- Track Name: Magic
-
It’s then when the lights go out
Shadows creep and dance about
Transform what you think you know
Unveiling worlds while you’re alone
For they are busy building
They are focused on the one dimension
Rigid and unending blinded by the prize
That’s just beyond the...
Mountains of dissatisfaction
Cross the seas of mundane fearful lies
For those on the other side
Are fading while people deny
Captured while still very young
And poured in forms that will become
Cognant, calculating steeped in knowledge
Based on thin perspective
Subtle and unwieldy they erect the stage
That stimulates the...
Mountains of dissatisfaction
Cross the seas of mundane fearful lies
Lies killing what is your
Pure dynamic fertile mind
Lies filling in the void
Casting empty shades of joy
Deny - Track Name: Insatiable
-
The coast is clear
No one around
No prying eyes that may burrow
In my guilty mind
No born taboos
More freedom than I
Should have for my needs are insatiable
A puppet crushed and crippled with denial, alone
The killer waits until you close your eyes
The one to demonize
Your right to choose
The burning shelter collapsing on you
Or another fate, Say I
Feel it rising up
With burning desire
Choking out
Your will to aspire
That tiny thread
That keeps you alive
Is unwinding as voices keep hounding me
Whispering more reasons to deny, alone
The killer waits until you close your eyes
The one to demonize
Your right to choose
The burning shelter collapsing on you
Or another fate
For we can choose
To succumb to their greedy point of view
Or another fate - Track Name: Pious Greedy Few

Germinate, Propagate, Circulate
Pollinate, Fabricate, Penetrate
Dominate, Subjugate, Violate
Terminate, Overtake, Decimate
With the birth of a seed generated not to breed
Sends a warning so immense casting signs for defense
As research feeds the mouths of the pious greedy few
Who have chosen to extort their myopic point of view
Forced to use what’s been sold farmers deal in harder times
As the powers standing in, merely puppets by design
For the wind bares the seed pollinating neighbor fields
Will the death be contrived start to mingle, start to thrive
Making slaves by weird science
Twisting genes they bind our hands
Altering the balance of
The sustenance for years to come
Making slaves by weird science
Twisting genes they bind our hands
Altering the balance of
The sustenance for all - Track Name: The Conservative
-
The rhymes betray
They color with lies
He goes at night
No one around
Cloaked with his filth
So vile
The signs convey
They draw upon
He goes at night
No one around
Cloaked with his filth
So vile
He cries out loud
No one around
Suspecting all
That gaze down
Can you hear that sound?
Grinding faceless forms
Can’t tell anyone
Or I’ll end up vanishing alone
Did you see that smile?
Corrupted and chilling
To make us their lambs
To the slaughter willing
For tonight I live
Fearful of existing
As dusk rolls into night
She appears glowing light
Vivid colors woven
Generating safe haven
Find me in the corners of your mind
Fiercely guarding all you’ve left behind
Find freedom wherever you may go
I’m here looking out for you just know just know - Track Name: Dark Skies
-
We bore a child in placid times
In hindsight, heedless, selfish
We should have known by the warming tides
Denying our instinct, foresight to decide
Who will feed us? Will we starve?
Are there others in the dark?
Weak defenseless cannot last
Laden with knowledge, useless crap
Fire burns in the night
Spreading fever, feeding fright
Are there others in the dark?
Waiting to perish, all is lost - Track Name: Promise
-
Soft glowing eyes penetrating
Knowing you’re there, steadfast unfailing
From the moment you decide
With honest guidance
Doing what you think is right
Promise I’ll be there for you
Sweet smile warming
Hearts tired and brittle
Pure intention
Growing inside
From the moment you decide
With honest guidance
Doing what you think is right
Promise I’ll be there for you
From her melody of sighs
My heart is burning
Carried off and left to die
Upon memories of you - Track Name: Flying
-
Sinking weightless floating on
Moments shifting pulled to roam
Friend’s acquaintance foreign songs
Carrying vital substance from
Winds howl in the canyons
Fears grow in the heart
Peer over the precipice
Stepping closer start to shake
Heart beat pounding in my head
Lifetimes pass before my eyes
Blurring vision petrified
Wind howls in the canyon
Fears grow in the heart
Peer over leaping out
Take to the sky
Breathe in the air
Making a leap
Waking what’s there
Feeling the pull
Of your new flight
Taking a risk
You’ll be all right
Look up above - Track Name: Essence
-
Floating in currents of smoke suffocating
A premonition, feeling of hope
Delicate ribbons of scent
Dragged me onward as if in a trance
Through pulsating crowds
Heart pounding, fiendishly deciphering
To no avail
Weaving through a maze of streets
Clear, pure unknown
Captured by addictive essence
Feeding the horror
Closer now
Ravishing her
Sweet delicate pure as her last breath
Squeezed from her lips
Greedily devoured
Closer now
Lapping up
Ravishing her - Track Name: Survivor
-
They are building over
A lifetime now swept under
Looming closer, creep unnoticed
Miles of jagged wasteland
Blanketing the coastline
Finding hope to carry through
Blinded by forceful winds
Crying out to others
Lying under tables
Fighting for survival
Clinging tight to his makeshift raft
Floating out on the horizon line
Tears of salt crusting his aged mouth
Calling out, pleading with his maker
Please
