Ingested false realities and Trumas never spoken Secrets within the eyes hidden behind a smile Ingested loss of self gone for miles and miles and miles I allowed you Jack to plot with Daniel Jose to lead me astray And Johnny to walk me...

A Beaucidy
In memories I can remember The gardener Whose love I cannot stop Despite her String cutting Through transferring A book domain And she leaves me Here wallowing alone And I say I would love us To live as twain But she speaks not To my words magnificence And I find myself in a puzzling point She comes from a flowery family And I come from a wilted one She gets...

Freedom
The say we are free but, our is hearts is at consciousness. Thou mind is travelling the universe looking for freedom. Hope is lost through the environment. Our hearts are playing with fire, thou hateness is among us. Why the colour of our skin try to define us. Why our souls can't live with peace where freedom is available. Hope...

You Left Me Breathless
You left me breathless, When you walked away, You stole the air straight from my lungs, When you broke my heart that day. You left me breathless, When your words were spoken, You drowned me on dry land, When your promise to me was broken. You left me breathless, When you did what you said you wouldn’t do, Your words choked me, Until I turned blue. ...

You walked away, said you needed space, That freedom would bring you back to grace. But in your eyes, I saw a trace Of something we couldn’t leave behind. (Pre-Chorus) I thought I’d...

I waited for you for 4 years, Waited for you to love me, 4 years of the best friendship, But I wanted more than that. After 4 years of waiting, You told me you loved me, But after one month of dating, You told me goodbye....
