The Innocent
03:54

Our lives streamed online, every given hour of the day
No one has ever asked to participate
No one has the strength to look away
Can’t take my eyes off this car crash, are,
You bracing yourself for impact
One hand gives, one takes away
No progress, zero sum game
Distracted by dishonesty
Smile for your face and a knife that is concealed
Cross to carry
Coffins to fill
Cost to burden
For these sins
Bridges burned, left with regrets
No time left, for the innocent
And gather your memories, or everything you ever cared about
Long walk to the gallows,
Up even higher with a longer way down
Can’t take my eyes off this car crash, for
A single second of the day
One hand gives, one takes away
No progress, zero sum game
Distracted by dishonesty
Smile to your face and a knife that can’t be seen
Cross to carry
Coffin to fill
Cost to burden
For these sins
Bridges burned, filled with regrets
No time left, for the innocent
Try to force myself to see, a silver lined reality
Half filled glasses in this nightmare dream
When all that’s worth is stripped away,
I’m not sure what we have left,
this voyeuristic suicide
The innocent have died

Something Beautiful
04:30
|

The foundation shook to the core
No warning or time to come
No fixing this, the damage do-hun
To build great things takes sacrifice
Elements break all the time
Aiming big, break something beautiful
How could you consider
it could end up This way
With all around you falling
You see perfectly straight
It’s crumbling so tear it down
praying for what can’t be found
Brick by Brick rebuild this dream
Stronger than it’s ever been
To gamble your last chance
Divided on where to stand
With the dice poised in your hand
Take the choice so hard to make
When everyone else looks away
Never easy, always the same
How could you consider
It could turn out this way
With all around you falling
You see perfectly straight
It’s crumbling lets tear it down
praying for what can’t be found
Brick by Brick rebuild this dream
Stronger than it’s ever been
It won’t be easy, but it is the answer
breaking things to make something beautiful (x2)

So Serious
04:07
|

Hello, still me, it's never been easy
Been here so long, starting to be creepy
Master of predicting the past
Lost your way, struggling to find your way back
Deny the things in plain sight
Taking the joy from every ride
Right or wrong, you're just half the man I used to know
Time to destress, no need to be so serious, why so serious?
Puppets noosed on a string
Out to dry like yesterday's topics
On which side will the coin land?
Hoping there's a way to make you see sense
Deny the things in plain sight
Taking the joy from every ride, for the last time
Right or wrong, you're just half the man I used to know
Time to destress, no need to be so serious, so serious
Right or wrong, you're just half the man I used to know (Why so serious?)
Time to destress, no need to be so serious (Why so serious?)
Right or wrong (Why so serious?) You're just half the man I used to know (Why so serious?)
Time to destress (Why so serious?) No need to be so serious
Why so serious?

Cycles
04:06

It’s a matter, of life and death
I don’t seem, to understand
Flirt with wrong choices, close to the edge
Lie to myself, that’s where I Prefer
Keep trying, to fix this, destined to mirror it all again
Down, familiar roads , stuck in a cycle again
Tragedy overdrive, here too many times
There’s where I need to be and there’s where I am
As fast as it goes, all of the time
Pushing boundaries, blurring lines
Wreck less in approach, took life by the throat
Then it stopped breathing, that’s when I choked
On, a price too high to pay, keep , making the same mistakes
Keep trying to fix this, destined to mirror it all again
Down, the same ‘ol roads, stuck in a cycle again
Tragedy overdrive, here too many times,
There’s where I need to be, and where I am
I’m not saying (x2) all oh my hope is gone
I’m just saying (x2) history can’t be wrong
There’s where I need to be and where I am
I’ve tried so many things now, and still no change
With this history, you’d never look back
Before, you know, stuck in a cycle again
There’s where I need to be and where I am
There’s an ocean of excuses why I’m not there yet
With a history like this, you’d delete your past
Convinced, despite all this, something more than cycles exist
Down the same ‘ol roads, stuck in a cycle again

Magnetic
03:57
|

Fragments, come together again
Somehow, appear as unbroken
Cracks don’t lie, but remind, fractures only hide
Draws a line, point in time, a tattooed memory
Ground down to dust, from here it’s big or bust
Frantically fighting forces collide, just frenetic
How to ensure the story is completed, always finds a way, it’s magnetic
Turn over the staind page
No one needs to know what you were thinking in that state
Ground down to dust, from here it’s big or bust
Frantically fighting forces collide, just frenetic
How to ensure the story is completed, always finds a way, magnetic
Can’t resist the draw, pulls me in and never let’s me go
Can’t stop what will be, it’s magnetic you can’t fight it
(Can’t stop op, what will be will be e,e,e)
(Magnetic, you can’t fight eeet e,e,e)
Can’t resist the draw, I’m a pawn, pulls me in and never lets me go
What will be will be, it’s magnetic it is frightening
