State of the World Distress lyrics
To the spinning blades of the future and the congression of these lies
Told in the media paragraphs
and designed to mass divide
and you eat it up without batting an eye
You put your blindfolds on so you can drive on by
and that’s just life.

Batty Fang Lyrics
You must swim between the sharks to see
And you gotta claw your way through the earth and learn to bleed before everything around you convinces you life is too easy
And nothing is easy
Just fight for what you truly can believe in
Everything else is shit
and gets lost within all the generic passing winds
That circulate around these ghost towns
Time and time again
And stay the path until the end
Even if the tumbleweeds are your only remaining loyal friends
Fuck the universe if love is not put first and held higher than the need of a few plastic assholes with spines made of feathers who thrive on hate and greed
This is an awakening
Through all the scars and burns from what we’ve learned have marked us to be Kings
Sitting high on a throne of knowledge
With a better view of the day
Unaffected by society’s trends and lies
And then you will be free
THis is an awakening
Through all the blood and tears through hopeless years that’s fueled our voice to sing
Everything is gained and nothing is given
So trade your lashes for stripes
Because you cannot paint a portrait of yourself that real with other images in your mind
Disconnect to gain connection
Let go of the whole design and watch the planets realign
Woahhhhhhooaaa

False Walls lyrics
When all the waves come crashing in
Surrounding your feet
Jump head first Into the water
And swim towards your most honest beliefs
Because fear is a jaded opinion given by a frightened man, who looks away as he speaks so confidently, but will never truly understand
That Tomorrow you could die of cancer or of a massive heart attack
Your expedition could get cut short so quickly of some of the most important acts
Just like that..
So go run and tell the ones you love there’s nothing more Important than the pack
Discover how to hush your demons
With a pride manifested plague
That will rot away the eyes and ears and mouth of all the cynical malaise
Maybe we can find out some answers if we can just learn to spit out the fat
Oh existence is a childlike gesture that just loves doing the juggling act
With no tact...
You got to fight the ugly days before they conquer in this life or death combat
Time doesn’t slow down for cowards
So face the wrongs that you have done
open up your eyes and stare directly through your strongest mid day sun
There will be nothing left to outrun
So now you can
Turn the pages, change the script
Dodge the flurried paper fists
Cut the cord on all you loathe
burn it’s flesh down to the bone
And remember
The strongest fires will soon to embers
Even the strongest fires
Turn into embers sometime

Constellations lyrics
Underneath all of these beautiful little pinholes full of new and incandescent light
Our dreams get forgotten
Our souls get sold and bought and then it’s time to nuzzle in your grave
I don’t want to waste away inside this ole contented town
There has to be more to this life and my story than what I’ve seen by now
Countless years of blood and tears
The battle lost, the death of fear
These knuckles chip but will not break
It’s not time yet to drag the Lake
There no body here to undertake
Even when the tides wash in darker days
Stay the course and you will find your way
Our good times are numbered
As the years fly by we wonder where time has escaped in these passing days
and we’ll scream out these old songs
and make toasts to those that have passed on into the next cycle of their fate
I’m not gonna waste away inside this drunken fucked up town
There has to be more to this dream than the bullshit that I’ve been fed by now
Through countless years the blood and tears
The battle lost, the death of fear
These knuckles split but will not break
It’s not time yet to drag the Lake
Cause there’s no body here to undertake
Stay the course and you’ll find your way

The Empath lyrics
I wish that I could slow down the whirlwind of pain outside
of my front door everyday
If there was another way
I’d shout it to the top of my lungs directly into the flames of hate
The only way to combat ignorance
Is to look inside the mirror and say
Maybe it’s me that has lost his way
Then we could move on like a civilized human race
Instead of letting the media control and fuck with your mind
Cause we only have so much time
Until our wicks burn down to the base
and all of our memories fade away
You gotta love with every inch of your heart
Be exactly who you are and say
Everything you need to say
And help all the good people you can along the way
and don’t get frustrated at what you cannot change
Enjoy every single moment
Inside this house of pain
Cause you feel everything
Please take it away
Please take,
please take this away..
Just give it away, just give it away
I’m sure somebody needs it in some other place
give yourself a holiday
