Outlook 01:49
Awaken me Grant sight and vision Force me to finally see what needs to be seen Take me away Burden outweighs Take me away Silent embrace With this outlook My life is fading I can't maintain this constant wasting away Take me Like sand on the beach I wait for waves come to wash me away Come wash me away

Jumper 08:31
Always craving sleep Weak weary there's no hope for me I am missing all sense of direction In this world I fear to call home We have searched the depths Returned with empty hands No one here is free Victims of Victims of conformity Closed eyes, Closed minds Dark skies loom, rain follows, always follows No one here is free Forced to be Were all victims Finally beginning to see We've spread incurable disease Cancer of the earth Pollutants poison the seas Life escapes me Winds they take me Neither flesh nor dirt are immune Life escapes me Winds they take me Dead planet no resources left to consume Drowning in our sorrows how Could we let the light burn out Buried in stillborn dreams And their voices scream Who do I ask for help? The burden is my own Buried in these stillborn dreams And I’m not strong enough to bear the weight No not in this state Staring at the sky praying with mouths agape With lack of consciousness we’re drowning in the rain Apathy infests our clogged arteries There's no way to stop it we’ve spread incurable disease They say we can break these chains and we can change our ways But fuck the cure if there's no profit Neither flesh nor dirt immune to this dying planet, no resource to consume We’ve lost sight of our potential we must reach new heights Clean this slate Pray for rain Pray for rain Watch the sun light our own mistakes Pray for rain Ask ourselves if we deserve to burn in our own wake Take me away Silent embrace Mother of mercy Father of death Give my soul courage Give my head rest Mother of mercy Father of death Prayers become product of our unrest As they manifest into nothingness Accepting the inevitability that I can never reach this reverie My final days have dawned on me I've searched to the depths of solace But returned with empty hands The one time I caught a glimpse was to end this instance And even if I ascended to the highest of heights, Id still be perched upon an unstable precipice Staring down at the darkest of waters In life we wait to fall or we leap

Myriad 09:18
Void Awaken here into the abyss So this is the end Or is this the beginning Am I dead or just drifting A world without form Darkness upon the face of the deep Am I dead or fast asleep An empty place for my head to swim Born in darkness now the light shines dim A light comes A light comes To separate the shadows and create contrast A duality to everlast Now i'm alive in everything I once was lost I was imprisoned It's too late i've made my decision All is now subject to revision Land and sea undergo collision Raise the mountains up to the sky Shine a light upon the world Now I'm alive and in everything Im alive, Im alive, now I'm alive in everything Plant the seed, watch the roots spread into what was nothing And grow into everything Thoughts in motion, mosaic ocean This myriad, omnipresent All alone but you can find me within everything Watch me build with no one to destroy The isolated architect i’ve become Finally set free As the sun sets on the first day Life spreads a new Spreads a new I will find hope I feel no fear Interconnect all Perfect this globe Spinning this sphere Interconnect Recreate Overcome I will find hope I feel no fear Constructing so long I've been here for years Plant the seed watch the roots spread into what's now everything Grow feel my veins Alternating space Unify Thoughts in motion, mosaic ocean Flow within me I can't I can't breathe I can't I can't see Yet I'm part of everything Now I'm king to reign Left alone the world I must create

Light 04:41
Time moves oh so slow Formation so beautiful become so dull No home, No role, No pride, No shame No chance to grow. Waiting so long just to see the sun rise Only to Have no one to share this light Share this light Right in front of my own eyes What I've witnessed all through time Always searching for someone to appear Please won’t you take all my pain and despair Nothing to love and there's nothing to fear This is my sorrow No flame bright enough Waiting so long just to see the sun rise only to have no one to share this light

