Drowned
Triggered by a landslide
It was out of my hands
Buried beneath hope & circumstance
Do you think it was worth it?
Let me be the first to admit
I saw it coming
Pray you're hurting twice as much
as me
But somehow I doubt it
Blinded by the moonlight in your
eyes
As you twisted the knife in
Manufactured bitter poison smile
Draining the life from me
Hope you're happy with this
Now you're free to spread your
wings
Tear your prey limb from limb
At least you've kept your goddamned
Self respect
I drowned in your eyes
But I never survived
I found my missing link
Inside my mind
Numb from it all
No further to fall
Concede this battle
But I'll win the war
What does not kill me
Will only make me stronger
Better Than Me
Whisper it to me
Selective honesty
Wish you the best
Better than me
Tired of loving & giving
Receiving nothing
I'll never admit it
Don't get a chance to decide
For myself for my sanity
I hope you miss me
Distance makes the heart grow colder
Time will always be the healer
Disconnected epithets
Fail to heal the here & now
Tired of letting my heart rule my
head
No chance to make a difference
What's special to me means little
to you
Too late to wish that I'd never
met you
Whisper it to me
Tell me you meant it
Wish you the best
Better than me
Can't stop the waves of emotion
High tide hurts like hell
Low tide low ebb low self-esteem
Just want it all to end
Glass Eye
Drained love lost time broken heart
Rage through numb inside dying
light
Used for what purpose
It was never made clear
Turn your cheek & move on
Seems pointless to me
Never had a chance to see for myself
To you to me we can only agree
On nothing
Shadows reflect from a glass eye
Distorting versions of truth
Don't pity me I feel for you
Lost in a time of confusion
Don't visit your ghosts upon me
Don't let the past become reality
Take the chance to step out of
the shadows
I'll turn my back & walk away
Last time I'll let go of my emotions
Rein it in hold it in check
No one to be close
No one to hurt me like you
Shadows reflect from a glass eye
Tell me the truth about past lies
Never forgive but I'll try to forget
Images burned in my mind
Of you
Happenstance
See it from afar
It never goes away
Abandoned lost alone
Earth melt to stars
Connect and replicate
A million thoughts of One
Lost distance track of time
Expand the mind inside
Cause effect and multiply
Forewarned yet not forearmed
Déjà vu a thing of
the past
This is my time
Know what is to come
Reach out from behind
All around yourself
Wrong place at the right time
Right place for the wrong life
Far beyond sense
This is my time
My happenstance
My fourth dimension
Reflection of a million lives
This is your time
Your happenstance
Your fourth dimension
Look inside yourself
Gifts Of Forgiveness
Fuck it man
Can’t you see I don’t give a damn
We’ve been here before
Nothing’s changed
Thought this time
Might get a little easier
Got to put it all to rest
And move on
Can’t kill what you can’t see
Believe to you those demons were
real
I’ve got a problem with this
Got a problem with it all
I’ve got a problem with this
Haven’t we been here before?
Don’t kid yourself that I’d die
for you
I don’t rate you that highly
Don’t make yourself believe that
I care anymore
I only bring forgiveness
Hard to walk away
From the one I thought I knew
Shattered my illusions
Take me for a fool no more
I’ve got a problem with this
Got a problem with it all
This gift I offer
Is all I have for you
Take it or leave it
Take it and shove it
Take it and choke
Remember me for this
Accept this gift of forgiveness
now
Accept this gift of forgiveness
please
Accept this gift of forgiveness
Take this burden from me
Try Another Face
Take it all, take it all away
This time you'll listen
All I want, all I want from you
Is to be true to yourself
Speak your mind
Not that of others
Divided we stand
Misguided you fall
About time you realize
Preacher with feet of clay
Self-proclaimed figurehead
For a generation I despise
Evolution revolution
Time to choose your path
Sheep you lead so thoughtlessly
Will have the last laugh
The blind lead the blind
Pseudo teen angst fake
If the cap doesn't fit
Try another face
Missing
Wheels within wheels within cycles
That bind us to our fate
Regardless the energies keep combining
Serves to remind me to wipe clean
the slate
Searching for answers to questions
I cannot voice
You came from nowhere to show me
the way my dear
Still lie the waters that blanket
my bitterness
Nothing else can hurt me as I drown
in your eyes
Are you the piece of the puzzle
that
Completes me renews me
My missing link
Clearing the mists from my head
like a hurricane
Trapped in the eye of the storm
but I feel safe
Look to you now as I feel you slip
away
Leave me with nothing more than
a memory
I couldn't bear to
hate you
Don't want to turn against you
I couldn't bear to hate you
Don't want to turn against you
I couldn't bear to lose you
Channel myself through you
Feed off the strength of feeling
Missing until now
Clearing the mists from my head
like a hurricane
Trapped in the eye of the storm
but I feel safe
Look to you now as I feel you slip
away
Leave me with nothing more than
a memory
Lau yit quan my mantra
Lau yit quan my cornerstone
Tell me what I've been missing
Show me the way once more my dear
Lau by name lie by nature
Wouldn't know truth if it bit you
Guilt by association damned for
ever
Love corrodes to bitter hate
Hope I have the pleasure
Of witnessing the fall
Hope I have the pleaseure
Of never seeing you again
Tainted golden memories
Stained with sheen of deceit
Fuck you now and forever
You deserve whatever you get
Vicious cycle binds you
Rope around your neck
Tightens and chokes you
Paid out enough to hang yourself
Spin like a broken marrionette
Cut your strings leave you dangling
Fuck you now and forever
What did I ever see
What did you ever give
Welcome the hate like a friend
Sustains me enriches me
So guilty couldn't tell me
You'll receive what you give
In time
In time
You'll suffer
As I did
Vicious cycle binds you
Rope around your neck
Tightens and chokes you
Paid out enough to hang yourself
Spin like a broken marrionette
Cut your strings leave you dangling
Fuck you now and forever
I will be the architect of your
misery
You will be broken as me
Instant karma retribution
You will receive as you give
With this I say goodbye
But I cannot wish you well
In time
In time
You too will understand.
Conscience
It was nothing a brief moment to
savour
Spoke with my heart expected no
favours
Way down inside
Way down inside me
I let the sun shine on my conscience
I let the sun shine on my conscience
Feel it cleanse me
As I face the new dawn speak no
more of you
At night when the dreams come then
I am defenceless
Way down inside
Way down inside me
Not going to change my view
Will not be broken by you
Untroubled is my conscience
Trust in myself
But not in you
I let the sun shine on my conscience
I let the sun shine on my conscience
Feel it cleanse me
Reboot
Shut you down wipe the memory
clean
Start from scratch mould you in
my image
Experience rebirth
Crash the program
Stake the claim
To be who I will
Soul searching takes me places that
I don't want to be
Reconnect only to find inevitable
incompatability
Is it me?
Reboot restart or leave me
