you press yourself hard against the floor waging fear without war now the lamb bare against the word hides deep within a storm what would it take to make you do right? now we stand at a fork in the road, we’re stuck in the middle what will it take to make you feel right? it’s like they’re putting a gun to your head at the end of a riddle so you dare to stand against the wind to hold the weakness in this is nowhere for a young slave to-be you scratch the king of fleas what would it take to make you do right? now we stand at a fork in the road, we’re stuck in the middle

it’s not the climb you notice it’s not air that fills your burning lungs once at the summit it’s all the stumbles and falls, it’s the betrayals, mis-fucking-calculations of expectation why are we made to suffer? why oh why why do we choose a master? why oh why all that i’ve needed so far came in the form of burning questions, not answers there’s no achievement no high without suspicion drilling tunnels through my brain; it’s still the same why are we made to suffer? why oh why why do we choose a master? why oh why the seam sewn tight in pulsing red the crossroad marked in ink across each head a trinity of crystal tombs returns the light i ask myself each night…why? all that i’ve needed so far came in the form of burning questions, not answers no achievement no high without suspicion drilling tunnels through my brain

you’ve got a secret, tell me what it is i want to know how to breath underwater i’m fighting luck, fighting common taste i’m at the end of a short leash but i’ll keep running still choking, still passing out we fight the good fight we turn it up, that’s all we build it up to tear it down every night we fight the good fight we turn it up, that’s all we build it up to tear it down tear it down tear it down if there’s a pot of gold tell me where it is how do you pay for your sons and your daughters? i’ll light it up, all the time you waste i’m at the end of a short leash but i’ll keep running still choking, still passing out i see the exit got no time for walking through we walk the plank because we want to i’m gonna take it on the chin you drop your anchor if you want to i’m gonna bleed until the end we fight the good fight we turn it up, that’s all we build it up to tear it down every night we fight the good fight we turn it up, that’s all we build it up to tear it down tear it down tear it down

you’re running hard from beasts still forming you are the prey of dark flocks swarming you are now just an interpretation the fading sound of an unknown station i’ll curl up alone with a wound that won’t heal... well that’s the price i’ll pay i’m not breaking apart my evil dies slowly i’ll tell you what you want to hear then i’m walking away from here …you know this feel the space between our bodies now filling up as the light is changing i played your heart like a bleeding organ it stained my hands so i can see this burden you are now just an interpretation the fading sound of an unknown station i’ll curl up alone with a wound that won’t heal... well that’s the price i’ll pay i’m not breaking apart my evil dies slowly i’ll tell you what you want to hear then i’m walking away …you know this how can you stop without knowing where an open door takes you? when you stop where you’re going you are what you settle for

Car Fire 02:05
i set it alight ignoring the shine this oily heart is so cold i’m mapping a way for getting my fill this highway light is bright still i hear you’re “living for today” you’re gonna "float this endless summer out" and when your genius fades away, and it will i’m gonna burn your endless summer down i’m grinding it out and rolling away so how can you be so sure you’ll see it again across the sky why do you think it glows red? i hear you’re “living for today” you’re gonna "float this endless summer out"… so you say. but it's just not real, these ships you sail away on the only way is to grab the wheel on fire wide awake
