Surrender

I’ll bite my tongue so that my thoughts can drown in blood – but I can’t deal with these fake words. I’ve got no chance to make amends; it never ends. Raise your hands – surrender that for which you stand. I had my chance, that time is gone and won’t come back. The truth is I’m not moving on and I’m still stuck inside my head.
I’ll bite my tongue and once again I’ll taste blood. I’ll raise my hands and promise this will be the last time. I’ll raise my voice with fury; I’ll raise my head, still furious.

Over indulgence; capitulating to your base desires – endlessly consuming, never questioning your right to the surplus. Entitled to eat your fill tenfold, your bloated sense of self importance keeps you afloat.
Greed without hunger and lust that won’t be quenched. Every mouthful marinated in lies, to help you sleep at night. Society is a mire – a breeding ground for ignorance; a culture where excess equals worth.

Out of Reach
01:07

If I had my time again would it matter in the end?
Swept along the trajectory of least resistance, watching landmarks pass by. Too scared to reach; to take hold. Is it too late to turn round? Is it too late to reach out?
I won’t stand in line for nothing more than a chance to exist in a life of limits.

Aftermath

The day will come when we will have purged ourselves from the face of the earth – an ignorant self sacrifice.
The healing will begin, as flora and fauna claim the ruins of our once great settlements – monuments to our destructive past, with no one left to remember or to care that we were even here.
The scars we left on this world will fade with the memory of our existence.

Strength in Numbness

Push your voice deeper, push feelings aside – there’s no chink in your armor and no doubt in your mind. No hold on your heart; the cold blooded alpha – this is who you are. Your pride is your armor, your empathy buried deep inside. Vulnerability is a strength that you’ve denied – look inside and express your fucking mind.
The pack mentality is your cornerstone, this fragile brotherhood is all you’ve ever known – it’s become your home. But put one foot out of line and you’ll be cast aside. And I’ve caught myself mirroring that body language; not to fit in but to save my own skin – never again. The toxins from your thoughts have stunted your potential; your pride is your prison.
