Netcees - The Cliff of the Lights of Life

Overlapping 4/4 timing....

I'll let the truth speak solemnly from loose leaf prophecies
So don't confuse grief when you know who leaves, honestly
I knew these would posthumously lead followers to believe
that the drama between the new age and nonmodern is not needed

Who's sayin that god wants us to stop thinkin is stupid
It's just a ruse makin its rounds constantly, somehow I grew out of it
It's like, I've found the fountain of youth, or I could move mountains
But I don't wanna alter the view just to disprove doubters

I'm deep, down in the groove, with a smooth conscience
Consciously aware that where I'm goin there's no use for logic
No one'll choose to solve problems if the solution'll bruise the soft
spot on their ego, this populace people call

the human race needs to fall, we're a monument to evil
Let all of our monoliths with steeples teeter and topple over
Realize your tithings pay Paul and Peter, not Jehovah
Do you even want some closure, what about a little bit

of lost composure, right at the moment
you thought that this all would go where you wanted it
It's no fair to hominids, I don't care for ominous
threats, even more so than cold stares from the opposite

sex, this is how it connects so seamlessly
From one line to the next flow, easily
Let's go, piece by piece through the deepest regions
of my innermost demons and beliefs. Hell froze

over sometime between me bein a peaceful fetus
and what leads to these thoughts comin from the mind of an evil genius
Intertwined in so tight of a weave no light can be
seen through even the widest of cracks as it glows brightest

Burnin me alive inside as I wish to turn the tides of change
But every night's the same, hurt, despite the pain
I've learned the right if way, and the right way to learn
Yearned to fight the day but each night takes its turn

Whether for the worst or not I've searched the plot I've led til now
Perched upon a ledge of grounds unheard of, it's settled down
But the blood shed from my soul bled into thus persona as it let it out
So there's no more me left, just a whole lot I've been in doubt of

I went around the valley where the shadows go to die
Thought I was dead, but sadly, I managed to survive
It didn't turn out as badly as I imagined it, but why?
Could the road I've been happily travelin down lead to the passage of time?

Once the planet's align as nine shining examples
The advantage is mine but I'm finding the candles light
not half as bright as shadows that line these dismantled
plans with the sight behind blinding what's sampled

... I don't know, but I'd gladly leave the past behind me
It's the last thing I need to keep on thinkin about...
Sinkin and drownin in deep thoughts, asking "why me?"
But finding the answer ain't so easy when what's passed creeps silently
