PREVAIL

Does it ever get better?
Does the back and forth reveal a victor?
A younger me might have known, 
that boy, he had a brighter glow.

These days I'm cynical and wearing thin,
sort of stretched, I'm losing the war within.
I've dug out my trench,
I've been calling for provisions.
Meanwhile, I fake a smile.

I don't want you to know.
This fight is mine alone.
I don't want you to know.
Let it go.

Fire!
Breach the walls!
Perfectly distracted.
Carefully crafted.
Sabotage.

I look across to the mirror,
haven't seen me in days.
Try to hide the fact that I'm not okay.
The truth is I'm a coward; Anxious and afraid.
Another battle lost because I don't know how to say.

I want you to know.
I can't do this on my own.
I don't want you to go.
Let me know.

Fire!
Breach the walls!
Perfectly distracted.
Carefully crafted.
Sabotage.

I know I'm wrong.
I'm worth more than I've led on.
4,400 days.

I know I'm wrong.
I'm worth more than I've led on.
4,400 days.

TAKE ME BACK

Take it back.
Take me way back when.
In the past when it seemed so simple.
Not a care for the rent in my head.
but it's gone, it's all gone.
Bring it back,
Pull it up from the memories,
Play it back like a film on TV,
It's like a dream, time passed too quickly
'cause it's gone, it's all gone. 

Think back to when we were just kids,
We knew it all, had it all locked in.
Planned it out, knew we'd go big.
Whole crew standin on business.
Meet all the boys back at the crib,
systems linked up, stayin up past 10.
speakers jacked up, gimme one more hit.
Chillin on the couch til the room was sunlit
Next day, it's back to the grind,
homework piled up, next test on my mind.
Tryin to figure out how to pass this time,
New girl in class, god damn she fine.
Try to pass a note to her friend
Heart on my sleeve, something could begin
Teacher's on the prowl got the note that I sent
Now I'm stuck in detention again   

Take it back.
Take me way back when.
In the past when it seemed so simple.
Not a care for the rent in my head.
but it's gone, it's all gone.
Bring it back,
Pull it up from the memories,
Play it back like a film on TV,
It's like a dream, time passed too quickly
'cause it's gone, it's all gone. 

Back to a desk full of bills due
Wonder what that girl been up to
It's been years now,
Fears drown. 
Here, now, I don't glow quite like I used to.
Worn down by the weight of the real world,  
Let down, mind running in circles.
Time tickin', didn't get here on purpose.
Dreamed better but life ain't perfect.
Reaching out, phone calls to the old crew
Reminisce, regret cause we fell through.
We'll get together, feel better like we used to.
Changed so much, you don't feel like the old you.
What was I thinkin',
got me drinkin', sippin', kickin' my ass
wishing life wasn't so cruel.
Fire up the old system, 
clean the disc and brush the dust,
turn the music past 10 and now I wanna

Take it back.
Take me way back when.
In the past when it seemed so simple.
Not a care for the rent in my head.
but it's gone, it's all gone.
Bring it back,
Pull it up from the memories,
Play it back like a film on TV,
It's like a dream, time passed too quickly
'cause it's gone, it's all gone. 

and you can't take it back
Forward flash, sort it out, parry that
bury your demons, close the door on the devil
The past is the past,
in the present make your future.
Remember that it happened,
don't resign to feeling nothing
you can't...

TAKE ME BACK

WISCO (For Slynx)

I wrote and performed everything.

The song is about my fear of time and wasting it but ultimately coming to terms with the fact that being paralyzed by that fear only creates a paradox of more wasted time. I think we can all relate to that in some way or another and I just wanted to share those feelings.


SMALL HANDS

Sing me to sleep,
I can't seem to get my mind off things.
Caught between a dream, and reality.
What makes the mind work?
Why is mine so different?
Teach me to cope.
Sing me to sleep.

Push it back, let it go.
The past has passed the present is home.
It's never so easy.
(Never so)
Turn the pages, slam the door.
I can't find what I've been looking for.

Paralyzed,
by the hands that guide our lives.
(Every minute wasted is a curse)
Time personified,
is the beast behind our eyes.
Breathe in the moment, take it slow,
this is all you'll ever know.

I've been thinking back to when it started,
digging deep into the past.
I don't like what I've found,
I think it's time to turn back.
But where is the exit?
The path is overgrown.
Lost in my own head,
losing control.

Paralyzed,
by the hands that guide our lives.
(Every minute wasted is a curse)
Time personified,
is the beast behind our eyes.
Breathe in the moment, take it slow,
this is all you'll ever know.

Small Hands.
You can't turn around.
Minutes wasted,
aren't wasted at all.

But still I'm...

Paralyzed,
by the hands that guide our lives.

SMALL HANDS

I'm sorry for the lazy fade out. I couldn't work on it anymore.

LYRICS:
Tell me everything you want
I'll keep all your little secrets
Everything you want

You're all I think I need and
I'll betray your trust whenever its convenient.

All I feel is lust.
Love gone.
Destined to repeat it,
feeding on your secrets.
I'm a filthy creature.

All that I said that I am.
All that you think I will be.
Fabricated.
Made up by the worst parts of me.

I'll be everything you want.
Follow me. Follow me.
I'll be everything you want.
Follow me. Follow me.

(Follow me)

Alarms should be ringing at the sound of my name.
The winds shift, warning of the tides I bring.
I am the harbinger of a lesson learned.
I'll take what I want,
and I'll leave you with nothing but the weight of my name on your heart.

Dissolve into me.
I'll be everything you want.
Doesn't it seem too perfect?
I'm under your skin.
You're wrapped around my fingers.
Entagled, you're falling a victim of desire.
I've got my teeth buried in you.

I'll be everything you want.
Follow me. Follow me.
I'll be everything you want.
Follow me. Follow me.

Nothing stays the same.
It erodes. Decays. It breaks. (4x)

(Nothing stays the same)
(It erodes. Decays. It breaks.)
I'll be everything you want.
Follow me.
(Nothing stays the same.)
(It erodes. Decays. It breaks.)
Everything you want.
