Take it take it
It's yours, I promise, I swear
Create more waste
And spread it all without a care
Lies
Guarantee uprise
Try as you might
Hide
Fallacies comprised
Of mosquitoes and flies
Break them
Hate them
Capitalize on their fear
Taking away, slowly
All that they hold dear
Make them regret
Ever choosing a side
Suffering from
The poison of national pride
I
Contemplate my time
Wonder if it's a lie
Shy
From all the problems I
Just step out the light
Cry
For malice and sulfide
To burn out the night
Try
To keep face in front of
All these prying eyes
Take
No give and all hate
Taken
Burn
Just for the thrill
All that we built is for nought
Sit right down
Don't look around
Don't make a sound
You're alright now
Standing here on solid ground
I guess you wonder why you're here
Please don't fear my eyes
Look i'm under lots of stress
I begin to fear there's nothing left
I'm sorry but I'm losing hope
I admit I long for rest
Well hear me now
Looks like you got
What you wished for
And it turns out
That nothing changed so how's that feel
I think we better clear the air
Please don't run, or cry
Oh my god the feelings left
A numbness all across my chest
I hope that I can stay awhile
Cus things are looking motionless
Well don't you fret
You'll be around
For quite awhile
You're so burnt out
Just try to muster up a smile
No use to worry anymore
To be quite clear, you died
If this is death then why the fear
If only life could be so clear
I hope that I was not in vain
Remember that it's always near
She said I want you to stay
I hope you don't go
But I want you to know
You're the only hope
To save them from annihilation
Sit right down
Don't look around
Don't make a sound
You're alright now
Standing here on solid ground
No need to wonder why you're here
Just know my hands are tied
Look I know we're at the end
And i'm hoping just to make amends
I think I see that I let down
Everyone from foe to friend

Mosquito Bites

We've
Come so far
Just to feel
Like we are
One of them
Deep inside
My greatest fear
Come alive
Breathe
Suck it in
From the vein
Drenched in sin
To the weak, minded
Lost in fear
You intended all that you dealt
Yet you defend it, with every last breath
We need another horizon
One with some room to tread
But we get the soulless mosquitos
That suck you dry instead
How long is it gonna take
Before you care to learn to break
Away from all the patterns
That already show their age

Gather round
We have plans for some profits that will make you proud
Gonna tear it down and build
Plants facilities, high capacity company towns
Now how you ask
Well I propose yours truly is up to the task
To colonize and bring
All of Nu Horizons into further skies
Capitalist, philosophy
Is ingrained in me
I'm meant to be so much more but
Blinded by greed
It's easy to
Lose sight of me
Hear me out
Maybe I can change it from the inside out
Burn down
All to redeem myself
Now if I may address
Any and all of your questions well please shoot away
Well judging by your silence think we're A OK
Now let's talk funds
You know we'll reap rewards when all is said and done
Oh profits wow, you'll be
Takin it takin it makin bank on it rakin it in for
Years to come
Capitalist, philosophy
Is ingrained in me
I'm meant to be so much more but
Blinded by greed
It's easy to
Lose sight of me
Hear me out
Maybe I can change it from the inside out
Burn down
All to redeem myself
Who's that knocking on the door
We don't take walk in apps no more
Security please come and do your job
And make sure that this boy is gone for good
But I can do almost anything
That you want me to
Ain't no average Joe
And I listened to all your music on
My space transmitter radio, so
Just let me know
I'm looking for work and I'm ready to go
I'm a real team player and I'm down with all the dirty shit
You know I won't complain and all your messes i'll be moppin it, OH
With Joe in tow
Numan had, one more ally for what lay ahead
But with all new beginnings
Something must end
And he left who he loved all alone in her head
I am
Destined to be
One who can change the path of history
You could
Be by my side
However instead you hold on to your pride
If not the solution then we are the problem
I beg you to think back to being at the bottom
And realize it all stems from corporate greed
I must break away hope to set others free
Well I can take you but I really can't make you
Left to me well I never would let you go
Let you go
So instead I guess this is the end
Where we part ways
And I'll never forget you no
Noooooo
And I don't know
If you'll make it out tonight
But I can say
That I tried everything
Ever since
Humanity
Industrialized this was destined to be
We are the plague that's engulfing the earth
Taking and taking and greenwashing words
Lies
Lies

