Mask of Sanity

I am not a psycho path
But it feels like I’m going mad
This repetition is getting to me
So constricting
I dare not breathe x2
Day by day
I peel at the mask from my face
Surrounded by hollow shells
To my dismay
It pains me
To meet their gaze
Years to master this craft to form mask of such worth
A world of misshapen smiles and deceit
How I’ve hoped to wake from this dream
My mentality is splitting at the seams
Day by day (k)
I peel away
Clawing at a foundation, I know I can’t attain
Take me
from this place
I’ve been waiting for this
Take me away
I’ve been waiting for this
For a chance to tarnish my own creations
So many facades and fake faces
I have wasted my time
Trying to find the perfect match
Why can’t I seem to keep it together x2
Oh I how I wish to break free
This human skin feels so foreign to me
So constricting
I try to breath x2
I wear this mask of sanity
But I believe it’s taking me x2
Take it away
I’ve tried to peel it away

Paradigm of Lies
These are the words of the ones who exclaim and proclaim that this is progression
You are a liar
So accept a liars fate
Nothing left to say?
I see what you are planning
But we can’t let you see this through to the end
They’ve taken everything we have and turned it against us x2
Such spaded tongues used to twist and deform the tales of history
The people have begun to wake
And the veil you’ve hung is slowly becoming transparent
They need no gods
They need no leaders
Could you say, that you thought your words would last forever?
I believe, that it got mixed up somewhere down the line
(LIAR!!) x3
Get your story straight
What has become of the rulers of the earth?
Their wealth did not serve them
The cup of death shall be filled for thee
It is the dream of the dreamer, a mirage in the desert
The devil adorneth it for man until death
Let not the worth deceive thee with its beauty
These are the words of the ones who exclaim and proclaim that this is progression
You are a liar
So accept a liars fate
Nothing left to say?
I see what you are planning
But we can’t let you see this through to the end

Jaws of the Infinite

Lose yourself
Within mere moments
I have felt the weight of the stars
On my shoulders
Who knew that this would be the way
Out of the dark
A feeling like no other
Within minutes I have lived an eternity
A product of the stars
That shall never fade away x 2
The weight of the world
Has been left behind
All that is left is the host that carries my pure being
Becoming one with all that surrounds me
My existence is nothing but a spec
In the bigger picture of it all
Lies the truth
Within our eyes
Realize that is a psychedelic Crisis
When this is over the world you knew will be a memory.

Why have you returned to this place
It seeks the life you claim
This place has become the home of those who have lost all hope in life
Stand tall and drudge your way
through this strife.
Here you stand to make your decision
Shall you stay here to wither away
Or shall you flee
The choice has not been made yet
There is still a part of you
That clings to this life
A heart that pumps for another day
Don't let this place get a hold of you
I know the pain that you hold is true
It must have been to push you this far
I know that you want to leave
Cry out for a New tomorrow x2
The choice has not been made yet
There is still a part of you
That clings to this life
A heart that pumps for another day
Don't let this place get a hold of you
I know the pain that you hold is true
It must have been to push you this far
I know that you want to leave

Shifting Into Mortality

Oh, look on now
As another god has fallen
By the grace of
human kindness
Your ethereal form
has vanished (J)
All that remains
is the heart x2
I know why
you threw it all away
The burden of
the all knowing
is too much to bare x2
In the wake of your pain,
You have taken the form of the dirt
beneath the feet of man
You faced them in human form
their eyes fell upon a stranger
Your thoughts were pure
on what could've been
Your human shell
holds no weight upon their hearts
Anymore x2
Who knew being human
could be so hard
When a god
never has a worry in the world
I know why
you threw it all away
The burden of
the all knowing
is too much to bare

My eyes
Have once again
become fixated
On such darkened promises
I know
There is no truth to this
The chance to see worlds
Beyond our own
How have you not
Opened your mind
Opened your eyes
All you see before you
means
So much more
Yet you choose to believe the facade
The images that lie before you
Means so much more
Born to believe, that this is freedom
Yet they keep us blind and confined x2
I have seen the truth
Hidden on the walls
Open your eyes and know true freedom
Open your mind, and break from this earthly realm x2
The answers lie within the tapestry
It shall all become
clear in time
You will see
That this was all a lie
The answers lie within the tapestry
I’m done with the games
I’d rather take my own fucking sight
Then spend another second looking at Lies you’ve built around us
Once your lose yourself
You will come to terms
And find yourself reborn
