Manners so robotic
Once at peace so bitter
Patience is caving, tolerance left behind
Enough for one day
Getting so frantic, can't last forever
Why so neurotic? as if a favour
Play along, for you it's automatic
But you work every means to fall someway
So rub it till there's static
And count the times that you were wrong
For you it’s automatic
Lately I see that you are one sided
What set it off?
Mad, makes you tough, makes you rough
Sad, cause you have no proof
You reside outside my head

Can I ask this thing of you?
I won't ask for much
To relive a thing or two
Thoughts I may have lost
If I could fix you now and every heart you've touched
In these arms you felt alone
Clued in on what these times would bring
I'll leave, I'll run away
Where I will never be caught
Clearly no choice to follow through
Hope is still not enough
Companion to the cold
Take a long look at me now
Staring at ceiling corners
Light the candles here
Weep as you prove me wrong
I've not yet fallen
I never wanted this to be the prime of my years
Can I ask this thing of you?
Nothing preferred as much
Please just don't ever let me lose
No matter what the cost
An image of the past for you
Through this letterbox

Should have read all the signs, thought we had best of times
That had made me the fool, living it through and through
Now this soul's running free, did you know?
Don't feel the need to persuade you, Surfacing from this lie
I don't wanna free us, I don't wanna heal us
I will never cave in, I will never break
No bribe, you may be so bold
Just how low will you go?
Make it so, let’s just break it down
Enough with your stupid little secrets
Who do you think you are?
So let's just forget it, I've already left it
I just couldn't care 'bout your stupid little secrets
You, you're sensational, irreplaceable
I'm infected with your heart's gold
You, quite phenomenal, had me hooked right from the start
A firm hold
You, you're insatiable, unexplainable
I'm injected with this lie's cold
Here, I'm disposable
You never played your part, yet I’m still loathed
And when you're ready to go, I will have simply moved on
Now it's my turn to play, I’ve got nothing to prove
Like you’d know
Shielded from remarks you throw, you're just too late
My own butterfly has armed wings to testify

There’s no concern, you’ll reach out from the well
How you survive just beats the hell out of me
You’ll wait your turn, I’ll watch you fall back down
So you know the feeling
I’ve got the lead, I’ll fight you tooth and nail
You will not get a single thing out of me
Another tear, I know the story well
Push you away
I'm no victim to clutches of your lair
So ambitious, the brains behind this decay
I'm the dealer, I'll filter you, I swear
Trusted your lies that got me by a thousand times before
You’ll never learn, know there is no disguise
An open book that everyone can just read
Revenge is earned, I beat you fair and square
Now you know the feeling
What is the need, no intrigue in the air
It's what you'll get, there's nothing left but debris
I see that fear, I know the story well
Push you away
This chaos redefined
When dust settles, set the mark
Here comes the tide
So, just walk away from me
You’ll drown

Took the highest toll
Talk about a blow in the face
Set your bet, the dice keep rollin
Expect no warm embrace
Snapping, cursing, teeth are grinding, jolt
Go and play with needled dolls
Who are you? I just don't know
Sucker's road to pride
Oh finally feel like i'm alive
Rid me of all weaker ties
Seeds grew destruction with no self-restore
Greed from this treason, it's infectious to need
Fast pace on slow, made it to pro
Glare direct from the shroud
All seem to want it, freeze, need to stop it
A contradiction on rules
You know how to treat it, but you won’t hear it
There is no real way or how
Prone to let go
Those heroic vows you sow
It tastes like trouble from the spout
Well had I known
I wouldn’t have been so proud
These poor acts primordial

Starborn on the move
Let's just put our lives on hold for you
Starborn from above
Fake of all fakes, image booming
Psychologic gun
Starborn love, exhilarating
Raise the bar, new soul
Too long you've been tailing
part, tonight, alone
cause we'll never wait on you
Starborn has a groove
Questioning your torment through and through
Starborn has it tough
Find your online drama soothing
No damage here undone
Starborn love, exhilarating
Starborn love, already now, I see you run

Stylistic, idealistic, fold in and out
Take it on, can you take on all that power?
Realistic, pessimistic, it's always getting in the way
but It won't matter, we'll set the score
You're on your own
The mind's too eccentric
Marked as yours truly, rejected
A leader drone, fully disconnected
This poise is electric
So cryptic, unrealistic
Gone on too long
Latching on, climb summits to your tower
So mystic, optimistic
manage to get in the way
but It won't matter to me
no more.
Everything you say is poison
All that's good you must avoid
Kneeling for deceit you crafted
All you hear is master's voice
Stand alone, seems you've earned your own crown

Monsters

Locked in this state
Guarded by my sensors
So out of place
But made to be my home
You and i have to learn
You and i, watch with burning lenses
No doing's wrong
But you have senseless ways
Happy burial
Eat your heart out
Face is empty
Monsters have been found
Straps on the floor
A newfound way to hunt you
Without a trace
But hell, i warned you
Oh no, oh no
Now is no time to lose this war
Don't you dare take cover for me

Honey

Read through the list of my needs
A virtual tour do instead?
It's two ways electric
You leave me hanging
Such a dirty start
Free from all restraints soon
Full straight rounds
Tasting my honey while it's whole
Soon going back down
From said master
Sometimes, our movements slow
Sometimes, take breaks to feed
Now you need to be told
Frail eyes, no failed rise
Your acts of begging end
A time for sinning
