Within These Walls

There’s a tale told within these walls
A substitute for meaning
Bleak story written byzantine
Time to break these chains of mine
(Take) Take back this flesh confinement
(Be) At peace with the beast inside
(Dictate) Your own needs and desires
(And grow) Before it’s too late
(Break free) No, I don’t want any part of this
(This) I’m reaching for the light
(Their hold) The shackles break if I learn from this
And escape this hell of mine
They’ve suffered enough for the scenes in my head
These visions of the broken
Spend every waking moment trying to decipher
What part of this is real or just a dream
I, I find this part of me trapped inside
There’s nowhere that I rather hide
Than behind the mask
Of another mistake that I denied
(Break free) No, I don’t want any part of this
(This) I’m reaching for the light
(Their hold) The shackles break if I learn from this
And escape this hell of mine
Now, ashes rain from the sky
The walls are broken
Stand tall
Become the monster and fight
There’s a tale told within these walls
A substitute for meaning
Bleak story written byzantine
Time to break these chains of mine
(Break free) No, I don’t want any part of this
(This) I’m reaching for the light
(Their hold) The shackles break if I learn from this
And escape this hell of mine
(Break free) No, I don’t want any part of this
(This) I’m reaching for the light
(Their hold) The shackles break and I learn from this
And escape this hell of mine
Oh, I don’t want any part of this
I’m reaching for the light
There’s a chance I can learn from this
And escape this hell of mine

Edge Of Forever

How can we crack these holds with only our heart
Crystalline manacles will tear us apart
Tempest blows hard tonight
Won’t stop us in our plight
To define supposition of an imposition of the writhen
(Snake eyes) You’re out of luck the chips have fallen
(Grip tight) To the shreds of reality and disavow
We, we’ll be the ones to break free
From this cage you wrapped around our sanity
You (you) delusional and sanctimonious
As you preach
We see you wrapped up in glitter and gold
Fashioned by a grand world of old
Incredulously bloomed
In your tomb
On the edge of forever we will take a bow
Together we have freed ourselves
Another chance for us to fly this wrought cage
Transcend the light
And now we are almost out of sight
Out of sight!
Always we’re made to last
This reconnection of our soul and body and mind
(Tighter) Dehumanizing for your pleasure
(Closer) So we can rip your fangs right out
We, we will bring devastation
Upon that thing you might have called life
You (you) delusions in the gaslight never seemed that bright
When we have two you have none
That’s what matters now
Hold on! Hold on!
Hold onto now and never let it go
Seed, the message early no way out now
Bleed, for a chosen and a better way
We stand in front of you with clenched fists, grazed wrists, broken wishes
The children torn and ripped to shreds to hear your last goodbye
Goodbye!
We, we’ll be the ones to break free
From this cage you wrapped around our sanity
You (you) delusions in the gaslight never seemed that bright
When we have two you have none
That’s what matters now
On the edge of forever we will take a bow
Together we have freed ourselves
Another chance for us to fly this wrought cage
Transcend the light
And now we are running out of time!
On the edge of forever we will take a bow
Together we have freed ourselves
Another chance for us to fly this wrought cage
Transcend the light
And now we are almost out of sight
We're almost out of sight!
We're almost out of sight!

