Treading through the waves, barely keeping pace I don't even know where to find my place Sewing seeds of doubt, in one ear and out When the hell does it stop? Murder in the streets, tyrants sending fleets Victims painted red, they're getting in our heads Fabricated tales, make us fight ourselves To push consumer sales, oh the irony Tell me how to reconcile what i see from outside the fold Propaganda weaponized from side to side, or so I'm told There's no faith When your words don't fall in place With any sense of stability Deceived by our eyes and our ears Left alone with ourselves 'Till we disappear They lure you in with insincere Platitudes that feed your fears A prophet and a preacher is that really what you see? Indoctrinate the faithful who you willingly mislead One by one by one they follow Feed the hollow, repeat the cycle again There's no faith When your words don't fall in place With any sense of stability Deceived by our eyes and our ears Left alone with ourselves 'Till we disappear One by one One by one Disappear One by one One by one One by one, they follow One by one, they follow One by one, they follow One by one Losing touch with reality An overwhelming numb So let me be While you're... Broken Shallow hearted Narcissistic Self destructive Paralytic Saprophytic So sadistic Fucking monsters

Oh you wanna grow up a big big star You won't, you'll never make it You've got so much to lose Maybe you should think things through Oh how does it feel to question every move You wanna grow up a big big star You won't, you'll never make it You've got so much to lose Maybe you should think things through Oh how does it feel to question every Question every move! Woah woah woah, wait a minute Let me pull you from your throne I bet you're thinking alright it's fine If they hear me, I'll make it one day soon in time Wooooahhh! I don't like this feeling that is creeping Filled with nagging thoughts inside my mind And I keep saying alright it's fine Pretending I'm one shot shy of the limelight Are you going too fast? You said we'd stop and celebrate Enjoy the spotlight now Look at all that you have made Are you going too fast? You said we'd stop and celebrate Where'd you'd like to go? Or can it ever be obtained? Are you going too fast? We should stop and celebrate Enjoy how far you've come Success is now reality Are you going too fast? Let's stop and celebrate Will this die if I move slow? Whatever, wing it! Fate will settle it all A leap of faith My conscious fall

I don't want to waste away And as the fox lays bleeding on his side Tom Wolf calmly waiting for his hide Hey Mr Fox get ready to die, I've been hunting for days Give me the light from your eyes How did this happen? Rick Fox replied I was walking carefree, when surprise from the side What can I say? I've always been sly I'm your worst nightmare, are you ready to die? I don't want to waste away I want to live another day What could you possible say to make me change my mind? Tom Wolf said while cleaning his canines What if I told you a skulk of my kind, just two clicks west You won't believe your eyes You're telling me there's more? Oh yeah, plenty more! Walk over there your jaw will hit the floor I'll take you up on that, hey what's your name? Rick Fox, you'll never see me again! Tom Wolf wandering through trees Perplexed by the decision he's made Was it two clicks west or east, if he doesn't eat he won't make it another day I'm so lost I can't find anyone What did he say? I think I past that tree, I'm so beat No sign of anything to eat I should've stayed, can still taste him on my teeth I don't want to want to waste away Am I the predator or prey?

Old Frame 03:16

Been feeling pulled to that old frame Buried by broken dreams half made Toxic foundation I have laid Crushing me suffocating It's dark down here Stifling air I pictured myself being rid of this Selfish, destructive existence Constantly putting myself at risk I tried change but nothing comes of it And I know This time I'll pull myself out of the hole Every day I feel so heavy Strangled by anxiety Ripped apart by reality I fight, I try Deeper as the spiral goes A circle filled with exit holes My god how could I feel so cold Alive? Am I alive? Is that the best you got? Are you even trying? You'll never be the man That you wanted to be Give it up Give it up Give it up now Can't you see? We've taken control I pictured myself being rid of this Selfish, destructive existence Constantly putting myself at risk I tried change but nothing comes of it And I know This time I'll pull myself out of the hole
