The Fall of the Copper Queen We’re the last bastion of sanity In a world that’s gone fucking crazy When they realize that we were right along, Will it be too late To neutralize hate To tear down the wall To vomit out the chemical candy they feed to the kids? Can this land be reclaimed after what they did? Or when the dust and the blood rise… Will it never fall? Spreading across the sky A thousand birds of prey The barrier grown so high We’re claustrophobic Trapped inside a mind we made Shrinking in a mind decayed We’re shaking We’re breaking now Who will take her place To drown the sins we’ve seen Will it wash away our face When no one’s hands are clean Everybody run We knew the day would come The tidal wave it brings It’s the fall of the Copper Queen They can burn it down They can use its name Pretend the counterfeit’s the same Try to blind our eyes Numb our fears This stupor’s grown over months and years We chose a hand to raise We chose a hand to hold We warn of end of days With flames and bullet holes And the blood pours from the inside Spilling from wounds we can’t hide Til we’re drowning in the flow And there’s nowhere left to go.

Shadowstars 05:03
Shadowstars The shadow stars that pulled me in Took me too far to darkened heaven A constellation you can’t name Arranged itself, shaping blame A galaxy of infamy The stormy blue that held the sky For me and you was always dry Could not deny How the orbit turned the tide Brought out what lived inside Revolution around the sun Melts confusion; I’ve only begun To see what’s elemental or accidental Making the sun rise over shadow stars I found the ground was greener than It seemed before that Sunday when We feared the end Then the orbit turned the tide

Swallow 04:10
That first bite always tastes like something real Thick and sweet the satisfaction that we feel So well disguised the poison Unrecognized the reason Only time will reveal They tried to feed us something I can't swallow They tried to lead us to a trained tomorrow And once it's in the blood distorted days are all we see We cannot get enough, and we follow where they lead To candy-coated sweet believing, til our decayed hearts stop beating. I'd rather starve; my lean and hungry mind is clear Won’t be a part of a banquet made of fear Their heartless harvest growing sparser year by year

End My Life 04:09
End my Life There are only snipers Waiting for my skin No heart is open To hide me in I tread upon vipers Let the teeth sink in Venom and vengeance Can never win Chorus: Come end my life Will it bring you peace? Bear your knife and give relief It come to me, sets me free, You'll be here alone, on fire So come end my life. False fantasies of me Fill your mind How it would be If I'd stay in line Cold revelations Harden your soul Things that I gave him You'll never hold Chorus Here I stand the constant prey You think I'm alive this way?

Epilogue 04:28
Epilogue And the day comes like the one before Not like the lightning bolt that we were waiting for And the night always promises more But now we’ve lived, and now we know It’s only another tomorrow The glass with no bottom The sun with no horizon All the chapters long forgotten All the mysteries misbegotten now We’ve been raised on fairy tales Never thinking villains often win When the lies and feelings fail And the happy ever after turns grim That’s when life can begin again. Then the time comes Like the times before Not like the final curtain at the end of the show The glass with no bottom The sun with no horizon All the chapters long forgotten All the mysteries misbegotten now We’ve been raised on fairy tales Never thinking villains often win When the lies and feelings fail And the happy ever after turns grim That’s when life can begin again. Here on the last page We’re in the last stage The stark white beyond the end We’re living in an epilogue.
