Do not abandon
Do not abandon

Do justly, now
Love mercy, now
Walk humbly, now

Do not abandon
Do not abandon

Small acts of kindness
Justice
And humility
Make a difference

Do not abandon
Do not abandon

Do justly, now
Love mercy, now
Walk humbly, now

Do not abandon
Do not abandon

Small acts of kindness
Justice
And humility
Make a difference

Do not abandon
Do not abandon

Do justly, now
Love mercy, now
Walk humbly, now

Do not abandon
Do not abandon

Each step matters
Positive actions
Contribute to a greater whole

Do not abandon
Do not abandon
Do not abandon
Do not abandon

Do justly, now
Love mercy, now
Walk humbly, now

Do not abandon
Do not abandon
Do not abandon
Do not abandon

Do not abandon

Do Not Abandon

[Verse 1]
Well my head is off to war again
My heart's fucked off down the drain
My stomach's sitting on the fence
My ears are falling deaf, again
But there's a symphony of senses
You can smell the rot
My skin is on the edges
While my lungs sit there and watch

[Chorus]
Who do you need me to be?
What do you need me to say?
All these voices in my head
They're never gonna go away
And to be honest I'm pretty lonely
so I'll invite them to stay
my brain fell down the drain again
but I promise I'm okay

[Verse 2]
Well my heart is gone for good this time
This organ is an ugly thing
I can only hear a distant chime
don't wanna hear the lovebirds sing
So I’ll take my head for a walk
My friend
I'll even let you lead the way
I'll follow you to the bitter end
If you tell me there's another way 
That there's a way to fix the state I'm in
It's probably all just pretend
but i lost my head down the drain again
And I’m starting to notice a trend

[Chorus]
Who do you need me to be?
What do you need me to say?
All these voices in my head
They're never gonna go away
And to be honest I'm pretty lonely
so I'll invite them to stay
my brain fell down the drain again
but I promise I'm okay

[Bridge]
We can feel it coming on like a landslide
The slippery edge
And the in-between
I don't wanna be the bad guy
But you don't know the things we've seen

[Final Chorus]
Who do you need me to be?
What do you need me to say?
All these voices in my head
They're never gonna go away
And to be honest I'm pretty lonely
so I'll invite them to stay
my brain fell down the drain again
but I promise I'll be okay

Head-Loss (feat. All Wick No Wax)

[Verse 1]
That song —
it wrote itself one night,
was it punk or was it light?
Rhymes just fell like meteors,
scattered stars on open doors.

[Pre-Chorus]
Under twin suns, I heard a voice,
echoes in the cosmic noise…

⸻

[Chorus / Refrén]
🌌
Don’t go into the lighthouse,
even if the light calls out.
In the void, you’re not alone —
but the beacon’s not your home.
Don’t go into the lighthouse,
some truths you’re not meant to know…

⸻

[Verse 2]
In a ship lost in the dark,
no one sees your fading spark.
You’re the captain of your flight,
but the stars won’t steer you right.

[Bridge]
Orbiting with silent grace,
around a ghost in outer space.
You feel the pull, the sirens cry,
but not all lights are meant to guide.

⸻

[Chorus / Refrén – repeat]
🌌
Don’t go into the lighthouse,
even if the light calls out.
In the void, you’re not alone —
but the beacon’s not your home.
Don’t go into the lighthouse,
you’re stronger if you let it go…

⸻

[Instrumental Intermezzo – guitar solo + bass groove]

⸻

[Outro / Refrain – minimal, whispered or falsetto]
🌌
Don’t go…
Don’t go…
into the lighthouse.
Don’t go…

Everybody Get in Line
