Chasing Salvation

What did you dream of in your youth How is it now that you’re getting old Doesn’t it look bleak from where you stand You never tried to see the light You thought that it would just come along Things haven’t work out how you planned And so it seems life passed you by The world it had no room for those who fail to try And after all it’s far too late You never tried to think it through And now you pay for your apathy Your hopes are long since at an end And so it seems life passed you by The world it had no room for those who fail to try And after all it’s far too late Doesn’t it look bleak from where you stand Things haven’t worked out how you planned Your hopes are long since at an end You find yourself your only friend And so it seems life passed you by The world it had no room for those who fail to try And after all it’s far too late Now here we are out in the rain No shelter so drown from your weakness You find yourself your only friend

There’s dark around you I don’t know what to do Aural stench, bruising vibe Immoral threat to our tribe It’s dark around you I don’t know what to do Aural stench, bruising vibe Immoral threat to our tribe It clouds my vision A karma incision Bitter sight tasting vile A brazen ego goes to trial Act out and change your ways Start now there’s only days Act out and change your ways Start now there’s only days No chance is that what you’re telling me You can’t change, your thoughts are a felony Too hard you’re locked up without a key Too bad your life has been misery No chance is that what you’re telling me You can’t change, your thoughts are a felony Too hard you’re locked up without a key Too bad your life has been misery It’s dark around you I don’t know what to do Aural stench, bruising vibe Immoral threat to our tribe

You’ve got a lot inside your head From all the crap you’re being fed Is it that you want to change yourself Or play the game for someone else Did you sit there and just believe Is your arrogance that naïve Your tunnel vision has no reprieve Shallow life when you self deceive Consume yourself in lies that you have nurtured from your fear Sit inside a shell afraid to share with death so near Anaemic and bulimic is the soul you tried to raise Alone the way you’re shone without a friend for all your days Consume yourself in lies that you have nurtured from your fear Sit inside a shell afraid to share with death so near Anaemic and bulimic is the soul you tried to raise Alone the way you’re shone without a friend for all your days When you finally see what you’ve done Your salvation has turned and run ----- Am I not what you want me to be Am I not what you expected to see I am the Jesus reincarnate I’m not a toy, did you think you could play With me there just isn’t a way Broken world when you fuck with the god of the sun Live your life in self submission Drink in hand and prohibition And you’ll try and you’ll die, don’t know why And you’ll try and you’ll die, don’t know why And you’ll try, don’t know why and you’ll die Walk with me Talk with me Then you’ll see You cannot, you will not be free Am I not what you want me to be Am I not what you expected to see I am the Jesus reincarnate I’m not a toy, did you think you could play With me there just isn’t a way Broken world when you fuck with the god of the sun

I took my medicine just like I was told Without my tolerance I’m out of control I cannot stand you I would not lie Won’t put up with the egos of those I despise Your story’s been told Your attitude’s old Why did you have to push me Are you really that bold? Your story’s been told Your attitude’s too damn old Why do you have to push me You‘re out of control You’re all just insects You’re only bugs I’ll take an AK to the shopping mall and fill you with slugs Your story’s been told Your attitude’s old Why did you have to push me Are you really that bold? Your story’s been told Your attitude’s too damn old Why do you have to push me I’m out of control Come to the edge Drop off the ledge And lose control Come feel the rift Jump off the cliff And cleanse your soul Come to the edge Drop off the ledge And lose control Come feel the rift Jump off the cliff And cleanse your soul Come to the edge Drop off the ledge And lose control Your story’s been told Your attitude’s too damn old Why do you have to push me I’m out of control You’re all pathetic You’re making me sick I wish you could see the darkness that’s making me tick

You didn’t care, you had a buzz You wouldn’t listen to the friends you know and trust You couldn’t think with your right head So now we suffer at the loss because you’re dead And I could tell just by your face That the barrister of rubbers had no case And we all knew just by her stance She made a hobby out of taking off her pants You always had to disapprove And it became your final move It never seemed to feel the same So now you’ve been pulled from the game You always had to disapprove And it became your final move It never seemed to feel the same So now you’ve been pulled from the game You were a dog, you were in heat So now the cemetery is the place we meet You down below, me up above You are a corpse because you wanted to make love We are gathered here to say goodbye and it’s a shame But the coach in the sky pulled you from the game You were a kind if stubborn friend But now you’re gone and that’s the end You always had to disapprove And it became your final move It never seemed to feel the same So now you’ve been pulled from the game You always had to disapprove And it became your final move It never seemed to feel the same So now you’ve been pulled from the game It was good sex, there is no doubt But now you’re knocking on the coffin to get out You never bargained but now you’ve paid Because right or wrong you were just dying to laid

Do you think you have your life in check It’s far from true You deny from every breath you take If it pleases you You shop the wardrobe of your life To see what’s right Dress yourself for a sunny day But now it’s night Unprepared for true reality, you’re feeling frail Unprotected Principality, you’re looking pale You’re employed without a salary, you’re bound by fail Don’t have hearing, say I preach Mock the meaning that I teach Building bridges with no feet But there’s no mercy in the street The eggs in your basket have slipped from your hands Unable to keep up with things that you should have done The train you’ve been riding is off of the tracks You reach for support and find nothing but backs The eggs in your basket have slipped from your hands Unable to keep up with things that you should have done The train you’ve been riding is off of the tracks You reach for support and find nothing but backs The eggs in your basket have slipped from your hands Unable to keep up with things that you should have done The train you’ve been riding is off of the tracks You reach for support and find nothing but backs The eggs in your basket have slipped from your hands Unable to keep up with things that you should have done The train you’ve been riding is off of the tracks You reach for support and find nothing but backs

I worship sand and stone The mother earth and I alone The mountains are flesh and bone Environment to call my own I see you technogreed And hear a voice of vicious creed Volcanoes start to bleed And the species sway with need I worship sand and stone The mother earth and I alone The mountains are flesh and bone Environment to call my own I see you technogreed And hear a voice of vicious creed Volcanoes start to bleed And the species sway with need Foreseeing ruined fate Against the trees that you hate Too soon it’s far too late To end the death you satiate Every day thousands of acres of rain forest are torn down in the name of technology, destroying endangered species and plants like the periwinkle flower, which holds the cure for some kinds of children’s leukaemia. Who gave us the right to destroy this planet? The trees are sick and tired Their patience has expired Sickened by this mess Homes made from their own flesh They de-bone us alive So the saplings can survive Stitching skin to skin A final unity of men They make us a bleeding dome To protect their only home To save the mother earth To pave way for the rebirth

I feel my resolve strengthen I se my arms lengthen I’m gonna shed my skin And fly away I’m gonna grow wings I’ve got to change things I need to grow inside And just move on I’ve got to get out There can be no doubt I need to change inside And just move on My resolve grows strong And my arms grow long I’ll rip my skin off And fly away So now you know I’ve got to go Already gone I’m moving on