The Papa

Look at me I am the papa
You think you can run but I'm faster
Walking around your carelessness
Thinking that surely you're one who'll be missed
Spreading the fuel for the fire
So you can have all you desire
Instant gratification or
Coming together to weather the storm
Well fuel the fire that burns you
And breathe deep
Sucking in all of the toxins
They seep through your veins and permeate sleep
Laying awake it consumes you
Thinking of all that you've been through
Realize nothing is permanent
All you have is left is fleeting at best
Now who's
Coming to save you
Knowing
All that you do
Burn
All that we've built
All that I know
All that we've killed
Oh how you thought you're a big boi
Showing off all of your big toys
Ripping down everything in your path
Until there's nothing left
Carelessness of surroundings
How bout just leave as you found things
Now that you know the end is near
Don't the answers seem so clear
Now who's
Coming to save you
Knowing
All that you do
Burn
All that we've built
All that I know
All that we've killed
We're in for a rough ride
A self destructing landslide
Humanity will subside
So go on home
Live

I can't believe we got here
Can't you see there's no god near
We're gonna need a plan now
To change our home

I look around
Feel my face
Feel my face
Drift away
Strap me down
Dilate
Dilate
I float
Towards the sound
Dissipate
Dissipate
I am lost
In the boundaries erase
Diastase
Well I can see the light
I'm destined I can't fight it
I can see the light
It flickers in the distance when I close my eyes
Well I, feel hope, in the sky
And I, see them touched, by the light
We are the seed
A nu world
Filled with green
Well I can see the light
I'm destined I can't fight it
I can see the light
It flickers in the distance when I close my eyes
Attention
This is your captain speaking
We're experiencing brief turbulence
But I'll advise you not to let it take away from the
Work that you have
Oh
We have a case of cabin fever, baby take note
Head up, and keep your eye on Joe
Well I could use a little me time
I could blow it up, and make it all feel better
Leave them all to their starlight
Tasks at night
Wine, wine and dine
Boy you better make this spaceship shine
Wine, wine and dine
You know this all is by design
Whoa
Into the great unknown, we go
When we hit the ground, glad you made time
Gonna come in looking like we know much better
Sparkle them, with that shine shine
In the radiant light
I see you before me, followers of the light
You trusted, you came, you deserve
All that's in sight
Well I stand here, before you
The man that is guiding the brain
And I swear neither risk nor your sacrifice
Shall be in vain
We're well on our way now
It'll all be ok now
Prepare to make waves now
We'll sink or we'll sway out
We'll see how this plays out
Just let it all lay out
We'll see how this plays out
Let's see it all play out
Sink or we'll swim are the options
And I don't know
How you're feeling
But I can tell you
I am in a better place
And things look bright
Shine on nu horizons
Just listen to me
Trust that we'll find a better way

Well last September
I never would have thought I'd be so far from home
Can't remember
Anything but growing up poor in the grocery store now
I intend to
Start a new life but I still don't know quite where I'm going
So I plan to keep my eyes open
Until I find out more
Every night, every night, I
Dream my way back home
Looking up, looking up to the stars
Just thinking I'm so alone
Never had much love back there, no
Not from anyone
But I wake on up, I'm right back in that
Godamn grocery store
Mop it mop it, squeaky clean for those that preen
Stop it stop it, this a spacecraft not no time machine
Pop it pop it, found a bottle untouched in the garbage stuffed I
Gulp it gulp it, better watch out bud your boi's fucked up
Oh no
It's been a rough ride
And I'm feeling some way tonight
Can't say everything will be all right
And I'm shaking
Oh baby I'm shaking
My head keeps on pulsing
And my thoughts they are racing
They never wanna leave me alone
I'm nothing more to them than a drone
Why they always use that same tone
Keep on mopping keep on cleaning never stopping that's my demon
Oh, who am I
I'll give a little whistle
I'll give a little smile
Baby I'm shaking
Dancing earth quaking
I wanna be someone
I wanna be famous
Who the fuck do you think are
Thinking that you might a star
Seems that you do not know your place
Keep on failing always trailing never gonna fall in place
No I'll never leave you alone
Know your mind is not in the zone
I've been watching you like a hawk
Better get your shit together know your time won't last forever
Morn I wake up
Head goes pump with halls to clean I
Wash my face up quick
Never late because da boss is mean now
Love to shake up
All of this monotony yet
Still need that paper
So I suck it up and soap that b
Every night, every night, I
Dream my way back home
Looking up, looking up to the stars
Just thinking I'm so alone
Never had much love back there
No
Not from anyone
But I wake on up
I'm right back in that godamn grocery store
Even though it's still a rough ride
You know I love the starlight
Watching watching watching out my window
My window the stars shine so bright
Wait until we land and they'll see
Know that it is destined to be
Gotta take my piece of the pie
Everybody everywhere
Will hear my name and always cheer
Oh, who am I
I'll give a little whistle
I'll give a little smile
Baby I'm shaking
Dancing earth quaking
I wanna be someone
I wanna be famous
Everybody's laughing at you
Know that none of this will come true
We know that you don't have what it takes
Give it up just give it up I told you son to fall in place
People cannot change who they are
Not just anybody's a star
You were born the same way you'll die
Always empty good for nothing how bout do your job or something
With what I I I I go through
You're my my my my go to
With what I I I I go through
You're my my my my go to
With what lies lies lies I told you
In the night night night I hold you
With what I I I I go through
You're my my my my go to
Even with what I I I I go through
I try try try to pull through
With what I I I I go through
You're my my my my go to

