Album: The Stage (2016)

Sunny Disposition

We've been through hell. Sewn up our eyes.
Found fuel in meds. Viewed through the narrow.
Encouraged fear when so inclined.
Bought peace through wars that doomed our children to die.

Ego is sure to fix the world.
Served up to happy boys and girls.
I'd make a decision if granted the privilege but I'm afraid my taste is unrefined
And no one likes cheap wine.

When the clouds kiss your eye,
Shadows stain on the high-rise
Raise your thumb to the sky
Fossilize

You own the burg. We sleep in streets.
You dine then waste. We forage to eat.
Well who pays the tab when you cross the line?
Who writes the check? Who's herding the swine?

Just takes a fence to rule the roost.
As long as the scale has been reduced.
How can we see outside of the pen when survival has possession of our minds?
Calmly walk the line.

When the clouds kiss your eye,
Shadows stain on the high-rise
Raise your thumb to the sky
Fossilize
All good things come with time
When you know then you'll know
Such a marvelous find in an illusion

(Vlader Lauder sat in sorrow
For all his teeth had gone
He drank sweet rum
While fingering his gun
And eyeballed a feast
Not one bite he could eat
Somebody cut off his head!)

Dear radiation, my sweet friend
Let agents dance upon my nerves
Let sunlight glow under my skin
Let toxins seep into my soul

When the clouds kiss your eye,
Shadows stain on the high-rise
Raise your thumb to the sky
Fossilize
All good things come with time
When you know then you'll know
Such a marvelous time I will find in an illusion

It's an illusion...
