The Forward Line
05:53
|
|||
A presence of unease in the air
A hint of paranoia in me
You feel it too inside your chest
What is all this building up to
Well we won't be here when it falls
Said fathers and their fathers too
But it is catching up to us
We will be the first to see it
A fire spreads across the land
No one can stop its concrete spread
It will be us that puts it in
The final nail in the coffin

Come and Get Us
05:02
|

Watching the world safe from a bedroom
Away from obligation
To help us change and to save us
We all deserve to face the repercussions of the new age
We had to have it so fast
We had to get it cheaper
I see it everyday now
We've all forgotten what happens
In our race to the top of the hill
I stagnate look on and say
Come and get us
Come and get us
Get off the race now
Can't you see where it ends
It's really poetry where greed will take us
Come and Get us
Come and Get us

The Passing By
04:50
|

Get off your feet
We leave now
Stop messing around
It's time now
Go get your love
Or leave it
This is no drill
Believe it
Faces and places
Passing by
Bones and muscles
getting sore
Botched to the clock
Nine to Five
Hold on to love
Don't go stale

Ripples
04:32
|

After a while something changes inside me
I'm trying not to show it or to grow it
Believe me
I don't know why it's like this
Why it always happens to me
Half a day is okay
It's a maybe
I can't explain
I am so very sorry for the nights I can't even talk
And I have trouble looking you in the eye anymore
I will not let this fade away like others before
Deal with me for a little
Because I promise sweet feelings will return

Rubble
07:03
|
|||
It is so fallacious in our craniums
We are a danger to our own existence
Like a dog eating itself to death
Our bask in riches will be so short lived
It's hard to be optimists at the tipping point
You can sense it in the air
Everyone has given up
We are letting the machine wash over us like a wave
We were going to go to mars
Now we're only going to war
Change your locks now and get inside
Things are different now a changing tide
We cannot ignore this a minute more
You're not the problem now it is the Earth
We are burning and everyone can tell
The plants are dying and dust is in the air
Leaders are hiding and the poor are dying
Every war we fight is just for food
Could I ever bring a child to this
To reap the consequences of the mess
Two hundred thousand years and we've not learned
I can't imagine the horror to come
We are losing the only place that we have ever known
Only the worst of us will make it out of this alive
There's a vacancy in hell big enough for all of us
We will burn to death
The lifespan of a fly
We choke on the air
Bacteria kills
Our medicines fail
Our resources gone
We burn as the sun punches through the atmosphere wall
We don't only die
We all suffer first
These humans were born into this
An innocent's death
It should have been us with blistering skin
Centuries of Earth are reset
The silence deserved
With buried rubble
The end of the world
The march to our death

Savior
05:16
|
|||
Watch the snake eat its tail
I've seen our fate
Buried rubble
Come to terms and understand
Mortality and legacy
There's only one cure for me
To swallow my pride and have no fear
I'll stick with you if you stick with me
Together we'll watch the storm
Something so small can feel so large
Our perspectives are unchanging and blind
What can you do but hold onto you
It's such a mess
A march to our deaths

Love March
07:28
|
|||
Antithesis full of fire
A nemesis by design
Flip the switch and cut the line
Breezing through the warning signs
Past the point of no return
A thousand lessons left unlearned
With the line erased we're all on one side
The soon to come crimson sky
Antithesis full of light
The greater good out of sight
Keep me close and hold me tight
Take it on with no fight
Fly away in the mind
It won't matter when I die
Existence held up by so many bones sacrifice
Love can get tiresome
It doesn't ever feel the same
But what else do we have
A forward line to the end
Anthesis full of life
The end of all will come in time
Raise your head up so high
And forever call you mine
I'll never let you go
I love you more than you could know
We'll never let it sink too low
We have to make it so
A world that is on fire
A crazy place for you and I
Uncertain death down the line
The pros and cons of living life
Are we a love march you and I
Are we a love march you and I
Are we a love march you and I
Are we a death march you and I
