i've got a pocket full of reckoning and i can't wait to share it can you hear that day a beckoning? oh, you will soon, i swear it thought i would crumble and fall? you really don't know me at all doesn't matter how long it takes it's coming sooner or later... the day that we get right twisted minds secured my omission was it worth the crooked price of admission? well, i'm tellin' you we're gonna get straight and you're not gonna like it... the day that we get right

Alienation 02:56
before you preach to me your policy, stop and think we are not here by ourselves you just might rethink your beliefs if you could see we are everybody else ...we are not alone we expect our things, project our ways, behind demoacracy entitled, wouldn't you say? in our chauvinistic ways...we isolate, seperate look what we've become: an island to the world ...we are not alone i don't care about where they're from what lines were drawn or the side they're on it doesn't matter what skin they don everyone here's an alien i couldn't care about where your from the flag you wave or your native son there's no such thing as americans everyone here's an alien oh, colony... set us free... save us from dichotomy...

Fate 03:33
it could've been a monday instead i could've been at home in my bed sleeping dreaming of a life that i just missed you could've met a man worth meeting good enough to let you forget me deserving of a life that i once left our vow could've been unwritten another love lost to the spectrum but it wasn't... i don't know how we came here it must be fate
5.
Thief 04:00
stop, thief give it back to me what's supposed to be what you stole from me return it what you took from him what you've slighted him make it right again ...and give it back then you can go to hell enough's enough give it back to us what was meant for us what you've robbed us of give it back then get away from here get away from us get away from me get away from him you go straight to hell

The Garden 04:18
there's nothin but blue skies in your eyes won't you tend my garden, love? so full of sunshine and surprise and we're just getting started, love... see the innocence drip from your face what was left was taken and replaced feel my stomach tremble as i quake my garden.... you were filling holes i was in your garden not a soul was told i was in your garden i was in the garden pulling flowers from your bed i lay down in, uproot your inner sense in bloom, I leave the room with you, forever... i was digging holes i was in the garden doing what was told i was in your garden i was in the garden you were filling holes reaping what you sowed digging in your soil i was so alone i was in your garden

Kutting Cord 02:13
what can i do? what can i say? can’t bloody move without you crowding the way how can you live with yourself acting like this? well you should be shamed but you think it’s okay still, not your fucking dog not your dress up doll and i’m not you… hey, could you gimmie a break? get the hell out my face let me make my own way i’m so tired and sick of all you have to say i’m not a pawn for you to play you lie to keep your promises your arrogance: a pestilence … i sever (what can i do?) your tether (what can i do?) seems like all my choices are up to... (kutting cord) what makes you think my choices are up to... (kutting cord) how could you think my choices are up to you?! i don’t want to be you...

come love, give us closure i've lost all composure i've been pacing for days lost in leg propulsion intractable convulsions you're my one saving grace relax rigidity and mute this symphony that drives me mad i'm crazy for you, love cos you love me and my crazy come, hush the storm in me i'm soaked in anarchy it's always calm when you're near my damned insanities you'd be right to leave but you're still here i'm crazy for you, love cos you love me and my crazy it's a funny sensation i finally got something right how are we still relation? have you completely gone and lost your mind? well, it happens to me all the time

My Iceberg 03:15
it's easy to abandon it but impossible to leave i'm careful not to damage it in my efforts to appease and keep it's disadvantages hidden where i... i can show you just enough the rest i keep below maybe it's anatomy or maybe just my soul and the more that i submerge the less i have to know the reasons why i love myself the reasons why i don't i can bed it but it seldom rests when it rests it seldom sleeps it keeps me out in front of them but always at their feet and after it's been nice and fed it leaves me on my knees how i heed how i feed how i please how i need my iceberg
10.
It's You 03:32
i've been thinkin' 'bout my life lately, angie how have i made it through? countless times i survived my intentions but left all else abused yeah, there's nothing to confess you know that i'm a mess yet still, it's me you choose i'm nothing more than a wreck in progress how am i still any use? it's you ... it's you, and only you short of you, it's devine intervention but god knows, i've cut him loose there can be only one explanation for how i'm still any use how could i ever need you more? how could i've been so wrong before? what would i ever leave you for? you're everything that's good
