Scrutiny

Running away from scrutiny
Is this how life is supposed to be?
Trip and fall, fall to the floor
Pushing away all I can’t ignore
Street lights that remind me
The choking grip of history
Running away from scrutiny
Is this how life is supposed to be?
Retreat and stay off the streets
A nation on the edge of defeat
Hold it steady
Wallowing is a luxury
In an age of hostility
A dream that is long past its peak
Hope I’m ready
For accepting reality
Is this gaze coming for me?
Planning my exit strategy
Trying to escape the
Charged air and shared despair
Running away from scrutiny
Is this how life is supposed to be?
Running away running away
Running away from scrutiny

Crown Jewel

Shake the bounty from the bags
Like a dog with no tail to wag
We’re all coming up fruitless
Relish the spectacles and
Burning, burning at both ends
til embers fly away to a yawning abyss
They’ve got you tied to their strings
You’re fighting in their ring.
Break your posture
No matter the worries you foster
Having nothing left to prove
that’ll be the crown jewel
We’re all played as the damned fools
Should strive to be less cruel
Throw this technique away
Savor the seconds and
We’re not counting the days
Clear smoke from the haze
They’ve got you tied to their strings
You’re fighting in their ring.
Break your posture
No matter the worries you foster
Sat atop a pedestal
the point of view is so critical
Was it worth all the acclaim?
There’s no way to win their game
Break your posture, no matter the worries you foster.

Sanctimony
03:13
|

You’re crying out, broke on hope
Under the microscope
A melodramatic leech
Siphoning the potion
Promoting through commotion
Constant fuckery
Too much racket reverberates in the halls
Nobody knows, nobody knows it all
All this sanctimony without the effort
Posing pure, you're so self-assured!
Looking into the clouded mirror
Once the fog clears, not so superior!
Extended idle chatter
Restless hearts are battered
Do we want something better?
Walk on water, all the while
We should smash the crystal ball
Let it go, let it fall
Let it go, let it fall
Let it go, let it fall
Too much racket reverberates in the halls
Nobody knows, nobody knows it all
All this sanctimony without the effort
Posing pure, you're so self-assured!
Looking into the clouded mirror
Once the fog clears, not so superior!
I was once
Just like you.
Make your move
Project your mood.
Someday soon
End this contest.
Litmus test
Put it to rest!
All this sanctimony without the effort
Posing pure, you're so self-assured!
Looking into the clouded mirror
Once the fog clears, you're not so superior!

Lay it All Down

Lay it all down
I hear the shouts of the crowd echo all around
So proud, so proud.
I need to lay it all down
Noisy clouds are in the way
Trying to keep them at bay
That secondhand that beats you
In the rat race every single day
Lay it all down
I hear the shouts of the crowd echo all around
So proud, so proud.
I need to lay it all down
Untamed thoughts dart in the way
Looming over my name
What was will never be the same
You sink as it consumes you
So, run away away away!!
Lay it all down
I hear the shouts of the crowd echo all around
So proud, so proud.
I need to lay it all down
