1.
Swollen and lonely
 Counting pennies in my pockets
 Yelling at myself
 Land of the living dead
 The sun begins to rise again
 An endless cycle of darkness slithers through
 Its Sunday sickness again Set off! more dopamine this grin is wearing thin. I feel death standing over me
 His cold breath sends shivers down my spine
 Maybe this is the end
 My limbs are stretched to oblivion
 My brains deprived of the chemicals to keep me sane
 Sunday sickness, my friend! Counting pennies in my pocket, yelling at myself. Empty bags and empty bottles, welcome to my hell. Throw my body back to the stars
 Unchain my wrists and stretch my arms
 Give me the chance to break or bend
 I know I’ll break, I’m bound to break
. Sew my lips so I can’t speak
 Again I’m useless again I’m weak
 And I take the blame, I always take the blame 
Like a fist full of sand I’ll slip away
 Empty bags and empty bottles, I am never satisfied
 Over indulge always burnt out, this is my life
2.
Prison Cells 01:17
When my mind awakens, the realisations always hit me that nothing lasts forever.
I’m just reliving moments, creating new ones and journeying farther than the eye can see.
 A wishful projection onto the stage of conscious thought.

 I am nothing. Prisoners.

 How can I escape from the genes embedded within me? 
Strength has no power here. (It is impossible.)
 How cruel to become aware of these things that cannot change. 
Death will strike me down and all I will have left is a life unlived. 

I am nothing. Prisoners.

Mutants 03:29
Cursed with self reflecting hate
, I can’t break free, nothings changed. 
Until my consciousness is strained
. Getting fucked up is all the rage

. Chemical change is on the rise now
. Throw away conformity
. A higher level of being awaits them
, the blindfolds are lifted so they can see
. You are god and they are pawns
, seems the world is mad at me. 
Tied hands and drunken stands. The catholic church yells blasphemy

 Times so simple times have changed
 adulthood hits nostalgia reigns
. Not fucked up and not deranged
, just one to many pills on my page
. Every day it eats through my mind 
Every day the walls seem confined
 Every day a new pleasure to feed 
And every day a new discovery
 Every day Drugs and seg!

The summer rains awakening
 This feels like forever
 Can you feel it?
 Thunder echoes in the distance 
Balanced together
 Can you feel it?

 Draw it closer and breathe it in 
 Revel in the majesty of the unknown 
 Its another day, another night spent smothering flames
 Our reality in this world will never truly sink in

 Across the horizon
 Under the sea
 In front of your eyes
 Swelling your mind 
Suspended in a sun beam 
A speck of dust that’s forever our home

 Can you feel the energy
 Feeding off one another
 Draw it closer, breathe it in  
Revel in the majesty of the rabbit hole 

 Pastel blues radiate across the open skies
 The natural world makes you feel, 
 Makes you feel alive
 So appreciate all you’re able to exist within
 The sun doesn’t rise and set just for you.
