DRIFT
drowning in a toxic sea
forced into thinking you are free
this isn’t your first time lost
another promise broken
waves control your emotion
ironic. your devotion
tide changing with every gulp
another life stolen
how many years must got by
before you see yourself in the mirror
are you tired of your stomach churning
are you tired of your body aching
how many warnings do you need
until you fix your fractured existence
you sabotage those that help you
wreak havoc on those that loved you
you’ll never reach the shore
drift into darkness
one day a storm will come
to wash away your problems
how many years must got by
before you see yourself in the mirror
are you tired of your stomach churning
are you tired of your body aching
how many warnings do you need
until you fix your fractured existence
you sabotage those that help you
wreak havoc on those that loved you
drowning in a toxic sea
forced into thinking you are free
this isn’t your first time lost
another promise broken
waves control your emotion
Ironic
your devotion
tide changing with every gulp
another life stolen
you’ll never reach the shore
drift into darkness
one day a storm will come
to wash away your problems
you’ll never reach the shore
drift into darkness
one day a storm will come
to wash away your problems
spiraling out of control
no one can hear your cries for help
over your gasping for air
drowning in a toxic sea
spiraling out of control
no one can hear your cries for help
over your gasping for air
drowning in a toxic sea

LOVE LACED MALICE
spiritual corruption
glorified illusions
their love is laced with malice
empty salvation
my blood boils when someone
forces their ideals upon
another they feel is lower
falsely giving an open hand
boost their ego and their pockets
all for the promise of being saved
spiritual corruption
glorified illusions
my blood boils when someone
forces their ideals upon
another they feel is lower
falsely giving an open hand
boost their ego and their pockets
all for the promise of being saved
they hide their motives
behind gold and blood
powered by the hopeless
clinging to constructed fear
been made ashamed
i won’t tolerate the pain
i don’t want your blessings
i don’t need your
i don’t need your prayers
their love is laced with malice
their love is laced with malice
their love is laced with malice
their love is laced with malice

Ugly

you’ve twisted my words for your benefit
you’ve become so desperate for others approval
you’ve forgotten the reason for your being
you’ve tossed aside anything of meaning
i laugh at the idea of you as a leader
abandon any hope of me being there
the joy of life died with your breath
i reject
i reject
i reject you
you’re ugly
your actions intolerable
awful with being reliable
you’re ugly
rotting from the inside
a bag of bones in my way
you’ve twisted my words for your benefit
you’ve become so desperate for others approval
you’ve forgotten the reason for your being
you’ve tossed aside anything of meaning
you’re ugly
your actions intolerable
awful with being reliable
you’re ugly
rotting from the inside
a bag of bones in my way
you were never special
you just left me with bitterness
i want to smear your blood onto the pavement
i want to show the world the true you
i want you to see me smiling on your way down
choking on your words that won’t save you
your ego crushed from the embarrassment
smash your face against the wall
shards of bone and shredded skin
begging for life as you crawl
smash your face against the wall
shards of bone and shredded skin
begging for life as you crawl

For the Lost
03:57

overwhelmed with the sensation
of never being good enough
as days go by without a glance
i start to believe i’m invisible
plagued by a lifetime of let downs
my body tense from the stress
of everyone's expectations
at least with a razor i’ll be in control
not once did they think of me
just a pawn in their games
struggling to prove myself
i used to think i had it in me
i spill my guts for the world to see
the weight of failures
squeezes the air from my lungs
collapse into a million pieces
overwhelmed with the sensation
of never being good enough
as days go by without a glance
i start to believe i’m invisible
i start to believe i’m invisible
plagued by a lifetime of let downs
my body tense from the stress
of everyone's expectations
at least with a razor i’ll be in control
not once did they think of me
just a pawn in their games
struggling to prove myself
i used to think i had it in me
i spill my guts for the world to see
the weight of failures
squeezes the air from my lungs
collapse into a million pieces
i will let you down
are you ever really happy
fighting to keep the fire burning
i will let you down
are we ever really happy
fighting to keep the fire burning
reaching out for better days

SEEKING THE LIGHT
Ft. Joe Musten
everyday is a fight
to keep things from
spiraling out of control
misery bringing me down
consuming everything i have left
how many years can a person go
questioning their very existence
everything they held dear
crumbling around them
what can you do when hope turns to desperation
when you find yourself surrounded by darkness
the weight of the chains
that hold us down
is entirely up to us
i’ll remain
i’ll remain searching
the weight of the chains
that hold us down
is entirely up to us
we’ve got everything to lose
while living in darkened days
i’ll continue to search for the light
no matter how hopeless it seems
seeking the strength
to overcome any obstacle
i’ll remain
i’ll remain searching
endlessly striving
endlessly straining
endlessly grasping for anything
endlessly striving
endlessly straining
endlessly grasping
striving, straining, grasping
striving, straining, grasping for anything
striving, straining, grasping
striving, straining, grasping
striving, straining, grasping
striving, straining, grasping for anything

AFTERMATH
killing yourself slowly
your choices will only bring pain
killing yourself slowly
your choices will only bring pain
lungs filled with death
will begin to choke
faster your demise will come
plenty of chances were offered to you
crushed them with your denial
killing yourself slowly
your choices will only bring pain
killing yourself slowly
your choices will only bring pain
your sickness isn't contagious
but it started from weakness
with arteries of ash and yellow teeth to match
you’ll be decaying from the inside out
a zombie relying on the poison that created you
killing yourself slowly
your choices will only bring pain
your life is like a wilting rose
losing cherished pieces of yourself
how can you expect anyone to care
we all know he consequences
you knew the outcome
you knew the outcome
how can you expect anyone to care
we all know he consequences
you knew the outcome
you knew the outcome

EXIT
i want to disappear
let go of everything
detach from what I hold dear
so i can feel true freedom
disconnected from the world that I walk
i no longer understand the point of it all
piece by piece i’ll fade
eyes sunken black
my mind can’t focus
miserable where I am
the air I breathe
has become repulsive
surrounded by trash
that engulfs everything like a flame
I want to disappear completely
I want to disappear completely
I want to disappear completely
I want to disappear completely
I want to disappear completely
I want to disappear completely
