The Gatekeeper

We are nowhere
but we fall.
How is it we know
but don't recall?
Turn your head to the right,
notice the fight.
See the trees sway in the wind,
but their roots won't give in,
|

Stuck on overdrive
02:33
|
|||
The trees overhead will keep you dry,
the storms in your mind cloud outside.
Wake up now
the moon is cracked in two.
There is nothing left for you.
Grab your guns
and build a shelter.
Lights out til november,
eyes are open wide
And I knew you'd let me down
And I knew time would let me down.

Les miserables
01:57
|
|||
Time moves fast
when you are caught in the past.
Stuck on a hill
the world stands still
waiting for a rope to tighten.
When will the sun go down?
Lasso yourself away
I don't want to see you today.
Hell on two feet,
perfume just as sweet.

Reel men
02:38
|
|||
The warmth is setting into my skin,
the world is waking up to the turn of the sun.
And just in case
the moon wears a smile on his face.
It fades to black
when the lights go out.
Tell me those grey skies won't hold me,
tell me those walls won't bleed tonight.
From the depths of foreign shores,
our hands can't hold much more.
With endless defeats in line
your future is in order.

Til' the end of our days
03:17
|
|||
Of all the cracks on the ground,
your the one I have found.
Of all the loves I made,
your the one
I can take.
The suited doppelgänger of the night,
his eyes piercing like knifes.
Don't let the sun console you
don't let the stars control you
don't let the sun console you
|
||||

This will all pass someday,
waves of energy receding away.
When minutes turn to seconds
senses fade away.

5 years is a long time
to find your voice.
Left with no choice
I knew one day you'd leave.
When I wake up alone,
I can forget you.
Clocks spin
and my mind does too.
Every second coming up with something new,
it won't be that hard to forget you.
There was nothing I could do
this stagnation was colored blue
|
||||
8. |
||||
Cuffed and thrown in the back of a car.
I don't think the future is taking me that far,
the bullets shot couldn't of been caught
by the ones who should of been brought to the deepest of my attention.
Held in constant retention,
the detention I call home
it ain't workin anymore.
The ocean rises as the land sinks
in the end we'll all think
religion the government
my father my friends
where have ya been?
held in constant retention,
this detention I call home.

You'll know the change
02:02
|
|||
Running off to the night alone
to find my broken bones.
When day is night you'll know the change.

Killing streetlights
02:41
|
|||
Directing you is making me feel old.
We all know time is a lie,
every second you remind me
something beautiful can die.
Still the everlasting eye never closes
it'll guide you through the darkest of nights.
Night guides your way home
when the world has left you alone.
Silence follows your footsteps,
the future is a shadow at your back.
At this point
all that is good has past.
Still the everlasting eye never closes
night guides your way home
when the world has left you alone.
Killing streetlights left and right
by ingesting volts day and night.

Not that far from my reach
is the top of an old willow tree.
I can hear the branches speak to me.
5 years of death and decay,
have made their roots what they are
today.
Not that far from my reach
is the end I've foreseen.
And to the fools that stood in the way,
its no wonder your dreams died.
