Down & Out
04:25
|
|||
Thoughts persuading me this life ain't worth shit
what's the fucking point? i'm tired if this struggle
sick of pressure, sick of this feeling right now
Down & out again, here comes the struggle in my head
Stepping into rationality, get yourself together
it's not the first time, and it won't be the last
don't want to feel like this anymore
so i battle to control my mind
Down & out again, here comes the struggle in my head
when all the reasons aren't enough, and i still don't give a fuck
i've found an effective relief in this sound to my head
to drown out all the shit

Extent of Pain
02:37
|
|||
Intentional isolation to contain
my personal misery
no need for involvement
with what these eyes have seen
you don't get use to it
or find peace
you learn to function
consider it recovery
haunting my mind
darkness, i never imagined to fight
haunting my mind
the presence of death
unintentional transformation
experiencing a new extent of pain
i'll never look at life the same
i've come back to reclaim
the passion i lost

Grand Illusion
03:26
|
|||
The grand illusion of a perfect home
the picture is painted so flawlessly
it's a grand illusion, they left out the truths that would change everything
it's not what it seems, someone's screaming inside
you want it back to feel safe, but it's over
it's all an act, what's false? what's fact?
it's an illusion, and there's no going back
Burn the picture, there's no peace
it only comes with silence
no one wants the truth when it's inconvenient, when it's uncomfortable
you'll be stripped of your facade, what a fucking sham
it makes me sick, you put on a good fucking face
Burn it, break the silence, there's no going back
it was built on lies, it's gonna collapse
the truth is hidden in the dark
now i see, there's no going back

It's Your Loss
01:29
|
|||
you couldn't fake it if you tried
and you don't care to
had me second guessing myself for a moment
but if what you see is not enough, i'll throw my hands up
cos you're not worth my energy
if wealth determines character
you're right, i'm no good
good thing such ignorance only holds true to the blind
poor in your judgments, lost in assumptions
can't see reality
life's deeper than what you own or what you can buy
you've got me all wrong
it's your loss

Surrender To Subsist
03:07
|
|||
Surrender to subsist
hearts abandoned, screaming from the abyss
desires subdued, functional abuse
discontent, yet complacent
conjure the courage to face it
from the vantage point of death
see how live should've been
it's like an orchestrated act, control passed down from the past
incessantly indoctrinated to preserve obedience
follow their roles of success, wallow in black holes of misery and stress
before you know it you're dead
without a sense of creative thought or expression
discarded, sold, decisions controlled
the pressure takes hold, i'm through with it all
the pacified mold
conjure the courage to face it

Hate Is Divine
02:48
|
|||
They call it the closet, but it's more like a prison cell
coming out doesn't feel so free when you're condemned and judged
to reject who i am for the agenda of an elite isn't an option
take my chances amongst danger?
or succumb to living a lie?
pinning corruption and evil on us for our sexual preference
but we're not out looking for blood like you
our existence makes your dogma illegitimate
to stop us you'll go to any fuckin length
hate fueled ideas, killing people
to control through fear
YOU FUCK
love is a crime, hate is divine, why am i not surprised?
the blood that's been shed in the name of your god is enough to prove who is sick
don't dare flock to my death
like vultures to rip me apart without my defense
i will never repent, can't forgive me for something i'll never fucking regret

Cycle Of Addiction
04:26
|
|||
Desperate to fill the voids with an escape
intensely focused on the pursuit of your next fix
you don't care who you fuck over to get what you want
cos you're lost in the cycle of addiction
I knew you before this habit got the best of you
still nothing i say diverts your attention
come at me with anger and tears
i can't help you hurt yourself any longer
cos you're lost in the cycle of addiction
it's fucked, to watch you fall down to this shit
the more i care the more it hurts
IT'S FUCKED, to watch you fall down to this shit
constantly in another hole, i can't get you out
constantly in another hole, WAKE THE FUCK UP!

Lifetime Of Heartache
04:04
|

Lyrics by Minerva Gonzales RIP
If there are any words
words of wisdom i can share with you
that i stand by these days
LIVE FOR YOU
yep, that simple
it's not just learning to love yourself
it's getting to know, accepting, and being you
don't worry so much about the meaningless mundane
our time here will pass us by
right before our fuckin eyes
i'm tired of wasting away through years that feel like weeks
stressed out, worrying
self destructive, and fucking careless
it's funny how something so simple
like just being yourself
can save you a lifetime of heartache
