Slow Moving Tragedy

Nobody knows about it
Nobody cares
Living in a bubble check back in twenty years
Year after year we're getting closer to the brink
Slow destruction bred complacency
This all happened before but understanding history's a bore
The stakes are different now it's life or death
Modernity has suffocated the simple fucking trade
Of mild inconvenience for a change
Before it all goes away will we do anything?
Are we too blind to see slow moving tragedy?
Defiant we ignore the coming casualty of war
By ignoring all the cries of better men
Alliances divide us but not everything is binary
We've all got the same barrel in our mouth
A gun we loaded
Before it all goes away will we do anything?
Are we too blind to see slow moving tragedy?
Before we head to the cliff will we be more than useless?
We are alive and it is our time now
What is the motive to lie?
Where does the money hide?
Before it all goes away will we do anything?
Are we too blind to see slow moving tragedy?
Before we head to the cliff will we be more than useless?
We are alive and it is our time
We are alive and it is our time now

Fail to Gain

A sad desperation
No saving it from myself
You cling to religion
Denying that you're in hell
All of the bodies that walk through the day
They live in the past as they lie in their grave
Open the book memorize what they say
Nothing will save you you'll never be saved
Nothing will save you you'll never be saved
Follow
Not another single day
I know
We're living in deceit
Reap everything that you have sown
This is the penalty you'll choke on your destiny
Grounded in morals define your beliefs
Failing to practice the love that you preach
Fearing change
Turn a blind eye
Tear out the pages and block from your mind
Tear out the pages and block from your mind
Follow
Not another single day
I know
We're living in deceit
Reap everything that you have sown
This is the penalty you'll choke on your destiny
Right my sight
Right my sight
Follow
Not another single day
I know
We're living in deceit
Reap everything that you have sown
This is the penalty you'll choke on your destiny
Choke on it
Reap everything that you have sown
This is the penalty you'll choke on your destiny
Choke on your destiny

Floor is Lava

Take a seat and take another drink
Easier to kill my brain than really try to think
I'm understimulated, but lazy so I do this
Many goals
Still plenty of time
Drowning in my minutes
I'm wasting mine
It's not complicated
It's self sabotage
Got to escape myself
It's all I know
But it's a joke
So goddamn unacceptable
Bullet in my head
I don't want to be dead
I want the biggest burden I can bear
No more wasting time

Silver Spoon

I'm burning down all the bridges that were doomed from the start
So excuse my indifference while I tear you apart
System archaic
Foundation a joke
Still building on what's broke
I got something to lose
Go ahead and take it from me
Born with a silver spoon
There's no equality
I got something to lose
Go ahead and take it from me
Born with a silver spoon
There's no equality
Take a lesson from history
And put up your guard
'Cause the man on the gold throne
Don't give a fuck who you are
The free market freedom you think still exists
Is drowned by these unchecked capitalists
Can't escape when
Can't escape when
You give them everything
I got something to lose
Go ahead and take it from me
Born with a silver spoon
There's no equality
I got something to lose
Go ahead and take it from me
Born with a silver spoon
There's no equality
Don't fall into deep pockets where the game is rigged
Look at the scoreboard baby
And see who really wins
Why can't you see that progress is not a dirty word?
Irreverent, short sighted
There's always more to learn
There's always more to learn
I got something to lose
Go ahead and take it from me
Born with a silver spoon
There's no equality
I got something to lose
Go ahead and take it from me
Born with a silver spoon
There's no equality
I got something to lose
Go ahead and take it from me
Born with a silver spoon
There's no equality

Sit behind your keyboard and spread some shit
You think you're fucking god
Think you know it all til you're pressed an inch
And crumble like a fraud
We're so quick to pull the trigger
So quick to assume the worst
Life won't get any better standing in the dirt
A virus spread with a mouse click
You consume instead of think
Ignorance cloaked in cynicism
You're not fooling me
We're so quick to pull the trigger
So quick to assume the worst
Life won't get any better standing in the dirt
How does a tree with one root grow?
Can a single spark make the world glow?
Your bubble's safe for now
But soon enough the air will all run out
It's not about changing your side
It's about changing perspective
Don't take your thought for granted
Try and open up your mind

Take Over
03:56
|

How many times can the cycle repeat before you face it?
Words are twisted in knots
Do you even believe the same thing anymore?
Dig in your heels
This fight is just beginning
Program embedded on the day they're born
Hit like a ton of bricks
No match for ignorance
What good's an answer when you lose control?
(Shut it off I'm taking over)
Take it all
Take all the reason in the world
I don't know
If we will ever see the change
Stone cold sober
Searching for a meaning we can find
One world over
Do they believe the same lies?
Swallow your pride
You're gold in their eyes
Melted and molded time after time
False hope through exploitation
Salvation cherry picked
Ignore what doesn't apply
Raising doubt is just the devil lurking inside
Take it all
Take all the reason in the world
I don't know
If we will ever see the change
Stone cold sober
Searching for a meaning we can find
One world over
Do they believe the same lies?
Our insignificance is what makes this precious time
Won't have all of the answers
But I can live my life
Wasting time
Simple lives
Easier when you live forever
Facing death or ignoring it
Accept your fate
No one is safe from time
Take it all
Take all the reason in the world
I don't know
If we will ever see the change
Stone cold sober
Searching for a meaning we can find
One world over
Do they believe the same lies?
Do they believe the same lies?