Shapeshifter 08:27
Against all odds I begin to design Withholding the vision I am the perfect mind An unknown purpose An unknown fate Creation, what will become of me I have given you the world Come take a part of my soul I prod and i pull in each direction Smooth out the skin and create shoulders of heaven With eyelids on hinges I breathe you life as my blessing Each curve perfect symmetry, creation to live infinitely Perfection, at your sight I go blind New angels soon to take flight Soon to take flight Gifted with life I've been waiting oh so long for someone to Live and breathe like me I've been blind can't see I'm a part of everything I've been longing for company When will we find truth in our own pursuit Always searching for what could be Realize it's never ending Created one In the same I breathe to you life, in hopes that you sustain Can we sustain? I must maintain Explore all I create Were all connected in the same pursuit Searching for serenity and truth We're all simply searching for our wounds to stop hurting Love Love I hear them cry in fear it's not enough Explore, Conquer Let nothing in your way Leave nothing in your way Conquer all creation. Explore, conquer Must sustain Explore, Conquer Explore, we must sustain Reshape to survive, the plastic of mind New flowers expanding, a lotus blooms in time An unknown purpose An unknown fate Creation what will become of me I'm behind your eyes Im what you can't see You're just a spec in space Lost in time Now you are forever mine When will we find truth in our own pursuit Always searching for what could be Realize it's never ending Every moment such a blessing Gods fingers are never resting

Detritus 08:25
We've surpassed all limitation know where do we go I've created the world yet left it overgrown The beauty, perfection (they're lost no direction) And I long and long and long for this world once my home It's in the palm of your hands Explore the vast world No pain left to endure Endless landscape to watch you enjoy Always seeking salvation But I'm not in sight They see no point in creation Angels fall without desire for flight My doubt becomes paralyzing This earth a rooted grip on me Branch out And Learn to grow in harmony Deep down Beyond this poisoned dream Branch out There's beauty all around Deep down You're too ignorant to see I've lived a long time, seen with supernal sight But through this infinite wisdom, optimism I feel uncertainty Age and grow old Find there is no hope There is no hope Age and grow old Frail and decompose Break bones Find the heavens In every mountain In every atom Find the heaven Its behind your eyes Behind your eyes Why am I unseen I'm alive in Why am I unseen I'm alive in Everything Im alive Bite on the hand that feeds you Write your name in the sand, washed away I will become known Try to rebuild from brick and stone I have built the heavens You have all rejected Rejected Age your skin sand, flies embody your corpse, with the growth from these roots you frail and decompose Age Age and grow old Bend and break your bones There's nowhere to go There's nowhere to grow Where do we grow There's nowhere to grow

Raindance 01:41
Gave you everything to offer found you wasting away Cancer of the earth you'll know my misery Sorrows unbound Let them all drown We progress till there's nothing but infinite sound No sense in surviving my endless plague of mind Destroyer of all but I remain divine Fuck

Downpour 07:44
This wasted wasteland It comes to an end I'll transcend Just pretend We begin again These towers are crumbling fast Blank landscape, wasted wasteland Degrading, reforming everything into nothing I've stripped away pride and hate Now left with infinite space Heard you pray for rain (I gave you everything) Wash you all away (drowning impotency) They've strung the rope that burns their goddamn throats There is no hope for my broken soul Silent embracing my fate I'm so hollow There is no hope for broken souls Close my eyes and breathe for eternity Dream, of somber sleep Silent, speechless I won't speak Constant drifting Just breathe My doubt has become reality Ripping out my roots I remain hollow here my skin it turns to sand purpose still unclear Come wash me away In sorrow have I found peace, the silence the ocean the empty within me There is no hope for my broken soul This masquerade I watch my face degrade Open my ears there is nothing to hear I close my eyes, drifting to disappear Disappear I am here to remain Push pins in my eyes, bleed my brain I could not maintain Deteriorate, evaporate, dissociate from my bone Conductor of the tides, my final symphony Lungs full of water, youll love the deep blue sea Constant drifting I can't escape the end Branch out, sever the roots from this wasted wasteland Close my eyes and sleep For eternity Dream of somber sleep Silent, speechless, I won't speak Screaming into the air, there is nothing for me here I’ve made my peace, I close my eyes, I'll see you on the other side Samsara
