When I first saw your gallery I liked the ones of ladies Then you began to hang up me You studied to portray me In ice and greens And old blue jeans And naked in the roses Then you got into funny scenes That all your work discloses "Lady, don't love me now, I am dead I am a saint, turn down your bed I have no heart," that's what you said You said, "I can be cruel But let me be gentle with you" Somewhere in a magazine I found a page about you I see that now it's Josephine Who cannot be without you I keep your housе in fit repair I dust the portraits daily Your mail comes hеre from everywhere The writing looks like ladies' "Lady, please love me now, I am dead I am a saint, turn down your bed I have no heart," that's what you said You said, "I can be cruel But let me be gentle with you" I gave you all my pretty years Then we began to weather And I was left to winter here While you went west for pleasure And now you're flying back this way Like some lost homing pigeon They've monitored your brain, you say And changed you with religion "Lady, please love me now, I was dead I am no saint, turn down your bed Lady, I have no heart," that's what you said "Well, I can be cruel But let me be gentle with you" When I first saw your gallery I liked the ones of ladies But now their faces follow me And all their eyes look shady

It doesn't make it any less real Once you feel it Rage with the fire of insight These are the days that Favors the emotional An amplified belief When effective and unbiased I want my eyes to be It might be lost and gone To memory belong It doesn't make it any less real Once you feel it Rage with the fire of insight These are the phantom days Behind the reason Once we nullify intent Ignorance be just When defeatist minds prevail In dreams they slip away Yet this feeling lingers on It doesn't make it any less real Once you feel it Rage with the fire of insight These are the phantom days What remains of indecision Determined by resolve Vicariously through others I see what I can be It might be lost and gone To memory belong It doesn't make it any less real Once you feel it Rage with the fire of insight These are the phantom days

Much like the tension built between force and will Stray voltage wanders from neutral to earth Lest we forget to forgive the signals get crossed These two grounded objects on the opposite side Of right or wrong where empathy was once Is not the end - this is the reasoning I call you out So take it once and for all The weight of the world on you I call you out to claim neutrality We failed our own Reality on reality's terms The less we know The more we forge what suits our single-minded goals It all comes down to this A reverse polarity In opposites we see what unity must be Forever taking down the man-made walls of strife Forever taking them down I call you out So take it once and for all The weight of the world on you I call you out to be accountable today tomorrow I call you out There's nothing like the friction sound The slow burn of prolonged frustation Wearing down the jagged edges To fit within the margins The fires spread throughout the night It must now go down to where it can begin Inside and out I call... I call you out So take it once and for all The weight of the world on you I call you out to claim neutrality I call you out to be accountable today tomorrow

Gentle storm, thundering silence Inferior force, uncontrolled calm Vital unlife, logic, chaos, logic The tone of which his birth ascend The beat that of a heart descend Repeating in the infinite An insight made it clear Order stormed the surface Where chaos set the norm Had there always been balance? ...Surely not Therein lies the beauty It was solid Yet everchanging It was different Yet the same So I starve myself for energy It was solid Yet everchanging It was different Yet the same So I starve myself for energy I starve myself for energy The song around his soul will bend The notes that in this hole will melt Crawl out of science A dreamland if you dare Disorder clawed the boundaries We're ordered to stand clear Was it always different ...Never the same? Therein lies the beauty It was solid Yet everchanging It was different Yet the same So I starve myself for Energy It was solid Yet everchanging It was different Yet the same So I starve myself for energy I starve myself for energy As there were no witnesses There was nothing to be told As nothing could be grasped The story could unfold Superimposed on the elements of anger Fear, anxiety, hate, despair, remorse So break from all that fear hold fast Exposed, now turn to all you lack Let echoes be the answers Return from all the screams Wordless now the last attack So silent it hurts to listen Was it always solid To never change? Therein lies the beauty It was solid Yet everchanging It was different Yet the same So I starve myself for energy It was solid Yet everchanging It was different Yet the same So I starve myself for energy I starve myself for energy

Outsmart the fever And take us farther from The killing life in capsules A life that can't belong If I wake up dead to the world With the helm at my command The reaching out of this Oh, faced tomorrow In the eleventh hour, beckoned closer Now as nightfall sends its grace Oh, cue to enter, the insatiable ideal Slam it shut But the portal pounding lingers What it is? Is time undone? I cannot falter in the security of labor Was I supposed to believe? Where did I sign? Oh, did I miss Oh, the auction? Oh, where, my life? Where did I sign? Did I miss the auction? Went the half mile Wondered when the resolution would come Life became too solid Diluted by the essence of denial Caught in fire's eye Oh, the self and the filter that is I My lip was venom Words formed in my mouth And hid beneath the tongue Never to be, never to be seen Where did I sign? Oh, did I miss Oh, the auction? Oh, where, my life? Where did I sign? Did I miss the auction? Was I supposed to believe? Where did I sign? Oh, did I miss Oh, the auction? Oh, where, my life? Where did I sign? Did I miss the auction? Oh, where, my life? Where did I sign? Oh, did I miss the auction? Where, my life? Where did I sign? Did I miss the auction where my life went by the club

I will not play along With things I find unfair I will not mount defences Against unjust attacks This land was never given We built this on our own Insanity dependent Whether we rise or fall Whether we rise or we fall One for the night One for the uncontrol Hold your feet to the ground To the end of our time For the rest of our lives Hold your head up high To the end of our time For the rest of our lives Secretively I hope That nothing ever comes of this And you are not alone In wanting to come back To a place where it won't matter Just what side you're on As when our lives are branded What's underneath will overcome What's underneath will overcome One for the night One for the uncontrol Hold your feet to the ground To the end of our time For the rest of our lives Hold your head up high To the end of our time For the rest of our lives Now it's time to stand up tall One for the night One for the uncontrol Hold your feet to the ground To the end of our time For the rest of our lives Hold your head up high To the end of our time For the rest of our lives
