Fill Your Lungs
04:58
|

From lies, we can forge ourselves a truth
We think they can heal the wound
Pages torn out from your mind
Fragments, broken glass inside
You'll never see
'cause you'll never leave
Call out for a sign
Your request, denied
Four walls to keep you in,
so small you want to scream
Fill your lungs, fill your lungs
with the voice you're longing for
Outside you're getting old
finite, your little soul
Fill your lungs, fill your lungs
Fill them with the promise
You can't outrun what you'll become
We must crawl out of shells of doubt,
but we push it down, sew shut our mouths
The truth is locked within your sighs
Four walls to keep you in,
so small you want to scream
Fill your lungs, fill your lungs
with the voice you're longing for
Inside you hear the call,
feel the beauty of it all
Fill your lungs, fill your lungs
Fill them with the promise

New Design
06:08
|

Disfigured minds, endangered skies
We want to cry, we want to hold
We scratch the itch, we flip the switch
It's dangerous, it's all we do
And by the time we know where we stand,
it's too late
And all the while we can't comprehend
why we feel this way
Quick thinking while you're wasting away
You've scattered your own light astray
Stand by as you crawl to life
Await your new design
Cursed with a lifetime of emptiness,
unable to fulfill
Idle we stand around, indecisive and weak
Standing water causing rust
and riddled with disease
Stand by as you crawl to life
Await your new design

Ritual
06:19
|
|||
We move on in the usual way, defeated once again
Who has the funds to pay for moments without end?
I have always reached out to you
Talk to me about your mistakes, how you always seem to fail
I try to give advice, but I can't get it right
Pain I can't compromise
it ties me to this ritual
Minds filled with hate
a circular routine, habitual
Feelings of hesitation protected by devastation
you misjudge so much of what you are
Tactician of misery, strategic disassembly
to the point of insanity
Pain I can't compromise,
it ties me to this ritual
Minds filled with hate
a circular routine, habitual

Serenity
05:18
|
|||
A constant barrage, assault on the mind
needlessly vicious, I gave up long ago
I'm sickened by myself but I have to move on
living with a cut that endlessly reopens
Repositioned, repossessed in my serenity
Unrelenting and undying, I.
My vision, however bleak, I can take solace in this:
My structure, however weak, I'll find a place to exist
Cultlike in your conviction, no truth can sway you
Your reality, a state of mind.
Minds bathed in collective sighs
Repositioned, repossessed in my serenity
Unrelenting and undying, I.
