Cycles and Sinners Transparent fragments will never make up the difference Rewrite the outcome onto a different page Get a hold of ourselves and break these cycles We’re missing the point again We’ve got it all wrong Refusing to see past our own ideals progression by corruption We are nothing more than an illness infecting humanity So goddamn wrong

20/20 04:08
20/20 This is more than I can handle Selfishness is taking over me How am I supposed to interpret decisions? When anger is all that’s driving you? I wish I had the strength to move the mountains To pull the clouds in a different direction Choice is becoming my infirmity Another stain that I can’t erase (another stain that I can’t erase) I wish I had the strength to move the mountains (when anger is all that’s driving you) Never thought this would be right here staring back at me The past is so unforgiving Humbled will I ever change? Has our world fallen through the cracks? Is any of this relevant? This conflict an ocean away has come to stand in front of me I wish I had the strength to move the mountains To pull the clouds in a different direction Choice is becoming my infirmity Another stain that I can’t erase (another stain that I can’t erase) I wish I had the strength to move the mountains These paths I’m walking they crumble behind me These paths I’m walking they crumble behind me They crumble behind me I wish I had the strength to move the mountains To pull the clouds in a different direction (another stain that I can’t erase) I wish I had the strength to move the mountains To pull the clouds in a different direction (I wish I had the strength to move the mountains) Choice is becoming my infirmity Another stain that I can’t erase

The Surface 03:31
The Surface You’re selling yourself another lie Another wall for you to hide behind You felt this all before Will you be ready when the mortar crumbles? A second glance another moment Are you going to through it away? A second chance forever lose it No one said this was easy This is rage this is passion So what are you so afraid of? This is pain this is sorrow So what are you so afraid of? (lower lower) Pull yourself back to the surface (higher higher) Find the strength to tear down the heavens Are you afraid? This is your time to make a difference (this is your time to live) So what’s it gonna be? Don’t throw it all away This is rage this is passion So what are you so afraid of? This is pain this is sorrow So what are you so afraid of? (lower lower) Pull yourself back to the surface (higher higher) Find the strength to tear down the heavens You’ll be leaving with nothing From the search for something more You’ll be tossing and turning While your potential wastes away A second chance Another moment This is rage this is passion So what are you so afraid of? This is pain this is sorrow So what are you so afraid of? (lower lower) Pull yourself back to the surface (higher higher) Find the strength to tear down the heavens

Pretender 03:42
Pretender We’ve been fighting blind We’re caving the walls again Each facet corroding on the edge of another dream (another dream) We’re creating truth from fictions of the mind Aggression coming full circle and were left to wonder why What I would give for another day Only to find that nothings the same (that nothings the same) I’ll still be waiting for someone to tell me The reality that something is missing (tell me that something is missing) It feels (it feels) like someone is standing on my chest This is no day for a hero Understand that we deserve this Searching for patterns for meaning that this is real (that this is real) Familiarity our pretender Its in too deep (its in too deep) What I would give for another day Only to find that nothings the same (that nothings the same) I’ll still be waiting for someone to tell me The reality that something is missing (tell me that something is missing) How can I take this seriously? Every time I have to start this over I have tried to understand why So tell me that something is missing Oh what I would give to make reason what it used to be What I would give (what I would give) for another day (another day) Only to find that nothings the same (that nothings the same) I’ll still be waiting (waiting) for someone to tell me (tell me) The reality that something is missing (tell me that something is missing) How can I take this seriously? Every time I have to start this over I have tried to understand why So tell me that something is missing

Anchors 03:41
Anchors Will this clarity be the death of me? Comprehension of the shame that I’m reaping Another calling a different perception Oh god am I losing control? This is more than just a shiver down the back of my neck I can’t go back I can’t go back The lies we told the time we’ve stolen Now what is left of me? I remember when the trees were giants And we could fly as high as the planes above Living the plot of every happy ending Now what is left for me? This is more than just a shiver down the back of my neck I can’t go back I can’t go back The lies we told the time we’ve stolen Now what is left of me? I need an anchor just to keep me grounded To tie me down to who I used to be To tie me down to who I used to be The future always seemed so far away Am I still running from the searchlights that haunt me? If I gave up my pride just for a day Could I touch another face or speak another name? This is more than just a shiver down the back of my neck I can’t go back I can’t go back The lies we told the time we’ve stolen Now what is left of me? I need an anchor just to keep me grounded

Anabasis 03:41
Anabasis A single moment of indecision can become a blot on the page Revisions in unwritten chapters imperfection for the world to see Turn back the clocks Have I been wasting my time? This is worth more than my next breath And they will never take this from me Carving deeper in the sand Waves crash into the shoreline A picture painted where I stand And I know I won’t be coming home This is my blood my sweat and my tears A passion that has carried me through the years This is the product of my hands So fucking try to tell me I can’t (goddamn) A single moment of indecision (my next breath) Imperfection for all to see This is my chance to make this life everything I want it to be Carving deeper in the sand Waves crash into the shoreline A picture painted where I stand And I know I won’t be coming home This is my blood This is my time This is my Anabasis I won’t be coming home Coming home Carving deeper in the sand Waves crash into the shoreline A picture painted where I stand And I know I won’t be coming home
