Still Waters Run Deep
02:12

Over time I've healed
and I've seen changes
If I could only turn back the pages I'd tell my self you've got
too much going for you kid
to sit on the banks and
watch the tide roll in
Still waters run deep
I can't fight this feeling
I can't fight this feeling to destroy everything I've created
And then it fell silent
Not a thing made a sound
But the rain in the trees
And my feet on the ground
And when it fell silent
I kept pressing on
Cause I had nothing left
But the words of a song
They told me keep going
At the end of the road
I'd find what I'd longed for
And our fates that'd been sewn
Sewn from the start
At the end torn and frayed
And the scenes from our future
And our past that we made
Though there are no walls
If there were they'd speak in tongues
As water falls
Clarity conquers all
There's still some ghosts
Hearts of change decisions made
There's no haste in what we chose
Of future and present
Ever triumphant past
Shows face the most.

Tell Me About Yourself
02:20
|

Feel so alone
Have no one to blame
The weeks weigh so heavy
The days never change
Months seem like hours
Years decades away the contradictions enough to drive me insane
So I'll run away blame it on what you said
Retrace my foot steps ending back here againMy imagination wonders I'd rather pretend than deal with the hardships and the trials of a man
On my death bed
I'll think of all I regret
Lost hope for a devious soul
I think that I've lost control
Is this who you want to be? (repeated)
Do you wanna be
Define by these vices that I have obtained
I have become every mistake I have ever made
Bound by these outcomes
To consequences I slave
If they only know what I've done (X2)

Have you forgot?
What it meant to learn from love lost
A stepping stone still has the weight of the
World to lean on
In the grand scheme
A broken levee
Is a bigger ocean to drown in
It tears you apart
can't help it
A gold ring
is not a high way paved with gold
For you to come and go
Or roll on by and take your toll on
My blessed heart My blessed heart
Faster than the words of god
Rarer Than the sight the sight true love
Never would it ever passed off to misguided endeavors or drastic measures
Raised voices closed doors from raising pressures I severed the heads of demons in hopelessness I still found reason arms still open to the changing seasons of treasons freedoms
Man made vows
Sky scrapers shadow out
mountains clouds
the fogs been rolling in
How many times Do it watch it burn off again
" I shall respect thy beliefs thy ways as I respect my self".

Expect neglect correct collect and recollect
I only get cold
When the winds of change blow
Ordinary temporary vacancy skewed memory
Distance only greatens when
I feel most at home.
How could this be?
This lanterns light still shines through me
Just Lightning in a jar on display for all to see
How could this be?
Could you hear the last thing I said?
Could you feel me wish for one more when you took your final breath?
Why do I pretend?
Or bite my tounge at selfishness
Put on the front that I'm so strong
Have you ever seen a head so heavy on shoulders strong enough to hold?
fighting a fight I've already lost
It's a double edged sword
There's two sides to a coin
If the wise say that time won't change the past and that we won't ever meet again
Is it naive to claim that "this was just his time."
How could some one die that was so full of life?
The flowers on the bush still bloomed that spring
And autumns leaves still fell on winters wings
Screaming
Pray for death one more time
While others are dieing to be alive
So pray for death on more time
While others are dieing just to be alive
The world
The world stopped spinning today x4
Blending with the blurring colors of changing leaves its easier to recognize a footprint in the sand then a ripple in the sea so drain the oceans shoot out the moon snuff the sun

Imagine This, But Worse.

Settling for the safer way
It's easy to throw words that have no weight
Taken back by loss of faith?
Smile back it's not ok
Passive aggressive
Weak spine intentions
Nothing left but own up
I don't know
Is an answer that I can't accept
Ohhh I like to pretend
It works out in the end
Juke me
Truth be told
Mistakes were made
But who's to blame?
All Smoke and mirrors
It doesn't add up
Setting for the safer way
So easy to throw words that have no weight
Passive aggressive
Weak spines intentions
When will you just own up?

Have you ever loved?
where you ever lost?
would you lie to a face to earn it's trust?
do you lie awake trying to explain
how where and when you lost your way?
are you heaven sent am I worthless?
I'd walk through hell to find the truth
So hard to believe
when your bones are as hollow as the promises you swore that you'd keep.
Enough to salvage
With calloused hands
Holding tight
Making amends
Enough to salvage
Hard hearted brands
Letting go
Forgivingness
A broken promise a broken nose
I hung myself on every word
Gritting teeth nostalgic ways
Last years yesterday's
Are you heaven sent
Am I worthless?
I'd walk through hell to find the truth
So hard to believe
When your bones are as hollow as the promises you swore that you'd keep.
You swore you'd keep
Ahhhh the frustration commands you
Your plagued by the thought
The struggle continues
It's like I know nothing about you
I feel like a fraud
Lost cause
the cures what makes me sick
A silhouette
A prideful silhouette
Hoping to cast out tall
Some place other than the dark
Revile them just to see what you see
I get it I get it I get it you wanna be seen
Revel in the success that they bring
Open your mind open your eyes
We walk a different path you and I
I spent the last year sharpening my teeth
Just so you'd ask
How is that this cuts so deep?
Chaining down opinions of sinking ships
Loaded words trapped behind lock and key lips
I spent the last year
Stretching out my lungs
Just so with confidence sing your songs been sung
It's poison envy
Its a hell of a place to live
In the back seat of your car
The cure is what makes me sick
Envy

Revive deminished lights
Broken hearts and broken bones
The past is what we fear the most
Mirage
Time stops memories of nail and tooth she crossed my mind you know it's nothing knew ALLUVIUM
Rewind
Distract my mind
From conversations everyday
Still frames tapes tear easily
Mistake
Ahh misunderstand how metaphors get misconstrued I crossed the line you know it's nothing new
Just get memories removed
I'm not one to romanticize a struggle
Or brag on lack of sleep
Just blew me the fuck away
How the wind could sweep me off my feet
It's not my intention to burn
Tell me, do I hold your trust?
In this world that's not enough
I know this scar is s but too much
It's not my intention to burn
Tell me was I more than lust
In this world that's not enough
"Merry Christmas, thanks for the thought."

