WAKE UP

OPEN YOUR EYES

THE WAY YOU PERCEIVE THE WORLD

IS CHANGING TONIGHT

CORPORATE OVERLORDS

IN CASTLES SO HIGH

PREY ON THE WEAK

THEIR ONLY MEANS TO SURVIVE

AS THE GREEN PAPER GROWS

- THE BROWN GRASS DIES

WE POOR WORN INTERLOPERS

- FORCED TO DIE

THE GROUND OPENS UP

- TO SWALLOW OUR CRIES

THE BLOOD OVERFLOWS

- THE DEVIL TELLS YOU HES RIGHT

WAKE UP

DONT LET THE SKYSCRAPERS LIE

THEIR LUXURY

IS FALSIFIED

PERFECT SMILING BILLBOARDS

TEETH SHINE BRIGHT

SATANS GRIN HIDES HIS LIES

ITS TIME THAT WE FIGHT

WE NEED TO CHANGE

OR WE WILL DIE

In a deep blue sea

Sinking silently

My eyes open up to see

Darkness all around

Shadows create a cloud

The black of the deep blue surrounds me

My watery tomb

Loves like the womb

Like heavens gate with no entry

Engulfed and falling

The end is calling

The sea floor approaches my feet

Lifeless and empty

A feeling so gently

Forgetting all meaning

Screaming, and screaming

Yet quiet, no grounding

As I lay on the floor and I seethe

The water еnters without knocking

So deep yet therе’s a tick tocking

A clock in the mouth of an ocean

Time draining, silent loud commotion

I open my mouth to breath

Water fills my lungs at ease

She’s such a tease

The ocean I mean

Clean, solemn, and free

It’ll rip you apart

Leave you in the dark

An art piece, for the fish to see

Giant concrete mountains

Fountains made of gold

Cold cold nights

Hot fiery fights

Seas of broken body’s

A child stranded nodding

Smiling through pain

As the earth lies in vain

Landscapes of styrofoam

Appalachian nightmare

No place for a Home

No where to go

Break free

Break away from thee

Destroy what they created

Make this a place to be
