The Only Way Out Is In
10:34
|

I feel it, I need it, I'm longing
Have I wasted time?
I seek it, still searching, I'm reaching
Deep within I climb
In silence, I'm waiting, receiving
Words that seem sublime
Beneath it, I'm yearning, relearning
All that is entwined
We're chasing time
The only way out is in
We've crossed that line
The only way out is in
I lost it, to find it, I've faced it
The answers seem refined
Defiant, I'm speaking, believing
Words that ease my mind
In blindness, we reach out, for something
We just can't define
We're walking, that same road, we can't seem
To read approaching signs
We're chasing time
The only way out is in
We face decline
The only way out is in

My Own Degradation
08:49
|
|||
|
I keep myself restrained from resentment
I often view the world from a distance
Sometimes I feel detached and removed
For me it's just like some kind of resistance
I close the door on my concrete box
To protect myself from a deeper connection
I see the world through disenchanted eyes
I avoid it's light like some kind of infection
I can't believe this life that we choose
It's just a narcissistic illusion
We hide behind a screen to be free
A complete and utter social delusion
I take my pills to relieve the pain
I numb myself just to ease this strain
I consume the lies that I like to be fed
Yet I know theres a truth inside of my head
I saw what I needed and wanted too
I heard the words that would comfort me
I can't believe that we want all this
I need to cleanse my mind and start again
Confused, reused It's that same situation
Yet I take all in, it's my own degradation
Can we find the light to ignite our flame?
Can we lift this veil in a hope to remain?
I saw what I needed and wanted too
I heard the words that would comfort me
I can't believe that we want all this
I need to cleanse my mind and start again

Ocean Blue
03:57

I drift through her ocean blue
So deep and endless it washes through
Her waves rise then fall away
They crash through covering clouds of grey
Wash over ocean blue
Wash over all I knew
Floating through her memories
I see her fears and calm her seas
Breaking through her surface I find
Serenity through the storms inside
Wash over ocean blue
Wash over all I knew

Ācariya

Life seems so easy for the shameless
So indulge the vanity that you seek
Wide awake amongst the sleeping
Finding strength amongst the meek
Can we walk the path we know is true
Or has deliverance fallen through
Can we reach a lifeline from down here
Or will we fade and disappear
Ācariya, show me where I'm heading to?
Ācariya, tell me am I'm getting through?
Consciousness is the path to purify
Ignorance is our only sacrifice
Ācariya, show me where I'm heading to?
Ācariya, tell me am I'm getting through?

The Aftermath of Apathy
06:46

I’ve been waiting for your shelter
But I needed to be left alone
I heard the sound of your laughter
But your words left me dethroned
I’m still waiting for some answers
In the silence of a dawning day
I’m still desperate for some reason
But I can feel it slip away
Don’t you tell me we're the same again
We're in the aftermath of apathy
Don’t you tell me it's the same again
I can’t just keep on hanging on
I’ve been feeling disconnected
Dissociated and removed
I’ve been lost, I’ve been dejected
I feel restricted and subdued
Don’t you tell me we're the same again
We're in the aftermath of apathy
Don’t you tell me it's the same again
I can’t just keep on hanging on
We're in the aftermath…
We're in the aftermath…
I’ve been aching for some shelter
I've been reflective and alone
I’ve been restless for a reason
But I know now that's gone
Don’t you tell me we're the same again
We're in the aftermath of apathy
Don’t you tell me it's the same again
I can’t just keep on hanging on

You seem so far away
A distant memory
You left me here to find
Something you left behind
I'm disconnected now
In every single way
The space between us grows
As the night returns to day
Everything I thought was real
…is gone
You're pushing me aside
To forget the tears you've cried
I wanted to be heard
My words remain denied
So push the knife
Just a little deeper in
So push the knife
And twist it deep within
Everything I thought was real
…is gone
In the light of your eyes
I wont be seen again
I wont be seen...
In the light of your life
We wont be the same
Wont be the same…
Everything I thought was real
…Is gone