It's funny how hindsight always fucks you in the end
shoves you in the backseat
oh the taste of regret now you're talking a big game
and when you step out on that ledge we'll see how bad we'll see how bad you wanna die my friend
The journey to refine is a lonely road
and I've played God for far too long
I see you digging at my roots
but you can't change where they have grown
before you bury me filling my lungs with dirt I hope you know I'd rather cast myself in flames of all these bridges i'll soon burn because
I'm cashing in i'm cashing in I'm cashing in on pearly gates
I'm cashing in I'm cashing in I'm cashing in on pearly gates
credits do for credits worth no AA
no faith in church drowning out when time gets tough
cash in on hope?
maybe you should jump
I am the devil I am God I am the reaper time won't stop so I'm making plans on cashing in this world trading golden gates for pearl
What's right and wrong
Weak strong
Why prolong
Just carry on
Oh sow what you reap
I give a change of heart your soul
but these memories are mine to keep

Oxidize

This is a war zone
We're living on front lines
While some still protect
To some it's a 9 to 5
Live above the law and
Pass it off to a judge to dispatch
The weight of a gun and a badge
Are you just throwing books
With out reading the words?
Maybe this is the worst?
Maybe I won't forget
If the law states I have freedom of speech
If the law states innocent until guilty
What gives you the right to silence my beliefs
What gives you the right to lay your hands on me?
None
Discriminate on me
Discriminate on me
Discriminate on me
No justice No morals No equality
How is this living free?
Your 9 to 5 against my life
Where is your evidence
I need more proof
Than a gun than a badge
Throwing books
That You never read (X2)
If the law state innocent until proven guilty
How is this living free

Post-Marked Hearts
02:29
|

I wear the shoes of a man
Who's greatest love was just to give it all away
Cutting corners down dead end streets
Found his way into an early grave
With a Post card a post marked heart
A return to sender life's a costly debt to pay
If you find a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush you found yourself fucking settling
With a post marked heart
sell your soul sell it cheap
I wear the shoes of a man
Who couldn't be taken alive
on those same dead end streets
I Learned Respect was worth more than pride
It was a lesson
That has cost
Cost some there lives
Drag my name through dirt
I hope you know
Words won't define this home anymore
Taken alive
There's a point we all break
I'm taken alive
Hunting down post marked dreams
Taken alive
There's a point we all break
Taken alive
Lucid thoughts behind reverie eyes
With a post marked heart
Who I am
What I've become
What I want
What I lead on
Where will it end
History repeats again
Who I am
What I've become
Who I want
Who I lead on
Stop me while I'm ahead.
A costly debt
Debt to pay
History repeats its self again
A costly dept
The cycle repeats again
Staring down at an empty draw
Does this reflection accurately portray?
Is this deraw just full of regret?
Is this what two birds in the bush will get?
A brass urn is what was earned
Am I next in turn?
With these hands I've learned
These words won't define a home

Not For Sale!
02:10

You are not a product of your environment
A Slave to your financial class
Or a prisoner to your peers opinions
Live and let me
If these walls can't be shook
why not tear them down?
Building homes just to board them up
On unstable grounds
Amongst the wreckage of
Weak foundations
Clenched jaws and fist
Where will you stand?
Are we afraid to commit?
Afraid to admit ?
Your voice is loud enough to hear
But will you speak?
These motives you seek
No are not a lost cause
just have been blinded by pride
do you know what you're fighting for?
and would you die for it?
Through these hardships we be built a home
life Grabbing at my ankles and stepping on our toes
I've witnessed
some choose the lesser road
selling out opinions while leaning on crutch
Are we afraid to commit
Afraid to admit
Your voice is loud enough to hear but will you speak
If riches can't acquire bliss
If wealth can't obtain the world
How could they afford me?
The moments shared
The hard choices made
All Set the pace but didn't pave the way
Your weight in gold support the cause
I can't be bought
I can't be bought
Traded or sold

Love Only Goes So Far
04:54
|

One so pure the start
All based off the beauty and the premise
Would go to the end of the Earth for
Not just a figure of speech
Never knew what love was til I met you
How is it that it hurts to leave
So empty
Barely know you?
I barely know me at all
Two never meant to hurt me
But here I lie bent
Over circumstances I chose not to circumvent
Lied straight to my despite knowing the truth
We both knew better but still played the fool
Lied straight to your face telling you it's the truth
It only hurt cause it mattered
Just not to you
Love the first love
You are my one and only
Love the hard love
You only matter matter to me
Third times the charm
It takes strength to be gentle and kind
And I feel like I wasted all of my time
Passed the point of the break
I give into your weight
Why fight the feeling to feel at all
Am I that jaded
Am I that small
My heart is no longer just mine
It's yours too
Do what you will
Love the true love
You are now a part of me
Love the free love
Your heart not only beats for you
It beats for me
True Love
Free Love
Your heart not only beats for you it always beats for me
You can not pretend
That those you love won't leave
Or the dreams you have won't fade
At least not of me
A concept we don't understand
More than a feeling but a desire we demand
A concept we don't understand
More than a feel more than a ring on a hand
In time we learn that all we are is all that we have
Never thought who we are make our heart break
The first
The last
More Lust than attraction
But Passion to match
The First
The Last
Convinced there's no greater
No more than the past
Love only goes so far
