Sunspot

Your form is black and haunting
When running feels like crawling
Just as I hit my stride
Legs cut out from my side
Then the void takes control
And leaves you burn out on your own
That manic frenzy starts to rise
And kills you dead in it’s sweet time
Heavy like I’m drowning
Can’t breathe like I’m dying
When the void comes to call
It’s form consumes me whole
Then the void takes control
And leaves you spun out on your own
That manic frenzy starts to rise
And kills you dead in it’s sweet time

Open Secret

They hate you more when you’re a woman
Open secret gone untold
Same place, same taste, same sound
But they still rise to keep you down
And I kill myself
To give you life
All My love
And all my time
They hate you more when you’re a woman
And it’s so much worse than what you’ve heard
Cause look around you and tell me who’s missing
I bet you can’t guess the answer is her
And I kill myself
To give you life
All My love
And all my time
How much more will I bleed for you?
How much more will you put me through?
You hold me back, you cut me down
You waste your life to keep me bound
How much longer should we bleed for you?
How much more is there to suffer through?
You hold us back, you cut us down
You waste your lives to keep us bound
While I kill myself
To give you life
All my love
And all my time

Mind Temple

Over the mountain
I can see the sun
On the horizon
Darkness creepin’ up
Not from the east side
Not from the west
It’ll come from the face
you thought you knew the best
Gettin’ locked up inside your mind
Can make you feel like doin’ time
I can feel it
Hummin’ in the air
Look around for kindness
you won’t find it here
Not from the north side,
Not from the south
It’ll come front the side
You thought you knew the most about
Gettin’ locked up inside your own mind
Is just as bad as doin’ time
The more they wanna try to steal your soul
Gotta worship your mind temple
Over the mountain
I can see the sun
On the horizon
Darkness creepin’ up
Not from the east side
Not from the west
It’ll come from the face
you thought you knew the best
Gettin’ locked up inside your own mind
Is just as bad as doin’ time
The more they wanna try to steal your soul
Worship in your mind temple
Over the mountain, I can see the sun
Over the mountain, I can see the sun

Cosmic Decay
05:24
|
|||
Harbored in your tender fire
I seek shelter in your storm
For I’m soft & feral waves of passion
that crash upon your shore
The pleasure and the pain
Pure symphonic bliss
The sweet cosmic decay
In our sonic tryst
Can you trust a little
I want the best life we can make for ourselves
Will you trust me a little
A little bit more than you can trust yourself
The fucking world’s on fire
But there is nothing I want more than you
Plug my heart into my amplifier
And feel my frequency cut through
Grind me down into oblivion
And blast me into space
Grind me down into oblivion
Let my soul be unchained

Impermanence
06:48
|

All the rain
Could never wash away
The blood that stains
Forever on our hands
We’re all to blame
We ignore the signs
The Earth will stay
Whether we live or die
Burn
Vinyl lakes
Burn
Acid Rain
Burn
She cries in pain
All around us, you see the signs
And you ignore it, every time
The more they profit, the less they care
Acid waters and toxic air
Now you’ll suffer
As she suffers
Love your mother
If she goes down, she’s gonna take us all with her
Changing seasons and turning tides
Bring us closer to our demise
The Earth will flourish, when we’re all dead
She’ll get the last laugh in the end
Now you’ll suffer
As she suffers
Love your mother
If she goes down, she’ll gonna take us all with her
We’re all to blame
We’re all to blame
We’re all to blame
We’re all to blame

Cemetery Swans

Above, below
I walk alone
Passed the mausoleums
Living among death
What is my purpose?
I barely survived
Why do I deserve this?
Eternal breath
And I can feel the veil thinning
Floating between life and death
As I pass the swans, I can hear them singing
The beauty of life is impermanence
There's nothing to fear or fight against
Through pain you find growth
But as you atone
See the magic in life
Is all that is shown
Why is it so hard,
Just being alive sometimes?
But to have a heart
And to care about each other's lives?
I'm caught under
The crushing weight of my existence
Still I wonder,
What's the purpose in my persistence?
Eternal breath
I can feel the veil thinning
Floating between life and death
As I pass the swans I can hear them singing
The beauty of death is it's permanence
There's nothing to fear or fight against
Through pain you find growth
But as you atone
See the magic of death lies in the unknown
Floating between worlds
As I pass the swans I can hear them singing
The beauty of life is impermanence
There's nothing to fear or fight against
Through pain you find growth but as you atone
See the magic of life is all that is shown
The beauty of death is it's permanence
There's nothing to fear or fight against
Through pain you find growth but as you atone
See the magic of death lies in the unknown

Create Space

I've lost faith, in all humanity
No longer put, my trust in anybody
Up 'til dawn, with anxiety
As racing thoughts come catching up with me
We've all got cycles to break
But this shit's getting to be more than I can take
How many times will the sun rise today
Before I gotta admit there's a problem?
And how many lies will I let slide away
before I gotta go and confront 'em?
I know what feels right and what feels wrong
But there's just not enough to keep me hanging on
Release the pain, create the space
Give yourself room to feel
Don't be afraid, embrace the change
Give yourself time to heal
I clung to anger, never wanting release
Chose to suffer while never knowing peace
When you choose yourself, trust you've chosen well
And break the chains of our chosen Hell
Release the pain, create the space
Give yourself room to feel
Don't be afraid, embrace the change
Give yourself time to heal
I clung to anger, never wanting release
Chose to suffer while never knowing peace
When you choose yourself, trust you've chosen well
And break the chains of our chosen Hell

