Put Down 04:36
I'm at a loss for words now Enunciate all hours fleeting False impressions reconciling and all these faces demonizing Lets do it all again now Vicious cycles never ending This parasitic disenchantment Growing tired of compromising Put Down Struck to the ground And this is what we have worked so hard for? These conversations lead us on and on To resolutions out of reach now gone Moving faster. Gracefully onward She's the deer in headlights, now The only one whose running out Put Down, Struck to the ground fatally wounded crying… I’ve been put down Struck to the ground Without warning Black and blue, marks its territory Bleeding hearts failing Infrared, all incriminating And Without warning Black and blue, paralyzing me. Heartbeat ceasing Infrared, all disclosed. Look. Out. Right behind you. Blink. Shout. It’ll all be over soon. Take a glimpse at all your world has been. Remarkable how mundane turns reverent. Quick. Jump. One last chance my dear. Put. Down. ‘tween the asphalt and air. Flip a switch and all your fears have changed. Transformed from what they used to say. Finally found my tongue, how? Enunciate all pulse now fleeting False impression all deciding one mere driver demonizing Without warning Black and blue, marks its territory Bleeding hearts failing Infrared, all incriminating And Without warning Black and blue, paralyzing me. Heartbeat ceasing Infrared, all disclosing...

Revenants 08:45
REVENANTS Breathe again now Scream unto them. This reckoning, and decree that they leave… When there's nothing left to say Nothing more than counting bodies Crawling away Stirring in their graves, Ya this evil has a new face Grinning widely disarray These dead things they stew and they grew Evacuates the new, oh so cruel. Live again now Scream unto them. This reckoning, and decree that they leave… When there's nothing left to say Nothing more than counting bodies Crawling away Terrorizing from the grave Ya this evil has a new face Hell on earth, this disarray These dead things they stew and they grew Evacuates the new, oh so cruel. Glory to your figurehead Loyalty to a lower power Amen… they said… Bow down to your maker Loyalty to the lowest power Hallelujah On your knees, you feel the pressure Cold steel barrel, pull the trigger Eradication Bow down to your maker As loyalty has lost its power Amen… Hole in your empty head Brainwashed by all they said Amen… Redemption’s not your haven Burn in hell for the lives you’ve taken Amen… Redemption’s not your haven Burn in hell for the lives you’ve taken Amen…they said. On your knees, you feel the pressure Cold steel barrel, pull the trigger Breathe again now Scream unto them. These revenants, and decree that they leave… Scream unto them, won’t you scream? When there's nothing left to say Nothing more than counting bodies Crawling away Terrorizing from the grave Ya this evil has a new face Hell on earth, this disarray These dead things they stew and they grew Evacuates the new, oh so cruel.
