The End Begins Here

THE END BEGINS HERE
Saunter echos my name
Living a life of pride
under skies of vague grey
Selfishly selflessly drug against the grain
Each ripple at the waters edge
was created by created for me
I spend it alone
I’d rather spend my time alone most days
But just for now creating knots out of frays
I wouldn’t want it to end this way
A blurred image in a broken frame
A windmill on fire fans its own flames
Like chasing the sun to the horizon
A sun rise. Can’t take
away some nights
Free from promise free from sin
The validation of an honest
Mans lies
What’s been changed
What’s the same
What’s unknown
The air we breath
Rest your head
(I used to feel invincible)
Roots grown from glory days
Under skies of vague grey
Where you’ve been
Where you are
Where you’ll go
The lives you’ve touched
Times moving fast
(I start to feel invisible)
A made man won’t make me
Under skies of vague grey
Righteousness
Makes the dead look young
Harmony
dances on the gracious mans tongue
Beyond prediction
Self submissive
The view wasn’t what was expected
If misunderstood
What good is a message?
Shouting on a soap box
when no ones listening
Despite good intentions
we still seek validation
Denying destiny
the error in our way
Tempting the hand of fate
How long can we tempt the hand of fate?
Long before the fall
Waging nothing everything to lose
Pride goes down smooth
Pride goes down smooth

Negative You

NEGATIVE YOU
Renounce all the pain
you feel in your heart
know that some things must end
So somethings can start
As the youth drains from your face
Faultless middle ground
Parallels never meet
Vacant uncertainty
a prophet that lost his will to preach
Have we forgot the weight?
of words and actions, bitter satisfaction?
Unmindful negligence?
We wear the scars as evidence
I struggle to articulate
what I feel into words
Or to demonstrate the love I feel
without the hurt
And to not descend
Turning poor choice into bad habit
While tip toeing on the fence.
Knowledge not time has shown what it means to commit.
Silver linings come undone
Filled with false hope empty lungs
Loves just not enough
If you feel how I feel
then you know that it’s real
Consequence to confidence
A character so endeared
Paint insecurity like a mural
Chip at the brick til it’s peeled
Self assured Settled scores
intentions honest and pure
And at this time
I wish all the things I love would last
Our time is now no time for rest
So flattered I’m scared to death
That I lived as someone else
Or that I’ll die alone

If You Don't Feel The Same
I’ll watch you age
With no semblance of
What they’d call grace
Stay young out and inside
Chasing dreams
golden heart
After all it’s just state of mind
I have felt worse
It's okay to say
This is goodbye
If you don't feel the same
A senseless Shame
Becomes a new day
A grip-used to-hold on so tight
Now slips away
Where you aim, where you land
Depends on the risk you take
A ladder of those you stepped on
Made you the man you are today
not for an ounce of respect
Spun gold countless times
Funded your success
And watched the world love a lie
All but what’s imperfect
Nothing easy
Without a price to pay
A sidewalk never traveled
Never cared to
With your name engraved
In a room of mirrored bodies
Can’t distinguish difference
Common place
To the past
Tip your hat
Raise a glass
Faith now or Never

More Weight

MORE WEIGHT
Won’t produce a plea
If it cost integrity
Can you Feel your character tested?
As the weight presses
As the weight presses down
So Stack another stone
On self inflicted wounds
We fold, coexist through broken smiles and gritting teeth
I can only hope
everything I love will be the death of me
MORE WEIGHT
Blind sided
Abide to your beliefs
Sing to forget
As willows wept
So focused On finding grace
Sun blind
clear to see
We live all wrong
die to young
Oppressed we remain unsung
MORE WEIGHT
Like speaking in first person
From third party perspective
Like kind words from the luring lips of a adverse soul leaving morals subjective
to be true to thyself above all
Eyes to the ceiling back to the floor
When on your knees life seems so tall
when judgments weight was lifted
I felt reborn
I’ll beg to differ but I won’t beg to live
MORE WEIGHT
Blind sided
Abide to your beliefs
Sing to forget
As willows wept
So focused On finding grace
MORE WEIGHT
Sun blinded
clear to see
We live all wrong
die to young
Oppressed unsung
So brave
So proud
So strong
While you pound your fucking chest
We bend
We bow
I scream
More weight
More weight more weight
I will not lay for air to breath
Who I am above everything X2
You live for this you live for nothing more weight

