Lyrics


1. TIMELESS

Is this what it's like to shed your skin
To be reborn?
Adrift in a sea of noise
Unable to remember what came before
The fragments replay but they're out of place
My voice, distant, like a stand-in just out of frame
The fragments replay but they're out of place

I would paint you a picture of the sky on fire
But the colors escape my mind
Finding vibrance in monochrome
And life through wires
Projections in black and white
Projections in black and white

Is this what it's like to feel serene
And unaware?
Like silhouettes on celluloid
We're timeless but oh so impermanent
(Oh, so impermanent)
Becoming blurs in the negatives
(Oh, so impermanent)
But I swear to God that we're timeless

I would paint you a picture of the sky on fire
But the colors escape my mind
Finding vibrance in monochrome
And life through wires
Projections in black and white

I would paint you a picture of the sky on fire
But the colors escape my mind
Finding vibrance in monochrome
And life through wires
Projections in black and white

(Projections in black and white
I swear to God that we're timeless)


2. OBSOLETE

Obsolete

For a thousand days I watched the vultures circle overhead
And I counted the ways the world would be blessed when I finally reached my end
And I felt the weight of the world pushing me into the soil below
And I felt the desert sun above, while I tried to drink water from a stone
But I'm not ready to die alone

So can you wake me from my sleep
And show me now that this is just a dream?
'Cause I'm a whisper, once a scream
And I'm afraid of what's in store for me
Becoming obsolete

Become obsolete
Become obsolete

Another frozen frame, another glitch inside my consciousness
So I pick my poison and just choke it down until I start to spin
And while the world just slowly turns, I fade like fog into the sea
While the mighty galleon burns around me, I slowly start to sink

Maybe I'm not ready to be set free
Maybe these shackles are what I need
If you find the answers, come rescue me
But I can't hold my breath

So can you wake me from my sleep
And show me now that this is just a dream?
'Cause I'm a whisper, once a scream
And I'm afraid of what's in store for me
Becoming obsolete

So can you wake me from my sleep
And show me now that this is just a dream?
'Cause I'm a whisper, once a scream
And I'm afraid of what's in store for me
Becoming obsolete

Become obsolete
Become obsolete
Become obsolete
Become obsolete


3. ANCHOR

Tepid waves
Of trepidation covering me
As if to provide
A moment of clarity

What lies ahead
Is it another unfolding travesty again?
I'm searching for substance
But I don't even fit into my own skin

You spoke of a world full of purpose
As I choked down every single lie
'Til I sank all the way to the bottom
With a heavy heart like an anchor deep inside

And it's dragging me down
Down
Down
Down

You state your case
But the words fall like broken mirrors
And shifting the blame
Won't provide another place to hide

What lies ahead
Is it another misguided, sad, and failed attempt?
I'm searching for anything
But I haven't even seen the sun in days

You spoke of a world full of purpose
As I choked down every single lie
'Til I sank all the way to the bottom
With a heavy heart like an anchor deep inside

You spoke of a world full of purpose
As I choked down every single lie
'Til I sank all the way to the bottom
With a heavy heart like an anchor deep inside

And it's dragging me down
Down
Down
Down
