The Constant
02:42
|

We forgive, we forget, yet we always regret
I'd give up looking back for the chance to look forward
'Cause I feel like a blind man in a city of lights
Did all my ships set sail, and leave without me?
My conscience needs a constant
Something to latch onto
So I can find my way to you
In this one life I decay and I
Can't find a way
To make amends for all my mistakes and I
Need to make a change
'I can still change'
'I can still change'
It's my time but I'm doing fine
The end of this is merely a sign
Of the start of something else
A chance to reconcile all that I knew
I can still change
I can still change

Life & Existence
03:17

But you're still so far away
and I'm living day by day
desperate thoughts lead to jagged breaths
this candle's burning, the warmth is fleeting
And I see my life pass by
As this wax stick melts
On the floor
Hotel Room
How'd I get here
To this place in my life
And I finally realise
That this life will be the death of me
In my seclusion, I'm made aware
That this life will be the death of me
Face the fact it's coming back, but it never truly left before
And in the end I know it's true, I hate myself mroe than I ever hated you
Dig deeper, Dig deeper, it's always been there
Dig deeper, dig deeper, it's always been there
And there is a difference between life
And existence

Street Signs

All these street signs I pass
Remind me of mistakes of my past
If I could learn to navigate
All the moments that I hate
I could learn to live again
And that's just how it always fucking is
REGRET
There's more to life than this
Open your eyes
There's more to life than this
Open your eyes
We all have our vices
Mine have grip on me
There's more to life than this
There's more to life than this, there's more to life than you
There's more to life than this
There's more to life than this, there's more to life than you
I wake up at the wheel
I'm driving in circles
On these roads I paved
with my own insecurities
Cause when I die will you remember all the good I've done
Or will it be outweighed by mistakes I've made
I'm steering this wheel watching as my life goes to waste
Stay strong it's time to face the past and let it go
Don't step back and let others tell you how to live
Step forth and show the world what you've got to give
Don't step back and let others tell you how to live
Step forth and show the world what you've got to give
Got to give
Got to give
Got to give
Got to give

FAKE
So wrapped up in being who they want you to be
YOU
Don't even know who you are
You're as empty as this glass in your hand
As deathly as this southern poison
And do you honestly believe that you do
Any of this for a reason
You're zombified by your lack of honest sentiment
Your friends won't stick around for your false sincerity
(False sincerity)
(False sincerity)
YOU SEE
There's more to you than this
Miserable search for bliss
and I've seen it all before
stand strong, stand tall, have faith
In all your hopes and all your dreams
(you don't have to be like them)
Reconcile yourself with honesty
(don't be afraid of who you are)
Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid!
(Shallow concerns and constant regret)
Mediocrity won't defeat me
I won't back down
(Shallow concerns and constant regret)
Integrity still lives on in me
I will stand strong
(Shallow concerns and constant regret)
(I'm following through I'm following through I'm following through
This time)
Mediocrity won't defeat me
I won't back down
(Shallow concerns and constant regret)
Integrity still lives on in me
I will stand strong

The Court of Owls
09:07

I see this city
It lives in violence
It sings to save the weak
but bathes in blood at night
Someone please wake me up
Show me that we're not all the same
Let me lift the veil and see the good inside
Please tell me that
We're not all the same
Please tell me that
We're not all the same
The rich fed on the poor
The weak and hopelessly ignored
What's wrong with being unique
In this city of sheep
But this was always their city
Or so they thought
And then they came from the shadows
Their talons ready to strike
You're not worth more than this
And you're not worth more than them
they have come for your lives
They've come to drag you down to hell
It's not enough to know what you did
They need to know why you did this
They're clawing out the hearts and minds of men
and clearing every street of all their sin
And everything that you've said and done
has led to this moment and now you can't repent
It's not enough to know what you did,they need to know why
This is not an empty threat
to this vulgar corrupt society
sick and twisted, pathetic fucking worms
the Court has sentenced you to death
The owls have come for you
They're breathing down your neck
They're eating all your children
And living in your nest
And when you think you're safe
They'll drag you down to the
darkest corners of this city
Where no one will hear from you again
WAKE UP TO YOURSELVES
