No Absolution - Lost Society

It's like an intuition, or a feeling in the air An intangible impression that's always everywhere You bit into the apple, laid down your sword and shield (Untie! A little bit dies, a little each time, the medicine smiles) Then spun round like a gyre in the unified field (Inside, your elegant guide, an arrow in flight, a million miles) I remember feeling the opposite of falling (Into that spot, where we untie every knot) Spinning past the ceiling, absolution calling Are you there, or not? It's an open invitation, come see the sights of sages We've been a pride of lions, so afraid to leave our cages Don't fret over the pieces that smolder in the sun (Untie! A little bit dies, a little each time, the medicine smiles) Cause nothing can be broken when everything is one (Inside, your elegant guide, an arrow in flight, a million miles) I remember feeling the opposite of falling (Into that spot, where we untie every knot) Spinning past the ceiling, absolution calling Are you there, or not? I remember feeling the opposite of falling (Into that spot, where we untie every knot) Spinning past the ceiling, absolution calling Are you there, or not? You bit into the apple, laid down your sword and shield (Untie! A little bit dies, a little each time, the medicine smiles) Then spun round like a gyre in the unified field (Inside, your elegant guide, an arrow in flight, a million miles) I remember feeling the opposite of falling (Into that spot, where we untie every knot) Spinning past the ceiling, absolution calling Are you there, or not? I remember feeling the opposite of falling (Into that spot, where we untie every knot) Spinning past the ceiling, absolution calling Are you there, or not?

It's becoming obvious that you're losing your mind While your inabilities leave you falling behind I think that you could think without And breathe without me if you were on your own Or would you duplicate all the things that you've been shown The path that you lead has been paved with greed And actions condemning your soul And while you suffocate on every breath you take I align against you I'm everything you'll never know The sight of it is obvious as it's blinding my eyes While your insecurities leave you waiting in line I think that you could think without And breathe without me if you were on your own Or would your replicate all the things that you've been shown And while you suffocate on every breath you take The actual meaning is lost And while you suffocate on every breath you take I align against you I'm everything you'll never know I... I won't do what you tell me I... I won't be what you say I... Hate the moments you stole me Take them away You... Aren't there when I need you You... Don't hear what I say You... Every breath that you take You suffocate

Take the words i say And you hold them against me That's why i feel like i face this world alone As i'm held in this place Hurts much more when i blame you And still i feel like i have to hate the world I've given you all i was willing to show Despite everything you believe And while i'm pondering why You still pierce through my mind You thought you'd taken me But you never got the best of me Blankness on my face Reveals more than i want to The more i think that i've learned the less i know In this bed that i've made 'Cause the world is against me The more i hide what i feel the more it shows I've given you all i was willing to show Despite everything you believe And while i'm pondering why You still pierce through my mind You thought you'd taken me But you never got the best of me I feel Alone Alone Take the words i say And you hold them against me The more i think that i've learned the less i know I figured out all that i wanted to know Despite everything you believe And while i'm pondering why You still pierce through my mind You thought you'd taken me But you never got the best of me I'm wondering why You're still here in my mind I thought you'd taken me But you never got the best of me

I'm losing Failing Things are never what they seem I'm feeling Hating Watching the way you deceive It's hard to draw the line between Your lies and what I should believe I need this It's hard to draw the line between The truth and what you said to me It's needless You're slipping Fading But now how you perceive Creating And evading The lies that are altering me It's hard to draw the line between Your lies and what I should believe I need this It's hard to draw the line between The truth and what you said to me It's needless And for all I know You've deceived me all along Because I don't Know you I don't know you Believe me The longer it goes and the farther I take you Deceive me Still you abuse me and make me so hateful Believe me I'm lying to you Deceive me I opened my mind and I tried But I couldn't buy into your lies Lies It's hard to draw the line between Your lies and what I should believe I need this It's hard to draw the line between The truth and what you said to me It's needless And for all you know I've deceived you all along For all you put me through I had to It's hard to draw the line between Your lies and what I should believe I need this It's hard to draw the line between The truth and what you said to me It's needless

Where does the border lie Separating this life from the next It's in the angels cries Where you find all the lies to contest (release) I try but I can't breathe Unconscious thoughts I see are suffocating me (release) This pain is all I know And while it eats me away I just can't let it go It's been so long I've known that something wrong has grown inside you Has right been wrong Because I'm left here just like you Devil in disguise He deceives as we try to relate 'Cause in our tortured minds Are the prisons that we can't escape (release) I try but I can't breathe Unconscious thoughts I see are suffocating me (release) This pain is all I know And while it eats me away I just can't let it go All hope is gone Because my indiscretions can't deny you My life is wronged By damage only you can do I walk the line That somebody has made for me The sands of time Still shift beneath my feet I've been awaiting a sign That somebody will rescue me I'll glorify Anybody that sets me free It's been so long I've known that something wrong has grown inside you Has right been wrong Because I'm left here like you All hope is gone Because my indiscretions can't deny you My life is wronged By damage only you can do

Though it's not what it seems, it still pleases me to see you fall Because I know that you won't learn a thing through it all You'll deny you can't find peace of mind anymore Until you feel nothing at all Another self-indulgent tirade meant to impress me So egotistical and vain, so sad it's depressing So what is the purpose behind the way you've glorified your existence Still, I can't help but watch the wave you've unleashed collapse as it kills you You're diluting yourself again I obsess over things you've said But over and over again A part of you dies Though it's not what it seems, it still pleases me to see you fall Because I know that you won't learn a thing through it all You'll deny you can't find peace of mind anymore Until you feel nothing at all You feel nothing at all Another self-destructive statement meant to upset me You're optimistic or insane, either way you're obsessing So what is the purpose behind the way you've minimized my existence Still, I can't help but watch the wave you've unleashed collapse as it kills me You're diluting yourself again I obsess over things you've said But over and over again A part of you dies Though it's not what it seems, it still pleases me to see you fall Because I know that you won't learn a thing through it all You'll deny you can't find peace of mind anymore Until you feel nothing at all You feel nothing at all

Think about it. Think about it. Think about it. Think! Imagine if I said I sometimes need you I need you to this day Imagine if I said I sometimes hear you call my name Imagine if I said I still could love you Imagine what you'd say Imagine if I said I sometimes still can see your face Think about all the things we shared Think about all the times we cared When all of your hopes have come and gone Think about me and I'll be there Think about it. Think about it. Think about it. There's something in the air that feels like winter The kind we used to know Yesterday can seem like such a long, long time ago Who could ever count the miles between us? But now I know it's true Imagine if I said that all my dreams are dreams of you Think about all the things we shared Think about all the times we cared When all of your dreams have come and gone Think about me and I'll be there Think about images we've drawn Think about all those empty songs Whenever you're sure that I won't dare Think about me and I'll be gone Think about it. Think about it. Think about it. It took me a long, long time to learn That love is a thing you have to earn I finally realized it's true I just can't make it without you Think about all the things we shared Think about all the times we cared When all of your dreams have come and gone Think about me and I'll be there Think about images we've drawn Think about all those empty songs Whenver you're sure that I won't dare Think about me and I'll be gone Think about it.
