Darkness
04:33

Gone are the happy thoughts
my mind spins out of control
Winding up to my breaking point
I've gone way too far
Compelled by your beauty as I strangle you
Against my will, I have nothing to lose
You pray for death and the darkness consumes me
Rubbed raw and wretched
from cavorting around
the scumbag underbelly scene
of the carrion thieves
I found the silver lining
in a dead man's pocket
Consumed by vengeance as I bury you
Against my will I had nothing to lose
You saw the light and the darkness consumed me
Dark and down, a spiral
descending on and on and on
through twisting trails
and caves unknown
Finding musty signs of life
at the bottom of a black hole
I broke down the walls and found the other
side!
Find your own way
It won't find you
Find your own way
out

Meltdown
04:05

I watched the city melt, melt from the rain
Acid tears of reaction from Mother Nature's eyes
I saw the trees burn, glowing on the ridge
flames licking at the heels of the fleeing residents
Run
For your lives
Burn it down
Burn it, burn it down now as I say
when you see, no way how (and!)
Now
Burn it, burn it down now as I say
When you see no other way
We've poisoned the well with radioactive waste
Quench your thirst with liquid gamma rays
Lives bound by resource and tradition
The fishermen are really fucked
now!
Burn it down
Now!
Burn it down
Burn it, burn it down now as I say
When you see, no way how (and!)
Now
Burn it, burn it down now as I say
When you see no other way
We've poisoned the well with radioactive waste
Quench your thirst with liquid gamma rays
The truth we face, is a watery grave
Rise, rise, twisted serpent blooms!
Burn burn burn burn burn burn burn!
Rise!
Shit Godzilla rises up, up from the depths
He's the solution we deserve
To clean up this mess!
(benefactor of false promises)

What of the Sonder?
05:16

I stand alone
amongst the crows
coloured a sanguine red
The only place
I feel at home
is standing at the top of all this
Murder
all the lies
The truth
to
know
Is
buried inside
beneath
all those bones
Split shot open bursting wide
spilling all the colours and guts!
My word! My word!
Look at all the blood!!!
What of the Sonder?
The cologned automatons gather at the insane bazaar
Suits of all sizes selling madness at a discount
I will not be fooled by your slick, red rump
Intangible thoughts can't be bought or sold
Live, love, laugh, hate
The only difference is just another shade of grey
The wonder of this world
Is just another mystery, waiting to be unfurled
Go, now, explore
Ask all the questions
Show your love cause life is but a softening of the sound
Out of my shell
I am shadows grace
I wander this world at my own pace
I wear the night on my face
I gaze at this world through a beautiful haze
And I try to make sense of this morally depraved and bizarre carnival
Strip down the lies
Expose the flesh
Peel back the layers
Dig through the depths
Blood up to the elbows
It's dirty business this coming clean
Not everyone, NOT EVERYONE! Gets this chance!
Take yours and run with it, it may be your last!!!
Alone and exposed you try to find your place, it's a bitch to do when you're cast with the dregs
Expected to perform as a functioning machine and act as a cog in someone else's dream
Kill me first, I will not be coerced, enslaved, broken or fooled
The creative pen holds all the sheep and writes all of the rules
