So It Goes 02:22
Hope is self-deceit. Nostalgia became disease. I don’t want to believe in anything. I just want to be free. I want relief from fighting the feeling that everything is going to come crashing down on me. Manic depressively, Passive aggressive, We Ride the downward spiral stylized by our stresses. Obsession derived from masking repression, A sense of self-worth lacking expression. There’s no healing the wound. There’s no cutting the tension. just lights shined in the eyes of the ones who showed up for the lesson, Front row, blinded by the lies being presented. Learning to thrive on self-doubt and resentment. When’s the last time you felt alive like you meant it? Senses On, Tuned In, We’ll keep screaming this message. No sympathy for the devil. We go through Hell together. No pity in Rip City, Time Void Forever. No faith in the facade, fading cracked and weathered. No pity in Bridge City, Time Void Forever. No sorrow for the snakes. We weather the weather. No pity in Rose City, Time Void Forever I Ruin Everything. You Ruin Everything. We Ruin Everything. So it goes, in a temporal space in a cycle passing through.

OPHIOLOGY 02:19
Rolling down a dead end road, on cruise control through the stomping grounds of wasted youth. They say they lost a sense of innocence and purity here once. Let’s take the scenic route and try to find some proof. Sick of the view through glass ceilings, So we’re jumping from the roof, Don’t try this shit at home, we’re trained at pulling up the roots, growing underneath the underground, digging up some truth Opportunity stopped knocking at the door, soliciting shit to you, can’t just hope it climbs in the window and lets the winds of change blow through, we must crush these fucking walls to dust and Rebuild the dream, Renew! (It’s as) Cold as the night I almost died, bright as the sun searing in my eyes, Hot as the flames torching it to the ground, deadly as the game that we’re playing now… Heavy head that wears the crown, These cycles keep spinning, dizzy, dazed, gone crazy, going nowhere, running on empty, it’s wearing me out. Compliments to the clichés, I’ve collected a cache of doubts and self assurance but the cure is simple as the solution I’m sick of saying, so I swear this is the last time that I’m going to break it down Repent the message to your martyrs and vain heroes that you praise: As the serpents shed their skin, We’re judged by the weight of the scales upon a snake. Let it sink in. Shed your skin. Shed your skin!

I will not be broken by this, It’s all a state of mind, Time spent idle in the eye of the storm is an insult to your life. No room left inside the heart for hate. It’s all too heavy, can’t carry the weight. The sun hides its face, the rain falls in sheets. Cut the ropes from the docks and let me drift out to sea. Cut the noose, take the filter off to see, when we lost our voice and vision and forgot how to breathe. Strangled by the struggle, brain is boiling out of skull, everything is so damn draining, no illusion of control, this world feels so hollow, empty shell, lacking soul, sick of falling victim to the pressure of balancing stress and hope. Can’t outrun it when time flies too fast and inspiration grows so slow, nowhere to hide from the hands holding scythe and sickle, designed to reap what we sew. Running in circles searching for a way out, I guess Home is where you find hell for now. Running in circles because there’s no way out. I guess Hell is wherever you call Home for now. Running circles into the ground, Hell on Earth is where we call home for now.
