Evergreen

toiling away for the things that we crave
do we even stop to wonder what gets taken to the grave
when the needs are met but the wants compound
when the needs are met but the wants compound
so tell me would you stick around and watch me drown?
to capture now, the change foreseen
reversing paths, to evergreen
a change of pace could soon reveal
familiar faces, once concealed
give me a reason to do away with the wistful visions
and find a way out of this horrid mental prison
the old delight is for us to find
that all recurring joy is pain refined
it’s pain refined
erase the pain
but it’s all the same
to capture now, the change foreseen
reversing paths, to evergreen
a change of pace could soon reveal
familiar faces, once concealed
while the pain is necessary, the suffering ain’t mandatory
to capture now, the change foreseen
reversing paths, to evergreen
a change of pace could soon reveal
familiar faces, once concealed

No Exit

Cuz it’s just paper in the end
We’re all still stuck here playing pretend
Cuz it’s not worth it in the end
We’re all so far from feeling content
I thought our steps would always rhyme
Now the only steps i hear are mine
Were we supposed to have a plan?
I could be wrong but it all depends
Cuz i have given up today
Since there is nothing left to say
The weight i’ve placed upon my head
Is way too much for me to take
So would you drown or stay afloat with me?
I can’t be sure, your words they lack certainty
Worth gauged by remuneration, not by our aspirations
We’re misled and unaware
It’s so unfair but no one cares
Good riddance, i hope this isn’t what it’s come to be
Cuz it’s so hard
Well if someday you’d find that i’m lost along the way
Please just take this as a promise that i’ll be ok
Cuz it’s so hard to find the exit

Old Friend

old friend of mine, it seems we’ve lost that race against time
old friend of mine, it’s a shame i never knew if you’re doing fine
the way a stranger feels so familiar
it’s such a shame but who’s to blame?
when the job takes more than it gives away
that’s when i struggle to decide if there is any other way
but the mind is fickle in the game it plays
did the needless second guessing, now i’m running late
then i wonder if the sentiments are even the same
am i worth your time or am i just another name
well then, whose call is it to make?
we’ve got to make this clear so i can stop feeling this way
and as the famous saying goes:
make new friends but keep the old
cuz those are silver and these are gold
those are silver and these are gold
old friend of mine, it seems we’ve lost that race against time
old friend of mine, it’s a shame i never knew if you’re doing fine
the way a stranger feels so familiar
it’s such a shame but who’s to blame?
it’s sad to know, that i don’t mean as much to you like i did

Hypocrisy

hypocrisy thrives in the darkness
i apologise, there is no voice for the voiceless
and there’ll never be
hypocrisy thrives in the darkness
i apologise, there is no voice for the voiceless
it baffles me
the law is harsh but it is the law
claims the hypocrite who bends them all
enough’s enough we’ll hear the people say
this climate of fear i’m sure will never make them sway
it’s too late cuz everyone’s gone it alone
it's too late now, it's too late now
hypocrisy thrives in the darkness
i apologise, there is no voice for the voiceless
and there’ll never be
hypocrisy thrives in the darkness
i apologise, there is no voice for the voiceless
it baffles me
the promises made amid the chatter
divert their eyes from the things that matter
refuse the goodwill and don’t make a deal,
take back control of the power that they steal
it’s too late cuz everyone’s gone it alone
it's too late now, it's too late now
hypocrisy thrives in the darkness
i apologise, there is no voice for the voiceless
and there’ll never be
hypocrisy thrives in the darkness
i apologise, there is no voice for the voiceless
it baffles me
knowing keeps us free
hypocrisy thrives in the darkness
i apologise, there is no voice for the voiceless
and there’ll never be
hypocrisy thrives in the darkness
i apologise, there is no voice for the voiceless
it baffles me

Harbinger

swing out into the open
there’s so much i haven’t got the chance to see
swing out into the open
still a long long way from where i want to be
we stood idly by, pleading for this not to die
but i tried; well, i tried
cautious when i speak
i struggle to figure what this achieves
obliged to justify
every honest opinion of mine
my mind is a garden where nothing will ever bloom
harbinger of everything that’s bound to be doomed
maybe it’s the worst of me that’s bringing out the worst in you
if the worst of me brings out the worst in you
does the problem lie with me or is it amplified by you?
my mind is a garden where nothing will ever bloom
harbinger of everything that’s bound to be doomed
nothing will ever bloom
cuz everything is doomed
(my mind's a garden that'll never bloom
cuz everything is bound to doomed)

Misunderstood

a trustful heart that never does what it should
lost in the realm of the misunderstood
i find it lurking around in the thoughts that follow closely behind
a trustful heart that never does what it should
lost in the realm of the misunderstood
it treads the thin line of those who do and do not understand
it’s no lie that it’s a cruel world out there
friends will stab you in the back and then pretend to care
harsh reality, zero integrity
all i am in the crowd is just a restless face
there is no form of escape from this unsolvable maze
my ambitions lack clarity in this haze
we’re all just puppets in this sickening game
i think i sold my soul to the minimum wage
a trustful heart that never does what it should
lost in the realm of the misunderstood
i find it lurking around in the thoughts that follow closely behind
a trustful heart that never does what it should
lost in the realm of the misunderstood
it treads the thin line of those who do and do not understand
tear away this mask of flesh and bone
there’s so much more to me that you should know
