Violent, manic, fatal pressure
Fade to white
Stack is short
Burn the rest and start again
Fade to white
Stack is short
Burn the rest and start again
And I welcome the loss of the rotten soul
But you keep holding us back because you always want the
Violent, manic, fatal pressure

I walk
Vision's flattening
Stop from underneath
I've been shifting, stumbling, body's numb
Control means nothing
Oh how will this end
Break
Heartbeat's dampening
Catch this with my teeth
I'm counting the minutes
The red tape's calling
Oh how will this end
It's on the arm for you
Don't fucking move, listen
My head is split
System is blistered
I know what failure is
I'm not convinced
Bleeding ourselves when solutions don't fit
I give the question back
Suffer through the times spent waiting for the blackout
All signs are pointed to a fake monument of wings, snakes
Circling the body
Time is distorted around me
Scarring reveals every truth
I can't recall the start and the end of it all
The light separates into colors in the shape of you

Full Tilt

I need two broken arms to hold numbers up
Three accused of knowing
They gave us up for the riches and the golden key to the void
I'll be the one who will say when
I'll be the one who says when this will end
It's the room that's in a constant spin
I'll keep the world outside
I'll let the liars in
And every word they said
Turns into wasted years
I won't forget
I won't forget that
Is the room still spinning now (all around)
Must break or turn to lead
I'm repercussions of all failed decisions
We can't stop
We'll start it over
Barely listening when we pulled the alarms
Every person was running away
And I'm asking
Is the room still spinning now
I won't fill this well
With grief
With pain
You vulture
You fading memory
All, I want it all
I want it

The Ladder
04:19
|

|
We've been hidden from a truth worth living for
Precious are the moments leaving us
Worship all the gold you bought and sold
It's been all we've known
Absurd existence
It's been all we've known
We came from the stars
We came here from millions of miles
To grow from the earth just to end up back inside it
The time in between that we spend
To march in a similar fashion
The ladders we climb, have the same nails in our own coffins
Bloodshot in a crowd of ravenous eyes
Bloodshot in a crowd of ravenous eyes
Absurd existence
It's been all we've known
I remember the way you reflect off the moon
Fall from the grey in passing
We've given up the meaning, the reasons we're living our lives
Giving up our lives
I remember the way you reflect off the moon
Fall from the grey in passing
Filling up with visions I've been
Filling up with visions when you fall
Reposition, it's life or death
The knife's a mirror, it meets the neck
Run it
Cleanse and profit
Absurd existence
It is such a shame we've learned to love

The Mirror
01:45

I, I'll ask to break free from this mirrored edge (It's what brings me home tonight)
From the outside there's a break in the line, it's blurring the vision
You would feel pain if you're playing the part in a brief intermission (Give it up and throw it away)
But you never know, never know
Take it from me, the fast moves slowly from the grey (It's what brings me home tonight)
It's what brings me home tonight

Only by Name

Beckon, the perfect bottom feeder
Face it, you're just a grifter
They're surrounding the cabin, now open fire
I'm about to be found out now
Sinking, always sinking
You're just a grifter
Taking steps to the bottom till you finally found out how
I'll never see the moon strike twelve
Please, let it go when you drag on and on to the tail of a verse
I am alive, but only by name
I am a ghost but only to myself
Beckon, the perfect bottom feeder
Face it, you're just a number
I keep feeling the wheels turning the tables
But I can't feel it take control
Exit through the same old story
There's a flood of consequence
Exit through the same old story so the flood won't take me
I'll never see the moon strike twelve
Please, let it go when you drag on and on to the tail of a verse
I can invent it
Built and cemented
I gave you my name
You went and spent it, I was offended (I was offended)
We've come across feelings of knowing
Left on the table the objects were looking at me, look at me
The sun breached through
As God as my witness
I'll storm past the guards and live out my delusion
I don't care I'll take you with me
I've done it again
In the wake of a whisper
I took all the pain at the wrist
Information blacks out
I'll deny it until I die
Right, right
Always right, right
I'll say it, everything that you think will be mine
Underneath the stained glass coffin
Where the light will meet the earth
I'll say it, everything you think

Why Becomes How

I feel weightless
In the motions
Just an empty touch so no one else feels the same thing
I'm the white noise in the background of the last remarks you said
The air seems colder from the inside
It's like you were there
The flashing cameras from the outside look in
They, they'll find me running from the motions of the day
I'm almost certain of the end
Nothing happens
Unimportant
Just an empty touch so no one else sees the smoke from the backseat
In a time when the crime felt quietly our own
An empty color from the inside
It's like you were there
The view is filtered from the outside
Look in
They, they'll find me running from the motions of the day
I'm almost certain of the end
I won't make it back
We'll watch all the flames surround me
You won't speak the truth
So let the flames speak for me
The air seems colder from the inside
Look in
They, they'll find me running from the motions of the day
I'm almost certain of the end
I feel weightless in the motions
Just an empty touch so no one else feels the same thing
I'm the white noise in the background of the last remarks you said

