Before After Again - Concrete
Dry another teardrop
Put it in your makeup
The lens is calling
It’s on your face
Looking for another
Way to hide the trauma
Your head is spinning
It's not too late
She’s alright
Don’t dilate
I'm not too sorry to say
All alone
On her way
Her catatonic gaze
Pop another shot love
Cut it but it won’t stop
Your mirror flashes in your disgrace
Silent as the pin drops
Quiet for the moment
Add a little plastic to your disguise
She’s alright
Don’t dilate
I’m not too sorry to say
All alone
On her way
Her catatonic gaze
She’s alright
Don’t dilate
I'm not too sorry to say
All alone
On her way
Her catatonic gaze
Kevin Hartnell - Endless Sky
Under an endless sky
The night would pass us by, again
The reverie of youth
Taught us to fly, again
Running through a field of time
Hand in hand, with dreams in mind
Innocence and love sublime
An abyss to seek and find
I was the first to fall
I knew I had it all, again
And yet just like a dream
I knew I had to wake, again
Running through a field of time
Hand in hand, with dreams in mind
Innocence and love sublime
An abyss to seek and find
Under an endless sky
Night passed us by
Again
Reverie of youth
Has passed us by
Again
Running through a field of time
Hand in hand, with dreams in mind
Innocence and love sublime
An abyss to seek and find
Toxic Web - Toxic Web
Pretty eyes
By the fire light
In a veil of smoke
They won't tell me lies
Bite your lip
Bite your tongue
Find a spine if you know one
In the toxic web
Where's your head
Where's the truth
All the words you have spoken
Like a fire burnin'
They fall around on the floor
Where you stumble upon them
I stumble upon them
I act like a fool around you
So I gave up
And look at you without me
Close enough
In my own mind
I make impulsive love
Come get it,
Or turn away this time,
In the end it's all fine
Black laced eyes
Filled with tears can't control them
Bite your lip
Bite your tongue
Find a spine if you know one
In the toxic web
Where's your head
Where's the truth
All the words you have spoken
Burnin' in my head
They fall around on the floor
Where you stumble upon them
I stumble upon them
Hot coals I walk on
Once again friend,
Once again fire
Once again
Again
Again
THAL - Tombs
Live at the base of a mountain
Ready to blow and release it’s fire
Every sound may be your last
The slightest move crushing every desire
Any man with a face is bound to fall
Another victim of the rules
Water drowns but please don’t thrash around and disturb this peaceful tomb
The solitude is wonderful down here
When it’s time to go I’ll do it without fear
Never place my fortunes in the hands of another man
Escape to the dusty tombs
As the walls they close in
Ready to bow down and ready to tap out
Then I clutch my chest and remember my way
Am I’m born to carry the load?
I made a pact with the devil and it’s time to go
Never again will the moon shine quite the same
Follow me to the fallen angels
Kingdom full of wretched names
Ghost of Altalena - Colossus
Soon you'll be shown
Everything that you've done
Before you've gone
The hell awaits
The gates are opened wide
You can't hide
In the world of truth
There is no youth
And no death
Do you think you're clever?
Do you really think you gonna live forever?
Dronefly - Closer
On planet where I
First encountered your kind
Where fingers beam and ripples burn
For a whisper of sky
Contemplating your eyes
Could you transmit to my world?
Distant beam of cooling light
I’ll bring you closer
I’ll bring you closer
I’ll bring you close
Close
Close
On the planet where I
First encountered your sigh
The sweetest aria
Was I calling your name
As you floated in space
Unaware of my cry?
Distant beam of cooling light
I’ll bring you closer
I’ll bring you closer
I’ll bring you close
So close now
You’ll share my every doubt
So close now
You’ll share my doubt
Ironleaf - Electric God
The seeing eye looking in
always knows where you've been
and wears you like a second skin
Everything you do or say
falls upon the vast array
and never, never fades away
But there will come a time
where only silence will remain
Back in time and back again
looking for a secret sin
you can't deny the electric god
To serve and protect, you must obey
time to serve, time to pray
but never, never chance to stray
But there will come a time
where only silence will remain
Pray to your
Electric God
Pray to your
ELECTRIC!
Pray to your
Electric God
Pray to your
ELECTRIC
Anointed or appointed for
a place of trust amongst the rust
the sea of dead technology
You have the right to speak your mind
to follow your own intelligent design
So shall it be to the end of time
But there will come a time
where only silence will remain
Pray to your
Electric God
Pray to your
ELECTRIC!
Pray to your
Electric God
Pray to your
ELECTRIC GOD!
