Every Last Piece

Melancholy colors fill the room again today
Turn the lights down for me
Don’t deny a friend
Sit and stay a while
Recognize the face of pain
Feeling so alone and hollow
There’s no joy here
Like crawling across the desert, high and dry
Pray the sand worms suck me down inside
Down the hole, sweet sorrow
Save my soul so hollow
Where’s the dream I followed?
Only sadness in a bottle
Where is the face I used to know?
Where is the face I used to know?
Into the fire again
Immunization
Realize the panic has me paralyzed
And no one can tell me why
I gotta know
I gotta know
Someone show me mercy
And stop the fucking lies
Dissolve my constitution
‘Cuz fear is tearing at every last piece
Lift me up and hold me forever
Lift me up and hole me forever
Carry me into the light
Lift me up and hold me forever
Lift me up and hole me forever
Carry me into the light
Into the fire again
Immunization
Be advised the panic has metastasized
And no one can tell me why
You oughta know
You gotta know
Down the hole, sweet sorrow
Save my soul so hollow
There’s no joy here
Like crawling ‘cross the desert, high and dry
Pray the sand worms suck me down inside

Weight of Words

Bury my ego now
What good does wanting bring?
Ever the chrysalis
I can’t change a thing
Truth is they told me who I was
Echoes of disillusion
Ever the realists
Champions of mediocrity
Heavy we fall
With the weight of their words
So bridle your ego, child
What good does wanting bring?
You’re not a butterfly
You can’t change a thing
Heavy we fall
Lighten up

How did we get here?
Irreconcilable difference?
Bullshit
No man should ever sever
Communication with another
Enemy or brother
State your position but love without condition
The clock is ticking
And we’re wasting, wasting, wasting
Our precious time
Brother, I know you
Pity we’ll burn in flames so far apart
I’ll never forget it
The way you cried
Touched the hidden hand
From the sky
And called it Love
Brother, I know you
Pity we’ll burn in flames so far apart
Seal your lips and listen
As empathy becomes a stranger again
Has our love for winning arguments
Left us all alone?
And have we lost our minds?
