Chariot 04:33
The sea is calm tonight I'm swept away from its very motion And miles to go before I sleep These fragments I have shored Against my ruins Reinventing a realm of dreams Returning the waves of ease Boundaries escalate me Castles in air Is something I can't compromise Over and over again A clear conscious mind Trapped myself in a honest state Across the land In this last moving chariot I spotted you eye to eye Nothing changes the surface on the walls Under your skin, Void spaces surrounding me Boundaries escalate me Castles in air Is something I can't compromise Over and over again What the world has in stored And how luminous it offers But as I cogitate, False hopes revolve around constantly The wreckage of my days Pages fill with empty words Under your skin, I'll reignite this conviction Everything lost in place Everything lost in flames Everything ain't worthwhile Everything departed We were all rooted in the same old gesture Compound in both lost and found Another story to break my stones apart We fell in the distance of perfect parallels With nothing left to say With nothing left to hold I'm dormant I'm stagnant I'm broken I'm sinking Casualty at its finest

Fallacy 02:37
I can't withstand Holding onto the words That were never conveyed Twenty-two in a dire state Relentlessly wandering and astray Forever bringing back The valor I have At least I try Between the ties of everything This is what I've eyes for eternity Will you be a part of this final cadence I can't forget the times I had With nothing left to save me from my urges Filth and fury purge me off from these Impurities Exalt to better days Take this to heart And wear it on my sleeves Like a beautiful drug I can't do without you Loving every instant Like is best for you So now i close my eyes To feel your presence alive Enchantment of horizons I'll grip on tightly Discard the mask We hide behind There is no remorse Only closure in our Hearts and minds A congregation in love The air I'm breathing is something So much smoother All we saw was coloured by the sun Certainty is we have each other's back Predestined to be saved A dream within a dream To keep out in harm's way Let us affray The reflection of false fallacy Won't go down to my grave It's possible to feel attached To a kind of happiness that saves me I won't forget you until the end of time

And so I'll start off with this it's seized me by the ankles of my sodden, worn-out frame I rode the wind and surfed the tides, but flinched and now the oceans have my body. My lungs, they now feel tight. And armed with nothing but flailing limbs and a broken soul, I find myself drowning in your turbulent waters. In the distance, from the lighthouse you watched, but your soul wasn't sated, they call for something much more saturated. Confused state of mind Falter words spoken Composed memories Living with questions The hourglass passing From top to bottom I'll seek you again To the world's end you know Bane of my existence A catastrophe with no deplore Days when blue skies Would Never pass

I closed my eyes to feel what's left of me inside The clock is ticking and I'm moving forward Letters that mean so much Bury all your words into the ground I found comfort in your presence But now everything has changed A ghost that haunts me in my head Sitting on my bed swaying back and forth Wondering where we went wrong Morosely contemplating Manifested the ways Of this complication has uphold There's nothing you can do Another story to break my stones apart Piling up to the brim of my limits I found comfort in your presence But now everything has changed A ghost that haunts me in my head Sitting on my bed swaying back and forth Wondering where we went wrong Morosely contemplating When we were young And all we saw Was coloured by the sun The days were long The nights chills to my bones Stranded here I've been counting the days To wake up unstructured To feel my cold feet To see a light at the end of the tunnel Days of golden To the hand that keeps Pulling you deeper and deeper Is just better to vacate The mountains I have climbed Retrace the steps of life Time has worn, but not me I found comfort in your presence But now everything have changed A ghost that haunts me in my head Sitting on my bed swaying back and forth Wondering where we went wrong Morosely contemplating I've come to realised that Life is nothing more Than a Walking shadow

Vices 02:47
Of many vices There is a time when the rain Cascades down like a waterfall. This drench of hopelessness, Left me drowning with a heavy heart. With weary hands, and idle thought. Now my colours have turned to grey. Every moment and every second, We allow our ignorance to prevail Upon us all. The vitality given, To a grieving hollow. Never again will I have to Drown these demons in sorrow. Never again will I have to Drag this pain undesirable. Never again Set sail to a place of peace. Divide the ocean, the path we chose. Consume the light, breathe in the only candour. Concrete bed Withered leaves Still bright enough Castaway from here, fly
