You wove the very foundations to be seemingly fair
Everything stood firm and still
You did this by the words your mouths fill.

Seven centuries you took to...

The wild night awakens from the dream of an imploding inferno,
Stretching lazily, with tangled strands like waves of darkness,
Tossing aside the serene blankets of the full golden winter moon,
To dance barefoot on frozen floors, like...

all the forwards, backwards, ups and downs-
Of my mania I just couldn’t let go, 
I found it to be an elated sensation

Every pawn is different 
It's that drug we...

And dances barefoot on the...

A blindfold of choice
to circumnavigate the truth
a pestilence of history
to be spewed into their time

And so by hunger relinquish their lives

Such a covetous will
and in...

I wanna live again
be an ageless punk
Have meaningless sex
before I get too drunk
I wanna dance on the hood
of a 'Luxury car'

 All my friends in a frenzy
Black spots...

Hey, at least I write.
Its my only defense against the 
world
And its many red lights

I'm good to go, who hasn't seen

Just passionately listening

There's so much pressure
On our situations
We kill this time

Today’s students strive only to meet expectations
We used to go all out to exceed expectations
Young people have no real goals, just vague destinations
Their minds seem to be set on low-level vibrations

You’ll see the enemy when you turn around

GRANDMOTHER!  Wake up!  
Can’t you hear us crying?

The enchanted walls stained with nightly lust

Damn these days of separation,
we both react out of desperation.

Where simple logic is thrown aside,
and dog eat dog reeks of self pride.

Trying to survive with no obligations,
loosing my mind knowing my past fixations.
