Back to the board with the wrong mindset Shot me with the blame but the chamber wasn't loaded Haven't even started and my sanity has already corroded My two eyes weren't good enough So I got two more Started calling me four eyes So I ripped out yours Put them in the back of my head To watch the Traitor's knife deepen But through this all I see is red Look at me with those bias eyes Look at me with those prejudice eyes Fuck We're all in different houses Searching for the light That we see inside ourselves Behind our boarded windows

On Our Own 03:17
Keep coming up empty handed Our hard work they demanded Living to pay bills Paying bills to live We're on our own and we're still standing If this is youth I don't want it Put through the system Disregarded Grit our teeth since we started Our dreams We must be reminded We're clocking in and clocking out our minds Eight hour shifts waste away our lives Ten minute breaks open up our eyes To watch our dreams fade and die We've crawled from the bottom straight to the start I swear that we'll make it we won't let this fall apart We're on our own and we don't need you We're on our own without you

I'm putting sheer emotion on this page right now A lot of this may not make sense but I tend to do that when I think So that when I speak it doesn't make you leave me I just gotta remember to breathe Just breathe Can't let them see what they're doing to me Chisel my heart down till there's nothing left Chew on my brain because I'm brain dead Leave me to myself and my last breath I can't take this confliction Peace after expiration

PLC 02:05
Get your life in check before you spread your legs Figure out your shit before you drown in it Try to keep cool Try to be understanding Tried to stop the constant sinking but your life's a fucking sandpit I know that I'm calling you out But I'm treating you like you did me Your life ain't my priority This is the last time I care about somebody else It's just me myself and I dealing with the hand I'm dealt I know that I'm calling you out But I'm treating this like you did me I've come to hang you from my tree Fed up with excuses From the gutter to the shitter You've ran out of uses

Murder 03:08
You're an embarrassment to my very existence You speak all lies All of which make no sense I can't believe you'd try to befriend me After six feet under is where you left me Your voice My siren Your thoughts Make me violent My trust you don't deserve There's not one purpose you serve You're worthless and on my last nerve Don't make me do this I won't conserve My anchor's sinking You're about to fall Drown with me Lose it all I'll laugh You'll Cry Tonight we both die Revenge is ugly Fuck off you disgust me Cry MURDER Times passed for surrender Get down on your knees Farewell, rest in pieces You're sick of my face I'm sick of your stench your blood will stain my mind As it drips from my wrench Ding ding it's time for round three You didn't think you'd be seeing me Well here I am and here I stand You can't hear drowning under quicksand

I'm just sitting alone here doing nothing No one even knows if I have a pulse right now I doubt anyone would care But that's a selfish thing to say Because my family is always there I just feel this vain lust for public acceptance But I know the real me hates me for it I always set myself up to lose Because I could be their dream But I lock myself in The confines of me I try to blame others for making me this way But I know it's just really up to me I fucked me up in a way That I can never take back But now I'm conscious of my self-destructive ways So goddamn self-conscious Of everything I say and everything I do Why did I stay To write this pain To feel this in my veins I'm just sitting alone here doing nothing No one even knows if I have a pulse right now

New Song Yas 02:26
Humanity is not the enemy of this blind generation This is a nation-wide suicide known as damnation Don’t let your life end at the front of your screen you don’t have time To see half of what you should see you don’t have time It’s not your fault that all your taught is how to get caught in a technological mind-fuck Pick up the pieces we’ve given this is the one time to listen Find the thing that let’s you know you’re living or you won’t be forgiven Everyday our lives get smaller fitting inside these boxes inside of our pockets Trapped, imprisoned in what was sold to be our minds only to give control to those who reap and profit Now you can fucking quote me I’m not abandoning technology there’s just more to life More to expect from you and me Humanity is not the enemy

July 3rd 04:05
The third of July I fucked up my life I had the chance To make you mine But now we're just a memory That only I can see I always point I know where to place the blame So quick to accuse But this time it's not the same I couldn't be patient and bit my tongue I moved on I was dumb I'll never feel the same Like I did with you I'm to blame and there's nothing I can do This time This time I know I'm not the victim It's my mistake I can't erase And I know I know you won't take me back I don't blame you The third of July I fucked up my life I had the chance to make you mine But now we're just a memory That only I can see I took the road more traveled My heart forever black I have made it this far alone Fuck it No turning back

This Plague 03:26
Concrete walls solidify my isolation Mannequins voices scream for my sanity The razors cold blade calls my name Because the cold is the only thing keeping me warm I am only calm in the eye of the storm This life isn't worth fighting for I am rotten to the core I'm caught between a boulder and bullshit A never ending sea of vomit Salvation found in the bottom of a bottle Answers to questions no one has The noose hangs high Waiting for me Keep my friends far But my enemies in my head Solace is only for me When pronounced dead Do you call this living Movement with no feeling What the fuck am I to choose When the only thing left is the noose

Looking Up 02:59
I took a stand Put my life back in my own hands Can't stop this Four lone wolves turned into a pack You won't stop us We won't follow the tracks Couldn't take their shit so I threw it back at them Now I'm feeling a whole brand new rhythm Things are fitting right For once in my miserable life Misunderstood but that's alright I'm feeling good for once in my life For the first time For the first time I'm fucking looking up I'm keeping my grip Holding on to what breaks the mold My mistakes are not my failures My new brotherhood won't be broke We'll burn our bridges and inhale the smoke For the first time For the first time I'm fucking looking up I've made a cloud above my head Always searching for my death But now I can look up And I can see the sky This will never die
