slip into the mask, intrinsic roads exposed pools of glass are closed, in still pose insert emotion, this tremor in time unique for persecution as we rise try to make a connection, pierce shadows binding light reach the genesis within tonight feasting deep in redacted stasis states of entropy release, complete, isolation obsolete a presentation of the effigious lines, lifting curtains to begin again relegate concealment to mobs with fabric flames the life inside is real enough to win try to make a connection, pierce shadows binding light reach the genesis within tonight feasting deep in redacted stasis states of entropy release, complete, isolation obsolete chemistry rejected and all rights have been assigned death to natural progression of one’s kind denying the elemental, system isn’t recognized rejecting existence, we must reassemble this plan into whole! unbalancing us all with this waste of energy the ripples from the weight of separation anxiety quick to feed the illusion with civil intrusion transform for revolution for foundations to survive embrace the nexus where combinations unify our life will not be denied try to make a connection, pierce shadows binding light reach the genesis within tonight feasting deep in redacted stasis states of entropy release, complete, isolation obsolete

finally gone, they think for now but in another light you’d be sound little dark star, bring night to light absorbing all, demanding none a true knight they can’t pull away from you drawn deep into their doom, they think, they’re gone for good but converted to evolve there is light within, they will find it then what they think you lack, you have, you foster for them you’re the disaster of their cage never let them fade away they’ll stay, the cure is in your core in dawn’s light, revealed gravitas beyond the sun n’ still massive reputation unfairly gotten never credit to your name, reflecting all you gave but you go on and on devoted to the brave hope vibrant, not for show but some still see, see it glow and they know they can’t pull away from you drawn deep into their doom, they think, they’re gone for good but converted to evolve there is light within, they will find it then what they think you lack, you have, you foster for them they want to crack your code to file you (defile you, label, sort, identify, reduce) to be your controllers forever unintentionally confusing those within your cosmos refuse to comply, refuse to live a lie ingest, invest in you, your ally they’ll call you black hole, even after all they stole they cannot let you claim what’s rightfully yours stay true, muse galaxies are blooming behind you you are brighter than, truer than they can’t pull away from you drawn deep into their doom, they think, they’re gone for good but converted to evolve there is light within, they will find it then what they think you lack, you have, you foster for them

the deadliest one had no gun fear injection, frayed connection time enough for troubled dreams it seems eternity reveals all things what do you fear when you live forever? only the limits of your inner strength the threat of anything good being snuffed out, caged, imprisoned alone defenses aligned, in the dawn of another’s sun you are an asset, they’ll praise you, support you condemn any who might threaten to expose you, de-throne you condemn the witch, the brave, the truth your slave any one makes you clean, your breath you keep hero or villain? strategic perfection, logic encapsulated partitioned data, corrupted basis encased inside your violent methods applied as remedy to sustain your perpetual memory tasting fire on autumn leaves residual lives cast down indulge to the last, while they burn blindfolding fates, each in turn violence still one does business with spends time with you if you were a stranger, they’d hang you changing history with words pictures with brush your sword and blood with coin and trust muting sensors while accepting invitations into their homes oh, they’ll never know hero or villain? strategic perfection, logic encapsulated partitioned data, corrupted basis encased inside your violent methods applied as remedy to sustain your perpetual memory eyes too fast, hearts too slow, pride too strong dominus aeternitas master of infinity, master of none

Siren's Call 04:31
it’s a long way up, a short way down keeps your lips shut, you’ll never be the one to drown p’seidon will guide you pawns placed on the front line masterpiece and destruction hidden well behind construction innocents slaved for grand design dreams embodied meticulously hides behind his sightless army corruption’s never seen encore! rumor falls the guillotine drifting empires burn so clear yet fires consume only the insincere sparing no drop to save what you should you have oceans vast, and scapegoats of wood fury unleashed on endeavors of independence he’d command a truce, but he thinks he’ll lose throw the tar to sharks, while his fear bleeds through his true friendship’s never meant take in water, stay his ship’s descent lifeline unextended, captain prose concealing sin carry his anchor, walking depths below, no one knows watch his changing light, theirs stays true they’ll take everything and move on without you inserting himself into all they create it will haunt him when all is taken the core was never his alone it belonged to those who breath love, who love more drifting empires burn so clear yet fires consume only the insincere sparing no drop to save what you should you have oceans vast, and scapegoats of wood he wants a siren to call on, but not a siren to call on him intentions de-masked oh captain, my…

