Tower of Silence - Track 3

Verse 1
I can - feel my - tempo - drop
Doubt - it will - ever - stop
I must have got lost, I’m not trusting
I forgot I am bought, I’m not trusty
I see that when I wrote it
But the next thing—you know it
I’m lost at sea
Collapsed, capsizing
My head is rocking sideways
Pulverizing, help me polarize it
My mind is like a sailboat, You know what I mean
You’re as close as close as close can be, but You’re still so far away it seems
And I can’t control my brain
My mind takes over my body
I can’t help but feel insane
My thoughts loose a lot of me
This morning, my life was without stain
But as the day goes by, my heart grows faint
Beaten down by the voices that taunt my head
Then I forget the war that’s lead
I let another day go, by
Polluting what should be a clear, blue, sky

Hook
I am in the think of things
Lost my sight of lunar rings
I want to live in open fields
But I doubt if that is ever real
I like fancying outside the woods
Then I fear I never could

Verse 2
I walk down the route for a season
Then I find my soul is really sinking
I’m afraid I don’t know what I’m thinking
Sinking deep, because I’m my own shrink
Can you tell I fall asleep when I give to the blink
Hell must be hot and rightfully so
Because we ought to fancy the dark
And my soul is cold, more so the older I grow
Thinking myself to sleep—we think too deep
Pressure behind my eyes, my stress will swell with pride
This headache is my own mistake
It’s the siren I let off in warning of my mind frame
Because my game is to play with my brain
I live the the pain of what my mind has made
It’s a migraine—the absence of light
I’ve been tested with no rest to walk by sight
Can you hear this distress call?
Something’s not right

Hook
I am in the think of things
Lost my sight of lunar rings
I want to live in open fields
But I doubt if that is ever real
I like fancying outside the woods
Then I fear I never could
I am in the think of things
Lost my sight of lunar rings

Refrain (x3)
Give me Your water, give me Your fire
I cannot drown, I cannot burn
When I am holding onto You
When I am holding onto You

Verse 3
I created a world inside my mind
To retreat to the darkness behind my eyelids
My head shipwrecked on what land I could find
Welcome to my wrists, I also call my islands, I rely on
But might I say we take a break from the slits
To break away from the graves of the day
We’re broken people, forged with beautiful minds
But be wary of the things your heart goes to find
Because we tend to linger toward the things undefined
Then we begin to doubt and leave our faith far behind
Listen to me, you may be convinced you’ll like it better when you’re sleeping
The dark has feeling and the pain is fleeting
But please hear this, don’t give to the blink
When I did, I found myself sinking
I fell asleep, eternally bleeding

Break
Dark nights, cold days, no sensation
One way, delayed, cease from conversation

Verse 4
The difference between being awake and dying, for one is trying
That’s all we’re called to do, You have saved me so I’ll try to love You

So please be thinking, because your soul is really breathing
And your sea may be dark, but salvation is not that far
It might take some tenacity, running from the thoughts that are after me
From the dark I turned to pleading
Asking desperately, speaking honestly
“Come save me!” and now I’m free

Your heart, my counterpart, is not made of stone
It is a roaring sea, of soul and emotion you have left alone
And it longs to break free

Tower of Silence - Track 4

Chorus (distant)
We’re heading down
To find our sound
We’ll sing it loud
For those around
We once were lost
But now we’re found

Verse 1
So what’s wrong with me? What’s my problem?
Now I need to see, go down to the bottom
But I need you with me as I’m solvin’
‘Cause I can’t dig deep enough and keep hauling
Without you here to get a different view of this coffin
There’s no above or around
The only way is down
I don’t see a way through this door—what is it here for?
Is there a way to find a key? There must not be
Well then that’s when I start to wonder
If it’s better to just go under
To **** myself quietly
Or lose myself within the sound
Can I somehow go around, or sit here happily?
Either way I lost my sense of ground
Because we can’t just ignore the reason we’re bleeding for
But we adore to store it in our bones
Then I finally give in, to what could still be deception
But it’s the only way I see fit
Is the way that’s barely lit
So I head down the path I think is heading sound

