________________ Breaking the Mirror - Lyrics
Born under pressure. Forged in the flames. I fought through hell, every single day. Rebuilt with purpose. Rebuilding faith. I know my place, no I'm not afraid.
I'm letting go of my failures, erasing the anger, the demons behind my eyes. I'm letting go of the past now, done fighting my way out. I'm breaking the mirror now.
Through my struggle I have found victory. Through this hatred I will end the suffering. No more doubt, no more fear, no more suffering. You'll never kill the flame in me.
I'm letting go of my failures, erasing the anger, the demons behind my eyes. I'm letting go of the past now, done fighting my way out. I'm breaking the mirror now. You tried to crush my soul, you failed. I conquered and prevailed. You'll never break me.

#SolidStateRecords #FitForAKing #OfficialVideo #MetalcoreEarth Groans - Tongue Tied (Official Visualizer)Solid State Records2023-03-03 | Stream Earth Groans' EP 'Tongue Tied', out now — earthgroans.ffm.to/tonguetied
Pulled from the womb I came into the world without a voice My tongue tied around itself
Silence consumes A vacancy, a pain I can’t avoid My heart remains locked inside this cell
Drown in the hopelessness As It pulls me under Choke on the emptiness But I find no resolve
Drown in the hopelessness The silence amplified Choke on the emptiness Tongue tied
Forlorn, a call without a voice No vessel suited for release
The chasm inside growing deep Claws of isolation, sink into me
My soul overflows Swallowed by the void Concealing the form That dwells within
Devoid of control I call to the heavens Release my tongue Cut out the skin
Drown in the hopelessness As It pulls me under Choke on the emptiness But I find no resolve
Drown in the hopelessness The silence amplified Choke on the emptiness Tongue tied
A key to the lock On the gates surrounding me The words to the thoughts Once trapped inside, trapped inside of me
I spoke the same pitch of the world But my voice fell on deaf ears I played the song born in my heart My chorus still echoes through the realms I found my timbre, my song
I wrote my blood upon the page Sealed with the sweat of my brow Hands cling to these aspirations No place for apathy Behold i'll make this sacrifice Trading it all for a spot in the light Blood in these trenches, trickling, Grease the wheels of this machine
Over the edge You give but they take, they take it all away And keep on pushing until you're Over the edge
I tried to swim with the current Now Im drowning with an anchor tied around my feet Another price to pay A compromise you have to make But as you give yourself away You become everything you hate
Over the edge You give but they take, they take it all away And keep on pushing until you're Over the edge The sacrifice is not in vain I have to find the strength to Take control or face defeat I wont go back now I won't go Over the edge
The gears still turn Devouring So fall in line or turn away The bridge will burn Decide your fate You’ll be a pawn or be replaced
Over the edge You give but they take, they take it all away And keep on pushing until you're Over the edge The sacrifice is not in vain I have to find the strength to Take control or face defeat I wont go back now
No longer Bound and chained to the machine
I won't let this passion turn to poison I won’t lose myself to this machine
When our words take shape The world will change When truth is on display Then we will see the world will change
Oh God, behold your creations How can we not sing Each vertebrate an instrument Each breath a symphony
Discordant symphony
May our verses leave a mark A drink to satisfy aridity Igniting fire in every heart An ever flowing spring of remedy
From life to death An endless refrain To pierce the membrane of eternity
When our words take shape The world will change When truth is on display Then we will see the world will change
Oh God, behold your creations How can we not sing Each vertebrate an instrument Each breath a symphony
There’s power In your voice
This sound fills the chambers Some resonate out of key Dissonance, in the choir Let us drown out the adversity There’s power in your voice
#EarthGroans #TongueTiedThe Ongoing Concept - Unwanted Again (Official Music Video)Solid State Records2023-02-24 | "Unwanted Again" is the second single off The Ongoing Concept's new record AGAIN, out March 31st 2023.
“We wanted to go back to our roots,” states Dawson Scholz on The Ongoing Concept's upcoming album AGAIN. “The goal was to do an homage to our earlier albums, while moving forward. We tapped into the old mindset and combined it with where we’re at now. If we were going to get back together, we knew it couldn’t be underwhelming. We needed to give the fans music that was on par with what we were doing a decade ago, but evolved.”
The Ongoing Concept integrate “lyrics and Easter Eggs” from previous albums into the record’s framework, embodying the title quite literally. “Thematically, the songs are continuations,” Dawson affirms. “Every single song has its own vibe even though some of the lyrics may be connected to older tunes.” __
Song Produced by Dawson Scholz Mixed and mastered by Josh Schroeder
Directed by Dawson Scholz Filmed by Dawson Scholz, Parker Scholz, Kyle Scholz, Tj Nichols and Andy Crateau. __
And I might pay the price. Be indebted my whole life. And watch me devour my ego Is that all you want from me? So what would it take to break away And motivate some sense of change? Or maybe I might face the ache that fades away I’m feeling.
Unwanted Every single day Unwanted Here we go again
Lead me on I want a new frame of mind Lead me on From the start, you shattered my heart
New frame of mind All I want back
Want it back I want a new frame of mind Want it back
And you don’t know what I’m going through Don’t know what I’m gonna do Everybody’s weighing in I wanna fall in love with you
‘Cause you lead me on I want a new frame of mind Lead me on From the start, you shattered my heart
Frame of mind Lead me on From the start, you shattered my heart
I hold my tongue and everything gets better
‘Cause you lead me on I want a new frame of mind Lead me on From the start, you shattered my heart
Sinking down a rounded wall Crumbling into a twisted heap Breath saturated with defeat My tongue exhausted from bitter words
Confined, detached, alone With fists I painted walls crimson Denied, deprived, controlled I’ve reached my wits end
Is this a prison? is this purgatory? Worn down from the isolation Is there hope through the suffering?
Sinking down, I slowly fall Suffocate in complacency Breath saturated with defeat My tongue exhausted from bitter words
Confined, detached, alone With fists i painted walls crimson Denied, deprived, controlled I’ve reached my wits end
Is this a prison? is this purgatory? Worn down from the isolation Is there hope through the suffering?
The walls close in more each day The skin has stretched to its threshold My forehead presses up against the edge the feeling of overgrowth
The walls close in more each day Still wrapping tighter around me Now overtaken by restlessness The feeling of overgrowth
There’s no achievement only complacency No contentment, I struggle in vain In search of purpose, still I remain
OVERGROWN!
A foreign light stings my eye Unwelcome but yet new A crack in the atmosphere A vision to lead me through A vision to lead me through!