O Dissimilate Destruct

A piece drenched in deep darkness and self destruction via a journey of self discovery and transformation.
lyrics
O, Dissimilate Destruct
by Olive Keswick Gallagher
It hurts as it fades
The mind it stalls and decays
It dwells on for all it’s worth
In that time between its death and rebirth
It pulls froth through all it feels
Old scars mean more than time past to heal
A fracture in this shadow of earth
A two faced doll to question your worth
Turn it over and then scream out in fear
Turn it over run and hide it for years
You were just a little creature scared alone and unexposed
In this tomb, I shall atone
But don’t you fear the end
You’ve died before it’s fine
You’ve made your choice right now
At least, you think that was you.
Behind the eyes
Escape with drugs boys pills and detest
Build a construct to fool all but the best
But you’re not sure who’s fooled who that clearly
I promise you twelve pills makes social life easier
FROM BEHIND THE EYES
They crawl their way out from cold earth
Their mind it flickers in flames
They break down for they’ve lost all their worth
In this field between their new life & pain
pulls all their strength from their feels
Old times mean less than scars now to heal
A fracture in this shadow of self
A two face person staring back at herself
She breaks down for it’s all too much
One more attempt no one here will care
There’s voices in there to quell
I promise you i’ve been seeing clearly
FROM BEHIND THE
EYES OF SOMEONE CLOSED AND SCARED AND
I THOUGHT I COULD LIVE AND DIE IN THIS MEMORY
BUT I GUESS I’M JUST CURSED ORDINARY
WE TRY SO HARD
TO CLOSE OURSELVES OFF AND BURN OUT OUR MINDS
AND WATCH OURSELVES GROW OLD AND WEARY
BUT I GUESS I’M JUST CURSED ORDINARY
MY SOUL NOW REFORMED
MY BRAIN BUT MATCHSTICK STRUCK
MY HEART'S IN TWO HELLS
PHOENIX RISE BUT PAST TIME STUCK
YOU THOUGHT YOU’D FIND YOURSELF AT BOTTLE END OR ROPE
BUT TURNS OUT ALL YOU’VE KILLED, WAS WHAT BLOCKED OUT ALL HOPE
RECLAIMED NOW SOUL REKINDLED
NO MOVE BUT QUEST TO HELP
TO UNDERSTAND NEW WORTH
WHILE HATE STILL SOWS MY EARTH
DISSIMILATE DESTRUCT
Fate Death Life Hate
Pain love growth and
What have you become that’s scary?
I GUESS I’M JUST CURSED ORDINARY
I Just Feel That
I wouldn’t get this far in theory
But here I am still breathing clearly
I GUESS I’M JUST CURSED ORDINARY
WHY HAS ALL THIS PAIN GONE THREW ME
YEARS AND YEARS I’VE LIED RIGHT TO ME
DEATH GET FUCKED I’M SUCK IN THIS MUCK
INSANITY NICELY SUITS ME
CELEBRATE THIS BLOOD AND GROWTH
I’M BROKEN BUT I’M HAPPY NOW

The Prophecy
04:39

Let's go!
Holding on, losing grip
The seams of life begin to rip
Stand and fight for yourself
For this revolution
To the machine we are fed
Birth to death we’re born and bred
Inside out, outside in
It's all much clearer now
Outnumbered, encumbered
With our backs against the wall
How the hell did we get here
Our backs against the wall
How the feeble have fallen
We rise up from the ground
We will never be kept down
There's too much at stake
There's nothing left to take
The writing’s on the wall
A reminder to us all
We've lost all we had
We're left with the scraps
You've got to carry on
You are benevolent
The saviour of souls
Now the future's in your hands
They stand tall, stand your ground
Pride is earned and seldom found
Know yourself, know your place
And faceless enemies
Outnumbered, encumbered
With their backs against the wall
How the tables have turned now
Their backs against the wall
How the mighty have fallen
We rise up from the ground
We will never be kept down
There's too much at stake
There's nothing left to take
The writing’s on the wall
A reminder to us all
We've lost all we had
We're left with the scraps
You've got to carry on
You are benevolent
The saviour of souls
Now the future's in your hands
We're bearing witness to
A world dismantling
We're powerless and doomed
Repeat the blunders of the past
You've got to carry on
You are benevolent
The slaughter of our souls
This future's in our hands
The wickedest of storms
And the heaviest of roars
The oceans breach the sand
The prophecy of man
We rise up from the ground
We will never be kept down
There's too much at stake
There's nothing left to take
The writing’s on the wall
A reminder to us all
We've lost all we had
We're left with the scraps
All we're left with is the scraps

Exist To Observe
03:59
|
|||
|
I'm out of time I'm out of space
Caught in a rip I can't escape
The only end is to transcend
The future’s what we make
On a raft of endless searching, capsized in the cosmic sea
Willing astral navigator, in the current of obscurity
A path of curiosity a quantum journey
Beholder witness me, these echoes guide us to release
Break down and reconceive, within the eye of the universe
I exist to observe
I feel the pull of the threads of time, watching as reality unwinds,
Embrace temporal asymmetry
As particles collide and cores ignite, a universe deprived of light
Strings now break and chaos takes its place
To construct to perceive design your new reality
Empires borne of bygone titans there is more than what we see
Vacant dark, the fireflies smoulder
Pendulum slows, the silence grows older
Reveal what exists beyond entropy
As I gaze into infinity
Become as one
Reclaim the stars
To construct (to construct), to perceive (to perceive)
Design your new reality
Empires borne of bygone titans
There's more than what we see