1 of 6
One life to live
Shoot from the hip
Dancing between rain drops
Like you can’t get wet
The after lights after glow is gone
The torch of a new day is lit with every setting sun
In not so many many words
I see your conscience hurts
Leave alone what you love
Soap box and podium an audience of linoleum
Prophets that only closet preach
Even giants lay to sleep
I miss the days you shadowed over me
I start to see what
You see in the mirror (1 of 6!)
And every year it gets
A little bit clearer (1 of 6!)
That you and I are not
That different you know (1 of 6!)
But the difference between us
Is starting show (1 of 6!)
I'm Concerned that your
Talent is a curse (1 of 6!)
And that your lies overtime
Only get worse (1 of 6!)
Tell me an excuse
It comes out like it's rehearsed (1 of 6!)
Every time I want to quit
I know you did first
Sparking inspiration
Feels like discovering fire
The impacts made Moments not names
Before what we were wasn’t self proclaimed
Build these walls high (during the cut)
the needle of passion a silent obsession
Rusted strings struggle to resonate
The ink has faded on these lyric sheets
The choruses are different
the songs end the same
I start to see what
You see in the mirror (1 of 6!)-
And every year it gets
A little bit clearer (1 of 6!)
That you and I are not
That different you know (1 of 6!)
But the difference between us
Is starting show (1 of 6!)
I'm Concerned that your
Talent is a curse (1 of 6!)
And that your lies overtime
Only get worse (1 of 6!)
So when you hit me with excuse
It comes out like it's rehearsed (1 of 6!)
Every time I want to quit
I know you did first
Potential lost
Lack luster love
A face to face
A heart to heart
No passion no pride
No fruit no flies
No show no spine you ain’t no friend of mine
Wildfires underneath my skin
Complacency has trait you in.

UNMARKED
Measured by moments
A commitment to fear
Nothing left to prove
Lack of care
To learn to give
to gain more than you lose
Strung out on a loss for words
Speaking more just to be heard
Singing morals into structured sonnets
When there’s no noise to fill voids are when words hit the hardest
Half heartedly
Mindless men feel no shame
Pushed aside passed the blame
Not only prisoners model chains
And if chains were only meant to bind
No strength in numbers when we’re forming lines
Weak spines form to molds
It’s easier but I’m not sold
I don’t want to be a forgotten name a forgotten grave
No roses
No roses
No roses
No roses for a forgotten name a forgotten grave
No roses

In Mercy's Name

In Mercy’s Name
Nursing toxic thoughts
With one eye on your watch
The clock now breathes a sigh
For all your wasted time
And On the note of building homes
Why don’t we board them all up as we go
Births and deaths
To celebrate
All the love that passed us by in pursuit of pride
Tread a path of deep disdain
Regret for either choice you make
Sowing dragons teeth
Aggression breeds
never a moments peace
The present in which we live
The spell you have to use or dismiss
Angels and demons you’re trying to please
Rack your brain, “can one overachieve”
solution screaming in your face
it’s more
time
you
need
Sweat tears and blood pour out
For every one that I’ll let down
I need more weeks days and hours
You hid the world away from me
No idea what you were promising
Burnt bridge and torn page
Peppered with past tense outrage
You are not a problem to fix
Life doesn’t have to end like this
Take your time and think a lot
Seize the day make your mark
The world is waiting for your new start