Chorus
We’re heading down
To find our sound
We’ll sing it loud
For those around
We once were lost
But now we’re found

Verse 2
Demons come to me in the dark
I feel them stay as my mind departs
I don’t really know, what’s behind my skull
They talk too fast, and that’s all I know
I’ll sit here and let it soak in
Whatever they say, I’ll take it slow
Like I haven’t been
I stepped away from the sound
Get a level head and find some new ground
No noise to hide behind—thought I could think
But to my demise, I found what lies
Behind the space to get away—oh so terrifying
Turns out the silence is violent
And now I don’t think I can make a break
Oh, though fascinating
Can hardly keep it quiet, behind my mind
As I finally find the thoughts within my skin
Because the noise only allows thoughts at night
Now I can try to or I can let the silent win
But I will keep myself posted up on this Tower of Silence
Because there’s truth within the night—is what I find
So I will sit here, visited by kisses of reminisce
I will let the carrion come tonight
Stay in the dark until I find what has me torn apart
In hopes the quiet can shed some light
I just want to close my eyes
So I crawl back inside my mind
To see how far my thoughts will go to lie
Like my noose, I strangle the truth
Uncross my T’s, un-dot my I’s

Chorus
We’re heading down
To find our sound
We’ll sing it loud
For those around
We once were lost
But now we’re found

Bridge
My mind receives mores code
Messages most don’t know
Channeling things to me
Tell my I’m gone but no
Information I must take slow
Is anyone capable of listening?

Verse 3
I fear my imagination
I’m scared of my own creation
I don’t know what to do with my right side brain
It’s the addict to darkness I can’t keep contained
Could he ever benefit the world in some way?
I’m just falling around, wondering if I should keep him bound
Or if I should take off his chains
To hopefully cast your demons at bay
I desire to help others through what I write
But I fear I’d be returning to my dark plight
Because every time I go to jot something
I feel like I’m stumbling
I need to take a careful pace
Careful not to put myself in a hazy place
I still have a bad taste on my tongue
Of what I’ve gone through but I want His praise to be sung
I need to be careful so I can help you

Refrain
Start low, follow me down
Start low, follow me down
Start low, follow me down
Start low, follow me down

Break
(( Is anyone capable of listening? ))

Verse 4
Or maybe that’s the purpose, if it’s worth this
For me to keep returning, to go down so you don’t go under
To post myself on this tower to host His glory and power
So will you walk with me, my Kind, my brothers?
Will you take a look at the dead dark side of the moon to reach you sooner?
Fuel this fire, our hearts are yearning to be burning
I will stay with you, I will go
I will be here, I’ll stay the night
I will fight so we both see the light
You who are caught up in your darkest thoughts
And you believe your mind is all you got
It’s not just you, there’s another way through
We are not alone, our heads sick and our brains prone
So maybe what I’m trying to say
Is we’re messing up but that’s okay
Come down with me and we’ll find our way
So sing it with me if you know what I mean

Break
(( Messages most don’t know ))
(( Tell us we’re gone but no ))

Refrain
Start low, follow me down
Start low, follow me down
Start low, follow me down
Start low, follow me down

Chorus (x2)
We’re heading down
To find our sound
We’ll sing it loud
For those around
We once were lost
But now we’re found

Tower of Silence - Track 12

Verse 1
Oh oh, I’m fearful when I play our song alone
Oh oh, I’m careful when we wear our rebel clothes
Oh oh, I’m ready when we sing this on the low
I’m lonely when I forget about our revel, oh oh
I’m zealous when we go marching in our yellow, oh oh!
I’m steady when I’m covered by my fellow rebels

Chorus
If we keep moving, they won’t know
Stay here with me, just keep low
When the silence flows, we will know that
Their religion has no hold, no
(The demons have no govern here)
Their religion has no hold, no
(The demons have no govern here)

