, inconceivable.
I'll wait, every single day,
in your secret flowers.
All hours.

Your Guard
03:01
|

|
Biofilm stretches the path, cracking and bleeding and feeling its wrath.
I let down my guard.
Told them what I know.
Now I've said too much, it's time to go.
Sick and tired of being sick and tired.
A glimmer of hope, from a mother of four...nope.
I let down my guard.
Told them what I know.
Now I've said too much, it's time to go.
Don't let down your guard.
Don't tell them what you know.
Never say too much of anything and never go.

Black Mirror
03:28

|
Abhorrent disgrace, in the wings to replace.
Screenshot of your disguised face.
Would it kill you to know?
The ones that you hold, could be so low?
Can't you see?
You can't cancel me.
A platform shove,
a like that you love.
We burn it all digitally.
A flame and letter,
isn't better.
We burnt it all, physically
Put the black letter down, put the black mirror down.
Apparently, my behavior is troubling
Put the black liver down.
No human is illegal, so look at you look at you now.
It's all so hypocritical, look at us look at us, how?
Put the black mirror down.
Can't you see?
We've become our own "Belize"
Put the Black mirror down.

Kitchen Sink

Write it all down.
Light it on fire, burn up the kitchen sink.
Uncovered a frown.
As times are dire, what will our parents think?
It's all a blur, keyboard warrior so go on and type and loot.
Unplug your mind, one step at a time, here's to sober truth.
I’m here alone,
washing all my cares away.
I’ve been at home, watching each and every passing day.
It’s starting to slip.
Cannot handle.
This year has been...
Talk it all out.
Walk it off now.
Tomorrow is still brand new.
These aren’t my shoes,
and you had the blues.
What was I supposed to do?
The question at hand is to sit or stand for what you believe and think.
I say, burn it all down, light it on fire, burn up the kitchen sink.
I’m here alone,
washing all my cares away.
I’ve been at home,
watching each and every passing day....and they pass.
It’s starting to slip.
Cannot handle it.
Don’t mind me, I’m just
having a fit.
This year has been...

Silent Skills
02:44

|
I cannot carry the burden.
I’m tired of waking up on the floor.
We both see our life is burning.
I can’t take any more.
Your silence kills
Your silence killed us
Your silent skill
Your silence killed us
You cannot bury the future
You’re tired of taking our shit
There are no winners or losers
So commit to it
Your silence kills
Your silence killed us
Your silent skill
Your silence killed us
Take that finger
and stab out my eyes, you aren’t using them anyway.
Rip out my heart
and shove it in your mouth, I’m not using it anyway.
Your silence kills
Your silence killed us
Your silent skill
Your silence killed us

The Scold
02:26
|
|||
|
I watched your online videos
It compels me to ask
With all the reptiles, chem trails and microwave guns
Why not wear a mask
I am the scold
Consider yourself told
Here’s one that’s shiny silver
A match for your tin foil hat
And facial recognition software
Will never find you under that
You will always find me
Wherever bullshit is sold
They decided it’s all over
So forget everything I said
I am the scold and it’s getting old

So Lucky

She will rise, she will set the sun never forgets, it's obscene.
Through all eye's we rely and comply we see the same goddamn things.
We can't see the forest for the trees.
Cant fight that family tree, burnin deep inside of me.
Would you look at that?
Every day, the same goddamn things.
Tired of being told to be happy and feel so lucky.
She will rise, she will set the sun never forgets, it's obscene.
Through all eye's we rely and comply we see the same goddamn things.
We can't see the forest for the trees.
Cant fight that family tree, burnin deep inside of me.
Would you look at that?
Every week, the same goddamn things.
Tired of being told to be happy and feel so lucky.
Through all eye's we rely and comply we see the same goddamn things.
We can't see the forest for the trees.
Cant fight that family tree, burnin deep inside of me.
Would you look at that?
Every year, the same goddamn things.
Tired of being told "just be happy, you're so lucky".

Hello my friend, how have you been?
It’s so hard to watch you crumbling to the end.
I want to hold you tight and tell you it will be just fine.
But you have your problems, and I got mine
I cant explain, I want to shave my head
I can’t complain my face is painted
Hey how’s today? It’s been awhile.
Can you find it in your heart and head to show a smile?
I see it from across the room it’s drawn on it’s drawn on, you’ve drawn on your emotion
I can’t explain I want to shave my head
I can’t complain always a half full glass and a face thats painted
Give me someone who will listen, the ones who care have done enough have suffered enough.
I can’t explain I want to shave my head
I can’t complain always a half full glass and a face thats painted

Take me out on the lake x2
Take me out x2
Take me I need an escape x2
Take me out x2
Take me now I relate x2
Take me out x2
Take me out of this place x2
Take me out x2
I’ve had all I can take x2
Just take me out
Take me the fuck out
Shoot me right into space x2
Take me out x2
Take me out on the lake.

Act Like a Kid
02:47

Did you bite off more than you ever thought that you could ever chew?
Did you commit the committed place? Thought you won the race? Egg on your face?
Did you forget when you lost your shit? Yeah you flipped your lid, act like a kid.
Did you really think that I would get you a level set and then forget?
I don’t believe it, but it’s true.
Did I really think we’d compromise? Right between the eyes? Am I surprised?
Did I believe that you ever cared? The thoughts that we shared, were not prepared.
Did you forget when you lost your shit? Yeah you flipped your lid, act like a kid.
Did you really think that I would get you a level set and then forget?
You don’t believe it, but it’s true.
- I feel your pain -
