Golden Rust 03:58
Heaviness fills your head The capillaries burst, your skin grows red So I’ll begin devising plans To rid you of that undeserving man If up to me, you’d wear the crown But you’ll take it down Its gold will rust You’ll bury it beneath you as it gathers dust Royal fate In the woods You ran from him Both legs gave out, the wolves, they ate your limbs And with last breaths Now whispering Sounds of “Sleep, perchance to dream” If up to me, you’d wear the crown But you’ll take it down Its gold will rust You’ll bury it beneath you as it gathers dust And the jewels will fade It’s judgement day And I”m not there beside you in the end So hear, here is the schism you’ve been dreaming right now rings out the final words When you laid it down Oh, that golden rust Was buried there beneath you Lined with painful dust and ten feet under ground How is that schism you’d been dreaming? The lights fade out and then our story ends

Although you play it off The pounding in your chest How they’d write you off When sensing your own death But you can’t do that This pain is in your head Well I’m coming back And for once I can see it To end all the wrongs, it’s best just to beat it Then wait it out I’ll tell you something That I learned late one morning When rising from sleep and the rain started pouring Here, starts it out: Best the bet you know That the gamble is the the whole And you’re crawling out, crawling out Fighting for control Of the body, mind, the soul Then you’ll knock it out, knock it out I was told by someone that “You never can console thoughts of inner doubt” Figured out, that I’ve been been getting old And that weight that bogs and tolls is the mental clout Well now that I’m back I can finally see it I’m done with the yawning The longing for sleep And they’ll tear up the papers They’ll throw out the pills This here is a tale of The clinical years That were sorted out

Mexico 04:01
I sit and think of circumstance It follows me to sleep If it’s said that time is of the essence How can you not see the hourglass grow weak It cracks inside, it breaks then it leaks I heard a tale of great regret A man stood at the door As she left there was no laughter Just silence, nothing more His years came to an end Still trapped inside was “What could have been?” Do you take a chance and go? Are you scared of what’s in store? For timing is key I drove all night to Mexico And as I fought off sleep In the distance sound an ancient voice That bellowed every street As chills spread through the bone I caught my breath, enlisted my speech “I’ve never felt at ease before But out here in the deep Desolate land I can’t claim my own I’m figuring out what’s real” And now unmistakably I feel release wash over and clean Do you take a chance and go? Are you scared of what’s in store? For timing is key I’ll take a chance on loneliness I’ll wait it out and win Now I know that somewhere out there Lies a soul whose souls’ my twin And in some poetic dream I’ll fall asleep Wake up without need Do you take a chance and go? Are you scared of what’s in store? For timing is key When every dream is fighting you ‘Till the end Through every scene

Wrung out, once again Shattered defeat I once was witnessing bliss then Fell to my knees I was an easy ploy So what’s left? Nights when I’m driving away I’ll stop and think about it As you lay down your head Is it filled with regret? Give up on that feeling The “haven’t you” bit And I”ll sit back reminiscing Missing all this I was an easy ploy So what’s next? All my fears Come to me in dreams So I know When it’s eating me within As you lay down your head Is it filled with regret? Is your life laid out Like the pictures you’ve seen?
