lyrics
where are the survivors? To a world that could only hate. For
we've embraced every drop of poison for every dream squandered away. Here once sat a man who strangled out
all his venom, to uncover true ambition. All that's left is a world uninspired.
What were once our lives, whittled down to private hells. Peeled off layer by layer and piece by piece. Until
nothings left but the questions.."how much further can we go? Is it worth the risk? When's enough enough"?
our dreams have left us. Tomorrow sways us farther and farther away from today. Our hearts once strong and
steadfast, beat like muffled drums. Keeping us marching funeral beats to our graves. Now we sleep
Our dreams became reality and our reality became our nightmares. Anger was our nature, hatred was our choice,
wasn't worth saving, now we sleep.
*what if everyone on this earth stopped dreaming. Stopped striving for more, stopped creating. I thought about
that while I was stuck in traffic on my way to a job I hate. How many people( myself included) waste their
lives doing things they despise, just so we can survive? The irony is that we aren't surviving, we are killing
ourselves slowly. Letting it resonate within us until we are poisoned inside and out, all the joy leaves us and
all that remains is cold,bitterness, and resentment.I see it in my face, in my eyes every morning when I get up,
life being drained from me. That's why we write, play music, paint, act, do whatever. Its proof that we still
breathe, we still feel, we still live.
(All of these songs are personal perspectives about emotions and life experiences.)
