The Wonder Years Are Over

Local Void

Anybody in there 
Remotely aware 
We’re fleeting 
Time and space meeting 
Each dimension chasing the sun
Round and round we run 

Anybody in there
Anybody out there 
Anybody in there 
Anybody out there 

Stars and darkness 
Racing to the edge
Black holes and wonder 
Over and under
The energy we ride
To the other side

Each dimension chasing the sun 
Round and round we run
The energy we ride
To the other side

Anybody in there
Anybody out there
Anybody in there
Anybody out there - - Norris

Local Void

Fascism (Treasonous Bastard)

Like a thief in the night
Creeping under moonlight
A sickness blows in
Makes monsters of men 
They take and take 
Leave death in their wake
Funny how they scream their name 
Pass all the blame 
To the imaginary
Invisible adversary

Fascism 
Creates it chasm 
A neoplasm 
Fascism 
(Is a sneaky bastard)
Fascism 
(Is a sneaky bastard)
Fascism 

Line up and face the wall
Learn to love your thrall
Wear its mark on your flag
Even your body bag
March to their insane dance
In a wild eyed trance 
Madness is contagious 
Especially one fallacious 
It’s a shame where it took us 
Downright treasonous 

Like a thief in the night
Creeping under moonlight
A sickness blows in
Makes monsters of men 

Fascism
(Is a sneaky bastard)
Fascism 
Creates it chasm 
A neoplasm

The Magic City

The moon hangs low
Buildings aglow
The past echoes 
Chills me to my toes
A train whistles in the distance 
Reminds me existence
Is fleeting
Body and soul meeting

Here in the magic city
Hollow is as pretty
As the sunrise
Tearing open the night sky

The streets like veins 
Lives changing lanes
Lost in the mundane
Of the days, hope we feign
Flesh and bone
Steel and stone
A dream will roam 
But it will find its way back home 

Here we are now
Somehow
Frozen 
In this moment
The past echoes
Chills me to my toes 
Reminds me existence is fleeting 
Body and soul meeting

Here in the magic city
Hollow is as pretty
As the sunrise
Tearing open the night sky

The Magic City

Burn

If they won’t give us what we earned
Then let this motherfucker burn
We mapped the world
And survived a harbor named pearl
And yesterday
Still calls
From far away
Laughing at us all

Let this motherfucker burn
For the ones who died
With their life on the line
We were on their mind
Now it’s our turn
Let this motherfucker burn

They fought for a dream
And we let it leave
So easy
And they still can’t see
The demise
Imminent as a sunrise 
You have to fight
For what’s right

They can’t take our pride
No one makes it out alive
So draw the line
And into the battle we’ll ride
Let this motherfucker burn
Let this motherfucker burn 

Let this motherfucker burn
For the ones who died
With their life on the line
We were on their mind
Now it’s our turn
Let this motherfucker burn - - Norris

Pure Crazy (The Apple Never Falls Far From The Tree)

Yeah I did some stupid shit in my day
But I ain’t done half the shit they say
Make sure when you lie about me
To include how you’re pure crazy
You see
The apple never falls far from the tree

You just can’t tell the whole story
That’d mean you’d lose all the glory
So you perpetuate a fantasy
A warped reality 
Yeah, I made myself a fool
But I was never intentionally cruel

I guess it pays to be sneaky
When you’re so damn easy 
It’s fucking shady (shady)

If you believe the charade
If you’re so afraid 
Why did you always come around 
All the places I could be found it’s pure crazy (you see)
The apple never falls far from the tree

Pure crazy 
Pure crazy - - Norris

The American Way

Keep em hopeless and empty
Sell pain a plenty 
Sow fear so they fight
Black against the white
Starve the poor
So the rich can have more

Haul my shell away
I forgot to obey
The American way

Bullets and bombs in the sky
Killers in their suit and tie
Wolves eating the sheep
Love has been put to sleep
Generations built on depravity
Cold and empty thoracic cavity

How bout instead of banning books
We lock up the fucking crooks
Try to save the earth
Before they let it burn

Haul my shell away 
I forgot to obey 
The American way - - Norris

Lost In Time

We Are The Ghosts

I’m here I’m there
I’m everywhere 
It seems
Tearing the seams
Near and far
On a star
When they collide
I go for a ride

We are the ghosts 
Entertaining the hosts

When I dream
The light beam
Sways into the void
The fabric’s destroyed 
I wake again
As it caves in
Familiar yet strange
Noticeable change 

Revealing itself
Revealing itself

When they collide
I go for a ride
Searching for the signs
Chasing timelines 
When the wave bends
It ends

We are the ghosts 
Entertaining the hosts - -Norris

We Are The Ghosts

Shine Again

Can’t seem to find
A place to hide
Just need some light
To shine, to shine

I know it will 
I can just feel
All the same chills
All that it steals

Behold how the colors 
Smother
The darkness 
The darkness X2

So here we are
We’ve come this far
Chasing the stars
The breaking hearts

Slippery slope
Waiting for hope
How do we cope
Losing the rope

Can’t seem to find
A place to hide
Just need some light
To shine, to shine

Behold how the colors 
Smother
The darkness
The darkness X2

What’s Left Of Truth

I broke into
What’s left of truth
Burned it for you
But what’s the use
They won’t believe 
They can’t perceive
Anything but
What’s in their rut

Don’t waste my time
Don’t waste my time

The ashes spread 
From toe to head
Newspapers read
It seems they’re dead
No soul inside
No place to hide
A hollow shell
A rotting smell

I broke into
What’s left of truth
Burned it for you
But what’s the use

Don’t waste my time
Don’t waste my time 

I broke into
What’s left of truth
Burned it for you
But what’s the use - - Norris

What’s Left Of Truth

To The Bone

The sounds
Around 
Burn slow
Shadows 
Feeding
Needing
To steal
What’s real

Tear my guts out again
Make all my dreams crash in
Please just leave me alone 
I feel it to the bone 
To the bone, to the bone

Despair 
Is there
Knife edge
A ledge 
Waiting
Hating 
The joy
Destroy 

All the good things that come
Beat me like a damn drum
Squash me under your thumb
Remind me that I’m scum

(Pushing me
Pushing me
Off the edge)

Tear my guts out again
Make all my dreams crash in
Please just leave me alone 
I feel it to the bone 
To the bone, to the bone 

(Pushing me
Pushing me
Off the edge) - - Norris

To The Bone
