Personal Hell
03:58
|

Here you stand, beside yourself
The victim of your personal hell,
Now ear to ear you smile...
Was it worth it all the while?
Pictures, oh, could never say more,
About those thousand words you can't ignore,
Now here you shed your smile.
Was it worth it all the while?
Before too long, don't get me wrong,
Must you do this by yourself?
All to well to hear you fell victim to your personal hell.
For far too long, don't get me wrong,
Must you do this by yourself?
All to well to hear you fell victim to your personal hell.
You take your chair, you call your plea,
You brush this off so innocently,
Now ear to ear you smile...
Was it worth it all the while?
Silence hushes over the crowd, and
Suddenly your heart begins to pound,
Now here you shed your smile.
Was it worth it all the while?
Before too long, don't get me wrong,
Must you do this by yourself?
All to well to hear you fell victim to your personal hell.
For far too long, don't get me wrong,
Must you do this by yourself?
All to well to hear you fell victim to your personal hell.

Persuasive

My father was a simple man, yet he had a way with words my friend.
He told me that love will come some day.
But with those ten years gone, what could be right with this so wrong?
He swore to me it was just across the way.
I saw a gent with a cheshire grin, he promised that with bills in hand.
That they'll fall for what i say.
But then it occurred to me, that persuasive type of animosity,
That this was the deal, it stays.
I said tonight, fight or flight, nothing comes between the dark and light, save for fight or flight. Love is going to find us here tonight, save for fight or flight. Nothing comes between the dark and light, save for fight or flight. Love is going to find us here.
Underneath his trenchcoat lied the pen and paper for me to sign.
With a lifetime guarantee.
Beware my boy and choose your words, the likes of which that few have heard.
Is what you want still what it seems?
A simple phrase, a sentence tried, a matter of words they shall be mine.
At the low price of my soul.
The man he laughs now engulfed in flame. Heed the fear upon his name,
Lucifer, with eyes aglow.
I said tonight, fight or flight, nothing comes between the dark and light, save for fight or flight. Love is going to find us here tonight, save for fight or flight. Nothing comes between the dark and light, save for fight or flight. Love is going to find us here.
I said tonight, fight or flight, nothing comes between the dark and light, save for fight or flight. Love is going to find us here tonight, save for fight or flight. Nothing comes between the dark and light, save for fight or flight. Love is going to find us here.

I see the way that you will bargain for,
Some time well spent of your own accord.
To come back stronger, with health in mind.
You said your ever yearning for simpler times.
And again, I won't say that you're broken.
Those are words that I never have spoken.
And I won't say that you're perfect.
All's I know is you never deserved this,
Or I'm not one to blame,
But if, it's easier all the same.
Optimism is sobering,
That brand new world you're discovering
You said you're seeing life now through open doors,
That weight now lifted of unsettled scores.
And again, I won't say that you're broken.
Those are words that I never have spoken.
And I won't say that you're perfect.
All's I know is you never deserved this,
Or I'm not one to blame,
But if, it's easier all the same.
You got a lease on life, oh baby, a brand new try, and it's beautiful.
You got eyes on the prize, with baby, no more lies for you to show.
Life is strange in some peculiar ways, it's not just a game.
So reason with me, don't reject me, if it's easier,
If it's easier all the same.

Hands of Tyrants
04:23
|
|||
Do you dig the way that they groove?
You bitch and moan till their hearts content,
They, piss and whine, oh, to no extent.
They swear they know the truth.
Yet they offer no plan to sway an eager mind, instead they sit on their hands and they bide their time.
And they wait.
Till it's too late.
Pray for a meaning but with no intent,
The empty words of the malcontent.
They say, that some day,
That the hands of tyrants they'll show no remorse,
but they set no sails nor set nor course away.
Do you believe in what they do?
They pass their problems like they're innocent,
They blame the famous and the miscreants.
They swear they know the truth.
Yet they offer no plan to sway an eager mind, instead they sit on their hands and they bide their time.
And they wait.
Till it's too late.
Pray for a meaning but with no intent,
The empty words of the malcontent.

Onto Calmer Seas

Take a look at her serenity,
Those seeds of doubt insatiably caught in her eyes,
And she sees her fears materialize,
And assume the form of a tidal wave,
and crash on shore with a force so great,
Yet your faith will fly a narrow straight.

I said hold on close to me,
Chart a different course to be.
Onto calmer seas,
And your sanity.

Executioner

So you've come forewarned,
On how the tides have turned,
Say your prayers to me,
And safely set se la vie
The king then said off with his head,
Not one to defer, (said) the executioner.
Who said, off with his head,
Not one to defer, (said) the executioner
Beg and plead knave,
But not your life will save.
They say your time has come,
Enraging everyone.
The king then said off with his head,
Not one to defer, (said) the executioner.
Who said, off with his head,
Not one to defer, (said) the executioner
The king then said off with his head,
Not one to defer, (said) the executioner.
Who said, off with his head,
Not one to defer, (said) the executioner
People crawl the streets,
They drag you by your feet.
The austrian and the king of sun,
Revolucions won.
The king then said off with his head,
Not one to defer, (said) the executioner.
Who said, off with his head,
Not one to defer, (said) the executioner
The people said, off with their heads,
Not one to defer, said the executioner,
Who said, off with their heads,
Not one to defer, said the executioner.

