Half Life 09:50
lyrics
buy track
What type of soul would do something like this? What kind of mind would be so untamed? Create a life of hatred and misery Start a chain which unchecked, never ending Always pain Live a life of anguish and fear In the presence of ones you hold dear Spilt the wine, now builds the rage Prepare for the onslaught, not again Shut down your brain, protect your soul Disappear, to where they can't follow Let someone else, take up this pain Wake up all bloodied, and bruised again. Blow by blow, it's taking you down Hit by hit, you flail apart Bone on bone, it ruptures your soul Tear and split, your only control "Yes I am alive To take in the pain I've come as salvation To shelter you from the shame Yes I'm taking control While you sleep in our mind I'll keep the anger Away from your life" "Now I've come to the end Of my visit with pain I will return When the rage comes again I'll make you forget All the trauma and fear Yes we'll live together In this half life we share" Hide the fear, hide the fear, hide the fear Hide the fear, hide the fear, hide the fear Hide the pain, hide the pain, hide the pain Hide the pain, hide the pain, hide the pain Hide the rage, hide the rage, hide the rage Hide the rage, hide the rage, hide the rage Feel the fear in this half life we share Feel the pain in this half life we share Feel the rage in this half life we share Feel me in this half life we share. Feel me......

Stalking for a good time Walking the life of a sinner Sheathed in unholy white Soon turned to lust Drowning in waves of heat and sweat Endorphin Rising Endorphin Crash Endorphin Rising Endorphin Crash Darkness surrounds Bodies crowded close Hungry for acceptance My legal high Keeps me spinning in waves Endorphin Rising Endorphin Crash Endorphin Rising Endorphin Crash Swimming and rocking in time For pleasure and pain in this life Taking in the liquid scent Feel free for Release Release me Release Release Me Back in circulation To become the next prize Hungry for acceptance I'll be the high Keeps you spinning in waves Endorphin Rising Endorphin Crash Endorphin Rising Endorphin Crash Endorphin Rising Endorphin Crash Endorphin Rising Endorphin... ....Crash

Down 03:40
lyrics

People are talking About you going down Everyone's listening It's the talk of the town You better learn to swim Or you'll drown In this town Yeah you're going down People are watching you They see you're every move I know they're wondering Is there something to prove There's been some talk around About you Going down You better learn to swim Or you'll drown In this town Yeah you're going down Yeah you'll drown Oh down Were you down on the ground would I be surprised Would I be content knowing you had died Trust is all but gone, you took it when you left Not being strong enough is all that I regret Not strong enough People are talking About you going down Everyone's watching you You're the talk of the town

I open my eyes Today's the day I realize Time is passing by It's time to live the simple life Time to live without restraint Time to push the pain away Time to live without regret Time to live to live to live There was a time when my world was shattered When I always thought the worst The little things they used to twist and turn me Making my life so unreal I didn't see what was happening, drive away My mind was consumed With the worst Case scenario I was lost Kill me now Watch and wait for catastrophe Always holding me back The mountains dwarf me two feet tall I can't go on like that I was alone in this fight Pulling me into despair Angry and seething of the loss Compromise my guard once again I couldn't understand why it didn't come together I tried to show; I tried to force, to exact my will on you Only a matter of time until you left me standing bare And in my hazy thoughts, I see my problem and the truth Now I see the.... Now I see the.... Now I see the.... Now I see the truth A little tension now and then I get through it in the end Now with my new found sense of being Nothing comes in-between the calm There are times which test me hard But I remember just how far I've come before this time , now Nothing comes in-between My calm Rolling off my mind Shaking off the doubt Rolling off my mind Shaking off the doubt Rolling off my mind Free No longer wait for catastrophe No longer holding me back No mountains to dwarf me two feet high I will go on and on But every now and then I feel That doubt seeping it's way in And all I have to do is remember To feel back into my past I didn't see what was happening, drive away My mind was consumed With the worst Case scenario I was lost Kill me now Through the years that I look back And see my lonely self I thought I was complete I thought I was so sure, I thought it was the only way to be Then I realized I wasn't so sure And Now I live the Simple Life And Now I live the Simple Life And Now I live the Simple Life And Now I live the Simple Life I open my eyes Today's the day I realize Time is passing by It's time to live the simple life

Take my hand There's a city on the water Where everyone can be Everything There's a little bit of sunshine Clear the worries from your mind Rest your eyes Don't think ahead It's all right It's all right Dream and sleep Float down a drifty river Let the sunlight pass through you It's O.K. Don't need to feel guilty Go back to sleep back to sleep Breathing deep breathing deep Rest your eyes Don't think ahead It's all right It's all right It's all right It's all right It's all right It's all right

about

The music on the most recent release "Half Life" could be considered by some as Art Rock. Others may call it simply Alternative while others may hear it as Math Rock or Indie Rock. I guess one could say it's all of those things making for an unusual and interesting musical soundscape.
