Troubled Times Verse 1 Wait, one second what was your plan All this strife that’s in my life, I can’t understand Time is rollin’ and it’s cutting me down You’re falling off a cliff, and you can’t touch the ground But no sorrows, did you think I was weak? I’m caught in your web, but I still have my peace You try, you pry, make illusion your game All of your victims are waiting to say One day you will see Verse 2 Cheater, deceiver, father of lies All your tricks and politics, you saver the cries Time is fading, and your cast out at last Accuse all day no songs to play, there’s no one to sway Loser abuser, did you think you can win You tried your luck and now your stuck, were keepin’ it real Why oh why, did you leave your first state All of your victims are waiting to say One day you will see Chorus Troubled times are gonna come Weight lifted off of me All of your lies and your deceit Are paid in full complete Caus’ troubled times will find a way To settle debts of greed And when you find yourself alone Then you’ll remember me

Boiling Point 03:49

Boiling Point Verse 1 You will find that there’s a way, to help humanity But it takes a selfless life And a heart full of love While we still have time to try, we must look with eyes to see Now our time is running out It’s our day of reckoning Verse 2 We must take notes from the past, agree to disagree But the wise have laid a path To avoid uncertainty You may have more than you know, walk with integrity Now our time is running out It’s our day of reckoning Chorus Here we come, take us to the boiling point Streets are burnin Fallen State, there will be no time to wait World gone crazy Labor pains, fear starts runnin through your veins Tempers ragin Don't be late, stresses start to aggravate Times are changin

Sands of Time 02:34

Sands of Time Verse 1 So as I’m sifting through the sands of time All that’s left behind are the faded memories Of a place where I would run and hide In the corners of my mind So dark no one can see Verse 2 Upon a closer look your bound to find A grain of another kind One of cognitive reprieve We put behind us that which we perceive To be something that deceives, no abject apologies Chorus After all, we are all just human beings Pouring through the hour glass of life What we can’t see from within We will find beneath the lonely desert sun

Pulling Dirt Intro What’s this you say you know? Let go Let go Life hurts its time to go! We Know We Know Verse What, can’t you believe? What, can’t you perceive? Now, there’s a last chance Try, life at a glance Pre-Chorus Feel it calling Drag you crawling Powerless to its pull Gravity has got you low Chorus Wait with chances for the answers Weighing down on me Let the blind man see It’s just a part of me We carve our path the straight line Look with visions past We breathe our moment’s last Dirt pulling down on me

The Minotaur 04:03

The Minotaur Verse In the dark it waits beneath the labyrinth gate It’s never satisfied with those who wish to come an try Down this corridor looms, your impending doom It's a one way trip there’s no way out it’s only you. With Its grotesque face, a nightmare’s cold embrace The forgotten story the hideous beast in purgatory There is no light of day, for those who’ve come to play Here you are in this place to meet the legend face to face Chorus Close your eyes, try to run and hide He always finds what he’s hunting for Find your way in his twisted maze A wrong turn and you’ll meet your fate It’s just our past that stalks us A monster in your conscious You’ll need your courage to confront your fear Decide before you even find the door You must defeat the raging Minotaur

Don't Stop Now Verse When we met we felt alive, hearts ignite internal drive We run strong we’re known for that, no one else can fit this act When it’s down to push and shove, she brings peace that’s from above We crossed bridges near and far, city-by-city it’s to the stars Pre-Chorus I look for you and think of you The way that things might have been I lost my head and lost my way There is no, no going back Chorus Don't stop now Don't stop now I promise that you will get better Don't let go Time seems slow We’re helpless to life’s last endeavor Hold on tight Stand and fight Everything seems so much clearer Can’t you see what’s Left of me And nothing is left here that matters

Sensory Overload 03:46
lyrics

Sensory Overload Verse We let the static world control our very lives Underestimate our need for people to be alright It’s just an image on the screen Just tap here its all serene An imitation you will find All while you hide in your disguise Chorus It’s all a sensory overload It’s all a sensory overload It’s all a sensory overload What can we do? What can we stay? Bridge A new world of fantasy play Digital problem, we already got them They keep files better watch what you say Digital problem, we already got them Eyes of the Net they’re watching you Digital problem, we already got them They sell lies that are twisted and skewed Digital problem, we already got them

Gone Too Far 03:08

Gone Too Far Verse 1 It seems like just the other day; we shared a laugh or two But then I heard somebody say, he blew himself away Verse 2 My first reaction and yours too, this cannot possibly be true Of all the people that I know, he should have been the last to go Chorus But now he’s gone too far Past the point of no return How could you go this far You left us so broken and scarred Verse 3 It happens somewhere everyday, a loved one is quickly taken away I wish there was something I could say, to make everything okay

APATHY We make believe in Stand in place stand your ground What does it mean when you feel you really don't care at all Don't care at all Don't care at all We still keep dreamin What took place or been found It doesn't mean anything if you really don't care at all Don't care at all Don't care at all

Zero Gravity 03:19

Zero Gravity Verse Life of insane, slip and you’ll fall Cant make mistakes, It won’t be long Move in the night, Hide from the light Burned all in sight, lost all my sense of right Chorus And when you lose your sense of self You look to like minds for someone to help Don't drift too far or wave farewell The water around you is getting deep You stress all the time and hope for sleep Your cut off from the air you breathe Turn around Into the dark you been cast into zero gravity

Cataract Verse Darkness (It rules) across these lands Maybe (To see) we need some light to shine through People (Our friends) are casualties Systems (Corrupt) are made to kill the family Chorus How can we see with these scales upon our eyes Our only hope is to wake up and realize Open my sight to a world that’s left unseen Light in a dark place, eternal weight of glory

20th Century Bloodbath Verse 1 We talk about the progress, exaggerate the process Convince ourselves the numbers are real Contemplate the future, while facing off the nuclear The end game is always the same Verse 2 War machine keeps turning, while people’s homes are burning Wave the flag, triumphant victory Develop new technology, counter intel. activity Call to arms entire families Verse 3 Struggle for world power, execute the coward There is no room for human empathy What to teach the children? This global condition Bloodbath in the 20th century Chorus Evil minds Plot destruction of the human race We must see The guilty party lives in you and me