Constantly complacent in my bones Feeling you reverberate Quit tugging on my soul I feel everything But nothing that I want Face up to the fact that you’ll be better off alone.
I can’t think I am lost in my own head I can’t keep it together Round and round we go Sanity in solitude is misery
Feeling foreign inside my bones Hoping to God that I can make it back home Fighting the feeling of growing cold Fighting this feeling is getting old
So am I mistaken Or are the bodies lining up? No, they can’t seem to get enough Give me more of this I can’t get enough of it Give more of this
I’m feeling cold ‘cause I’m on my way out I said I’m on my way Falling through the cracks Can’t keep my sanity Take it away So I can’t feel the pain.
Feeling foreign inside my bones Save yourself Round and round we go Hope to God that I make it home Dead inside I’m feeling so alone
Losing sanity Losing sanity with praises unto me All your will Sanity in solitude in misery Out in the world you won’t get any sympathy Save yourself I find myself being shallow I view the world through a small dark window Insanity seems to follow I need to find a way to break this habit
I’m feeling cold ‘cause I’m on my way out I said I’m on my way Falling through the cracks Can’t keep my sanity Take it away
Losing sanity with praises unto me Save yourself Sanity in solitude is misery All your will I view the world through a small dark window I need to find a way to break this habit

How routine it feels like Like I fell through the floor Crushed by another passing It’s all happened before
Still I’m not pretending To know every story and every choice I’m just some voice below The background noise
I hope that it’s cancer And not something else Cause I don’t need anymore things I don’t wanna talk about
How could I think such a thing? Who am I to say? Daily devastation that I can’t validate
“What’s wrong with you?” They’ll ask about me “You’re done, you’re through”
Still I’m not pretending To know every story and every choice
I hope that it’s cancer And not something else Cause I don’t need anymore things I don’t wanna talk about
I don’t need an answer Care about heaven or hell I hope that it’s cancer So what does that say about myself?

