We are just art
We are just art
Fade and restart

We are only art
Fade and restart
It’s not too late
You’re not too far gone

People often say
Living makes you strong
Well they’re wrong
What you give away
And what’s taken from you
You can’t undo
Glimmers appear
Every now and then
Serene, sincere
Inner quiet
Flashes of zen
A sapphire breath
Each mistake you made
Each time you were betrayed
Everyone you hurt
Every lesson learned
Everything you’ve lost
The times you were stopped
They brought you here
They brought you here
They brought you here
It all brought you here
Know the night will end
And so will the day
So wait
For the air to change
Clouds passin’ by
It’s time
Glimmers appear
Every now and then
Serene, sincere
Inner quiet
Flashes of zen
A sapphire breath
Each mistake you made
They brought you here
Each time you were betrayed
They brought you here
Everyone you hurt
They brought you here
Every lesson learned
They brought you here
Everything you’ve lost
They brought you here
The times you were stopped
They brought you here
Each mistake you made
They brought you here
Each time you were betrayed
They brought you here
Everyone you hurt

The moments that make
The stories defining our fate
Every mistake
And every elation
Peripherally seen as we race
Bad information
Everything ends
All that we have
Are we pretending
That moments can last?
What’s now behind us
Fading reminders
Misrepresented
I fly away
From all the joy and the pain
Pure isolation
But I can’t escape
Distorted dreams I create
That I can be saved
Everything ends
All that we have
Are we pretending
That moments can last?
What’s now behind us
Fading reminders
Misrepresented
Everything ends

You know you deserve better
Than this stagnant fester
You try to feel entitled
Get up
You’ve been too idle
We say it all the time
But this night will be different
We’ve said it once before
But this night will be different
We’re running out of tries
But this night will be different
We just have to ignore it
This night will be different
You know, to make tomorrow
You’ll need to drop your cargo
Your thoughts
Ruthless intrusion
Give up your hope delusion
We say it all the time
But this night will be different
We’ve said it once before
But this night will be different
We’re running out of tries
But this night will be different
We just have to ignore it
This night will be different

Do what you’re supposed to do
Pay what you’re supposed to pay
Don’t let them see the real you
Don’t let them see you make mistakes
Speak when you’re supposed to speak
Cry when you’re supposed to cry
Don’t let them know you’re free
Your secret when alone at night
They won’t understand
That you’re not in the band
Just follow with the plan
Acquiescence
Give what you’re supposed to give
Love who you’re supposed to love
Accept that it is what is
And let it carry you under
They won’t understand
That you’re not in the band
Just follow with the plan
Acquiescence
Acquiescence
Acquiescence
Acquiescence

The constant gravity
It’s pulling at me
It takes me away
It makes me afraid
I’m used to feeling off
Like I don’t belong
Like I’m never safe
Like I’m better off staying home
It follows me around
For time unbound
And when I’ve sung my last song
Will it follow me beyond?
I walk from the old me
A child unholy
Seeking asylum from things
Impossibly undone
It follows me around
For time unbound
And when I’ve sung my last song
Will it follow me beyond?
The constant gravity
The reeling from disease
The puppetmaster strings
False hope of liberty
It follows me around
For time unbound
And when I’ve sung my last song
Will it follow me beyond?

I need some shelter
I’ll be by myself
I can’t help it
It’s how I’ve always felt
There’s only one mind to misunderstand
It seems sometimes that’s all I can handle
Let me be a cloud floating by
Water flowing
Never slowing
Let me sleep now
Goodbye
Fragile meaning
Always leaving
Can’t let the world pass
My house of frosted glass
Questions you might ask
My answers will be lacking
I need to protect the ones who harmed me
Lasting effects of emotions starving
Let me be a cloud floating by
Water flowing
Never slowing
Let me sleep now
Goodbye
Fragile meaning
Always leaving
Let me sleep now
Goodbye
I’ll shake my shadows
Ending this magic show
It’s time to let go
Of words from long ago
It’s too isolating to be with others
Sick of operating undercover
I believe in everyone
And whenever I am wrong
It costs me pieces of myself
I’m running out of things to sell
I’m running out of things to sell
I’m running out of things to sell
