I jumped on the train
I left this old town
I escaped the rain
I'm no longer down
...

As people hide their evil traits
The darkness in them lies in wait
As rebels aim towards the state
Venom reveals itself as hate
...

All we may be is shadows and dust
At least we can flow along with the gust
We'll end up travelling further than we must
At least our soles aren't turning to rust
...

For you to pass my mind I do desire
To soothe my head and quench my fire
As man grew from the dust
He began to suffer in his lust
...

in the depths of despair one looks upon himself
and sees himself as he truly is.
none of the masks linger upon his face.
all the deceit and lies dissapear without a trace.
...

Cruel destruction, is there any other kind
The loose screw still finds a way to wind
Around it your anguish has become entwined
As it turns you can hear it begin to grind
...

...

There is no home upon that battle field
You from your home they will steal
There is no love in the weapons they weild
There is no truth in the lies They reveal
...

Things are not always as they seem.
Especially when you’re inside a dream.
Time is like a river time is like a stream.
As it travels down on the moonbeam.
...

When the road seems to hurt your feet
And you can't relate to the people you meet
And your demons become too hard to defeat
And your secrets shared are not discrete
...

After I've taken my final breath
Will the world wonder where I've gone
When it's time for me to live my death
Will the light I've lit be shone
...

To you she is perfection with nothing to lose or gain
With her things are elaborate when they started out plain
Her scent and her beauty drifts its way into your dreams
Eventually you wake and your world weakens at the seams
...

I look around me and see a corrupted system
The impure members think they're owed wisdom
My hand is firm and irradicates the dirt
Prevents the unworthy from causing more hurt
...

My ears are now able to hear.
No longer held back by what I fear.
The truth now feels so sincere.
As long as I still have you near.
...

When the world outside begins to crumble
The cold water rises as you begin to stumble
And your hands begin to numb and begin to fumble
Lose your place on the page
...

Red sky in the morning
And as the day is dawning
The soldiers begin their mourning
They did not heed the shepherds warning
...

A prison within a prison
My choices lead me here
Every fatal decision
Has laid the path so clear
...

All the lessons that I've had
They still linger in my brain
Sometimes I think I'm mad
But I'm not I'm just insane
...

Going faster than time itself
Keep your head and keep your health
Your mind is numb can't control the thought
It's time to teach what you've been taught
...

Voices drift in from the endless night
Telling you they long to see the light
You whisper to them don't give up the fight
one day they too will have the gift of sight
...
