I will practise life and smile As everything passes me by I will wait for the dreams And the clouds to come in I will sit here amongst All the world and its thoughts And be stationary and meaningless I will sit here beside All the tired and the wise Full of space Here me I am the oblivious, the obvious Hear me, I am the storyteller I will open your heart and smile As everything darkens inside While you wait for a light As the clouds bring the rain And I the thunder I will stand here above All the room and desire I will stand here beside The awake and alive Till they die Here me I am the oblivious, the obvious Here me I am the doubtful Here me. I am the wicked heart, the whipping tongue Hear me, I am the storyteller Here me I am the oblivious, the obvious Here me I am the doubtful Here me. I am the wicked heart, the whipping tongue Hear me, I am the storyteller

Devastate 05:40
Someone defeat The need to devastate Subdue the escape Empower the resolve Somebody tell me The slip from here Will break everything As I fall My hand is tied To my fragile existence Believing my life Is better dissolved Better that way for everyone Better that way for our world This ground is moving The stinging air breathes Listless I linger A billowing crimson That colours your tears Yet never I falter I Feel the thunder Inside your silence Better that way for everyone Better that way for our world Smile for you Smile for them Kept down But it will devastate

Pt i. ‘The Silent Rising’ As she sits staring out at the city Shining lights block the starlight completely So above all the noise and the motion Is oblivion She knows no-one down there had the feeling Of the troubles that fate was revealing All the minds in the noise and the motion are oblivious Hope for the silent rising (wake up the minds of the jaded) Hope for the silent rising (live in the hearts of the faded) As she hides in plain sight of all people She silently walks with the fearful They surround her and fall through her fingers She lets them go And the clock in her heart keeps on counting And the world that surrounds her keep moving She needs nothing to drag her down further She simply descends Hope for the silent rising (wake up the minds of the jaded) Hope for the silent rising (live in the hearts of the faded) Pt ii. ‘Patterns and Thoughts’ She can see patterns, she can hear thoughts The geometric and whispered, the discovered and the sought And the patterns they are pathways and the thoughts are the way They are focusing more everyday She starts to wonder to whom can she turn? Is there anyone out there to listen to her? The last time she made effort , she was slandered and cast aside The only belief from anyone, that she lied In a scheme that is greater, than that of one man It isn’t easy to see every part of the plan And while she knows the answers, but not quite the path She knows the many will be left holding fast to the air Pt iii. ‘Lingering’ (Instrumental) Pt iv. ‘A Worthless Book?’ He’s connected to her and to everyone There is nothing to fear but disconnection That sense of exposure That he ceases to be ‘I’m in love’, ‘I might hate them’ ‘I’m making ambiguous statements’ ‘I’m maintaining some intrigue and mystery’ Without all of the book knowing everything There is only some existence If the world, doesn’t know what you’re doing Are you here at all? ‘I’m in love’, ‘I might hate them’ ‘I’m making ambiguous statements’ ‘I’m maintaining some intrigue and mystery’ ‘I think the government bullshits’ ‘The free world is led by a fuckwit’ ‘I can’t find the words to hold on to reality’ Without this, no existence ‘Without this, he’s invisible’ ‘Without this’, she says ‘You are the living’ Still he can see nothing at all. ‘I’m in love’, ‘I might hate them’ ‘I’m making ambiguous statements’ ‘I’m maintaining some intrigue and mystery’ ‘I think the government bullshits’ ‘The free world is led by a fuckwit’ ‘I can’t find the words to hold on to reality’ Pt v. ‘Onwards’ (Instrumental) Pt vi. ‘Charitable Expectation’ (Instrumental)

