I light this match and I put it to this fuse
So you know what it's like in my shoes
All I’ve gained and all i’ve lost
I pay the price while you control the cost
Again we find ourselves on this familiar way
We walk along the path ignoring the decay
How did it come to this how did we get here
The more I think the more it becomes clear that
Far in the distance
We can see the tide rising high
And from a distance
We can see the problems passing by
And in the distance
We can see the problem from the start
And from a distance
We can watch as the world falls apart
I light this match and I put it to this home
So you know what it's like to be alone
Empty handed and without a place to stay
No one to hear you cry no one to hear you pray
Nobody’s looking at the long run anymore
We’re all so quick to fight and so quick to ignore
Confuse infatuation with necessity
Live in delusion and pretend we cannot see that
I light this match and put it to this silhouette
The ashes fade away along with my regret
I’ll have no part of your direction in these days
I object the double standard that is raised

Dear Depression

Thrown in this crowded world I got nowhere to go
With everything I have I got nothing to show
Don’t want to be alone
Don't want the Company
Don’t want to fight
Don’t want to concede
You see me smiling, but I hide it pretty well
Is it worth it to stand my ground here on my own
Dear Depression
And it’s not easy to face this conflict all alone
Dear Depression
I’m told the lights are on but I can barely see
Trapped in this hazy cell you call reality
Tell me is it worth and
Tell me what to feel
Tell me why i have to fight
Tell me what is real
You see me smiling, I hide it pretty well
It takes all I’ve got to get out of bed
I got my shoes on the right feet this time
You see me smiling, I hide it pretty well

Shattered glass reflects the lights with the
Blue and red glow that compliments the night where
The sound of sirens fill the air
Empty factories echo the refrain of the
Injustice that shadows the remains of
The empty streets that lead nowhere
The peddlers out with bottles in their hand they’re
Pushing panacea and inflating the demand with
Silver tongues everything’s alright
There’s no prescription for the pain and
Even though you cannot see the flames
This city’s burning down tonight
Can you feel the tension, Can you feel the heat
Gunshots in the alley and the riots in the street
Can you feel the tension, Can you feel the heat
Broken from the homes to the cracked concrete
As ink fades away from the headlines
The story fades away from the minds of
A nation bored expecting more
Blank faces glued to the TV
Distorting the concept of reality
How much longer can we ignore
Can you feel the tension
Can you feel the heat
Gunshots in the alley
Riots in the streets
Can you feel the tension
Can you feel the heat
Gunshots in the alley
And they’re dying in the streets
How long will it take till we as a people break?

Last Time

This is the last time
You’ll ever see me again
I’m sorry how it happened but I’m happy with the end
Last time
We walk hand in hand
I’ve had enough of you
It’s time I take a stand
I’m gone
I’ve moved on I’m over you
Our time was a lie
you never told the truth
Last time
This is the last last time
Won’t do this again
This is the last last time
Last time
This is the last last time
Won’t do this again
This is the last last time

Common Threat
01:36

|

Everybody on the take
Winning smile and firm handshake
Empty promise yet again
This friendship isl just pretend
Pick a pocket, cheat and steal
Under table make a deal
Take a cut, take take take
Sign a name for a tax break
Shattered glass
Shattered dreams
This is the common theme
Rising tension
Rising debt
We fight a common Threat
Story told is a white lie
Camouflaged by suit and tie
Making empty promises
Make it better for the kids
Change the world on a platform
Ignore the impending storm
Spend money hand over fist
Add a name to the blacklist