There’s no other story but this. It’s always something. The hand forcing sticks into its spokes. Sleeping for a day or sleep for 5 minutes but only for a day or two if you’re lucky. See, I sold my board for $20 cause I didn't want to break my arm save the strings. And now it’s like, angry songs make me feel worse. Happy songs make me feel like a liar. I’m a 90s kid. I’m from the sounds of hollow walls and steep secondhand steps. From below the stairs. Hovering above the brick stages. Plastic sheets don’t keep out the cold. It hurts. It hurts. It hurts. It hurts. I swear to God it hurts. If it comes worse for worse. I got a million in the stack and always one in the cavity. I think I’m witnessing the end of the world and I like it.

Dark. Cold. Night. Dare I speak though overcome with silence It’s been so long behind a wall that divides us and hides us from beauty It’s been a dark cold night
It’s been cold, it’s been dark As we ride out the nightfall & weather the blackout Time stops and stands still like we’re frozen in eternity Will the sun rise on the sons of men? And will we hear the Word speak cus we’re listening in the dark? Will You speak?
Tear the veil that hides the light within Destroy the walls that we have made with all our sin As all the voices cry, “Deliver us!” Send the Word - Tear the veil And end this dark cold night
Who can make the sun rise on this cursed ground? That breaks all the silence with just a sound And bring the demise of the gates of hell That banishes death into the last farewell There’s light behind the curtain a mercy full and free Whose hands can break this schism I can’t bear to see? Tear the veil that hides the light within Destroy the walls that we have made with all our sin As all the voices cry, “Deliver us!” Send the Word - Tear the veil And end this dark cold night
Will the sun rise on the sons of men? And will we hear the Word speak cus we’re listening in the dark?
Tear the veil - Tear it down Make war until our sorrows cease Save us and guide us into peace
Tear the veil that hides the light within Destroy the walls that we have made with all our sin As all the voices cry, “Deliver us!” Send the Word - Tear the veil And end this dark cold night
Tear the veil and open heaven’s gates Tear the veil I see the sun is shining Son of God, O guide us into peace

Frozen in sickness No one beside me Can’t find the painkiller Can’t numb the ache Arcane existence Years washed away

I’ve been forced into the depths of agony Blood pulsing like the light in the hallway I’d do anything for some kind of relief I’d do anything I’d do anything

What if I missed a sign again? So often too insecure Thrown off by the noise again Like a vision now a blur
When will I know That the time is right for the hour to strike It’s all wrong / moving closer to a dying sound Take another try walking on air Got me going ’til I meet the edge
What if I missed a sign again? So often too insecure Thrown off by the noise again Like a vision now a blur Might never even know what could have been Never know what I deserve What if I missed a sign again? Sign again?
I’m existing as a ghost But I’m still afloat / dizzy drifting from left to right I’m waiting for a night that never comes But now I’m caught staring at the sun Staring at the sun / waiting for the burn
What if I missed a sign again? So often too insecure Thrown off by the noise again Like a vision now a blur Might never even know what could have been Never know what I deserve What if I missed a sign again? Sign again?
I can’t sleep cause the sky is falling Rest in peace, the noise is calling

Waiting just outside your door Those drops / those tears on the floor Can we talk it out? Find ways to solve the doubt It’s okay I was fine to make the drive There’s a story here / no hindsight We can’t keep draining an empty tank Don’t say sorry it’s not your mistake
Can you look me in the eye? We can try to slow down time Wait until the pain gets smaller But It never subsides
Does it feel like a heart attack? Like there’s no way out and no way back I hate that you’re being trapped by your issues But I’m here with you
Does it feel like you’ve lost control? Losing sleep will take its toll I hate that you’re being trapped by your issues But I’m here with you
There are times when Your sight’s blurry and you’re hurting It feels like the world stopped turning Still trying to make the best of this place Don’t say sorry it’s not your mistake
Does it feel like a heart attack? Like there’s no way out and no way back I hate that you’re being trapped by your issues But I’m here with you

In pieces, in separate rooms By then I had lost my voice It was over, I couldn’t cope or Offer up anymore time
When was the last laugh we had Like when we were twenty-five? It’s over, what I’d hoped for Couldn’t stand being by my side
How could you wanna leave? Put down / just a memory Been holding on by a string
By April, the snow was melting And I thought you’d give another try But it was past now, gone for good now No longer twenty-five
How could you wanna leave? Put down / just a memory Been holding on by a string
Who is it this could be This person in front of me? Know I tried everything But I’m not what you wanted
I hate to call it all a mistake Why couldn’t it come my way? Still blaming the same escape It was fake
How could you wanna leave? Put down / just a memory Been holding on by a string

