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

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
