Fester

Fester, fester open wound
Create for me the puss and doom
Infection causes so much pain
Oozing upwards to the brain
Hack it off the arm no more
Spilling blood on to the floor

Puppet

Never had time to listen, never had time to try
Never had time for any thing, never had time to care for me
Never had time to listen to my broken dreams
Never had time to comfort me when bursting at the seems
Kept me like a puppet hanging by a thread
Give one pull and watch me fall right down on my head
You never shed a tear for me and laughed when I would bleed
How can you think I ‘d trust you now? - I can’t trust what you believe.
Loneliness is a drug that makes it hard to breathe

Something To Life For
01:42
|

|
I sit awake at night staring at the walls
Wondering why you never answered any calls
I wake up in a nightmares sweat dreaming of the past
I wonder why the finish line is always further back
Is there something to live for?

Life Of Doubt
02:09
|
|||
|
I reflect back on the past year and my role within it
As I encountered personal evils and goals, I survived personal and social disasters
I assess my surroundings and my reactions to them through my own select perception
Which I now share with you in the hopes you feel the same
(chorus of gibberish)
He’s home. It’s often hard to find him at home, alone and awake.
Indeed rare. We talk of our past… futures as we compare ideals and idiosyncrasies
Desperately trying to define ourselves and our limitations
I begin to realize that I can’t trust even those I love and continue to live my life in doubt
Second guessing every word, gesture, friend and family member
Love is a temporary state brought about by insanity. A chemical imbalance. Each member of the relationship forced into confusion and betrayal as it is portrayed through the eyes of innocence and denial

Incompatible
01:16
|
|||
|
Want to leave the room. I start to sweat
Don’t understand. You have me trapped inside.
I cannot forgive you. Screaming to leave.
Reach for the surface, drowning, gasping for air
Cannot forgive. You never cared.
Would someone help me understand?
Would some one please tell me why…?
I would ever want to go through this again?

Confusion
02:12
|
|||
|
I believe I see the truth that you deny
Lost track of you as you make your next move
Rise above everything to make the best for me
I could not see the next move you would make
Late night, you never, I could and take it back
I lost, I thought, something you couldn’t have
You never, I did, continue on to be afraid
For you and me, a release of stress is all I need
If you, by me, confusion of a different scene

Uncertain
02:12
|
|||
|
I just don’t understand why you left me at your door
Why is it that I stand and wait to take some more?
Left alone uncertain to what you have in store
What is wrong with my head? I can’t take any more.
|

Disengage
01:50
|
|||
|
Now it’s time to disengage
To see what truth and hope remains
How can I forget you?
How can I heal?
Now I see you don’t feel the same
Now I’m locked into this cage
There’s no truth
No hope remains

Realize
03:32
|
|||
|
You tried to take me away from her but I just can't let go
You try to take my mind away but you’re trying it to slow
I try to look around and see who’s here for me
I just see empty faces staring back at me
Understand, close your eyes, turn around and realize
I want to go to my home and go right back to sleep
Living life alone with no promises to keep
