Sight to Frame

[No lyrics]

. . .


These day's occupations have noticeably
Paused in me
Anything is better than a wandering intention to find
Roots beneath ideals
I am searching on a binge of desperation
To throw these worries off my back
And leave a crack in your expectancy
In your expectancy
Look what you've made of me
You've made so much noise
That confusion has awaken in me
You have made me careless once again
And so again a buried hatred has risen
You have executed the innocent
Would life for you continue if mine stopped
Don't use the past to comment on
The present because
Tomorrow I'll do better than you've ever seen and
I will ignore the lines that you have drawn
For along them I could never walk upon
My will lies dead
Behind a door that's rusted
That's rusted shut
Don't blow the dust off of these old books
Because I'll choke again
And I can't predict if the air will clear
In time to catch my breath


. . .


Why, do I talk so
And it's your fault
You're the only one that breaks away
Your fault now
When we had fun, we had fun, we had fun
Everyday will become night and end without a change
We'll try still strong in chains
Urging the mind
To speak until weakness has been disarmed
You, I'll be back for you
We'll try, I'll find you
These midnight masquerades
Are still strong in their chains
It's the motion in our blood
That has since ran out of love
And it's so hard
When we've wasted all our youth on you
Wait for the same moon
We were smoking on a cold day's afternoon
In the same fire we'll soon untie
When it's over the scenes fall in two
When it's over the sun will be back for you
We'll soon, we will soon untie


. . .


Clothed by space
We are aware of this
And we can all agree that we are seen by the light
But I'm beat to death
By a well defined problem instead
Conscious we all ignore
Jeweler's eye view
Enlarge your hearts now
Enlarge your hearts and try so hard.
This tragedy, we take as we give
So you'll take a life tonight
In this eve you will ill deserve sun
Distinguish the black from white
The red from brown
Give all to make him see
Truthfulness and validity
Strength
We should give each other strength
When it's all recovered
Strength
We can give into another way to be


. . .


Unread reasoning stands on our heads
A red motivation has white virtues

But the mind and its sensibilities
Are not fitting comfortably in the skin
Do we retaliate or wait
Shall we send our sons away
Or just ignore this quick disguise
And hate most radiantly
Bare weakness to all things that we believe
Foundations can be shaken
Till' windows break
And soon your house falls down
Let it go let it go let it go, take no more

It's easy to find shelter in anger
In accordance with destructive expression
Obviously still learning
Take time, take reasoning, take anything
Till' you're completely qualified to think
Let better light lead

We should be wiser than our fathers
We should be learning from our history
So have we questioned our first response
And have we wiped all of the stains off of our hearts

Bare weakness, bear sorrow, bare true humility
For the best indure in peace


. . .


stop me before i go to waste
for every heart that's born
can easily be torn away
i can't comply
to this state of consciousness
that we call life
and though i stand here to perish
i will stand here till i die

stop me from making more mistakes
fallen friends have learned their lessons
fate their teachers taught them all to late
don't teach me to late
just hide me from my fate

as the dead raise two fingers
of bare bone in the sign of peace
and as a sing of hope
that we wont fail
we'll defy these things
we wont fail
we wont fail

everybody's greatness is relative
everybody's greatness is relative
to what this universe has put them here to do
to what this universe has
put them here to do
so as a sign of hope
so we wont fail
we'll defy these things
we wont fail
we wont fail


. . .


We call for all of those in need of hope
We call for all those to say
This is the day
So tell me how can
You shake hands with a clenched fist
And tell me how can
You bullet the blue sky

So how long
How long does it take
For offers to be made, long
[x2]

Call for us all
Call us to die
We'll never answer
You can't keep us under
And so you'll try to awake
Up from the days that you
Can't forget
Because baby you know
Baby you're so unforgettable


. . .


Riot and remember to take all that you can
As you shake to the floor
I'd give all to break your fall

To the angels up there, I don't care
And if I can prevent you from being here
I could say just let us live long
The innocent keep movin' on
As a second's so long
It lets a heart beat on
The guilty, the divide that unites
Your last salute in site
So what evils make us so afraid
It's impossible to handle it
Tear the pages from this ending

And the pendulum swings again
Off the end of gravity
Black out and fall
You black out and you fall

What do you do when the situation
Has passed the point of words
And in the well of tradition
The author of the day
Tears the pages of his own ending
Because only the guilty deserve to be punished
Oh why I
This day has gone too far
The fear is on its way


. . .


Knowing that as the days all crack
In the background of a life before my mind
Images of history
Would never show their fucking face again
Or even think of resurrection

How sorrow fills our hearts
How fears oppress our minds
No, I apologize
Scattered your voice
This must be the anniversary
Of the first time you decided to forget me
A celebration of an ending of trust

So break, destroy nineteen years
And maybe in nineteen more
We can do this all again
And unearth broken bodies
When i thought you were being true
You were just looking
At the reflection of yourself in my eyes
Could this be why we cry

So break, destroy nineteen years
And maybe in nineteen more
We can do this all again


. . .