Siren's Song
04:02
|

1, 2, 3, 4...
Came upon a narrow path, they say,
With signs long faded of forgotten past,
And I, don't think that we're alone.
The road ahead it wavered true,
So we marched on ahead, oh yeah, we powered through.
To venture through the unknown.
Forest woods a'thickening, with the
Ambient breeze and the wind a'whistling,
Yet still, you hear that call.
A heavy mist then sauntered in, and
The echoing voices of a thousand men,
Who fell victim to their thrall
You said you'd find love,
From some distant sky or some god above you.
Do you heed the siren's song?
You said you'd find love,
From some distant sky or some god above you.
Do you heed the siren's song?
Teeming to a rocky shore, with those
Endless miles of sea before us,
Yet still, you hear that voice.
Temptation sinking in,
What in the world were we thinking?
Do you see that we had no choice?
You said you'd find love,
From some distant sky or some god above you.
Do you heed the siren's song?
You said you'd find love,
From some distant sky or some god above you.
Do you heed the siren's song?
As it all had come to pass,
It was obvious now that i could never last,
Yet still, she sings her song.
One thing that she never said.
She never said she'd never love again,
So how does it feel to be wrong?
You said you'd find love,
From some distant sky or some god above you.
Do you heed the siren's song?
You said you'd find love,
From some distant sky or some god above you.
Do you heed the siren's song?

Rolling Stone

So, you've came upon,
Upon a rolling stone.
Cast out here alone.
You've sent, to roll downhill,
Striaght ever faster still,
If only for a thrill.
Can you make it to the break of dawn?
Just beyond the rising sun?
Cast no shadow unto Babylon,
Just beyond the rising sun.
Can you make it to the break of dawn?
Just beyond the rising sun?
Cast no shadow unto Babylon,
Just beyond the rising sun.
Save temptations you've sold,
Returning unto you tenfold.
Temptations you've sold.
Returning unto you.
Slow if you can, or you won't stand.
From the perspective of an honest man.
Slow if you can, or you won't stand.
From the perspective of an honest man.

Brother
02:21
|

Despite your claims, the fact remains,
That you and I are not the same, at all,
We're cut from a different cloth, yet
Hung to dry on a similiar line.
So brother won't you tell me.
The ebb the flow with hearts of gold,
The silver linings seem to fold, and lo
Behold what you claim to be,
Your different kind of rationality.
Oh brother won't you tell me
Why you think that you don't
Need a helping hand from time to time again,
But hey, they don't say.
The grass is greener but your hearts gone gray.
So brother will you please know,
That I am a stones throw away,
But hey, they don't say,
Your on your own the entire way.
You toss them down, the kings and crowns,
Like scattered ashes on the ground,
It seems, you gave up on
Every inkling remnant of your broken dreams.
So brother won't you tell me
You're living fast, you're living free,
A pretty corpse is all you'll leave,
When you drown your every sorrow in
Every glass that you ever see.
Oh brother won't you tell me
Why you think that you don't
Need a helping hand from time to time again,
But hey, they don't say.
The grass is greener but your hearts gone gray.
So brother will you please know,
That I am a stones throw away,
But hey, they don't say,
Your on your own the entire way.

Independence is never a commodity.
Everything still has it's price it seems.
You never show your hand not even when you fold.
When the money is gone your tell is told.
For all the life you seek,is just,
Simple glimpses of stories that you've told.
I never intended to question your integrity.
Whose to blame when things aren't always what they seem.
You never show your hand not even when you fold.
When the money is gone your tell is told.
For all the life you seek, is just,
Simple glimpses of stories that you've sold,
And it seems son, that you have none,
Living what you'd call fun,
For cash money, silver and gold.
And it seems son, you're just a smoking gun.
Ill fated in the long run,
For cash money, silver and gold.
Would you notice what you aspire to be.
Never a bright light have lit those streets.
The names and the games are the same, no matter what they say.
Evil smiles in a peculiar way.
For all the life you seek, is just,
Simple glimpses of stories that you've sold,
And it seems son, that you have none,
Living what you'd call fun,
For cash money, silver and gold.
And it seems son, you're just a smoking gun.
Ill fated in the long run,
For cash money, silver and gold.
And it seems son, that you have none,
Living what you'd call fun,
For cash money, silver and gold.

Oh, Creator
06:40

So absurd are life's obscurities.
Ever meant to be out of reach.
Still we turn our heads to the stars.
And try as we might we only reach so far.
Oh, creator, if you're out there.
Please show signs that you still care.
It seems, your people wonder where
They are in this world, in this life,
They face the fears of being here
Oh, creator, if you're out there.
The billions of people who call this place their home.
Unique in every way their own.
Above us all we share the sky,
The oceans and mountains far and wide.
Oh, creator, if you're out there.
Please show signs that you still care.
It seems, your people wonder where
They are in this world, in this life,
They face the fears of being here
Oh, creator, if you're out there.
You never stopped to wonder why--
Ever warring and taking lives--
What this world would want to be,
If the given life had spoke for the trees.
A struggle just to sleep at night,
With hungry children and fading lights.
Turn your backs with passive greed--
or help those all who are in need.
Oh, Creator we're left in doubt,
Haven't yet to figure it out.
An eye for an eye for a thousand lives,
Seen the hatred countless times.
Yet still we'll try, to get it right,
We won't give up and still we'll fight.
The earth is once the place we call home,
So let us fix the world we know.

Disasterland Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin
Disasterland is hard to nail down to a specific genre because of it’s interesting fusion of varying
influences.
The three piece band from Wisconsin incorporates bluesy-guitar riffs, silky smooth jazz-esque bass, thundering punk drums and a growling poetic vocalist melding into an almost progressive alternative rock. The dark concepts and cryptic writing leaves much to speculation.