Skies Opened, So Did My Eyes.
There's a man in the sky
Looking down on me
Made me all that I am
And all that I can be
Made my parents who they are
And chose my family too
Made them suffer
Made them struggle
tribulations as proof
How can you live with your mistakes
Without absolving your sins
Blaming others for your misfortunes
When it's all part of god's plan
Who am I to question God
And his mysterious ways
I am one of many sons
To receive his grace
So when I fail
All I need to do is perceive
Why God
Why did you let this happen to me?
So please man in the sky
Looking down on me
Can you tell me who I am
Who I am supposed to be
I have repented my transgressions
Against my fellow man
I renounce my future failures
Or when I will inevitably give in to sin
No ground to stand on
When you can walk on water
Found this book to guide me through the darkness
the only light it will give me is if I burn it
Sometimes I feel worthless
But I will never feel better at someone else's expense
So God
Can you tell me what to do now?
While all of my torches
Have since been burnt out
If there's a man in the sky
Looking down on me
This is who I am
Who choose to be
Never looking for a handout
Or to absolve my sins
I am the cause
I am to blame
For this life I live

Social Desert

SOCIAL DESERT
A great big hammer
With some ground to break
could change this world
With a mighty swing
Oh heaven knows
there’s some hell to raise
Lip syncing ghost notes
Are you listening?
Hindsight as far as eye can see
You deserve this tirelessly
Worshiping the broken ground you step
Polluted air you breath
Showed me a better me
A voice like birds singing
Kindly guides the way
Wealth of words on deaf ears
Under breaths of modest screams
don’t blame you for the fear you feel
Seems surreal To be
the one to set the bar
Went together like
Cigarettes and whiskey
A match and gasoline
Voids to fill our sacrifice
Nothing wholesome walks
the streets at night
True potential envied
even by an untrained eye
An oasis in a social desert
Brought light into the darkest lives
To never be seen in that light again
Where we’re supposed to be
Exceptions we’re meant to meet
A promise that’s unspoken
The middle ground has since been broken
There’s a drought in this discussion
Giving all that’s left of me
Faux place of prosperity
There’s nothing real for us
Knowing it’s all a facade
Keep my eyes shut to this mirage
The ending brings applause
Well beyond pick and choose
Your personalities like stone
When I need words like water

SPENT
I wasn’t built for this
Frail hope and borrowed time
You can only feel dead for so long before you just lay down and die
Pawned love Exploited sins
I can only live a lie so long before I’ll admit “I’m spent”
No will no way
Nothing left
No hope no faith
No more truths
No more dreams to chase
No will no way
Nothing left to chase
No hope no faith
Nothing left to lose
No truths no dream
Nothing to create
No choice no fakes
Nothing left to prove
It’s not the loss of ability
It’s the loss of want
Anywhere but here
Anyone but me
Setting my self free
Cost me everything
Somewhere else
Someone else
Has spoken my thoughts
Better than my self
Death stained my left hand
With nostalgia comes unrest
I can’t remember
what this meant
Nothing left
They’re fooled
I’m fine

You'll Be Missed

You'll Be Missed
It all comes down this
Every experience
To be a stronger me for you
Test your fear against my will
The calm before the storm
A car ride in silence
carving my way to you
Test your fear
Against my will
create my own gravity
you are the sun itself
Don't we all
Get to choose
The point I make
Is the point I lose
Knowing full well
We're passed the point of the break
The rain beats heavy on the stone
I want to tell you that I love you but I don't
Can't change or rearrange the things I know
That's the price we have to pay.
To be in love.
Choosing which casket to lay in
A hollow grave I prefer
This pain is temporary
Feels like 1000 fists hitting me at once
Have questions that don't have answers
Maybe I don't deserve love
I want to progress
Letting go of my God Complex
There are parts
of your past
You don't want
to relive
Or have I regressed?
Am I giving into madness?
Kindred
Spirit
It all feels
Like shit
You want a fake answer to a real problem
Life is dull when you can have it all
The rain beats heavy on the stone
I want to tell you that I miss you but I won't
Feel the fear of losing you start to grow
Everything moments another action I could throw

It's just a banger from start to finish. Old school hardcore in the youth crew tradition. Lyrical positivity. Music that lifts you up. Keep 'em coming.

supported by 6 fans who also own “More Weight”
A standout full-length debut in what has been an incredible year for hardcore. Ecostrike play a incendiary, impassioned brand of straight edge metallic hardcore that recalls One Truth-era Strife and early Earth Crisis, but are far from being a simple retread of 90’s past. One of the year’s best releases.