Hypogeum 04:22
you keep tearing down what so many gave building up with their remains (your willful ignorance is not innocence) doesn’t matter how many lives you fake, there will still be one you cannot save (end your charade, let the truth persuade) hypogeum, all the weak will live a lie, and never die another’s death even though survival’s inevitable tension will be soothed as truth becomes your fuel, nothing can stop you become everything we need, come let it out odd skins deterring, so kings of straw they spin with fool’s gold not knowing why they’re poor making claims to things that came before, so they keep the status quo over-protection’s just infection coming through the door! hypogeum, all the weak will live a lie, and never die another’s death even though survival’s inevitable tension will be soothed as truth becomes your fuel, nothing can stop you become everything we need, come let it out truth condemned for caging, fingers pointing, raging thrashing, gasping – tie the noose, yet true words would set us loose taboo is taboo, burn the book of life, it knows too much, it shows too much cannot define it, revile it, trip the wire, move us through hypogeum, all the weak will live a lie, and never die another’s death even though survival’s inevitable tension will be soothed as truth becomes your fuel, nothing can stop you become everything we need, come let it out come on, step into someone else’s shoes see a fraction of your world, you have nothing to lose just set your fear aside, see the lies with open eyes thrill’s within the full ride, come get your dose of real life

Protocol 04:41
armor marked and switched on justice now a blur beneath the orders of the law my eyes i shield, as i watch the lines redrawn in digital dust blowing over battlefields split blood out from between my teeth this archaic mod decays, the wires cut beneath they’re transferring signals via absentee reclaim control, before they reset me further from the truth, closer to my doom sorted orders set to execute i can’t close the loop, my addendum must resume always running out of time, i must endure drugs for pain, the valves are jammed again advancing cold steps, remnants over circuits stained star moves overhead, though static spans my sky persistent shadows lie, can’t tell day from night visceral revision, adapting to the dark artificial light confused for lifespark they sound alarms,and mine respond cascading triggers turn the system on further from the truth, closer to my doom sorted orders set to execute i can’t close the loop, my addendum must resume always running out of time, i must endure there were so many more before the fated fall my compatriots of countless wars, they’ve turned off almost all chrome and silicone, lying underneath my skin humanity’s nearly gone, can’t remember where i’ve been further from the truth, closer to my doom sorted orders set to execute i can’t close the loop, my addendum must resume always running out of time, i must endure

time inside paper boats will be their guide, on copper streams bled free from sedimental veins turn the world along the line, long wire spoken through in hopes we’re heard too burning pages as we wake stringing chants like bellflowers round the gate laying bare-graved the array, sunken hands sew fractures we dream of all souls day fragile bones dance in golden fields of gray much infused to death, but they’ve none to lose revels choose a lighter gift, though there’s plenty left to the living still with breath stones approach, locking hands to summon all dissolving fictional in saturated pacts diffuse the world to concentrate with their flood of keys to unlock the gate burning pages as we wake stringing chants like bellflowers round the gate laying bare-graved the array, sunken hands sew fractures we dream of all souls day touching even now your past and future, it will all go on long after you’re gone trailing water lamps to hold on to catching firelight to pull you through you cannot tell them, you are fifteen of seven or searing wind will come too soon burning pages as we wake stringing chants like bellflowers round the gate laying bare-graved the array, sunken hands sew fractures we dream of all souls day

all, is all. you, of you. without, with all. embrace, into eyes cannot see you, mind can’t conceive you, always in peripheral dearest vespertine starlight in your eyes, crawl across the spacial shores trailing comets for their strife, let slip the meteorites down upon the thralls, building toward your plane they’ll never fill you are in between, forever in the void all, is all. you, of you. without, with all. embrace, into serum null of consequence, threads of dreams wound round flange locks behind the line dearest vespertine starlight in your eyes, crawl across the spacial shores trailing comets for their strife, let slip the meteorites down upon the thralls, building toward your plane they’ll never fill you are in between, forever in the void astra inclinant, sed non obligant the stars incline us, they do not bind us climbing into, through minds disaster tastes as halcyon they call, fleeing, pining your cards of court, are missing heads your tarot fashioned from what’s fed the nightcalls brought to life at whim you never call it sin, but then… starlight in your eyes, crawl across the spacial shores trailing comets for their strife, let slip the meteorites down upon the thralls, building toward your plane they’ll never fill you are in between, forever in the void

Overdrive 03:51
cold to the touch,such a rush jettison, soaring on chemical cityways, remotes retain neon smoke on fire, where deckers stray selling time, echelons in overdrive fixing glitches now a runner’s crime electric storms siphoned into every home every device and vessel feeding rise again new rome echo mirage is chambered screen the field filled with cellular debris in vocal dreams over lightwave screams we do what we can, we’re only machines everything is everyone’s any time we want we’ve become terminal undone lifelines measured in productivity their different shapes and heat all the same to me echo mirage is chambered screen the field filled with cellular debris in vocal dreams over lightwave screams we do what we can, we’re only machines world-wide blackouts the underground on the surface now, skinned over the net wherein body, traffic lines shunting dissolution to solution we are the living virus, last resorts are first within echo mirage is chambered screen the field filled with cellular debris in vocal dreams over lightwave screams we do what we can, we’re only machines
