Be Free
01:36
|

|
Paint me with broken pieces
On reality’s canvas
I tried to fit the mold
Play the part and go along
Shackled and beaten
Kneeling defeated
Drag me through hell
Mute screams behind a smile
Never again
A slave to the grave, no more
I am the voice that won’t be silent
I once had strings
But now I’m free
I AM KING

Forever
00:51
|
|||
|
We will all have our day in the sun
We all must expire
Don’t waste your time on this earth
Make it all count for something
The corrupt destroy the world
Polluted minds that stoke the fire
I just want to be a beacon of hope
A love that will not extinguish
There is beauty in this rotting world
A glimmer of what can be
Is enough to last forever

Solitude
00:24
|
|||
|
There’s nothing here for miles
When the music stops
Everyone leaves
When I was dying
You weren’t there
Don’t tell me you’re sorry
Don’t tell me you care
|

Empty Vessel
00:51
|
|||
|
Destroyed by the wrath and the pain
Broken memories on full display
Reflections of trauma
In stained glass panes
Ashes to ashes
Watch me rust
Where do the broken hearted lay their heads to rest?
This life has left me hollow
And all that remains
An empty vessel
|

Riptide
02:06
|
|||
|
There is no closure for grief
There is no timeline for pain
Seasons will change
But the scars will remain
Now fight for life
There is no closure for grief
Now fight for life
The battle rages on
Lift your voices high
Let it be heard throughout the earth

Concrete Jungle
01:01
|
|||
|
When I was a child
I had a dream of a city covered in snakes
A life lesson I’ll never forget
From lowest of low
To the top of the food chain
This is a concrete jungle
The world is full of snakes
We are the plague
Pick your poison
Spread the venom
|

Strangers
01:40
|
|||
|
Have you ever had a premonition?
Do you believe in destiny?
Do you believe in anything?
Will you remember me when it’s all said and done?
In the blink of an eye
The world will change
We become like strangers in the dark
Dear mother
Dear father
Dear brother
Dear sister
Take care of each other
In the blink of an eye
The world will change
We become like strangers in the dark
I just want you to know
You are loved
We will meet again as ghosts

Six:Ten
02:08
|
|||
|
Turn back the hands of time
What did I miss?
Did I say I love you every time?
So many lessons learned
But I was never prepared
For the final lesson
The day when you were gone
I feel you everywhere
Writing these words brings tears
But at least I had you here
Old houses don’t make homes
When no one is left to fill the void
Love began and had to end at 6:10
|

Wait For It

Survived By
03:00
|
|||
|
Open wounds buried deep
Cherish time in memories
There will always be words left unsaid
Six feet deep in thoughts that plague my head
What could I do better?
Was I around enough?
I should of called you sooner
I could have come to see you
Life always gets in the way
I’m sorry you couldn’t stay
I’ll never understand
But I’m glad your pain is gone
Suffer no more
We will hold onto pain
You are survived by those that weep