Well they heard me out
Now I'm deep inside the brain
Wrestling with inner doubt
Will they feel let down
Or more like I feel myself
And if things don't change
Can I remove myself
Oh this I often contemplate
And if I remain
Is that just more of the same

Try, try to find
Find a way to make it through the night
Haunt, how you haunt
How you haunt my thoughts in darkness or light
Hope, how I hope
To one day atone
All that I've done
All it I own
We're falling
Slowly fading wonder
Leading us asunder
Right before my eyes
Look, look inside
Deep inside my eyes and you'll find
All, all you fear, all you fear is not but shadows at night
Dusk, in the dusk
Lingers your fright
Breaking you down
Taking the light
We're falling
Slowly fading wonder
Leading us asunder
Right before my eyes
So trust me
I can feel my heart break
Breaking into nothing
Tearing at the fabric
Of my life now
I
Look at my heart
Look at my soul
Looking at everything everything oh
Was it for me
Was it for you
Was it for them
I don't know
How
We
Move on
Twisting and turning I feel my heart burning yet
I
Try to
Sleep sound
Lying awake I'm afraid for our fates given
I
Look towards the sun
Look towards the stars
Looking at
Everything we've done so far
Was it for wealth
Was it for fear
Was it for them
I don't know
How
We
Move on
Twisting and turning, I feel my heart burning, yet
I
Try, to
Stay strong
Gravity, gravity, holding it close to me
Oh, oh
How does this end
And I've been looking for a little bit of love tonight
Hoping that it all turns out ok and we fall down alright
I'm still addicted to a certain type of
Lifestyle yes I've always been afflicted
And I'm hoping that one day I'll find some peace of mind
Knowing that I benefited many of my fellow kind
I'm still stuck here the middle
But I hang tight never really quite a quitter
So I
Wonder
How I'll sleep at night
Knowing that
I gave up on you
Well we've been looking for a way to have a better life
Hoping that I've given up my ways to lead us towards the light
Still I
Worry, that it's hard to fully change myself
And I'll always be the same
So I consider what it takes to break the chains
Not for myself but for the others in the race
Can one, previous in power
Be enough to spark without becoming just another
So I
Wonder
How I'll sleep at night
Knowing
I gave up just on you

Wasted everything
If I cant see this through
To true finality well
They took a chance on me
And this I must respect
A good king won't forget
We just don't know exactly
What the future holds quite yet
Walking I'm pacing around
Uncertain if I'm in the right
And I've became the one
To which the rest all look for light
I question my intents
And If they make a difference
Is there really such a thing as
Selflessness without ambition
Will I
Become
The very thing I
Swore to stop
Oh no
And this they all expect
We've all the same intent
I make believe that I am
Not another tyrant
Walking I'm pacing around
Uncertain if I'm in the right
After some time you know
You can begin to lose all sight
I question my intents
And if they make a difference
There is no such fucking thing as
Selflessness without ambition
I look inside
I look inside
The depths
The depths
Of my petulant mind
But mine is the mind
That gathered and pried
All of the lives that were
Destined to die
Well I look towards the light
The stars shining bright
And I question myself
If what I've done is right
I have tried to preserve
Human breath, human life
But the scale of it all
Makes for such complex plights
And I'm trying to so hard
To see truth in it all
This is not who we are, this not who we are
Just a blight on the world causing planets to fall
This is not who we are this is

I woke as from a daydream
High above the clouds
I listened as the wind cried out
It sang of human hubris
Illusions of control
Against a force that can't be
Slowed
And what's found in the riverbed
Speaks to what lies ahead
Everything
Everything
Comes back around in the end
Never really the end
And hopefulness holds us to high aspirations
While emptiness follows corrupt incantations
By governments
Looking out
For corporations
As we
Stand
Watching
I
I tried
To hold on to hope
For this future of ours
This is not who we are
This is just where we're at
This is
