Die is Cast

Tell me what you really want
Transparency to guide the way
The confidence to go alone
Visor vision protocol
Tell me what you really see
Foregrounded focused imagery
The plausible conceit to try
Intuition no anxiety
Twisted with disdain, ready for impact
Sly smile portends the coming fallacy,
Is it malice or coverage, protecting the vision
Calculating the fallout of the coming decision
The time is now to decide the course
There is no choice, the die is cast
No mountains will move, nobody else cares
Alea iacta est, Alea iacta est
The time is now, point of no return
It’s irreversible, the die is cast
No mountains will move, nobody else cares
Alea iacta est, Alea iacta est
Tell me what you really hate
A double gap to trip you up
Remunerate the road ahead
Bluster over earnesty
Tell me what you really need
Foundation forged no mysteries
Interrogate and underscore
Removing all uncertainty

Collapse the Space

Why pause to let them, they only slow you down
Why pause to let them, they only slow you down
Avoid the spin and carry on
Walk past the crash and don’t look down
Others will stop it’s surely fine
Convince yourself it will be alright
All grown up a temper tantrum, unbecoming and infantile
It happens more and more, It’s spreading day by day
You should know just how things work, undistinguished and undeserved
It’s growing continually, it develops in every way
Why pause to let them, they only slow you down
Why pause to let them, they only slow you down
Disenfranchisement is no excuse, no justification or willingness
It happens more and more, It’s spreading day by day
There is nothing to extenuate, self-centered in marbled light
It’s growing continually, it develops in every way
Start over again, raise the glass, open the door, collapse the space

Read the Room

I’m not going to say, I’m not going to say
Don’t want to find out the score,
Close the door and lock it tight
Don’t sell me that bill of goods,
Take the time to let it sink
Don’t try to relay this tomb
Read the room extrapolate
Don’t believe a word you say
Close the door turn off the lights
I can’t tell you want you want to hear
I can’t find the trouble in it all
I don’t have the knowledge to compare
I forgot to tell them all goodbye
Tell me again I want to see the difference

Why Try

It’s about potential or the lack there
Look around you see the failure, broken promises
They try to hide it with a smile or a wave
But if you look inside you can see the show they put on for themselves
Their friends and the people they aspire to be
No negotiating no meeting halfway
The win intoxicates and controls it’s a trap
Fleeting is the feeling of a job well done
The hunger never fades, just grows with the game
It’s a joke, it’s a lie, one more time, why we try

Flashlight

Far and wide, the lies never die
Take the plunge, make up your mind
I’m going to find out what’s in store
It can’t wait another day
Tales of woe and bravery
Exaggerated endlessly
It’s not that hard to see inside
A veneer of desperation blinds
Tales of strife and misery
Exaggerated endlessly
Grab the tail, hold it well, flash the light, hold the line