Do we view the same stars? Drifting through the same night Do we feel the same breeze? Bathed in the same sunlight And if time doesn’t stop But rolls back on itself Like smoke held in the air Why must I stand creating words in my head? An emotion filled monologue that has seen better times I wander to that lonely street To the house that welcomes me I remember being happy I remember being safe All I had to say was goodbye All I had to say was goodbye There was something hiding in a message Looking for response, a destination of belief It may have been put on hold It may have been a lie Sometimes it may reflect itself As I see it in your eyes Sometimes unreachable Like the spectrums in the sky What do we do to memories? What can they do to us? Hold them close when we are alone To be forgiven of our sins All you had to say was goodbye All you had to say was goodbye It may have been put on hold, it might have been a lie Sometimes it reflects itself, as I see it in your eyes There was something hiding in a message I gather up my thoughts, and put them away I know what the world can be, this world as it is Is not for me, is not for me Fear makes us companions, It can help us rise If we push harder, and leave blue skies

While We Are 06:28
While we are, we are not While we move, we are lost While we bullshit, we are fucked While we fuck, we dream While we dream, we are safe While we save, we are heroes While we Are While we work, we have worth While we try, we can do While we live, we are life While we fade, we are wasting While we drink, we are fun While we abstain, we are boredom While we Are The pen on paper The lines and marks To comprehend them To read the dark To see the difference To know the lines The pen on paper The words it hides And so to distance And so to space To warm to hold this To bitter to taste This winter feeling This autumn soul End here in silence End here

Never more connected and concerned Never more deceiving or disturbed Never more apart or more undone Never more together Never more complacent or asleep Never more destroyed and incomplete Never more the weak to lead the weak Never more connected Slip away Feed the faith in isolation Understand, that your place is where you are Agree, repeat It’s all that you can do in understanding Open your hands And receive your nothing with a smile Never more delighted or distraught Never more enlightened yet not taught Never more correctness smells of shit Never more the fear Never more the weakened feeling strong Never more the righteous being wrong Never more the system shutting down Never more delighted Slip away Feed the faith in isolation Understand, that your place is where you are Agree, repeat It’s all that you can do in understanding Open your hands And receive your nothing with a smile Never more deluded or pressed down Never more the critic is the clown Never more opinions to be seen Nothing to believe in Slip away, Feed the faith Understand your place, Open Hands dictate We stay here

‘I am not the man I wished to be’ Jeremiah said out loud to no-one ‘I travelled some roads not meant for me, Troubled, alone and mistaken’. ‘And through every struggle, some overcome, Some lost inside, slowly burning’ ‘I learned an acceptance, of who I became, And who I pushed down and left broken’. And the time is approaching to rise And the time is approaching to rise Jeremiah stood tall and looked around Did all that he could to not seem he was fighting He held out a hand to the girl on the ground As she reached up to hold it, she noticed the slightest of tremors As she climbed to her feet he was turning He was leaving her watching him move to the lights And as she called out in gratitude, asking his name He started to call out, but then he just faded into the air All I see is the light, all I feel is the heat I see through everything All I need is the stillness, all I need is the peace I see through everything There is nowhere to hide, no safety in place I am in everything I can see through your eyes And speak with your voice And it makes me sound tolerant I feel through your skin How the breath of the wind Can stir you inside I hear what you hear When the speaker’s voice raises And carries itself to your ears And I know that you think Though I can’t see your reasons For staying here Only now could I be Something like any other Like a man who exists When existence is fine Who feels nothing more Is required for fulfilment But living here, living this life And yet I still see visions Some regard them just dreams Or are they real possibilities, real opportunities That I have to change Who I am to be? And the red in the sky was within him this day And his blood ran with darkness and cold And his vision directed with malice He moved till there was no-where to go Those who blocked and impeded were trampled Cast down with his fire and spite He would beat them to loss and confusion With all of his might And the time is approaching to rise And the time is approaching to rise But the distance he travelled grew greater And the further he went, more he felt And the feeling was guidance and forgiveness For all of his life, all that he dealt When a woman came to him with kindness His confusion caused her to smile When he ran, she followed and with patience She pieced back together His scattered heart In a quiet and considered existence In a corner, the world could not know In a time when the sorrow was memory So a future could grow As the world was returning to colour And the silence returning to sound And the heat of the sun fading discord So the peace could be found.