Cambium - Salton (long version)
As you pass my window
Your sweet sadistic smile
It takes me while I struggle
As starts and fits collide
I may seem to be
Wrapped up tight around your finger
One false move and I'll come undone
Sink your teeth and take a bite
Your essence captures me
I cannot catch myself
I'm sinking in the feeling
Or am I feeling nothing
Although I can't believe
In anything at all
I'm letting go of something
That I've held dear for so long
The ground it shakes below me
A sense of well enough
It sucks the life around me
With selfish empty love
Your essence captures me
I cannot catch myself
I'm sinking in the feeling
Or am I feeling nothing
Although I can't believe
In anything at all
I'm letting go of something
That I've held dear for so long
I may seem to be
Wrapped up tight around your finger
One false move and I'll come undone
Sink your teeth
Future Circuit - Kryptonite
You’re on a quest for satisfaction
Can’t wait to sink my teeth in you
Might cause a chemical reaction
Being here feels like deja vu
Ooh ooh tried and true
Can’t keep my hands off of you
Afternoon delight
You just might be my kryptonite
Ooh ooh You’re wanting more
Like we’ve both been here before
Make love by candlelight
I just might be your kryptonite
The Three Minstrels - Tornado
My old man said
all good things
come with sugar and a touch of spice
What he didn't know was you're no sugar pie
You sure ain't no sugar cream puff pie
Watch out when she takes her breathe
What comes out next you'll both regret
She'll unleash her, her Tornado
A Tornado
She's just a windstorm at night
My little Tornado
I love her
Even when she blows so bad
Aint no other who can
Rectify this man
She be a Tornado
She be a Tornado
Trinity & Triage - Surreal
Something with substance
But zero thought, and zero consequence
And we could move mountains
Even those just underneath our head
The horses are frozen
Waiting for a door to open wide
You have your reasons
But they don’t hold the weight of mine
Break free from the gate
Pound in the soft earth
Leave lanes far behind us
We’ll veer into a left curve
Soar over the wall
Enter into a golden field
Hills we could fly
Surreal
I’ll tell you my secrets
Let your fingers tangle in my hair
Nothing I’ll reject
In the emptiness we share
When eyes are half open
Vision blurs but we’ll see something more
Horses are frozen
Do you sense they’re eager now to soar?
Break free from the gate
Pound in the soft earth
Leave lanes behind us
We’ll veer into a left curve
Soar over the wall
And enter into a golden field
Hills we could fly
Surreal
Roll free the sun
Joyfully mindless
We’ll breathe in the sky
No worries no regrets
Soar over the walls
And wings from a bird, steal
Hills we could fly
Standing on toes
Perfectly still
Mountains made of sky
Could make a fall seem real
Over the hill
V1CTOR - Dark Matter
Under the desert moon,
I took another man's life.
Didn't give a damn if he lived or if he died.
But, I should have known better,
'cause there's always a price to pay.
And now I find myself always running away.
'Cause there's a very dark matter hanging over me.
He didn't need his gold.
Was more than he could spend.
He hid it under the floor,
where he met his bloody end.
And now a god damn spectre,
with a gun called "Death,"
will surely lead me to my very last breath.
'Cause there's a very dark matter hanging over me.
Under the hanging tree,
the Devil's waiting for me.
Under the hanging tree.
Live by the gun, die by the rope
in another man's hand.
You can pray to your god, it won't do no good.
This is your final stand.
Under the hanging tree, the Devil's waiting for me!
Sinistrad - Future State
Feel the land slide
See the rising tide
In a voice that can't be denied
We're all going to die
Can't change the future state
In a world where nothing moves
Teleprompt emotion brings
No real words
Just lips that move
Spinning arms
Tentacles
Wrap around
Kiss it all
Motherly
Your disease
Is warm
Glistening
Shake it loose
Understand
Tears that move
Venomous
Bear your tooth
It’s all
Mine
The lakes are running dry
The hole burned in the sky
Too late to ask why
We're all going to die
Can't fix a twisted mind
Just slip the meds under your tongue
Calculate coordinates
Let’s hit the floor
And start again
Spinning arms
Tentacles
Wrap around
Kiss it all
Motherly
Your disease
Is warm
Glistening
Shake it loose
Understand
Tears that move
Venomous
Bear your tooth
It’s all
Mine
No real words
Just lips that move
No real words
Just lips that move
No real words
Just lips that move
No real words
Just lips that move
Come on
Let’s fix ourselves
The finders keep it all
And bring it straight to hell
Where you will find me smiling
Before After Again - These Are Not Men
Borderline psychopathic
Introverted retrospect
Put your face on megalomaniac
Narcissistic carnivore
These are not men
These are not men
Warships floating by
Automatic weapons out
Raise your hands and touch the sky
Never seen anything quite like this
In history
Let’s just go and live it out
Bottoms out and pencils drop
Watch your back it's all a front
Generation genocide
I'll be here standing down
Smiling while we watch you die
Rotting corpses coat the ground
These are not men
These are not men
A road to fortune fame
Don’t need your medicine
Its something wonderful as we incinerate
Surrounded maddened men
Destroying everything
I'd rather sit around
And watch it burn right down
A road to fortune fame
Don’t need your medicine
Its something wonderful as we incinerate
Surrounded maddened men
Destroying everything
I'd rather sit around
And watch it burn right down
Borderline psychopathic
Introverted retrospect
Put your face on megalomaniac
Narcissistic carnivore
These are not men
These are not men
