Spate
Denial filled the lake
This dam's about to break
Our hubris pulls the shades
But cannot stop the spate
It's coming
It's mowing down
It's only purpose is to put us in the ground
Our time is fleeting, so use it well
The longest journey is back through hell
We search our lives for meaning
Some truth behind the feeling
We tie the tourniquet of greiving
But nothing stops the bleeding
We will not suffer anymore
If we accept that death is at the door
We take our chances and sins in kind
Our fickle actions are lost in time
We pray for future to cleanse our crimes
A species consumed by it's own mind
We beg for something freeing
Some escape from all the needing
We're trapped inside our own derangement
But it won't change if we don't change it
We must take back our time
And elevate our minds
Above the foolish thoughts
That decimate our lives
Denial filled the lake
This dam's about to break
Our hubris pulls the shades
But cannot stop the spate
We must take back our time
And elevate our minds
We cannot stop the spate
We cannot stop the spate

The Crown

The Crown
Severance promised never came to fruition
Severed the populace, victims of blind ambition
Freedom we thought we attained
For which we fought, we bled, we blamed
On the pious, sanctimonious few
Who tried to push their virtues
All throughout history
Man creates his own misery
Following recklessly
The bloody hands of royalty
Count the days until our path is swallowed by
These thorns of nevermore
That cease the vision in our eyes
Escape our fate
Our plight
Reclaim our peace
Our lives
We'll breach the silence that you've created
To keep our voices down
Expose the violence that's perpetrated
By descendants of the crown
The minds they've harnessed
End up bending to their will
Count the years
And watch our time get swallowed by
The cold indifference
That trickles down from those on high
We need to speak our minds
We must take back our time
We'll breach the silence that you've created
To keep our voices down
Expose the violence that's perpetrated
By descendants of the crown
The minds they've harnessed
Are defending terror still
No matter how we pray
Rains that come will wash us all away
And now they'll try to deny
As they beg to the sky
Using only their faith
They cannot stop the wave
And the wave is crashing down
They cannot stop the wave
And the wave is crashing down
The wave is crashing down
