Swan Song
(Thompson/Martinazzi)

Time dropped out from under my feet
And I've walked a thousand miles away
But there's no building a bridge tonight
That will ever take this pain away

Raining down on top of the world
Worms crawling out of the earth
Somehow none of this seems quite right
But I'll try for what it's worth

Passing the days and keeping the pace
And grasping a past where nothing will last
Tilling fields of strife and sin
While the sun rolls around to come back again

There's no where to go that feels like home
Lined up like soldiers all in a row
Somehow being pulled from all sides
Feeling like we'll wash out with the tide
Facing all the lies you can't deny
Why even bother with these times
I go find lost friends of mine
But I'm too late to wish them goodbye

Passing the bar while growing apart
Crossing the line, but not in time
Facing each day with a newfound sense
Of being a prisoner of my own regrets

Sitting on the edge of the dawn
Wondering where all of my time has gone
Every single day I look back
Everyday is a deep black

Time dropped out from under my feet
And I've walked a thousand miles away
But there's no building a bridge tonight
That will ever take this pain away


Thoughts Assemble
(Thompson/Martinazzi)

Say you're thinking about your life?
Just a knot in the thread of time
Done thinking about the past?
Days gone that would never last

I've never been up that hill
While the sun still shines

Spending time with my mind on you
Just a mark with a subtle view
Done thinking about my time
Backing up to the starting line

I've never sought to try to
When the moon is high


Allusions To A God

Life is in front of me
What we choose to see
Gives us hope

Dreams are escaping me
Are embracing me
Where I go

Lose your intentions
That'll lead you home
Choose your extentions
Alluding to a god

You've got that kind of face
Such a simple grace
Loving flow

You're all the proof I need
To make me believe
In what we've got

Lose your intentions
That'll lead you home
Choose your extentions
Alluding to a god


Badge
(Clapton/Harrison)

Thinking bout the times you drove in my car.
Thinking that I might have drove you too far.
And I'm thinking 'bout the love that you laid on my table.

I told you not to wander round in the dark.
I told you bout the swans, that they live in the park.
Then I told you bout our kid, now he's married to mabel.

Yes, I told you that the light goes up and down.
Don't you notice how the wheel goes round?
And you better pick yourself up from the ground
Before they bring the curtain down,
Yes, before they bring the curtain down.

Talkin' bout a girl that looks quite like you.
She didn't have the time to wait in the queue.
She cried away her life since she fell off the cradle


The End of Insight
(Thompson/Martinazzi)

Archaic is your god
With that herd mentality
Trample everything in sight
Your ability to destroy is underwhelming me
The end of insight is at hand
Great sadness washes over me
As I think of the wide and narrow
The prospect of our black tomorrow

Now all you've got are loss and fear
A primal scream that no one hears
I regret to inform you of the truth
There is no truth for you to see

It's the end of insight
And it's coming again and again
The choir shouts "amen" again
God rest all wary gentlemen tonight
And as the frost creeps its slender hands
Your eyes seek to find a fresh romance
Any idea you try to comprehend in the end
Will lead you to a place you cannot document

I've been to a hell you can only imagine
My mind's a place I just can't run from
So think before you breathe
And eat these words alive

It's the end of insight.


Two Heads of The Hydra

I can't take this anymore

Where you going to run
When there's no where to run to?
You are...

Look what your war has brought upon the world
"We're proud supporters of it."
The utter destruction of every man, boy, and girl
"We've seen some gains for the first time."
"Through expanded incentive and partnership measures."
I suppose now the ones who are left
Are the ones who will continue the bloodshed.

"Today, I'm committing our government to a new policy."

And other reports today indicate that
over a fourth of the European population
has been infected by the outbreak
The president today saying he believes
the CDC will soon provide those infected
with a proper vaccination

And after several weeks today
The president decided to retaliate
against those responsible for the bombing
Over sixteen thousand troops were deployed yesterday
to the Canadian front.