All around they’re seeking hell tonight Paying tribute in recycled song Out of mind and out of sight Feel so vindicated
Who is it you’re trying to protect? I know the weight pouring down on me We’re in a rotten place tonight Feel so vindicated
I get scared when my eyes close Nobody knows
If I run into the fire will it burn me? Burn me up If I throw it to desire can it hurt me? Hurt me You keep calling me a liar but I see Right through Through you
Too many moments I’ve taken breath Below the flood line Lungs fill up with the truth of it They’ve got intentions, I’ve got mine
Who are you trying to protect? I know the weight pouring down on me We’re in a rotten place tonight Feel so vindicated
The lies that you wrote Nobody knows

It’s so hard to recognize That these diamonds fail to glow Take pills to ease my mind As long as I don’t feel alone
In debt to become incomplete Step back ’til we hear the song repeat Watch as I become obsolete Step back and
Welcome to the way down Keep on telling / selling me a way out Another offer of a faultless life now But I think I’ll just keep it inside Stitch it up and wear it with pride
What’s fake is always on my mind Like money makes the rivers flow Contact the sacred valley Let it know all its trees must go
In debt to become incomplete Step back ’til we hear the song repeat Watch as I become obsolete Step back and
Welcome to the way down Keep on telling / selling me a way out Another offer of a faultless life now But I think I’ll just keep it inside Stitch it up and wear it with pride
They enforce that you don’t matter Man’s horns dictate thereafter But I’ll fight, have a chance at this Fight the chains / fight the engine’s hiss
Step back Step back and
Welcome to the way down Keep on telling / selling me a way out Another offer of a faultless life now But I think I’ll just keep it inside Stitch it up and wear it with pride

I hate when I get left alone I’m sure that all these calls are getting old A short drive / just get me home The cost is nowhere near to what I owe
From the back of the car it’s sinking in Like a shot of fear and adrenaline I’m a lost cause with nothing left Can’t you see that?
My hands are torn up From all these broken bottles I can’t stand, lost too much I know I’ve got my problems
How did it start? This episode’s got me crawling and flying I’m high and I’m low
I watch from afar and make my bets As you sit back and light a cigarette A lost cause with nothing left Can’t you see that?
My hands are torn up From all these broken bottles I can’t stand, lost too much I know I’ve got my problems Everyday I’m afraid That I might find the bottom My hands are torn up I know I’ve got my problems
Drink it down, I’m on empty Shaking now, please don’t worry It surrounds all that I see I’m on empty
My hands are torn up From all these broken bottles I can’t stand, lost too much I know I’ve got my problems Everyday I’m afraid That I might find the bottom My hands are torn up I know I’ve got my problemsBecoming The Archetype - The Dead World (Official Visualizer)Solid State Records2022-08-26 | Off Becoming The Archetype's epic comeback record CHILDREN OF THE GREAT EXTINCTION, out now.

This world was dead from the start When the ancients first found this planet It was nothing but a wasteland A roiling sea Chaos and entropy Uninhabited Uninhabitable
No sign of life A million miles away from home No light to guide Transplanting the seeds of hope
They moved the mountains into place Terraformed the surface to their will They sculpted oceans out of desert space Flawless design in each detail
A formless void A toxic tempest A new beginning Within their hands
They carved the rivers out of dust Transplanted forests where they stand Broke up the fallow planet’s crust Injected life into the land
No way to see it then No way to predict Hidden beneath the skin The host could not detect
There is a curse upon the water And now it lives within us all It is a blight that will devour It will devour us it will devour us all Lost forever Lost inside our own flesh #BecomingTheArchetype #ChildrenOfTheGreatExtinctionBecoming The Archetype - The Curse (Official Visualizer)Solid State Records2022-08-26 | Off Becoming The Archetype's epic comeback record CHILDREN OF THE GREAT EXTINCTION, out now.

