Trilogy Lyrics
[Intro: Garrett Russell]
No
[Verse 1: Garrett Russell]
Static, static
There's no rest for a machine
Only circles and lines in my binary mind
I fade to static
Harvesting synapses in my dreams
I breathe, choke, let it go
But the fear never left when I slept alone
So I'm fading to static in the disconnect
[Chorus: Thomas Freckleton]
Now I know it's delusion
In love with the slow demise
[Post-Chorus: Thomas Freckleton]
We're all numb in the hum of progress
[Verse 2: Garrett Russell]
Borrowed light, a parasite
I fed on the dusk and hid myself from the night
And we don't speak, we barely hear
I watched you watch me disappear
As I'm fading to static in the disconnect
[Chorus: Thomas Freckleton]
Now I know it's delusion
In love with our slow demise
Be still and human
Breathe in and be consumed
[Bridge: Garrett Russell]
It's always red, the static in my head
It's always red, the static in my head
It's always red, the static in my head
It's always red, the static in my head
[Breakdown: Garrett Russell]
Return to the hands of time
There's nothing human in this room of white
Be still as the noise divides us
Be still as the noise divides us
Panopticon Lyrics
[Intro: Thomas Freckleton & Garrett Russell]
(Safe in your silicon shell)
(A cell in a server: silent observer)
(Staring at solitude eyes)
(Green and unblinking: the thought before thinking)
Panopticon
[Verse 1: Garrett Russell]
Analog heart flat-lined and digitized
A shell for a skull and a body to commodify
Under the light, we survive inside this between
But we lose ourselves and retreat to screens, retreat to screens, retreat to screens
[Pre-Chorus: Thomas Freckleton & Garrett Russell]
("Our name is legion")
("We outnumber the stars")
("We have come to absolve you")
They see all, but we see one
[Chorus: Garrett Russell]
Shut down the system, burn away the veil
What waits? A face behind a face behind a face
Reverse the network, burn away the veil
And you'll find a face behind a face behind a face
[Post-Chorus: Garrett Russell]
All the lies, we’re pulling cables from our spines
[Verse 2: Garrett Russell]
The culture is charged, amplified, then polarized
But our nerves are dulled and our souls lobotomized
We sleep with pixels in a dream machine
But we lose ourselves and retreat to screens, retreat to screens, retreat to screens
[Chorus: Garrett Russell]
Shut down the system, burn away the veil
What waits? A face behind a face behind a face
Reverse the network, burn away the veil
And you'll find a face behind a face behind a face
[Outro: Garrett Russell]
Unto us, a program is born
Holy virus, taker of the Earth
Alive, as a Housefire Lyrics
[Verse 1: Garrett Russell]
Identical America: The beautiful land of control
See the cages
Freedom/Fiction
Hear the fascist or ask yourself
"Will my anesthetized half-lies still suffice to stifle what life we hoard till we die?"
We hide in the guise of benevolence until the system burns (Burn, burn, burn)
A system built by subjection (Burn, burn, burn)
Must change or face insurrection
[Verse 2: Garrett Russell]
They found you in your skin
They've come to take you in
So take a ride, come insidе, they have stars for making stripes
Swеrving left and stealing rights, they've only come to take your life
[Verse 3: Garrett Russell]
The only remedy
Is solidarity
And now I know the death of my pride is the cost of peace
[Chorus: Garrett Russell & Mitch Stark]
Cold as the empire that stole away your breath (Stole away your breath)
Long as the history they poured inside your chest (Poured inside your chest)
Revenant, you're louder than the sound (Love overcomes)
Revenant, no grave can hold you down
"Follow me, my son, we're just strangers leaving Babylon"
[Chorus 2: Garrett Russell & Mitch Stark]
Cold as the empire that stole away your breath (Stole away your breath)
Long as the history, they poured inside your chest (Poured inside your chest)
Revenant, you're louder than the sound (Love overcomes)
Revenant, no grave can hold you down
We're only shadows till we walk into the sun (Walk into the sun)
And they're only tyrants until love overcomes
[Outro: Garrett Russell]
Fuck the system
Fuck the system
Fuck the system
Fuck the system
Fuck the system
Break the prism
Fuck the system
Fuck the system
Terminal Lyrics
[Intro: Garrett Russell]
The hourglass is vacant, sand turns to medication
You can fill me, but I'll never be full
I'm slipping to sedation, the seconds are contagious
Can you tell me if I'm terminal?
[Verse 1: Mitchell Stark]
Idle hands and naked hearts
What sleeps in our skin, waiting to tear us apart?
I count the pills, you count the time
There's never enough, never enough to change my mind
[Pre-Chorus: Garrett Russell]
Don't look back, Sea of the Dead
I turned to salt in a hospital bed
I'm shaking hands with stillborn clocks
I'll stare to the East until time stops
[Chorus: Mitchell Stark & Thomas Freckleton]
All these pills won't scratch the surface if the cancer's in my soul
Am I terminal?
Every day is an anesthetic, dying young just to grow old
In this terminal
[Verse 2: Mitchell Stark]
Holy wars, a choir of swords
Sing us back to the desert into the dust of before
Tie me down, inhale the key
Pure as smoke in your sacred fantasy
[Chorus: Mitchell Stark & Thomas Freckleton]
All these pills won't scratch the surface if the cancer's in my soul
Am I terminal?
Every day is an anesthetic, dying young just to grow old
In this terminal
[Bridge: Garrett Russell]
Burn the forest for the splinters
Medicate the witch in me
Drop the bomb and make it winter
Take my hand like surgery
Fly away, you're white as snow
We only return when there's nowhere to go
We only return when there's nowhere to go
There's nowhere to go in this terminal
[Chorus: Mitchell Stark & Thomas Freckleton, Garrett Russell]
All these pills won't scratch the surface if the cancer's in my soul
Am I terminal?
All these pills won't scratch the surface if the cancer's in my soul
Am I terminal?
Every day is an anesthetic, dying young just to grow old
In this terminal
[Outro: Garrett Russell, Mitchell Stark & Thomas Freckleton]
Don't look back, Sea of the Dead
I turned to salt in a hospital bed
I'm shaking hands with stillborn clocks
In this terminal
Burn the forest for the splinters
Medicate the witch in me
Drop the bomb and make it winter
In this terminal
Iridescent Lyrics
10 ContributorsIridescent LyricsThey're gonna come for us, to make us pure as bleach and permanent
Sterile as the sheets under watchful filaments that won’t go out
And if you felt a flickering that was just my doubt
I found no space for faith between the rise and fall of your heart on LCD’s
Formaldehyde, I’m dying inside, once brave now petrified
We watched the veil descend again as wires were grafted into your skin
Intubated, you spoke with your eyes
The burning stare that kept me alive now calls to me, to let you collapse
I brace for the end as we fade to black
When the hospital dissolves and every storm reaches resolve
I’ll find you there, past the fog: Iridescent
As the moon waved her goodbyes I saw you in a thousand lights
Eternity, in a moment: Iridescent
So pull me back through the nightmare
I’d rather be fragile than forever alone
So pull me back through the nightmare
I'd rather be fragile than forever, live forever, alone
How can I be strong enough to let you go?
Burning through a patchwork sky, you left on chariots of fire
I only know that you will go
Where only love can bring you home
