Lyrics:
Shake yourself awake
there's no time to waste
Gazing into these shattered reflections
Yeah- fuck that
I am done with lost causes
and holding onto the past
wake the demon in slumber
bring creation
to its knees
tell them that we're all finite and
that there is no immortality
bring me the end
bring me the end
and let this life run it's course
but there is more to life than the beginning and the
end
Why spend time living such trivial lives?
Exist for more than the pleasure of breathing
Grow as a sentient being
live with compassion and an open mind
Don't buy into the complacency that awaits you
Don't give into the
lie-
that our mind is finite
just as the rest of our bodies
be living proof of more than a human being
More than the common existence
More than the confines of our mortal bodies
More
More
More

Lyrics:
Venturing-
into unexplored territory
new experiences
I've gained new wisdom with every turn
Breaking skin
a worse pain than any inflicted upon me
I walk away
But, I run back begging for
More
I'm not crazy
I'm slipping and sliding
through life
Swirling dark depths
engulf me
emotional rollercosters going
up and down
Dance to utter dissonance
flail against the current
fight for definition
carve, for us, a new
Path
give us a brighter future
bring us hope to go on
there is no point in our struggle
if there is nothing left to
save
casual interaction
giving way to erecting statues
of half-assed attempts to make a better life
but, of these actions, the best is easily the decision
where, in the end, I chose
you
I forsake everyone, but you
I forsake all others, but you

Lyrics:
Disregard their ignorant voices
Holding you down
They keep you blinded to the truth
Conscious experimentation
Not leaps of faith into the unknown
Intellectual weakness
Inhibiting explorations have made you stagnant
Without growth
Free yourself from the weakness of your mind
Hold it steady
Your will must not falter
Gain strength in conquest of your own endeavor
Catch your breath
Dive in
Go deeper into this void
Emurge enlightened
Trial and error gave way to discovery
Nobody ever got anywhere sitting on their ass
I FEEL LIKE SPACE

Lyrics:
Ridiculous sentiments
of tradition-
al values
what pathetic attempts
to keep us under the heels of fools
You'd drown us in lies concerning dogma
and consequences that bring us no
salvation
to punish those
who've done no wrong
bloviating about justice
with weak rhetoric
cultivating a sickness
a righteous indignation
a rusted mounthpiece shouting, crying,
wailing, and screaming for law
Well, who the fuck do you think you are
to speak for lives that are not your own
You must think you are God's gift to humanity
with all this power that has gone to your head
We; who the fuck gave you the right to
think that you could take was isn't yours?
We aren't toys to be played with
We're not the pieces to your game of politics
We are not your slaves
We're not the fodder for your wars
We are not your livestock
We are individuals, and you are not the hand of God
Hold my hand and drag me down
down into hell we go
Hold my hand and drag me down
grab my hand, and help me down
Fuck off.
Who would throw stones at doves as they fly?
