The Record

Out Of Site, Out Of MInd
Look Inside, What Will You Find?
Truer Words Were Never Spoken
A Continuous Record Playing Broken

This Man Suffers From Blissful Ignorance
Blinded By His Cheap, Skin Deep Arrogance
Vaguely Conscious To His Empty Heart
Destined To Succeed By Falling Apart

Moving Further Ahead Without A Thought
Only To Slip Behind To A Soulless  Spot
For Like Experiences May Still Arise
The Path Not Taken Leaves Unseen Skies

For Only When The Records Skip
May We See The True Colors Drip
The Emotions That Were Never Found
Leave A World Waiting, Just For A Sound

A Sound For Which A Heart To Beat
Raising The Tired Souls To Their Feet
Slowly Watching As The Record Plays
Quietly Waiting Out, This Endless Daze
