Descent 03:24
Obscured by light, trapped within torment, what once was bright, the spark in my eyes heeds no fire.
2.
I 04:16
Down bad, shaky knees weighed down by abandoned shadows, vivid memories, pacing in circles, gazing at my feet, forever crumbling. no sense of time, no sense of place, no reason to keep pushing forward. i'm lost inside of this hell i've created. This place is unfamiliar, these footprints aren't my own. is this my new reality? landscapes i can't remember.

II 04:17
We raise our heads in search of anything to guide us through. moving forward with open arms and a blank slate for a soul. Everyone acts all the same, not a single person steps out of line. just a hive mind, where's the queen? what's their motive, where's their passion? where's their heart? where is their heart? I see their cold dead eyes, there's nothing behind. I feel their fear shoot down their spine. keep your distance. Machine men with machine minds, machine men with machine hearts. they all beat to the same drum, they march perfectly in step.

III 04:01
Displaced, took hold of this pain. fresh coat of paint like a well-oiled machine. the fear of falling out of line holds my nose to the fire. stripped of my will, muzzled, buttoned up my lip. my desire decapitated. always watched but feeling invisible, lost out at sea. Drop in a bucket, one of a million, needle in a haystack, softer by the minute, my periphery shrinks, walking with a limp.

Halt 02:53
Trapped in this torment, this utopic disasterpiece, smooth sailing, but lost at sea, stuck in a paradigm, all do the same thing at the same time, to do something unique, it's like pulling teeth. The principles of perfection rip to pieces with the simplest of pressure. the end of the map closes in as we stay circled by threats to its very existence. sail off into the sunset, somewhere someone sings a different song.

IV 04:36
Years of my life lived as a lie, I found shattered pieces of me along the way. I found out what was real as i put it all together, built back better. broken bones heal, can it break me or turn me into stone? Lost in the sea of despair, everyday i see what keeps me afloat, still floating. more lost glances, empty stares, kept me questioning, never falling in. I swim around the vapid sinkhole. The current guides me where to not go, still my decisions circle what's laid out for me. am i really thinking freely?

V 04:26
Blindfolds that blind even the soul, condemn us to questioning what's right in our lives. Days go by, nothing changes no matter which way i push. It always comes right back, pendulum. it always comes right back, pendulum. But we fight through the numbness, must unite, awaken from within, start anew, this is a rebirth, know your worth. Weighed down by this mighty hand, but with wide eyes we see ourselves stick to our promises. we thought we were something when in reality, we were nothing. but we turned a new leaf. now we are everything, we are everything.

VI 04:30
I need to know, when will it end? nobody knows, at least not yet. All we know, we're all alone in this, all that we have, the reason we fight, keep our hope alive, keep our souls bright. I regret nothing, but one thing i wish, to know i'm giving enough, I'll die for this. Now, the pain i suffer, it's no match. my heart starts beating out of my chest. Just as it was when i arrived, I stumble, I fall, into this dark abyss. what have I done? where do I know this feeling from? carried away by the riptide into the ether. it all goes dark as i black out, and when I wake up, it all so familiar, right back where i started, the beginning of it all.
