Confrontation
We're in an age of change The tunnel's light is near And all you think about Is vacuous selfish fear Time to react Now that their backs are turned The truth is in and its getting worse If you don't stop them who will? Time to react It's reaching critical mass So get behind me or stay in chains Ones you've defended in vein The future's not a promise With a key to hide away Let's break open the constraints and see if you're the same After all that we have done to take away The price of fame that you have taken day after day After all that we have done I'm saved The price that we have come to understand your pain You've let them ascend the throne Horrors in the name of gain Your the one who said its done And it's killing off the rest I can't escape this prison But the brittle bars now ache I know That you're beginning to fade I know There's no chance to be saved Will this ever leave me Or will I carry this for All the time that I have left At least till I forget

The Palace of Dreams Behind locked doors is the key Unless you have the opulence You'll beg on your knees Why has it been left to feed The words have simply left me Why has it been left to seed A world in which we cannot live in I think you have yourself confused By the do's and the don't's of the self accused Dictate our direction with no voice of truth History tells the tale that you're all the same Now it's fallen to the hands glittering gold That's all they know and you've left them wondering why aren't yours? Their false assumptions as to why, will hurt us all Lets hope the saying doesn't ring true The Palace of Dreams Behind locked doors is the key Unless you have the opulence You'll beg on your knees Baited and bitten the wounded stay down Our faces in dirt and our ears to the ground No sympathy for the self-inflicted sickness I'm so fucking tired of the way that they treat you So get on your feet and get ready to shout That enough is enough and it leaves me no doubt How we conduct our behaviour changes now It's a fear that gags you, sweat it out Lay down the youth of the castor and now I am free The sum of the curse that will pass down will itself rise in me Hold to the callow constraints I have to connect Run and step on the king of the sinking Where your fate has been kept in your rage (And it's broken, like the others) Like no other you've scratched at the surface have you come to understand it all? And it's broken at seems we've created I can't hold myself accountable for your mistakes again When this is buried in the ground Covered and stifled I'll sleep Without a second thought but it's not now It's time to wake up It's time to wake up It's time to wake up Wake up

Time that we've bought To try and get close To the top of where we can go But now you look down You've figured out the climbs not worth the fall Do what you're told In hope that it all pays off It's times like these that I can't look back Why wait? It's the medicine you choose Why wait? And it will be the last of you I won't say the struggle within Isn't worth the claim The right to say that it defines you Your affluence has become the ignorance that has caused More than any personal struggle could absolve The suffering of those left in your care Apathetic to the needs of the souls you see as diseased Strip back the skin and see who's within It's you, the same, it's me, the same Knock, knock Now fate awaits Its time to make the grand escape Strap on your sensory prowess And lead us the key You've always been the lucrative type But at the cost of how many lives Have I pushed away from your magnetic eyes Those who are prone to the insidious lie A doctor of spin, you've kept them within Their cage of ensued perspective, Pull harder at the strings until they tangle The message is lost and you slip by unseen For the last time oppressor Now address the few who still stand up to them Begging for help If they're still haunting me then they must... Hold it inside and see what you find Do you see us breaking free tonight Now it doesn't seem fair to you Hold it inside until you resign The clutches with which you cling to life In spite of the stare that shows no remorse I can see all the things That you've buried in the dark And all of the faces that you've left behind And If their still haunting me They must be nightmares for you

The moral compass set to south Down down where you're heading There is no light to see underground No light to see what is missing One day you'll see the surface To create a life worth living Now I see you for what you are (we've left alone) And It's a mess you've made How the promises faded away The story goes that I have lost The only way of stopping you Stop talking down to me You may think that it shows superiority But all I see are the cracks in your composure Revealing insecurities This is bred through your inferiority And the lack of who take you seriously A desperate cry to be heard A foolish cry to be accepted by Those who never care nor quiver at your words. I'm done with taking orders It's time to live life as I please If all the mistakes I've made Have made me the man I am today How can I feel regret This is the end that I've made The suffering you've caused Will never cease to end Streaming with colours Pierced by the eyes That scream out your name And they pray its not the end Streaming with colours Pierced by the eyes That scream out your name And they pray its not the end We can't, we'd suffer again To find the words unspoken I can see what I've become We can't, we'd suffer again To find the words unspoken I can see what I've become The end is closer in this life Than I care to dream, but its not over yet.
