Pitfall

Yesterday I sat still for 3 hours
And I've got nothing to show for it
Even if ya got the balls to ask how
Sad to say I wouldn't have an answer prepared
Living still life: Empty, resolute
Catch yourself in the pitfall
Breathing statue, this is easy
You waste your life
Yesterday I walked alone in the dark
And I felt brave just because it was dangerous
Take what I can do with little regard
Take care of yourself, set the fear aside
Living shadow: Terror, casual
Catch yourself in the pitfall
Blinded travels, oh so easy
You waste your life

Pulling pressure
Burns an image onto my eyes
Staring, my mouth agape
Wind whipping my mind to another place
And as the sequined skies come alive
And shimmer as our stars align,
The fingers of the world close in
And as the world is pulling me sideways,
The sound is driving me forward
Searing epiphanies
Unsolvable thoughts paired with faulty memory
Everything I know has gone away
Stories left untold
My novels unbound with a long-dead lettering
And as the sequined skies come alive,
And shimmer as our stars align
The fingers of the world close in
And as the world is pulling me sideways,
The sound is driving me forward
A pulsing light wavering from left to right
A simple trance for a simple mind
A thrilling prize concealing the venom inside
Momentary chance to take back what's always been mine
Their voice is my telescope
Life in 3/4 is lived in squares
And the rhythm, it tugs at my throat

Free Weight

Relax - wait
Play - waste
Enjoy - distract
Fear - motive
It’s just a constant escape
Get locked into the free weight
Straighten up to lean into the bend
Cloud the mind to clear the shit from your head
Free yourself
Cause the reflection's gone and the mirror's cracked
Do whatever it takes, keep your life intact

Living is Stupid

Drowning in a past mistake
Like you can correct a memory
You spare yourself from scrutiny,
You're desperate like you wanna be
Ohhh the curse of youth
Lips that can't spit honesty
Can't pump out a single thing worthy of listening
I'm lost on the concept of effortlessness
I didn't mean to lie
We can't be our own alibi
No
It will never come untied
The fool stares back at a face,
One to keep close and mutilate
Though the cut's never wide enough
For the thoughts to come spilling through
They want to be genuine
But they're far too tangled up inside
For the knots to ever come loose
Come loose, come loose
Come loose, come loooooooose
I didn't mean to lie
We can't be our own alibi
No
It will never come untied

Overneath recommends:
Beyond the Fleeting Gales
by Crying
Vibrant and vaguely nostalgic rock that gleams with blinding levels of fun and inspiration. Serious COVID record.
go to album
Riffs and tone fer days. Rarely does metal in this vein get me emotional like the passage leading up to the solo on "Iron Temple". These dudes deserve your attention if you dig metal with some grit.