A thousand years had passed After the water turned black The curse spread quickly through the masses Internal attack The angel of death kept us alive We crumbled in his hands Beneath his watchful eye
There was no way to escape Prognosis terminal Inevitable ruin our fate Til the arrival
He descended like fire from the heavens Like a bolt of lightning from the sky We crossed an ocean of death to reclaim him Bringer of hope Giver of life
The water of life he carried with him We dashed it to the ground Careless and desperate
A parade of corpses Moving closer to extinction Inexorable extirpation Is there another way

Apprehended by monstrous forms Skin like feathers caked in mud Nebulous speech outstretched arms Protruding veins dripping blood
Sail across the blackened sea To the village of the living things Hollow eyes transfixed on me The silence deafening
Standing in the ruins A world forsaken The empty faces of hollow creatures Longing to awaken Longing to awaken
Death comes for everyone It’s in the water it’s in the air When every step is a loaded gun Every breath is a prayer
Their bodies crumble at the slightest contact Few have managed to survive Endless endeavor just to stay intact Completely hollow inside
I cannot comprehend What my eyes have seen Are these the children of men That I was sent to redeem

Though your failures bind you This death will not define you
Rise renew Extract the water from the body Drink consume Absorb the life within the blood Move regain New life to animate the flesh Go and reclaim the planet
They took his life in a jealous rage He exposed their inadequacies And shined a light upon their failures Unblemished flesh a painful reminder
Retrieved the capsule from the ocean’s grasp Co-opted systems to complete their task The laid the corpse inside the metal frame Connected tubes and wires to the lifeless veins
Not a single drop reclaimed was wasted And when the sacrament was finished The capsule closed and began to rise Pierced the clouds and completely vanished
Veiled in obscurity Hope was gone The soul displaced Clothed in his purity A new day dawns The past erased
It was a strange and dreadful strife The day that life and death contended The victory remained with life The reign of death was ended The ancient writing plainly says Death is swallowed up in death Now its sting is lost forever Now its sting is lost forever #BecomingTheArchetype #ChildrenOfTheGreatExtinctionBecoming The Archetype - The Awakening (Official Visualizer)Solid State Records2022-08-26 | Off Becoming The Archetype's epic comeback record CHILDREN OF THE GREAT EXTINCTION, out now.

Upon arrival of the waking hour The only sound the ringing in my ears In the dark devoid of power Through the black an alien planet draws near
Powerless awaiting descent Incapable of physical motion Suspended in the eternal present Upon the waves of an infinite black abyss
I am sifted through the cracks Within the fabric of reality My consciousness reacts To a new awakening
From beautiful chaos to deafening silence And tortured sound of labored breathing Descending faster and faster to the surface Then all at once time and space stop moving
Blinding light Shatters the darkness Through the night A voice emerges
I am the ancient of ancients The beginning and end The world below you has been corrupted Not from without but from within
It was for this purpose you were chosen Only you can end the curse now Sacrifice your body for the broken Your essence must be poured out
Like a bullet from a gun Space and time Come rushing back into focus Tearing through the heavens With fervent heat Then finally crashing down into the ocean #BecomingTheArchetype #ChildrenOfTheGreatExtinctionBecoming The Archetype - The Hollow (Official Visualizer)Solid State Records2022-08-26 | Off Becoming The Archetype's epic comeback record CHILDREN OF THE GREAT EXTINCTION, out now.

Regaining strength and motor function Rising and falling with the dark black waves Removing life support kicking the doorway open The outside world comes rushing in
I can’t remember the last time I took a breath on my own I’m letting go of the lifeline I’ve never felt so alone
This world is hollow Filled with selfish hollow creatures Conceived in sorrow Captive to their fragile features
Set adrift in a sea of shadows The sound of screaming in the distance On the horizon an object fast approaching A wooden vessel filled with ghastly figures

I’m hanging here just by a thread, slowly fading and I’m seeing red Losing all of my grip on everything I once held on to I just watch it unravel on my downward spiral All I ever held close to me Can you see the lights and fire fall? Burning down till nothing’s left at all Sifting through the wreck and ashes Listen and you’ll hear the love that calls I’m laying here with nothing left just the ashes of my silhouette Is there anything here but all the thorns that block my way out? I just watch it unravel on my downward spiral All I ever held close to me Can you see the lights and fire fall? Burning down till nothing’s left at all Sifting through the wreck and ashes Listen and you’ll hear the love that calls I just had to unravel to a downward spiral Losing all of my grip on all I ever held close to me I just had to unravel to a downward spiral All the thorns would tenderly lead somewhere so much better for me Than everything I once held on to Can you see the lights and fire fall?