Verse 2
There’s something that we need to say
Something before the end of the day
One thing before you go back home
You need to know you are not alone
You need to take it from these lines
There’s an army of us by your side
For you my stomach churns, my lyrics burn
I can’t sleep until it’s heard
So let’s take a walk and join the march
My Kind, my muse, there are many but we are few
Fighting for our minds, my Kind
Aiming for your heart, BANG our hope in view

Chorus
If we keep moving, they won’t know
Stay here with me, just keep low
When the silence flows, we will know that
Their religion has no hold, no
(The demons have no govern here)
Their religion has no hold, no
(The demons have no govern here)

Verse 3
Fall out of formation, rebel recognition, oh oh
They keep us in line
Follow the vibrations, come and find your place in, oh oh
We’ll find our incline
We’re all searching for something new
So I’ll go through with you
My lungs, are tired
But my hope, has not, retired

Bridge
( They won’t know ) (( About our revel ))
( Just keep low ) (( Marching in our yellow ))
( They won’t know ) (( About our revel ))
( Just keep low ) (( Marching in our yellow ))

drums Hey! (x5)

Verse 3
Each of us has our own trench
A black pit we must bare before we can breathe the morning air
Fire proves the proof in bullets
Ideas you should go show prudent
With growing numbers and flying colors my sisters and brothers
Tested and oppressed by the vendetta
Except’a He took the death to get me outa
The government of suffering that hovers
A masked assassin I tend to question
Our trench which is tended by depression
It’s a human condition, along with anxiety and suicide succession
But we must take a stand to enter in, to find our way within the dim
We’ll be up here on the ridge
As you walk across your bridge
We’ll cloak you with hope and encouragement
All of us as we face our tench
Receiving the yellow letters you sent

Chorus
If we keep moving, they won’t know
Stay here with me, just keep low
When the silence flows, we will know that
Their religion has no hold, no
(The demons have no govern here)
Their religion has no hold, no
(The demons have no govern here)

Bridge
Dare to be one of us, hey!
Dare to be one of us, hey!
Dare to be one of us, hey!
Dare to be one of us, hey!
Dare to be one of us, hey!
Dare to be one of us, hey!
Dare to be one of us, hey!

Verse 4
Our minds can be violent
In a world surrounded by sound, we’re worn and beaten down
But when our flow goes quiet
And our brains aren’t occupied, we can find the silence in our mind
But often we make an attempt to hide it
Day-to-day life chips away at our bones, caught up in the touch-and-go
So when our lives go vacant, our thoughts become blatant
We recognize the darkness behind our skull
Applying a little more pressure than usual
But I’ve found there’s another sound, I know of
For when we feel this far from home, reminding us we are not alone
We must not let each other go under
We’ll recover in our cover
Listen to my message, it’s dire
Because many of us are losing our fire
So take your time to cover and let someone know
We must band together to take them whole
Blinker, Sleeper, or Heaver
I promise you, we’ll make it though
I am a Dreamer and so are you

Outro
I am a Dreamer and so are you
I am a Dreamer and so are you!
I am a Dreamer and so are you!!
I am a Dreamer and so are you!!!

I am a Dreamer and so are you

The truth can be so straight forward
But our minds don’t only go towards it
Forage in your storage and you can form it
I’m hoping to pour it, the things I conform to
Bend it and will it, preferably to **** it
But they readapt and draft us back
To break the pact our pack stacked
With an attack that retracts
Are they just toying with us?
See our enjoyment then deploy our lament
They morph to storm every door we’re in

Resolution is the first step
Deft to the cleft of what’s kept
Realization but then we question
So I’m afraid the questions will be our demise
And I’m afraid which side I’ll take pride in
By the time I realize but I’ll be seeing His eyes
Neglecting the last day that’s left
I know I can’t be apart from His breath
But will these attempts honor His death?
Will Nige profess His love or scare them off?
Is this thought or is this a cough?
