Though you can give no more
Inspiring false security I've got the reason to alter belief Selfish paintings diamonds mutilate You can't erase the way I'm unappreciated But I can't sleep tonight Embrace of the drink Be hollow swallow the pain Splitting the field All the noise agitates The stars have not aligned In your favor Cross the line of obscenity Look to find a way To love all the past promises To keep you washed away Sever the ties Broken by the black and white Now fade away Laid in the ground Were lost far beyond the clouds Staring in the darks of hell It's me Along the edge of belief A heart always in the stars Will never fade Decay in the ground Were lost far beyond the clouds Pray in the dark for now Prey on the sounds And silence the darks around Reach for a spark of doubt Alive 02. The Walk Music by Periphery Lyrics by Periphery, Chris Barretto
Reach into the void
Touch the heart of darkness Reach for the light Feel the hand of god The uncertainty of my existence Can be decided by choice of a path I must walk So sick monotone culprit Come on down and we'll talk about it Bow down to the gods Or keep on walking further On the cusp of our enlightenment We march With the sun at my back I take my first step outside shading my thoughts And perceptions Done from the truth I'll never run Be it the light or the shadow I walk in hand with all Born of nothing My thoughts are unconditional And I despise the facade of the original martyr Deep within the void Higher Searching for the light We leave this world behind The violent twisting of the fates The eminent collapse of our current state 03. Letter Experiment Music by Periphery Lyrics by Periphery, Chris Barretto, Casey Sabol
Flashing eyes of heat
Vessel through the deep By the son of night Unclean Charon Fear becomes belief for those cannot pay the fee A coin to board the fleet Or one hundred years disease Row But the line it never fades The story is bound to unfold in the end Love of mine, gone forever Say goodbye to the sky Bound by time Enter the ride Absently I will be Motivate fortune Can't escape from the arms of death Along the shore many faces accumulate In preparation for the underworld Single file ghost by ghost The deck fills up to embark on the final sail Alone we rise and fall Awaiting the day A life coalesced Deep in the silence our fate entwine Create and consciously free the mind So far from where I lost my soul Depart, implore, divine In our minds adventure is always listening Just stay here The world isn't always listening Disappear Suffer in endless doubt Holding on to the memories as they fade away These thoughts and sorrows will not remain One day we'll meet again In time beyond the end 04. Jetpacks Was Yes! Music by Periphery Lyrics by Periphery, Matt Murphy
These walls of time release
My eyes move like the drift The cries, they resonate within The fabric tears before me break ties between the kin Reaching for a way out of this dream I waste my breath ascending Fears lead me astray The past brings them to be What's left to carry me... But a memory The dream endures these lies Forever at the edge left surviving alone What's left as I wander I've found a world where I am free Inside that which is truth The ground upon which I have grown is not the same The fears they've fallen away Presently I've found I am not alone In a world of infinity sewn Perceive beyond the seam A soul evolves as well 05. Light Music by Periphery Lyrics by Periphery, Chris Barretto
In sunshine's view
The absence of love Behold what's blinding you Serpent or dove Between uncertainty Tethered wings and captive dreams aren't worth the suffering Open your eyes Devotion deprived Deny the very thing that you've accepted this life is about Listen to my words Defy devotion Sick from the fall behind the wall I demand of you stand up and see Before they saw what I was becoming Before it kept me from reaching.... The light Can't seem to understand it Can't seem to know Listen to this vacant soul The child has lost its way Tension Suffering the hole Something against me I won't try Never again I will not remember Between the lines I sing with doubt Behind this will fall Lost in night and day Breathing for me Listen to the way I enter the world In time this lie will become me The things I've done to forget my dying senses Weary from this act alone In vein six days away Return from the fall Just find a ray of light to help me ascend That is the only way 06. All New Materials Music by Periphery Lyrics by Periphery, Chris Barretto
Moments lost searching for a dream that's real
From my heart I'd give it all away just to know Drifting away In truth revealed With perfect order life repeating endlessly Light streaming from below This life is reborn From the shadow to the light Moving through the time It's a cycle that repeats Now Forever Don't touch the spinning wheel Risking all of progression just for a little taste But it's so natural Call it human if you wish to save face Losing control Go with the flow Get swept in the undertow Where do we go You ask in simple question Let me show you Give me your hand and we shall fly Seeing all from infant eyes Moving all through time It's a cycle that repeats Into better days for dreams 07. Buttersnips Music by Periphery Lyrics by Periphery, Chris Barretto
Repose
Flesh of the ground deny Kneel and grieve Beseeching to no avail Myth strikes our being Human existence Jaded by its progress Feeding, a manifest of the shadow Redefine the absolute Crashing down Through their eyes One can see Fear sustained Weakened by their minds Caught in disbelief Don't deny All shall see Vacant souls Shaping commonality In this moment we cannot deny what we are Form a memory on turning wings And carve a way to ascension Pray, withdrawn you just weep, Alone, Wait for a chance to grow Culture folds The falling of love The darkness above Repose within our numbers Walking with a taste Transposed image of being Lost beyond the frame, end of days This time all memories surpass Embrace In time all sense of life decays Descend Again All shall return to the sand through forever We cycle again Re-ignite Savior ablaze Never ending Return to me 08. Icarus Lives! Music by Periphery Lyrics by Periphery, Casey Sabol
