about

Don'be be afraid to go into new territory! Or to forget about the past!

lyrics

Live life like you're willing to die
If you've got an empty hand
you'd better feed it to your maker

High tides with only you and I
I'm gonna wait into the morning
til I drive you to your neighbor-

Hooded good, hiding like we should
Another "Red Riding Hood,"
Gonna make herself a fable

I know that the rips all tie to me, damn
I know that the rips all talk to me... Well what do you know?

In Syrian was given Siberian
A winter comes round
gonna hide in the hospital

Delirious? Or Written Illyrian?
The Greek States come down
Givin up satrapies

On Paektu, was given direct queue
Divinity is born
Blood is red as a communist

"It seems fine
But that wouldn't be right...
The famine - it is coming."

and that's all he said...

I'm living life like I'm willing to die
Cause I've got an empty heart
Someone stole it; made it vacant

Burning pause lost
Given the toss
and only thoughts are haunting me now

Another cause lost
Giving up docs
And only God is judging me now...
and weighing me out....

I'm serious! I've given up from weariness
And battling battles
They're raging deep inside of me
now
With war drums,
and giving up on lost loves,
You know hell will only make a home in these
Thoughts
I've got none
Well maybe only just one
Depressions a lesson gonna keep it deep inside of me
locked
Why rewind?
When Everything looks just fine?
Fuck the past don't let it eat inside your conscious

and....

Live your life like you're worth it and die
Cause you're not a petty soul
getting lost inside the masses

You're a star here -
growing afar,
fueled by blood all pouring throughout

We're of the same hive mind
and I can't deny
love is pulling us out

and bringing us down.