You want the things and the promises from before you were a killer before yet from before I just don’t need anyone else to answer. Crouched down citizens will gather up their ranks. Charging everyone down together. One by one. 100 by a hundred so just for a moment, they can fall above you. So what am I supposed to look for? Where am I supposed to be found? Carry me in every direction or lead me up cause you’re every way down. Subject position, crooked lines become distorted over time. arrows in spines that never existed. Who wants to break another fall? Don’t worry, we’ll get there at the same time. Forever is just another word now.

It takes more than wealth to introduce a god of your own It takes stones, it takes mud, it takes hands It takes plague after plague after plague after plague after plague. It takes a lowercase of faith It takes knees on the ground, It takes heads looking down at anyone but yourself At anything but myself I shot the sparrow from suspended flight I took its wings, learned it’s song and rehearsed Appetite filled with curses in hand. Spread them around at incriminating rates I’ll read the lines between I’ll write the lines between Can you see them? Look, I’m not perfect but I’ll change with the new wave. I’ll adjust to everything. Everything and everything but anything I know. I’m right when I just don't care I'll feel when you give me air And I’ll suffocate and not care I’ll breathe then I’ll steal the air Can I get a little less conversation and a lot more action please.

There’s no other story but this. It’s always something. The hand forcing sticks into its spokes. Sleeping for a day or sleep for 5 minutes but only for a day or two if you’re lucky. See, I sold my board for $20 cause I didn't want to break my arm save the strings. And now it’s like, angry songs make me feel worse. Happy songs make me feel like a liar. I’m a 90s kid. I’m from the sounds of hollow walls and steep secondhand steps. From below the stairs. Hovering above the brick stages. Plastic sheets don’t keep out the cold. It hurts. It hurts. It hurts. It hurts. I swear to God it hurts. If it comes worse for worse. I got a million in the stack and always one in the cavity. I think I’m witnessing the end of the world and I like it.Norma Jean - Any%Solid State Records2022-08-12 | Off the album DEATHRATTLE SING FOR ME.

Don’t call it a nightmare, we’ll never have any dream like this Don’t call it a miracle, we never noticed them anyway Don't call it a vibration. Count backwards and walk yourself back back back back I never asked you for anything anyway Drag me up, skinned alive Take my bones, thrown aside You can have them I don't want them back Push me down, fight for breath, you’re alive! I can swim on the floor above you Have more endurance than you I can suffer so much better than you If you want to stab me in the back stand behind me first It all dries up on you cause I’m worth more dead More dead than alive! We are the cool kids Don’t call it a comeback I was never here to begin with So don't call it a resurrection I could only wish for such things I spent too much time trying to figure it out. How the world works and less how I work within it.

“I was born for a storm and the calm does not suit me” “Imagine no possessions.

White flags to start the war. A mountain of fire, a valley of smoke. That which was above is now below. Sing to me in silence, break me back together. Fractured in one piece, the wolves hide from the sheep. Dig sparrows from the dirt, pull snakes from the clouds. Let them war and kill each other on neutral ground.

A thousand years a thousand failures in the making Myriad leaks have nearly killed the operation
Traitor Judas
Impossible task impossible odds we’re undertaking With black market supplies and information No one has dared to face the journey we are making Since it was outlawed no one even has even tried
The hour is now the voyage is critical To shatter the boundary of the impossible Only we can bring them home
Close your eyes and follow the light Let reality bend itself around you By conviction and not by sight Answer the call from deep within you
Zealot Mad man
Many arose and volunteered to go the distance All failed to withstand the tests required to jump Only one reluctant soul displayed resistance To transdimensional-nano-particle radiation
Open the door Step inside All you’ve got to do now is survive

[I’m] not singing this song like it’s fading in the background [I’m] not singing this song like it’s going to be the last time The first note of the melody has rung out too much of the divine The curse is the end of the verse with a thunderous voice, but you draw the line Just silence the beauty and fill the world with pain Just violence and chaos, where all is lost and vain My heart still echoes the words You burned inside that are endless The anthem of heaven But if you silence this song the rocks will cry out The anthem of heaven The chord rings but you want to hear a new song, a chorus to the dirt Discordant anthems of melodic cancer rise to fall before eternity You filled us with screams of symphonic pain You love the broken voice We’re screaming screams of symphonic pain My heart still echoes the words You burned inside that are endless The anthem of heaven But if you silence this song the rocks will cry out The anthem of heaven [I’m] not singing this song like it’s fading in the background [I’m] not singing this song like it’s going to be the last time When this poor broken frame lies silent in the grave I’ll rise to hear of the song of sinners saved My heart still echoes the words You burned inside that are endless The anthem of heaven But if you silence this song the rocks will cry out The anthem of heaven Worthy is the Lamb that was slainThe Devil Wears Prada - Time (Official Music Video)Solid State Records2022-07-26 | Off the upcoming album COLOR DECAY, out Sept 16th — http://tdwp.ffm.to/colordecay

