Mass Hysteria

There's a knock at the door 24/7
Break and entering my space
There's a loss of hope and belief in heaven
Choose your own reality
Mass Hysteria
There's a lack of empathy and kindness
Sweeping through society
Coupled with for-profit anguish
Controlling what you hear and see
Mass Hysteria

I was told that it cures all wounds but it doesn't
It just creeps along day by day
Idle hands pointing out all my defects
While the face stares down, wasting away
Dig deep down in the depths of depression
And I'm climbing through a never-ending hole
Bite the hand that feeds the oppression
Time is a killer that we all know
Time is a killer disease
We can't escape
Time is a killer
Zero survival rate
Time is a killer
Release my mind in the end
You can resist but it will only persist
Cause time is your only friend
If you try to put it off
It will only show
Lurking in the shadows at the scene of the crime
Time is a killer that we all know

The Pieces

Everybody wants to act as if we are alright
When it's worse than ever
We are spitting on the graves of those who did fight
To make things better
We turn and run away from problems like we've got none
For worse or better
Everything around us suffers from this problem
But sooner or later
We will pay, for our stay
This is all a part of the pieces
We live our lives making mistakes
And we don't think twice, before messing with life
When we lay our heads down at night
Drastic heating is melting down the ice caps
Into the water
Mother nature isn't drunk enough, she needs a nightcap
At least that's how we treat her
Polar bears are cooling off, they need a heater
So let's melt the continent
Get away with spilling oil into the water
With legal affiliates
I will pay, for my stay
This is all a part of the pieces
We live our lives making mistakes
And we don't think twice, before messing with life
When we lay our heads down at night

Trampled

Desperate feelings are ordinary
Revving and engine that's close to empty
Thoughts, my own worst enemy
Trampled by hopes of satisfaction
Held back by self-destruction
Dreams are better for optimism
Revenge is a pill swallowed with precision
Time, my own worst enemy
Trampled by hopes of satisfaction
Held back by self-destruction

Brighter The Future

I've got my back firmly pressed against the wall
But I know that it's how you get up and face it all
These walls are closing in and I don't think I am sturdy, No
The foundation is crumbling, and I don't think I am ready, No
I don't know
Darker the past, brighter the future
Gotta get away, yeah,
Gotta get away, yeah
Brighter the future
I've got my feet stepping out into the shadow
I must believe that I don't have to climb these steps alone
This burden weighs me down and I don't think I am sturdy, No
I've reached capacity and I don't think I am ready, No
I don't know
