You’re dreams were made out of dollars You’re pockets empty of love Oh lord capitalism has become your god Fill up your bags with money you owe Give up those passions that felt like home So you can live with energy clean and disease free A place to waste away far from what your neighbors think You met them in your T.V. every fucking day you’re scared and insecure You grew up in a world where risk does not involve action You’re dreams were made out of dollars You’re pockets empty of love Oh lord capitalism has become your god I will never be ashamed of having less Full hands caused by empty trends Book another trip The bags under your eyes are weighed down by debt Crunching numbers to make ends meet It frustrates you day by day it’s all the same shit I see the true colours single file around me They see each other as grey but its true colours haunt me Is this natural? Generations hurting for support No work ethic no settlements No way to carry the load Ice hits my flesh we cannot look back This is a dream we made for ourselves Willing to fight it hopefully one day we can build it Curse to free others from this binding Living in a home you take for granted You sold your soul for a better world Open your eyes and watch your possessions slowly burn I will be the man to show you the realm You’re stuck in the same repeat We can break it together and change this foundation With our hands tied down we change the world With love and compassion for the greater good

You are an everlasting scent you are the type of mystery I will never forget You are fucking beautiful I hope this makes sense So here it is No excuses just you and me We don’t need to worry as long as we heal Life’s a pearl sand molded into something more Life is worth it just show the light I’ve been lost with out you no end in sight Take care of her when i’m gone Reasons keep changing can you keep it straight Im still trying to change starting to get this right But i’m never cold I do not have to be lost in this cloud anymore No excuses just you and me bear We don’t need to worry as long as we heal life is worth it you’ve shown me the light I would be lost without your friendship in sight We're all gears in the machine just waiting to break Still unto death we wont suffer again and i’ve said a little far too much trying to make sense of this The pride of what you’ve accomplished is whats at stake
if you don’t have any pride left i suggest you leave I say fuck this i’m giving up i’m throwing in the towel now i’m done and i can not live another day wondering if you feel alive 

If you feel alive i’ve said a little far too much trying to make sense of this Here we go a little bit too far moulding me into the one you need You make me feel alive

As a child I never knew, I believed they were cloud machines That could whisk away the burns for days Loving this moment stuck in this phase Shaping a change, a change in my game Giving to mother earth is how I see it played To a day where I have all I need Searching for justice diminishing our greed I will not sit here for four fucking hours I’ll get off my ass and I’ll take a cold shower My mind best thinks numb, slows down and I solve them Forget all these problems, forget all my problems Recreate the limits Shift to a realm that is far from this hell Create your own culture a story to tell My heart is swelling inside of me; do I know what I need? Or do I just need to be happy? One day I will fill this hole that’s inside of me (inside of me) And if it ever reappears my passions will bring me back to my feet
 Wake up you’re okay I came over cause I heard you're troubled 
 Push, live for the struggle 

 I will fade beneath the clouds, never look down 
I will fade beneath the clouds 
 I will fall between the clouds, consume the smoke and I’ll never look down Too many horrors keeping me aground I’m not a dreamer I just let you down But I’m sick and jaded of this world by jaded I mean I fucking hate it But I really hope to change it Recreate the limits Shift to a realm that is far from this hell Create your on culture a story to tell Live for the struggle

What are those life struggles that you must tell Because you have none, your life is empty and is hell It is hell; give me a chance to breathe a chance to just believe Social mechanics fine-tune you to their every need Just a gear in the masses part of time draining machine Dreams dead, distinction bleeds this isn’t our conspiracy Banks will fall your cars will rot It still won’t place passion in that filthy heart Just another mall you’ve built brick by brick You’re tearing roots out of the earth to serve the capitalists All coins weigh the fucking same Falling to the depths Of this obscenity Reaching for the stars Oh I never asked for this I just want to live in a place with no cries or shouts And I’ll never fucking have to read about it Just let me be (I have thought) Please let me be (Just a worthless opinion) Just let me run Just let me Let us run free Falling to the depths reaching for the stars Falling to the depths Reaching for the stars Like a child that breaths for the very first time we will find a release A chance to finally breathe A chance to just be Dreams dead, distinction bleeds

Thirty Below 03:28
Father, Sister, Brother Come closer to me I miss you all; it’s been so hard since you have been gone I gave myself into a mindset both grey and empty Regretting my existence and giving up on family The only thing left was isolation I did not know this would infect my soul for the world to see Brother when you’re old enough to hear won’t you listen? Loud and clear Let them get the fuck over themselves There are too many pieces to put together all by ourselves Negative thirty has never been so cold Brother you’re not alone I may be scared but at least what I feel is real We can’t sustain this any longer Born from stars and left for dust Because in the end you and I are scum Because what we are is nothing more than dust Collected from stars left to rot and rust I love you I couldn’t ask for more I’ve been treading circles on this empty globe and I know it won’t be easy being me It won’t be easy feeling missed I may be scared but at least what I feel is real We can’t sustain this any longer Because what we are is nothing more than stars Left to rot and rust amongst those above
 We'll never fucking be missed 
 Let them get the fuck over themselves There are too many pieces to put together all by ourselves Negative thirty has never been so fucking cold Brother you’re not alone
