1. LEADING THE BLIND

Spare the air, 
Your empty words and deeds 
Spare those who place their faith 
In your every move 
Life resonates 
Through the way you speak 
Perceive 
How it all runs you 
Through 

My word is all I have 
Unbroken 

Deceived 
Trust not 
What you see 

Do not despair 
Deny the life they lead 
Blame those who ride the line 
With their every breath 
We elevate 
As we herd the weak 
Believe 
That truth will see you 
Through 

Two hands to stay the storm 
Asylum 

Deceived  
Trust not  
What you see 

Will you dare 
To rectify your needs 
Ignore the pain that burns 
With your every move 
Lead the blind 
Til the bitter end 
Bereaved 
I will wait for 
You
 

2. FROM DOWN HERE

Don’t be so disappointed 
That I won’t pacify 
I won’t be compensating 
And I won’t satisfy 

Give me release 
Today 
Let me retort 
My way 
Get on your knees 
And stay 
Answer me, please
When I say 

Will you hesitate 
To pull the blade 
Out of your chest 
Or will someone else 
Do it for you 

Save me 
Take me 
Far away from here 
Let me breathe the air 
On the other side 

We are commiserating 
And I won’t calcify 
Your fate has been devised 
Don’t you wonder why 

I am complete 
today 
Let me escape 
My way 
If you want me 
Then stay 
Lend me an ear 
When I say 

Save me
Take me
Far away from here
Let me breathe the air... 

3. IMPOSING YOUR WILL

All the time I see the games you play and  
I despise it  
How long can I be the one to blame and  
I allow it  
Just a ruse that's starting to decay  
It's wearing thin now  
Go and act like the hero of the day  
Well go take your bow  

Lost, inside of your head  
Deception lies before me 
The cost, consumed by your debt  
A web of lies destroys me 

Use the guilt until you get your way 
It all falls on me  
It's not as noble as you'd like to think  
You're just as guilty  
Turn a blind eye to the good in me  
As you forget  
And all of the good we knew we ever had 
Is just a regret  

Lost, inside of your head  
Deception lies before me 
The cost, consumed by your debt  
A web of lies destroys me 

Lost, inside of your head  
Deception lies before me 
The cost, consumed by your debt  
A web of lies destroys me 

Lost, inside of your head  
Deception lies before me  
The cost, consumed by your debt  
A web of lies destroys me 

4. WITNESS ME

Indelible 
It’s such a lovely day 
Another coward hiding from their fate again 
Controllable 
I like to think you are 
Dressed in a righteous sense of dead self dignity 

It’s nice to meet you
It’s nice to need you 

Deniable 
Come take your accolades 
We’ll burn the sky for your grand Pyrrhic victory 
Reliable 
Chrome veins run thick with grease 
Ride eternal through a stark choking fantasy 

Waste not 
Lest you forget yourself 
Bleed black 
Drowning in gasoline 
Think fast 
Before you resent yourself 
For leaning back 
In mediocrity 

Fire at will! 
I let me down

Indispensable 
That’s what they say I am 
What you want the most when shit hits the fan 
Incomprehensible 
Or reprehensible 
I can’t remember just which of those I am 

WITNESS! 

Fire at will
I let me down

You let me