There’s something I can’t share It’s just too hard to explain I’m barely holding on It happens everyday Like a desperate dream That never goes away I’m barely holding on I’m lost in the wake
Oil floats within the water Soon to be set aflame
Time’s moving like lightning Time shifts like a glacier It’s the opposites that I can’t accept This collision / certain death
There’s something I can’t share It’s just too hard to explain I’m barely holding on It happens everyday Like a desperate dream That never goes away I’m barely holding on I’m lost in the wake
What’s to be done about this friction Plagued habits again
I’ve been struck by the lightning I’ve vanished, gone with glacier Cause it’s the opposites that I can’t accept This collision / certain death
There’s something I can’t share It’s just too hard to explain I’m barely holding on It happens everyday Like a desperate dream That never goes away I’m barely holding on I’m lost in the wake
Time’s moving like lightning Time shifts like a glacier
Welcome to the great division The space where numb meets pain

We have not forgotten We are a part of the resistance The underground insurgent remnant We bear this burden through the ages Beneath the surface the war still rages on
They were the chosen ones We have not forgotten We are the only ones Who refuse to let go
Separation Countless dimensions in between Communication Severed ties with ancient mystery No explanation Only the silence of the unforgiving void Dissociation We can’t let this memory be destroyed
This is the work of a hundred generations To recover what was abandoned To unlock the secret of the ancients And traverse dimensional space again
Rebuild Restore Reclaim the truth and take the leap again
The mirror unwinds: Twin archetypes collide. I am reborn, proliferated by a self-replicating passenger: Ghost.
Dormant dimensions grafted to my senses. Infected with fractals, a spore in my skin; a sequence of consciousness begging to begin again. I can finally see the duality of everything: A silent abyss implicit in reality. We're hanging by a thinning thread, waiting for the earth to turn.
As my mind is shattering and the reasons to stay abandon me, I'll survive one death at a time... there is nowhere left to fall. Broken visions of a future where we tear the curtain down.

Don't you “Glass half full, half empty” No glass at all. No glass at all. Always saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. and at the right time but at the wrong thing, and so on. Don't you? Yeah so shake it off and throw it out into jagged teeth And listen for the rattle digging up your dust and bones You can break it off and drag out all the smoke in its lungs And curse out every word even if it tastes like blood. 24 hours and a new beginning!

Yes, I don’t know Is it me or the air? Am I alone? Am I Insane? Do I care?
Am I alive? Is this how I live? Or how I die?
You’re not alive You’d rather die You’re not alive You’d rather die
Am I afraid of my own shadow? Are we afraid of our own shadows? Nothing to fear at all Nothing to escape from

Over a threshold now I’ve emerged in victory Only to be met with doubts And fears a new misery Is to stay mourning the past Comfort is all for back In the womb In the tomb
Remember Will I remember? No Will I..
Only few make it out Been abused By our selves Beaten down On the ground All alone As we roam We crawl in vain to reach the end Will we ever learn it never ends? Only tears we have shed The whole self, we must shed
We crawl in vain to reach the end Will we ever learn it never ends? The whole self, we must shed

Have I fallen prey to the fears I feed myself? Have I slipped into a never ending hell? If there’s an out, tell me now No escape, I’ve run down
Will I keep running? Or will I fight? The battle that rages in my mind
Will I keep running? Or will I fight? The battle that rages in my mind
I am out of air I am out of time I am out of air I am out of time
Just keep going You can’t stay here Or you’re sure to succumb to your darkest fears Your light still glows Though be it dim The truth of your spirit lies deep within

You will stay In the fate I made Delivered by my own two hands
Fear and shame Grips you can’t escape Your life is plagued by my plans
Turn your face away from me Turn your face away from me
I am your fears That feed on abandoned Hopes that for years Have all been forsaken
Turn your face away from me Turn your face away from me
You’ve been betrayed By your reflection Fading away Running Forgotten
