See the Light

Take time out of your busy day
Life's hard, all that grey
Got a cramp stepping on your back, babe
Always there, but you don't feel it
Break necks, adversary
Cash checks, blessed many
Stacked decks, luminary
Love wreck, had it coming
You won't see the light
You won't see the light at the end of the tunnel
All will take delight
All will take delight unto all of your suffering
All done for nothing, yea

Synth Bed

|
Feelin' out of my head
Gonna cry in my synth bed
Hangin' round by the lake
Can't get cinnamon bake
Talking bout me too late
Those foes have sealed their fate
No snow in Tahoe this year
Hit casinos and down some beers
Proud of my life and the choices I make
No regrets about the things that I state
When your words turn my thoughts to red
Gonna cry in my synth bed

It's a draw, a fatal flaw.
A pardon in the courtroom, got the gall.
A dark horse in a locked stall,
Sleeping with a nightlight in the hall
Pain in the lumbar, Stand tall
Burn the fumes then hit you the wall
Take no heed to what you need
You picking battles with yourself
Until your body bleeds
Scream in the middle of the night
The spreadsheet does not add up right
My mind is twisted in the
'What was I thinking'
Ohhhh
Hashtag - Dad Life
Better slow your body down
Role-play the whole day
Glitter in the coffee, sand tray
Gremlin on the rampage
Love the lovely little girl masquerade
Disregard my mayday
Tides of impediment wash away
Putting in time will make a family shine
Make you realize what life can be
So I say party time!
The moments cut you like a knife
Amidst frustration and the strife
Serenity appears. What was I thinking?
Ohhhh

Communion
03:26
|
|||
|
All will hail the broken eye of deity
Bringing forth the consequence of
master gene sequences
Peeking out into the aisle
what do you see
Revel in the doing of a
make believe communion
Token is broken,
A joke in the cloakin'
Place a coin in the jar
Watch it disappear
Woke and misspoken,
a hoax in the hopin'
Racing to the finish line,
The end is drawing near
Feel the rays of light
Radiate
Temporary sight
Acclimated drain
The rays of light
Radiate and fade away Iike wafers

Confession
04:39
|
|||
|
Idolize, analyse my demise, criticize
Double wide terrorize, minimize, telling lies
Tidal rise,breaking ties,hidden guise,getting wise
Countryside homicide, childhood dies, finalize
Will you take my confession alone
Will you take my confession alone
I am just like you
Got a lot of things/work to do
I wait for you to turn your back to feel the burn
I am just like you
Got a lot of things/work to do
I confess I bless myself with tidings of you
Culminate, so sedate, calculate steps I take
Boilerplate, inundate, set the bait, oscillate
Subjugate, perpetrate, obligate, abdicate
Cultivate, hesitate, infiltrate, consecrate

Confirmation
06:07
|
|||
|
I can't get to sleep
My reality
Try, thinking so bleak
Friends lost from my reach
Will I live another day
When the sunlight fades away
Is there something more?
Confirmation of my life
Malformation of design
Places further more beyond the door
While still waters run deep
Inside looking for a key
Life on a marquee
Trial, tryin' to breathe

Far From Home and Sleepless Nights
We knew everything about everything
As the meters burned on bright
Raccoon man and the boy of plaid
Reel to reel, it was so unreal
But it was all we ever had
Place the chimes off axis of the mic
The Prodigy patch so ghost-like
Later on, we'll have... tuna and barbecue corn
Bouncing tracks, proud labor of love
That carpet smell reminds me of
The bayouside....
Summer of 94

Brave
05:01
|
|||
|
Eternal famous sadist, scraping ground
Pomade of grey, the betrayed,
An equate of love
Oh no, I can't evolve no more
Always known,
I'm not brave to say this thing aloud
Bruising has faded, abated, a hated one
Power evaded, made a blade undone
Oh no, you cant evolve no more
Always known
I'm not brave to say this thing aloud.

Parlay
03:00
|
|||
|
Cold, an island of grief
Lost by prophecy
Moors in the distance, so bleak
Boards on the quarterdeck creak
Dry of rum and of wine
Writhe in the salt and the sky
Memory gone at the end of days
Parts were played, a masquerade
All they said, their words a blade
Read the headlines yesterday
Watch the world erode away
Watch the world erode away
Watch the world erode away
Found down on the kitchen floor
Maybe she really loved him more
Maybe she really loved him more
Than me
All of these injustices,
How to make the most of this
Anger with a trigger finger
You know I'm not one to linger
Consciousness is getting nearer
Trying not to be a hero
Overcome the hate and fear
Wait until the coast is clear
Parlay at the exit door
Or we'll leave here nevermore

Hey there Lorna Dune
The light of a full moon
I'll give you anything... and more
We wait upon the floor
To see the open door
Take me down to cherry hill
And give me my bag of pills
The love I feel has
drifted through this town in smoke
I cannot take it no more
Hey there Lorna Dune
I will be with you soon
I'll give you anything... and more
Flag the people down
And wear a broken crown
For thou art whom I adore
The love I feel has
drifted through this town in smoke
I cannot take it no more
The hate I feel has
Tainted out my chance of hope
I cannot take it no more
