Glamorous Life

I said that you've got your charms
It makes me alarmed
I'll put on my suit of armor
So I'm not accidentally harmed
Just take a walk in my shoes
I hate that I have the blues
Trying to stay away from the rage
But every now and then I've got my moods
Instead you turned and walked away
When I wanted you to stay
Through the distance that we lay
Gotta find another way
Instead you turned and walked away
When I wanted you to stay
Through the distance that we lay
Gotta find another way
I wouldn't wanna drag you through it
But then again, maybe I would
It's hard to live a glamorous life
When you're just really not quite Hollywood
But through the shadows
I find myself finally free
It's just really not that easy
When they keep on running from me
How you turned and walked away
When I wanted you to say
In the distance that we lay
We can find another way
How you turned and walked away
When I wanted you to say
In the distance that we lay
We can find another way

Gloria!

Time is on our side
No we're not left alone
Gloria- Gloria (That's just how that goes)
But there's nowhere to run
And there's no one to hold
Gloria- Gloria (Solid gold)
Willingness unfathomable
Local new destruction
Let's just feed the cannibal and welcome indigestion
Collard greens in cans on fire
We're stumbling towards solutions
Let's just feed the animal and start a revolution
Gloria-Gloria (Your heart's so cold)
Gloria-Gloria
Time is running out
And I won't have a home
Gloria-Gloria (Solid gold)
And there's nowhere to run
No there's nowhere to go
Gloria-Gloria (I hope you know)
You're ravaged by addiction
Caught in lies and big opinions
And you're waiting for the messenger to send you his decision
But I know you can't control yourself
You're damaged and in need of help
The crisis was too much for you
You're stubborn so your time is through
Gloria-Gloria
Gloria-Gloria
Trapped in a capsule
Locked in a box
Ohh
Empty the shelves
They've just been restocked
Ohh
I feel like concrete
Fall to the floor
Ohh
In isolation
Can't take much more
Ohh (That's just how that goes)
Gloria-Gloria (You're growing old)
Gloria-Gloria

Go to school
Tell all the cool kids they'll be ridiculed
Picked on and laughed at
'Cause the kids are rude
With an attitude
And it's poison
Sell your soul
Learn how to love it
'Cause it's practical
Don't get addicted
It's a chemical
Blamed for the slaughter of millions
Tell the teacher
It's nice to meet her
She's a criminal
Criminal
Learn the lessons
Take the tests
And survive
Stuff your nose
It's only congestion if it's physical
Don't you betray me
You're an animal
You're uncontrollable
You're a murderer
Go to hell
It's only cosmetic
You'll recover well
Don't be dramatic
It's a prison cell
Across the interstellar divide
Tell the king that
It's nice to meet him
He's a criminal
Criminal
Learn the lessons
Take the heat
And survive
You are never gonna get the best of me
Oh I swear to God that much is true
If you did it'd surely be the death of me
So that's something I won't let you do
Spare your criticisms and apologies
Don't you know I've nothing left to give
If I was living life for your opinions
I'd have nothing left for me to live
I guess that I'll just go back to school

Flowers

Colors sitting on a portrait
Waiting to jump off the page
Into their own perfect glories
Mothers sitting in a rocking chair
Cushioning the infants of madness
Into the bosoms of hope
Bodies scattered on the battlefields
Infants were all meant to grow
Give up their hope
Colors, red is the only one we know
Waiting to jump back into
The pages of news
Well you know,
Life doesn't smell of roses
There's no time for imposing lies
Onto wandering eyes
And you've seen
Views of compassion,
But what does that even matter
To you?
And you've known
Since you could remember
About how horribly forced you were
Into seeing this world
But you know
Life isn't about flowers,
So what does that even matter
To you?
You were rushed into it
Thrown into the pit
Nobody understands you, hypocrite
With your blatant lies
And thieving cries
Forced into a world where you're
Meant to die
And you think it's the best
Secretly depressed
Hiding from others
Deceiving the rest
With your blatant lies
Your petals, your cries,
Your flowers
I find it funny how the world has to say
Take all your faithfulness and throw it away
Latch onto hopes and dreams of people before
Throw all your voice away, and walk out the door
Well you know,
Life doesn't smell of roses
There's no time for imposing lies
Onto wandering eyes
And you've seen
Views of compassion,
But what does that even matter
To you?
And you've known
Since you could remember
About how horribly forced you were
Into seeing this world
But you know
Life isn't about flowers,
So what does that even matter
To you?
You were rushed into it
Thrown into the pit
Nobody understands you, hypocrite
With your blatant lies
And thieving cries
Forced into a world where you're
Meant to die
And you think it's the best
Secretly depressed
Hiding from others
Deceiving the rest
With your blatant lies
Your petals, your cries,
Your flowers

In revelations, we'll learn
Civil nations will fall
You say you own the land
But you can't own it all
Don't cry, we all did see it coming
Our backs turned from the law
We are mere cans on the grass
And our God is in awe
I will not contribute, in withdrawal
I am just a martyr, if I'm anything at all
But I will try to rescue, if you should call
For I can be your teacher, if I'm anything at all
Once our bodies have died,
Will we harm any less?
And if that time came today,
Would we all pass the test?
Don't lie, everyone would fail it
We weren't made to be blessed
We're all just experiments
That never progressed
I don't identify with the rest
I'm a variable- Nothing more, nothing less
But I can try to help you, in distress
For I am just a martyr- Nothing more, nothing less

Cerebellum

Cerebellum misfire
Walking on a tight wire
Which way will I sway today?
Seratonin misplaced
Variable heart rate
Neverending dull ache
Though I try
Nothing can compare
To the way
The way she combs her hair
And she looks
So very, very fair
As she prances
Prances 'cross the room
(Wondering if she sees me
And if she knows I'm there
And she looks so very very very fair)

Into The Mist
06:33

She walks real slow through the fading corridor,
The wind blows the colors of her hair,
I watched from my mirror to see where she could be going,
But she's not heading anywhere,
Paint the flowers, darling, you still have time
To escape the curse of fate,
She took one step, dissolved into the mist,
She had too much upon her plate
That's when she lost her mind
She’s a golden soul, lost among the Earth,
She’s floating aimlessly around,
She avoids the hype, for it’s a scam,
Fear has shaken us about,
She ponders all the answers, she holds her tongue,
Questions all authority alike,
She took one step, dissolved into the mist,
She was all too ready to fight
That's when she lost her mind
She found herself

I grab onto
My devotion
And drag it through
One of the many
Dingy lies
In my oxygen
In the blue of the sky
And I step off of
The cliff of dreams
For the last time
It's just not my thing
Bring your manners
Lay them here
Speak a little louder, child
That's my bad ear
And you don't know, don't know what I've been through
Don't know, don't know how to cope
Ooh, I make you shiver 'cause you're not alone
I see it clearly now
Don't you know?
You've made everything turn around
While I'm letting go
So much for the pain, darlin'
You've destroyed me more
And I'm giving up on life
Shutting the door
And you don't know, don't know what happened, do you?
Ooh, I'd pull myself apart if it meant you'd get through
And I'd see you
Standing by
Tell my inner God to
Open up the sky
And I'd part my wrists
Bleed away
Just to play the slots toward heaven
You don't know, don't know what I've been through
Don't know, don't know how to cope
Ooh, I make you shiver 'cause you're not alone
Baby, you
Yes, you
You're not alone
