Muddy Waters

This is just a phase
It was just a phrase
What if it wasn't a real question?
It could have been just a suggestion
Forgive me,  my mind wanders
Through muddy waters
More often than I count sheep
Still begging to finally go to sleep
Still wondering why I gave all of me
Still searching through that muddy water before me

The Collective

Collective soul
Collective sigh
All of their collective eyes
Couldn't bring you back again
Couldn't make me pretend
Would rather have a collective of lead
Lodged inside my head

Bound

Bound to the words we sing
Bound to the words we sink

Mind over matter
Mind doesn't matter

Who do you think we are?
Who do you think you are?

What's left to say?
What's left to save?

Bound to the youth
Bound to the truth

The soulless wonder
The soulless hunger

Break on through
Break onto

I hung on by a thread
I hold up my own head

Bound to the future
Bound to... I've had enough of you.

Free

Look into the stars
We will see
Just who we are

I hope you can believe
Now we are...
Free

Come with me
Leave your conscious be
And count to three

I hope you can breathe
Now we are...
Free

On the edge
Of my dreams
What will be,  will be

I hope you can forsee
Now we are...
Free

On the other hand
As I make my last stand
I want you to understand
Now I am... 
Me

Infected from Within

Erase it all
Like a spotless mind
Strike a match
But no one's got the time
Listen to your shaddows
As you fall asleep
So strong inside
Too afraid to weap
Watching you become a zombie
That refuses to feed on brain
I wish I could watch you
Dance in the rain
I bet you think
This is about you
I'm just searching
For my youth
Is it wrong?
Is sacrifice a sin?
Sitting here,  watching
You infected from within.
