a girl was born
then they had a son
two years later on
their presence
brought so much love
but still it wasn’t enough
born to be a saving grace
kept them in a warm embrace
brought a light but it was too late
to keep the family from losing face
mistrust would grow
within their home
then two years later on
the father would drift away
and mother couldn’t be saved
born to be a saving grace
kept them in a warm embrace
brought a light but it was too late
to keep the family from losing face
this is how
things play out
they will have to grow up
while still young
he will have to be
like someone else
to find peace of mind
and see the world
through new eyes
she’ll misunderstand
her gifted mind
and tell herself lies
that keep her up at night

did it for the good of the family
tried to get ahead in this life
it was over without any warning
now we can hardly scrape to survive
you’ve seen my ways
and followed every lie
they’ve given birth to
a hollow dream
that’s already calcified
did it for the love of the money
it swallowed every inch of my life
I’m hoping that somehow you’ll forgive me
because after all dear, you are still my wife
you’ve seen my ways
and followed every lie
they’ve given birth to
a hollow dream
that’s already calcified
discrepancies in every story told
deceit, the only thing I’ve sold
it’s too late
to make it right
now make it right

was blinded by a light
it cast a clear view
we lost it all that day
the door was open wide
been made to walk through
I watched them slip away
can’t find the reason why
they left me here to die
please dear
I don’t feel well
gave into lust
but swear I’ve
broken the spell
you were stepping out
I’ve got the proof here
what’s this about?
honey, let me explain
and know that
now I’ve changed
just don’t cut me out
please dear
I don’t feel well
gave into lust
but swear I’ve
broken the spell
please dear
was not myself
lost all their trust
this is a calm
before the flood
I’ll kiss them goodbye
you know this isn’t right

Suspicious Amnesia
02:59
|

they found a way in
there was no way out
they asked me where our father was
he was nowhere to be found
once you cave in
the secret is out
they found out where our mother worked
and put her body in the ground
fall down and fall out
trapped in grief,
don’t let yourself drown
can’t bear the weight of this cold
the guilt that’s swallowed only corrodes
fall down and fall out
trapped in grief,
don’t let yourself drown
still eager to go on
in spite of the pain
years have past
but still it’s the same
my new disguise
I’ll give it a name
….amnesia….

heart’s pounding
and eyes are wide
thought something new
would help pass the time
heavy breath, let’s
brave the world outside
change of scenery might
soothe my aching mind
keep forgetting
can’t seem to get it right
fear that’s born in dreams
begin to come alive
don’t want to fall asleep
the guilt that’s locked away
manifests inside my dreams
the look on her face
I want to erase what was done
that winter’s day
the words out of my mouth
which sealed her fate
thoughts criss cross
light and colors flow
conversating yet a
deep confusion grows
the way is clouded
can no longer see the road
lost all sanity
on this path that I chose
don’t want to fall asleep
the guilt that’s locked away
manifests inside my dreams
the look on her face
I want to erase what was done
that winter’s day
the words out of my mouth
which sealed her fate
a prisoner of shame

propelled into space
to colonize
the great divide
earth isn’t strong enough
and if we don’t try
they’ll lose their lives
heards of humans
endlessly spin on
packed into a tube
till gravity is gone
the moon wasn’t safe
so half then left
to save the rest
moved to a place above
and the air they breathe
in time will deplete
heards of humans
endlessly spin on
packed into a tube
till gravity is gone
reflected sunlight
an artificial skyline
rations run low
dreams of returning home
the great abyss breeds
a new type of being
in the minds eye
visions then come to life
can feel it all

Unforgiving Oscillation
04:20
|

I’ve been hiding in the dark of the moon
trying to keep my secrets far away from you
I sigh at thoughts of my old life
gone, how did things go so wrong?
went looking for a fight
I waited up all night
want to give it up?
want to give all of this up?
I’ve been to the highest heights
I’ve been through the lowest of loathes
I cried when I saw my ex-wife
cold, her body covered in snow
go to sleep son close your eyes
go to sleep daughter close your eyes
once this thing starts to materialize
what comes next will have you petrified
went looking for a fight
I waited up all night
prepared to give up my own life
for the sake of saying I was right
want to give it up?
want to give all of this up?

Wallow Within

you fake a smile
to play the part
and we’re all good
still coming close to giving up
but not brave enough
oh, that’s the way life goes
time to leave
where you belong
are you happy how
this played out?
still shaken up
avoid your touch
it’s in my blood
found a way to break this off
I’m brave enough
oh, if I’d only known
time to live
where you belong
are you happy how
this played out?
don’t bring up old history again
don’t do this in front of the kids
resentment will wallow within
find a hole
make it your home
just lay down
and fade out
find a hole
make it your home
feel better now?
just fade out

Danger Like Dissension

we struck a new deal
a handshake makes it real
my fate lies in their blood stained hands
I had no other choice
could hear my own voice
couldn’t stop the words from coming out
don’t turn your back on us
you’ll treat us with respect
or we will find you and we’ll break your legs
I’ve been here before
I always need more
it’s never going to be enough
now crossing a line
it all should be fine
as long as it’s covered up well enough
don’t turn your back on us
you’ll treat us with respect
or we will find you and we’ll break your legs
time to disappear
it’s as I feared
I’ve made the same mistakes
always ends up this way
too late to make this right
must hide to stay alive

Half Step
06:07

we've searched all colonies
looked under every rock
as far out as Saturn
and if he's lucky
then he'll get smart
he'll find a bridge somewhere
and then jump off
a symphony of screams
they call for mercy
oh the joy it brings
this choir of suffering
they all say to me
you don't have to do this
in time will see
they led themselves to it
we found his family
on the blue and green rock
walk up to the door
and give it a knock
the kids are sleeping
go upstairs and wake them up
tell the maid to say her goodbyes
and give them a hug
a symphony of screams
they call out for mercy
oh the joy it brings
this choir of suffering
they all say to me
you don't have to do this
in time will see
they led themselves to it
tied them up
they both were so scared
the little boy just sat and stared
wouldn't give up the father
but gave me the mother
it didn't take long
within hours they fessed
went to where the wife worked
and picked her up
she wouldn't say where her husband was
then went out to an empty field
and told her I'd make her a deal
if she would just say where he was
I wouldn't have to cut her up
with tears in her eyes
and blood in her mouth
she replied
then I guess it's time to die
