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
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
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
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
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
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