Believe in memories to resurrect me
Besieged by falling dreams Hold them tightly Adorn my wings to thee, and use them nightly I'm neither angel nor a demon spawn Though some will call me god Gravity is just a law I've wrought Hear temptation take the sky for all to see Sheer elation to write in history I'm neither angel nor a demon spawn Though some will call me god Gravity is just a feeble plot When I said I'd never kneel again What I really meant Was pull the pin because time is spent Unite with ravens on their shadow flights As my nocturnal right Gravity is just a mortals vice When I said I'd never feel or see Love and sight are last resorts for me 09. Totla Mad Music by Periphery Lyrics by Periphery, Chris Barretto
Strip away all the excess components
Unveil a picture one sought to hide Personalities are like fiction The derivative truth but with no substance Violence and hate Nourishment territory and mate We are the product of some experiment While most live in ignorance Some can't accept The last thing we see is obsession, depth of insanity Follow the source into the ground Feeling all vibration flow inside of you We create the sound Like the fathers long before us We've forgotten how Sun down Swiftly a less passive creature emerges Mark the august steps We'll shine the way Still the path remains the same Some may find their own way Forever like me, thirst for a pool of consistency Catch a bug for knowledge and the structure comes down A counter intuitive attack Speak no evil and watch it flourish in a current state of madness 10. Ow My Feelings Music by Periphery Lyrics by Periphery, Chris Barretto
Lost the way
Feel the world below me Painlessly ascend Torn away dissolving the life I know Grasp the light Feel the glow enfolding Exaltation Isolate the answers and truth from lies Loss of faith The path unravels before me Unholy day I'm letting go Void the past, create the new Separate the few because I hold ability to lead astray Now living through every day on the path between the frozen lines Now no one ever will know about this experience Will someone for once step back And gaze upon this world through my eyes Drawn behind the point of view Seal us from the truth On our own the fear of life decays Time alone reveals our fatal aspect of arrogance In life we're not the only ones Free from the walls I'm alive Lost the way The path unravels before me Unholy day I'm letting go Through time these cries distort the view Hopeless misdirection We all defy the chance to know This world is not the one I knew Holding tight to our beliefs Awake to what we have become 11. Zyglrox Music by Periphery Lyrics by Periphery, Chris Barretto
Contest to modern theory
Incapable of any progress Analyzed, developed Imitating consciousness At least what it seems to be Uniform and unveiling the machine Cut off The silent space Cut off The sense of space I'm aware of ancient myths That signal to our coming Time waits For none to come The dying age of these Of these feeble beings is closing What should we do with their lives Forgive them for trespassing Spare them termination Or let them die Touched by the hand of the creator Tantalizing the will of the maker Subject to a wide array of thoughts emotions Held by this rationality Worlds collide No peace of mind Consciously evolving Conceived in machines Separated by perception of these dreams Elevate this warped sense of reality I can't understand myself The edge of existence holds What we all have feared We curse your creation Die by our hands in vain 12. Racecar Music by Periphery Lyrics by Periphery, Chris Barretto
Freedom beyond our control
Partition, they break out in endless stride I'm on the floor in travail Faithful days fall Memories hold Free my soul Seeking within The curtain call Fleeing our fate Every step now recalled Down the drive Staying so close Retraction weighs my soul We are thunder We are all the space in tow Now again This happening My handle is honest calculation Free of the pain Seeking the glow We both need it so Time will give way Time will formulate Seeking within The curtain call Fleeing our fate Every step evolved Don't deny Staying so close Creation is our goal Discretion, the only thing that made me incomplete Cast the sail, just to spin this fate Cross the empty sect in flight Pleasant memories Redefine all that's left The sound, it makes me scream I can hear your voice at night (Your light lost in a waking dream within) Freedom is not of control Endless the chase, pushing through I'm so engulfed Falling to strain, but I still persist I'd like to paint this tapestry With our blood To represent the symmetry Finding a sickened result of possibility Refuse the violent source and pain that made you Left to deny that it will change with no solitude Let us take this train Leaving the form, stretching far beyond what I can see Chasing the race Left to compete My revelation Reaction creates the fall Realize These are broken words Shattered thoughts amend See beyond the only present road Just let go Counsel to ascend See beyond the only present hold Let go Cannot comprehend Leave it all to find a moments love I am Working to be Complete No more adversity Growing consciously My revelation Reaction is not the call Rely on my new self Rising on my own Sage advice, embrace wisdom Hang the past Take the helm Fashion a new future to live In your flame I see regret I've awakened To feel a piece of distant pasts harmony How could I not see Possibilities and unlimited passion Hello luminescent being Walking outside of my last identity Celebrate For in the end We will meet inequality I see light I see light in your eyes |