I can't be everything for everyone and anyone
Who begs for the view from the peak
Watch them chasing numbers
Gnawing at the heels to feel the rush
Of the worldwide distraction
Higher I climb (reaching)
Low as it gets (pleading)
Higher I climb (reaching)
Low as it gets
See it as it's written
It leaves a plastic taste inside the mouth
Lost my voice
Lost my message
What's the point if no one's looking at me
Lost my voice
My message
What's the point if no one's looking at me
For the view from the peak
Stranger give me comfort I seek
Manufactured crowding the feed
Stranger give me comfort I seek
Manufactured crowding the feed
And the strangers give me comfort I seek
Fail to impress
Fail to impress
False status in comfort they seek
Reaching for the status
With their empty hands, they'll worship
And worship and worship

Gatekeeper

I want
I want a vacant stage all to myself
I want my name in lights but no one else
Can coexist in this place
You won't be seen in this town again if you won't listen
Lean on the crutch that we need
Just to stand for all the meek
Keep them out, it's the cost
No re-entry
This is my town
End up face down
This is my town
End up face down
I'd rather be the fucking monster
I'd rather make it feel like this one's all for me
And it's all right, it's alright
I won't be stopped cause I fought to get here
It's all mine
Burning the building down with us inside it
I'd rather be the fucking monster
I'd rather make it feel like this one's all for me
And it's all right, it's alright
I'll be at my own throat counting backward
I'll be locking them out
Light the match and pray
This is my town
End up face down
End up face down
Gatekeeper
Overstayed the welcome
Rhythmic push and pull
I brought us together
You can thank me later
I'd rather be the fucking monster
I'd rather make it feel like this one's all for me
And it's all right, it's alright
I'm going to stay up here forever
I'm way too numb to feel it pouring down on me
And it's alright, it's alright

I spent these years in a deep regression
You put the faith in the palm of his hand
I want to be the voice of future riots
I want to win, it doesn't matter the cost
I dare you to take it
Pressing against the machine
It's okay, I didn't feel anything
Pressing against the machine
It's okay, I left and felt nothing
Let go, it doesn't matter the cost
It doesn't matter
I spent these years in a deep regression
You put the faith in the palm of his hand
I want to be the voice of future riots
I want to win, it doesn't matter the cost
I dare you to take it
I'll wait for it
Wave goodbye
I speak in words that you don't understand
All your heroes
You'll take the blame for it
I won't be wrong
You'll take the blame for it
I dare you, I dare you to take it

Bright Future

I got a bright future, I got some bad habits
You want a blood red street, well you can fucking have it
I haven't seen the end but we all heard it before
Put on your Sunday best and give me four on the floor
I've already beat the odds right down your throat
When your mouth got in the way
Spinning that bullshit into something we believed
Can't take it back, damage is done
And I'll look the other way
Just to see it's the same
Don't you dare speak my name
The words are at my back, the air is getting thin
I'm where the culture ends, you're where the panic begins
Don't ask for me to clear the fear, I'm already gone
Sit right there, you're nothing, keep doing nothing
I spent lifetimes slowly dragging your dead weight
When your mouth got in the way
Spinning that bullshit into something we believed
Can't take it back, damage is done
And I'll look the other way
Just to see it's the same
Don't you dare speak my name
Poisonletter, dig no deeper
When your mouth got in the way
Spinning that bullshit into something we believed
Can't take it back, damage is done
And I'll look the other way
Just to see it's the same
Don't you dare speak my name
I'll look the other way
When your mouth got in the way
Spinning that bullshit into something we believed
Can't take it back, damage is done

Modern Dialogue

Everything that you wanted turns to ash
Opposition's the motive
You won't pass
Three steps forward, four steps backward
There's no onward
Speak your piece
I am what comes from the ashes
You're not the first to oppose me
I'm claiming the top of the hill
Now the opposed has the floor
You, you will be lost
Without me because you will always be underneath
I, I'm out for blood
I want the peak
I want the history to read
I went through hell
I took it all
They'll speak of when the dark horse won
If you could see all the angles
You, you will be lost
Without me because you will always be underneath
If you could see all the angles
You'll take the option to fail and burn it all away
Everything you took, I take back
Opposition's gone, I'll walk past
Ten steps forward, one step backward
I'll look onward
Speak your piece
From the book of the racing forward
From the mouth of the lamb
I'm the one underneath

Pressing play on this album out of curiosity and getting hit with the the auditory equivalent of a building being collapsed on my head genuinely changed everything for me. I never thought i'd have such a dumb smile on my face when listening to a song like heirloom and thinking "damn, i get it"
