EPT
(The Sky Is Falling)
The storm comes, like tears pouring
Over broken bottles, the days are warring
For the dirt
The lilies' delicacy, a white wedding
Like a little secret escape route, leaves me heading
For the dirt
Flying, the butterflies in my stomach, "Goodbye"
Swarming, buzzing with thoughts, each one of them a lie
For the dirt
The silence after the crescendo
Cause all we got is..
2. Streets
(Running, gasping, just need the next breath)
Footsteps against the concrete embrace
Almost comforting, but couldn't settle the pace
A heartless determination against stars and moons
Different type of damnation, wind whistling the same tunes
Chilled breath, frost against the leftovers of the sunset
Thinking long enough to make a memory hard to forget
But who cares, there's always the next night
Matter of fact there's plenty of them, no end in sight
(Run for your life)
3. Be Honest
Another night
Surrounded by the black lights
Lost, trying to fake flight
They always said be honest
Honesty says, life isn't august
Donning wax wings
Pulled strings
Could-be crowns of could-be kings
They always said be honest
Honesty says, life isn't august
Quiet in the court
Breath better cut short
Emotion's just a new fort
They always said be honest
Honesty says, life isn't august
It's the fall, with dark motives
It's the spring, with withered roses
It's the winter, it's all frozen
(I don't wanna feel)
(Breathes the wind stole
Gasps, with no soul)
Echoes, that pose as silent heroes
Amidst a minefield of all ones and zeroes
Where nothing's really real
But the lies are all honest
And the truth is not flawless
So blood, sweat and tears is, just another meal
A masterpiece, my midnight in glitter
Tasteless, but sometimes oh-so-bitter
4. For
For the loveless, because it always strays
For the dark, because it always stays
For the change, because it'll never come
For the question, because I know it sounds dumb
For the millions, because they'll never care
For the loneliness, because at least it's always there
For the pain, because I know it won't leave
For the ones, although I know you won't grieve
5. Fade
Dark- daydreams- broken- husk
Sun- daylight- fades to- dusk
(But then the colors die.)
Fight life or death to be buried in the greener grasses
Think we'll never miss, well, sometimes the train passes
Turning new leaves, but never change the branches
Sometimes it's better to see the world in rose-tinted glasses
Dark- daydreams- broken- husk
Sun- daylight- fades to- dusk
(But then the colors die.)
6. Rubber Bands
Running, gasping, just need the next breath
Falling to the heavens from depths
Maybe climbing to hell from heights
But every soul's got a price
The rubber band stamp
Like the mark of a prison camp
The eternal chase, just another seduction
With no grace, just another induction
7. Dark Sky
A blue sky, coated white lies-
But then the colors die. (But then the colors die.)
A dead canvas
A solemn glass, mirror and bone palace
With a throne made out of dreams better harvested
A crown mass-marketed
That's when I realized
The sky has to lie

As always, feel free to leave thoughts and criticisms.
Have a good day. That's all that matters, in the end.
