Mantra
04:14

Bound by the path
Laid before
Circle riddles
Spiral down for more
Verge of breakdown
Force on
Dead-eyed and smiling
Cared for
Mantra
Let go lay it down to rest
Drip fed lacking conscience
Undisputed rage
Beating my head on the
Bars that make my cage
Terrified that I might just break free
I'm bored
These lies
This means of controlling
Chant on
Mantras
From the depth of your heart
I'm bored
These lies
This means of controlling
Chant on
Mantras
Just shows the depth of your spite
Verge of breakdown
Force on
Dead-eyed and smiling
Cared for
Mantra
Let go lay it down to rest
Drip fed lacking conscience
Undisputed rage
Beating my head on the
Bars that make my cage
Terrified that I might just break free

Collective
03:10
|
|||
I have given you
A chance to be
A part of the collective
Consciousness
We revel in this entropy
Our decline from relative
Undermining safety
As it was
To the night we crawl on
We go on
Breathe deep we are only
One piece of this puzzle
As we slot into place
We fade in amongst them
I have given you
A chance to be
A part of the collective
Consciousness
It is my honour to
Change your will
I have given you
A chance to be
A part of the collective
Mind

Straight Ahead
04:08
|
|||
Escape the ride
Swallow your pride down
We're not alone
Lost and scared
Behind the eye
Nothing but malice
And fear
Breathe in deeply
Clench you jaw
Take the first step
On your way back home
Wherever we
End up now
My bet is on the path
Straight ahead
And if we fall
Would we be worse for
Getting out
Wherever we
End up now
My bet is on the path
Straight ahead
And if we fall
Would we be worse for
Getting out
Of the gaze
From the eye
Breathe in deeply
Clench you jaw
Take the first step
On your way home
Know they're snapping
At your heel
Pick up pace and
Find your way home
Wherever we
End up now
My bet is on the path
Straight ahead
And if we fall
Would we be worse for
Getting out
Of the gaze
From the eye

Shape
03:47
|
|||
Made to fit a shape
One not of my design
Tearing as they push
Broken by the mould
Riot
Raise up shattered arms
Feeble as I am
My voice will be heard
Somehow
Only words
All I have
Riot
Raise up shattered arms
Feeble as I am
My voice will be heard
I'm still alive
Respect me
Years spent toiling
Labouring for a moment in
The sun glistening and
Proud
Broken
Out of
The mould at last
Alive

So it Goes
06:32
|
|||
Tumbleweeds of inaction
Blowing lazily away
Bouncing slowly but with momentum
Dancing with us while we play
Soon more
Gather and
They pick up pace
Soon more
Gather and
They pick up pace
All of us
As tumbleweeds
Dancing around
Doing nothing
Looking busy
They are watching
Making sure that
We keep dancing
And so it goes
The same old story is told
Apocryphal and meaningless
And so it goes
This same story is all they know
Threads of lies and
Ill intentions
As more come
Gathering
Building up into a pyre
As more come
Critically
We give them something to set on fire
We are our own wicker man
Of dancing weeds
We are our own wicker man
Of dancing weeds
And so it goes
Apocryphal and fake
And so it goes
Filled with lies and ill intent
And so it goes
Apocryphal and fake
And so it goes

Drain On
04:23
|
|||
Turns out all we need is quiet
Maybe turn all the lights out
Unplug from this respirator
Fade away
Fade into dark
Every beat extracted
Squeezed and pulled
Two Forty volts of will
Try to find a comfort
Brain-dead fools
Whatever helps you sleep
Understand its time
I forgo my physical self
I relinquish my waking mind
Pull the plug I'm free
Let me go from here
Cut the chord I won't
Resent you for my
Transcendence
Unplug from this respirator
Fade away
Fade into dark
Under the guise of
Draining the pus from the wound
Nothing else could
Justify what we are now we
End up in pools on the floor
Flowing into grates and cracks
Now we are gone
Drain on

Aurora (Don't Breathe)
05:36
|
|||
Don't blink
Don't move
Don't breathe
Breathe
Tidal waves
Come crashing around us
Fractured Earth
Opens up below
Fissured sky
Rains auroras of flame
Here we are
Here we stay
Waiting till it takes us in
We are
The steady in defeat
This is
The final thing you'll ever see
Don't move
Before it takes you in
Don't blink
Don't leave this left unseen
Tidal waves
Have washed away the land
Fractured Earth
Has swallowed all we know
Fissured sky
Has burned the air away
Here we stand
Here we stay