Inner Ocean
02:17

I am a violet being
I burn with violet fire
I can feel the current
And my soul aligned
I become all I create
When I'm riding theta waves
Surfin' transcendental planes
I'm a lover not a fighter
But I won't be knocked around
You fuck with my compassion
And pretty soon you're finding out
I become all I create
When I'm riding theta waves
Surfin' transcendental planes
I become all I create
When I'm riding theta waves
Surfin' transcendental planes
Some days I'm barely treading water
The inner ocean of my mind
Some days the waves are altars
And I'm master of the tide
I become all I create
When I'm riding theta waves
Surfin' transcendental planes

I don't know who you came to find here
You're better off lookin somewhere else
I don't know who you're talkin to
Fuck off and exploit someone else
Let myself down for the last time
Now I'm finally gonna have my say
You're not takin any more of what's mine
I'm never giving any more away
I'm gonna get what I want
And I'll get it without you
I'm gonna live out my dreams
If it's the last thing I do
No respect for your corporate bullshit
And I don't want your hustle culture life
I don't exist to fuckin' serve you
I exist purely out of spite
Let myself down for the last time
Now I'm finally gonna have my say
You're not takin any more of what's mine
I'm never giving any more away
I'm gonna get what I want
And I'll do it without you
I'm gonna live out my dreams
If it's the last thing I do
I don't care what you want from me
And I don't care if you get it for yourself
I don't know who you're callin' family
So go fuckin' sell it to someone else
Now this is my life
Now I am free
Fire burns in my eyes
Now I am free
Control, taking the reigns
Now I am free
And I'm whole, complete again
Now I am, now I am free
No respect for your corporate bullshit
And I don't want your hustle culture life
I don't exist to fuckin' serve you
I exist purely out of spite
Cause I'll be doing fine
On my own this time
Cause I'm alive and I won't waste another day on you

Orb Weaver

Every day, I begin my climb
And slowly start to build my escape
As every strain, that I unwind
One by one ties me to my fate
As I breathe, I can feel my heart
Telling me this too shall pass
You and me, now forever apart
Caught up in the web of the past
Of all the things, I wish I would have said
Was to let you see the love I held inside
And now the pain, from losing you
Is tangled with the guilt and the lies
From all the times, that you hurt me too
To how I guess I left things in the end
Every day, spins memories of you
I build it up just to tear it down again
And now I wanna know
Where to go from here?
When will I start to grow?
Or just disappear?
The hollow weight of grief
Pulls me down
And I just want relief
From this Hell
Orb Weaver, spinning your daily web of pain
I'm reeling, from being caught like prey again
This grief is, eating me up while still alive
Orb Weaver, drain me of everything that's mine

Abandon hope all who enter here
Welcome to the kingdom of fear
No escape, no get away
Better just accept your fate
You can scream and you can fight
But you won't ever make it out alive
And still somehow they never tire
Of all the bloodshed and the bullet fire
Every day's a struggle just to survive
I can't believe
All this hate and this treachery
Grudges we keep
Have us bound for eternity
In the wake of grief and despair
Out they come with their thoughts and prayers
The act of caring without the care
Lacking awareness while acting aware
Through all the causalities we acquire
Nothing radical is ever required
Every crime their idle hands commit
Drag us deeper down in the abyss
I need another scene, another city
Anywhere but here, is where I'm headin'
Try to make the best outta bein' alive
I can't believe
All this hate and this treachery
Grudges we keep
Have us bound for eternity
Pulled down beneath
To the depths of insanity
Nine Layers Deep
Into Hell it keeps draggin' me
Still somehow they never tire
Of all the bloodshed and the bullet fire
Every day's a struggle just to survive
I can't believe
All this hate and this treachery
Grudges we keep
Have us bound for eternity
Pulled down beneath
To the depths of insanity
Nine Layers Deep
Into Hell it keeps draggin' me
I can't believe
I fell
Nine Layers Deep
In Hell

So let me give you some advice
Just to help you through the night
Everybody will pay their price
'Cause every man has his vice
Soon you'll find out on your own
That all we are is blood and bone
Reptilian to the core
A lizard brain and nothing more
Oh when you finally make peace with yourself
You will see all the snakes who writhe in your nest
Twist and break but what they'll never take from you
Is how you live your own truth
It's a long, lonely curse
From death to your rebirth
Once you've faced your demise
You will see through all their lies
Seek out your strengths when you find
The darkest shadow of your mind
Tell all your demons that they can hide
In the Hell I keep inside
Oh when you finally make peace with yourself
You will see all the snakes who writhe in your nest
Twist and break but what they'll never take from you
Is how you live your own truth
I know that it's hard
To fight until dawn
But stay where you are
I'll find you in the dark
Oh when you finally make peace with yourself
You will see all the snakes who writhe in your nest
Twist and break but what they'll never take from you
Is how you live your own truth
