In the shadowed corners of the web they spin
A tangled network, thick with sin
Weaving tales from the loom of dread
With strands of lies so easily spread

Can you discern the truth from the charade?
Or will you dance to the masquerade?

They feed us fear, they sell us d

In this race against the time
Chasing dreams that seem so far
Working day and night
Reaching for that shining star
But the hours slip away
Like sand through my hands
Trying to make ends meet
In this life's demands

I know I've hurt you
Sacrified the moments w

In a world that spin too fast
She was my solid ground
A steady force of nature
When chaos is all around
I was all rough edges
A rebel without a cause
Like a night-time dreamer
Forever chashing stars

But she saw something in me
Beneath the wild veneer

In a world that spin too fast
She was my solid ground

When chaos is all around
I was all rough edges

In the shadow of your laugh, there's a truth that breaks
A glimmer of the person that the poison overtakes
Through the haze of the highs, I see the lows
The one I knew, now a stranger, a tale of woes
You dance with the devil under the neon lights
Each pill, each shot, another

In the silence of my room, I wonder what's become
Of the world we used to know, where we laughed and had fun
But now we're kept apart, by this unseen enemy
A pandemic, a cloud that hangs over you and me

Days turn into weeks, the loneliness starts to creep
Missing family and

In the mirror, a crowd stares back at me
Faces of who I am and who I'll never be
A whispering chorus in a mind set free
Voices of strangers, the ones I can't flee
I'm the puppet, the puppeteer in disguise
Pulling my strings under watchful skies

Am I the madman, or just

Basement dweller, dreams of stardom burned Screaming vocals, never learned
Band names changed, like the wind would blow
From Mann's Misfits to the Rusty Halo

Party metal, never made the scene
Just a garage band, a fever dream
Junkhead rhythms, pounding in my head

In a world filled with darkness and despair
A simple act of kindness, a burden we can share
Let's break the chains of selfishness and greed
Pay it forward, plant the seeds of love and need

Pay it forward
Let's spread a little light!

Five reasons, a man for all seasons stands
In the heart of this place's ever-shifting sands
Yearning to flee this vast, relentless brawl
Where the whispers of the crowd beckon and call

In this crowded solitude, I find my way
All alone wandering, in the fray
A silent sym

We started out, just you and I
A spark that flew into the sky
Your love was warm, a sweet embrace
But now I find I need some space

I'm caught in a love that's too tight to breathe
In the chains of your arms, I'm starting to grieve
A smothering touch that I used to crave

Underneath the willow's weeping boughs we'd lay
Whispers in the wind, your silent screams convey

Ignorant to the endless battles you'd fight

I stood by your tempest, through the howling gale
