Fool To Think

Understatement of a lifetime
Justification no other will hear
And
That's it

Bruise

Black, with a tinge of blue
A little shade of sadness
Masking the hue
Of the original gladness
We'll find comfort from this

Crime For Fun

Steal this
Break it, quick
Vandal is my name
The thrill of it all
Hear the outrage
Whine of sirens
Screaming my name
It's applause, it is

Born In Sunshine

Light of a shadow
Creeping through the
Dark and dim, hallowed
In stories to tell
Kissed by the rays
Beaming down so bright
From the vast arrays
Of stars this night

Practice Made Prejudice

It's drilled into the mindset
Of a twisted insanity
Adjudicated by one who
Blatantly recreated a truth
Lost, souless, vile,
Slippery tongued tenacity

West Is The New East

In the times where right
Is the new wrong
And the safety light
Will never belong
Amongst the darkest hours
These streets so cold
Cracked homes of ours
Happiness sold
North turned south
And this world is turning
Slowly, slowly
Away from You

Make It Easy

Just someone to love me too
Was all I wanted her to be
But she never ever knew
How or why she hurt me
And with each cut I bleed
From, another escape route
It's become more than a need
Still, these scars suit
Me down to the ground
Because they remind
Every day, and without a sound
Make it easy to rewind

In It All

I'll walk away from this
With nothing but an
Emptiness, it's bliss
Once you push past
The fact you're not missed

Art Of Breaking

As quietly as you can
Without them hearing you
Shout in a voice of static
That cascades waves of noiseless
Mishaps and
The loudest crack, the split-two
Of a broken heart in an attic
Above the bliss, belonging to the voiceless

Reasons

You want reasons
Why my restless mind steals my sleep away
Why these dark thoughts keep me this way
Trapped inside a cage built to house the insane
Why my arm's carved in more ways than one
Why I try convince myself that the end hasn't come
And there's nowhere I can run
You really want the reasons?

The Slam

Turn over the tables
In a rage so blind
You'll cut all the cables
Linked to you from behind
Holding you back
From that ledge so close
Yeah, I know you want to jump
I dare you
This is it, the decision to make
This is the slam

Anthem For The Lost

Good for a distraction
Forgotten in a second's fraction
No one remembers the lost

Hold on till you can walk alone
Once you're steady and strong
Push away from brought you along
Everyone forgets the lost

He tries so hard to be everything
She needs, only to be second to nothing
Nothing's name is someone else
And he's placed back on the shelf
He joined the lost

Graffitification

Take this can
Make my presence known
You'll see me everwhere
You go, I'm watching you
Through this paint
On the walls and the billboards
Floating high above
Or down below it all
I'll make sure
You see me

Vague In Clarity

Can hear the words
They aren't flowing
Like they should be
Can feel this melody
It isn't flowing
The way it could be
Can see this image
That's not flowing
How it would be
Then it all makes sense
Yeah, makes sense now

Helpless

A spark of pretences
Lighting up your lies
Consuming my sense
What my life relies
On

Mine

They're all objects of affection
Shining in the light of
You, my very own affliction
All I ever think of
Mine

Bullets

Hit one
She lied
To you
Hit two
She promised to
Never again
Hit three
When you can't find
It in you to trust
Hit four
The one that kills you

False Pretext

Who do I think I am
That I could do this to myself
Hate myself to the degree
That indifference has become
The third most used mask
In my entourage of faces
Preceded by happy and helpless
But who cares anyway
It's funny, right?

Hoarse

Scream till you're
Cry till you're
Shout till you're
Laugh till you're
Sing till you're

Till you can't anymore

Cry In A Tune

When a quaver becomes your tears
And the forte the swell of hate
That's building with the crescendo
Of the glissando rippling through your heart
Accents of aggression, legato fears
Subtly slinking through the sheets
With a broken arpeggio that echoes
Every shattered chord you made

You're left with this song
