Bells are ringing
Siren singing
The world is turning
Time is burning
And I can't save
The people I need to be saved
Feed the demon
Enough to see him
Enough to free him
Then to be him
Lord I can't save
The people I need to be saved
Children we were, grown into shape
The shape grown distorted and warped by the rain
And what are we now, but relics of unlived potential
That drift in the wind

Cabin Fever Talk
03:25

Neck to lynch
One head stuck up too high out from the ditch
Scapegoat witch
A voice stood out from the choir's pitch
Restless are the judges
And all the King's men
And weary are the subjects
Who've built the cages they're locked in
Cabin fever talk getting to me right now
I wanna run until I drop and then I'll crawl out
God is the winner
For making the world's unresolvable problem the probable cause
Playing dead
I'm bare belly in the lion's den
Fight back instead
We're all living under sword and pen
An age old circumstance
The earth shakes as fools dance
And when the walls start to crumble in
They build em up just to start again
Cabin fever talk getting to me right now
I wanna run until I drop and then I'll crawl out
God is the winner
For making the world's unresolvable problem the probable cause

Day as a Ghost
03:44

'How goes it' he said
The thoughts turned in my head
I didn't even know what to say
'Good' or 'just fine'
May have sufficed
Nobody wants the truth anyway
The truth be told
The dawn broke so cold
And the belt it was tight on my neck
But a knock on the door
Interrupted my trance
I loosened the hold with a terrible gasp
To live out a day as a ghost
The edge it was never so close
To live out a day as a ghost
What could it mean that I'm still in this thing?
I'd ask you but nobody knows,
I'd ask you but nobody knows
A world of what ifs
Now stands before me
The burden I'd give
The hole that I'd leave
It feels like the world
Has split at the seams
Schrödinger's demise, am I living a dream?
To live out a day as a ghost
On the precipice of the almost
To live out a day as a ghost
What could it mean that I'm still in this thing?
I'd ask you but nobody knows,
I'd ask you but nobody knows
You can't tell me why
We bear this heavy load
On bloodied bare feet
We walk the thorny road
Your hand in mine
May help me climb
But if I drop like a stone
I might not fall alone..
To live out a day as a ghost
On the precipice of the almost
To live out a day as a ghost
What could it mean that I'm still in this thing?
I'd ask you but nobody knows,
I'd ask you but nobody knows

Immolate
03:08
|
|||
|
Trying not to understand it
It burns to know the truth we're handed
Apathy, a poison bandage
I'll tear it off when I get manic
Would you walk away
And leave the world aflame
Or self immolate?
Count the karmic implications
Sleep with heavy reservations
No one asked to face the question
Born into the great transgression
Would you walk away
And leave the world aflame
Or self immolate?
Seems to be a misunderstanding
That someone else will lead us home
There ain't no scholar, don't wait for Jesus
To right our wrongs
Lyrics by David Bayless

Lucis Caelum
03:53
|

|
The day two rainbows lit the sky
A ray of hope that love survives
The leaves rustle in the wind
To sing goodbye
To sing goodbye
The day gold clouds painted the sky
A place of rest to be released
The day heaven gained a light
You passed away
You passed away
Lyrics by Pippo de Tommaso and David Bayless
