Shut Your Mouth and Open your eyes

Keeping Out Of Direct Sunlight (An Introduction) We are the ones with the radiating eyes. We are the ones who have a fire inside. We are the ones only we can recognize. We've been rejected - suffered the ignorance, suffered the selfishness, been pushed so far down now comes Our time to surface. Turn from the light, that made them all go blind. We've been protected. ALL ARISE TO WHAT WE BRING, OUTSTRETCHED HANDS, UNFOLDED WINGS. We've hurt ourselves, and I feel the sting of broken hearts and burning wings...
Three Reasons Where were you? Say you were gone? Well, ask me and I'll swear you were there all along. Another place? Another state? At any rate, I can't relate. There's no two ways, you're a disgrace. Drown down your fear, suffocate every spark of clarity. Your weakness: sickens me, saddens me, strengthens me. There's no way to free responsibility. Who's to blame? Who's in the wrong? The truth from which you hide - it was you all along. You were there, you didn't care, and your heart and mind were self impaired. Now, all that's left is our despair.
A Single Second Oh my God! My God this can't be happening! God tell me, tell me this isn't real! i can't believe all that i have foreseen is finally happening. i cannot for a single second stand the way i feel. i always knew. i always saw it coming. Enveloped now, encased by my worst fear. i've never felt the nausea of longing to feel nothing, i never wanted to cease to exist, just disappear. Fear memories are all that lie ahead. Never have I felt so lost. Memories dull my senses. Fear tragedy is all that lies ahead. Never have I felt so dead. Once felt so warm, no i'm fucking freezing. i am the once embraced abandoned one. i raised my eyes up to the light in hopes of finding healing; no relief was mine, i was burnt, by the sun.
pH Low So quickly draining away. If you could only hear all the things you used to say. Consumed now by what you knew was poisonous, quenching your thirst for life. Will you die for me? Will you live for me? Kill aspirations away. Embrace a dream that was a nightmare only yesterday. True friends forgotten and all hopes been traded in, exchanged for what. For what? All at once, all is lost. All is lost.
Let It Be Broke I live in truth, complacently. Where's the threat you see in me? Am I the cause of your Self consciousness? You scream at me 'cause I can't ignore the destructiveness that you support, 'cause my life's contrary to yours. No soft words from my mouth. A glazed look in your eyes. I live in the world of reality, you comfort yourself with lies. I will release myself, I will detach myself from you. I will detach myself from you kind. I've seen your life but I can't see how it is that you can be so content in your own ignorance. Its been so dark for so long now a new light has come along, illuminating all, so shut your eyes. I won't tell you what you want to hear, I will show you what's real. I will, will defy.
Third Season Can you feel the pulse? Can you feel the heat rising from below? Can you feel the energy gaining strength, oh so slowly? But I'll wait...I'll wait...till the seasons change. I'll wait...I'll wait... till the fall comes. And I'll give you a mirthless laugh. Can you see the signs? Can you see the changing of the winds? Can you see the stillness in the air? Calm will remain...oh so shortly. But I'll wait...till the seasons change. I'll wait...till the fall comes.
Lower Your Head and Take It in The Body Drowned in flames is where I can be found, my nose broke from being smashed into the ground. What a waste, this place I call my home. Escape this place and break out on my own! I'm still reaching. Try to slap me down, but I'll still hold. In the fray is where I can be found. My head is bruised from always being knocked around. What a fight, this life I call my own! Escape this life, and break out on my own! I'm still reaching! Try to slap me down, but I'll still hold. I'll hold my own.
