Looking good
Feeling good
Looking good
To feel good
This never ending flood of goods
It's more than we'll ever use
Or ever could
Blood on your hands
Blood on your feet
Blood dripping from the cracked skull of a woman you’ll never see
Who suffers
Who suffers for fashion?
Savar, Tazreen
Where'd you get those
High waisted jeans
Lahor, Karachi
Where’d you get those
Brand new sneaks?
A life of suffering
For
Our life of ease
They live to please,
They live to please
Tired hands
Overseas
All our slaves
We won't see

Precious Decade
05:46
|

Everything you wanted
Everything you dreamed
Everything you thought this life could be
Everything you thought you’d see
Don’t know how to feel how you want to
Seeing what these sacred days turn in to
You’re still the same
It’s all just the same
All the hopes you held for this precious decade
And it just came and went
It came and went
Helpless as this body fades
Mine are now numbered days
We come and go
One more life
To just come and go
Don’t know how to feel how you want to
Seeing what these sacred days turn in to
You’re still the same
It’s all just the same
We just come and go,
We just come and go
You’re still trying though
We just come and go
Where’d the time go?

What Hands

What Hands
Draw the lines
Beside these once youthful eyes
What hands
Fold this face over itself
And won’t let it go
What hands
Fill the bags beneath
These once hopeful eyes
What can
These hands
Do
To hold them
Not a thing
Not a thing
Such devastation as a life passes through
The obscuration of the makings of you
Some day this all will end
What hands
Make gray
What was once gold
What hands
Make this familiar sight
Ever
Unrecognizable
What is this?
Such devastation as a life passes through
The obscuration of the makings of you
Some day this will all this end?

Gilded Hour Lyrics
A foolhardy feeling of belong
Drapes about me
All of my thoughts dissolve
My mind is gone
Let this life pass through me
In the gilded hour I’m blind
With the sun in my eyes I’m fine
All feels right beneath this blanket of light
In the quiet of this peaceful evening
A simple being, no need for meaning
I let go my self
and enjoy the fleeting peace
In the gilded hour I’m blind
With the sun in my eyes I’m fine

Acorn Moon

Hide somewhere beneath the acorn moon
Everything and nothing to do
Lie alone here in my room
Bare chest and it’s half past noon
Here nor there,
Between the two
What I want and what I want to want to
Here nor there,
Between the two
Life takes some getting used to
Some self proclaimed reason to be
Is all there is to sustain me
And in that void, that vacancy
It’s my voice that answers me
Here nor there,
Between the two
What I want and what I want to want to
Here nor there,
Between the two
Life takes some getting used to
Some days it’s just hard to be
And I give in, admit defeat
Then I dust the crumbs off the sheets,
Close my eyes
Go back to sleep
Here nor there,
Between the two
What I want and what I want to want to
Here nor there,
Between the two
Life takes some getting used to

Long before all the days unkind
There was no one else, not another
Now my eyes seem to steer my mind
You’ve become one among others
My will can’t stop the time
My will can’t ease this mind
There’s nothing more I could ask for
I know,
I know
And he knows
I won’t reconcile the divide between my heart and mind
I’ve watched it grow with the lines in my face
So I need to try to let go of you
After all we had
And she knows
After all we had,
After all we had

In this photo I see you
And my body right there next to you
We’re some place, somewhere
I’m sure I’ve never been to
All that made me
Who I was and have been to you
Is but a fading mist
I cant hold on to
Together, but alone
As I ease into the unknown
How long until I don’t
recognize you?
I promise to love you
As long as I remember to

Endless Choice Lyrics
Chance has spared you
The life they’re bound to
Supply chains
16 hour day
6 day week
An unimaginable life
See the cost of all we consume
Such brutality for fabricated needs
Endless choice and the unseen behind it
Endless choice means they’re denied it
We keep it up, keep it up, keep it up
What do you need?
See the glut engulfing you
And the bulwark that won’t let feeling through
How many must suffer for the few,
Seam by seam, screw by screw
wasting, toiling for the new?
Is it worth it?
Are they worth it?
Only chance has spared you
The life they’re bound to

Hazy Demons
05:16
|
|||
Can’t let it be the way it is
Can’t see what’s here
Or let it in
Always fixed on getting there, so rarely here
Knowing there’s no knowing how long I’m here
What holds this anxious heart?
What holds these roving eyes?
What holds this restless mind?
It’s unrelenting
Hazy Demons of these fantasies
Cloud my vision, won’t let me see
Sights of a life I’ll never lead
Sights of a self I’ll never be
Can’t see the love surrounding me
Won’t see a life in its entirety
