Lyrics:
You always said you never thought of life in that way
A momentary episode devoid of fallout
Linger through your history, embrace the sorrow
Bend the truth the fit your ruth, and relapse to it
Coerced to disparaging
Living out a secondary choice
The haunted gaze across your face, crescendo breathing
Eager to erase, I know its starting over
The counter cycle of remorse with no disclosure
Toss away the only hope of moving forward
Coerced to disparaging
Living out a secondary choice
So sorry we must confront
This new replacement of your former self
What once was you, no longer true
Determined to, erasing you
Neglecting to, embrace the truth
Regain control, by forfeiting

Lyrics:
It's the same old story.
Again and again
And it just keeps on going
Nothing can change this
Not even a recode
Living for the superficial
It's the same old story.
Again and again
And it justs keep on going
Nothing amended
All is demanded
Living in this artificial world
Artificial paradigm (scream)
Our official paradigm
Running our lives all the time (scream 2)

The Hopeful Shift (Demo)

Lyrics:
Let's talk about how you want to converse with one syllable words, smileys and closed endings
Cause I don't Know what else I can still propose, there are so many issues that you won't disclose, to anyone
Let's talk about how you advertise, your desire to speak , well you aren't talk to me, or anyone at all
Should I pester you a little bit more, keep pushing for an answer, or just keeping asking more
cause we're getting nowhere
Canceled dates and dynamic states
Searching for an anchor to bring you out of this
The hopeful shift
That slides it all back into place
Gets you out there and brings you face to face with your evasions
then one day you'll take off from this, desperate, tired and over this
of all the things you said you'd do
I didn't think this one you'd choose
I think helped youd choose
every conversation
an interrogation
mere frustration
self isolation
an adoration
for contemplation
an aspiration
for devastation

Lyrics:
Hi There we’ve met
what do I possibly do next?
there’s this protocol to apparently give you control
over my mind
Hi there again
Do you even remember me?
Do I do the same? Forget your name and play this game.
In order to… go from strangers to something
I don’t know what it, is I need to do
I know what I am never supposed to
But I don’t know any other way
If I ask you, you would run away
Are you afraid of me? Like I’m afraid of you
(From strangers to something) x4
Hi there my friend
Have I said enough to call you that?
Do we move past that or go right back cease what we've got?
Where was my fault?
hi there good bye
I guess I tried
I don’t know what it, is I need to do
I know what I am never supposed to
But I don’t know any other way
If I ask you, you would run away
Are you afraid of me? Like I’m afraid of you
I’m afraid of you
Are you scared of me?
I’m afraid of everything but it’s nothing to you
But its petrifying me
and its all in my head
How can I get it out
And not blow this all away
But its everything to me
And its nothing to you
I’m afraid of you, are you scared of me
Im afraid of everything but its all in my head
I’m afraid of you, im scared for you
Im afraid of everything but its all in my head

Mis/s Erase (Demo)

Lyrics:
How did you mis-erase
When did you erase you
And I know what you go through
Every phase
and I know what you plan to
when its too late
Miss Erase
“Stay with me
and leave me be
with this disease
heed to me
erase me”
You want me to help you through
You want me to leave you too
And
you need me to help you through
And you don't want me leaving you
You flee this to runaway
When you don't need to be afraid
And
You want me to help you through
You want me to leave you to
Mis-erase you

Glitter Makeup (Demo)

Lyrics:
Cover it up with glitter makeup
Convince yourself of permanence
A wound so deep, not tended to, permitting you to murder you
And those who cared, tried helping you
To find a path inverted to, the one that you, were lit to choose, the one that will end you
And I know, that the best for me is the worst for you right now
And I see, that the worst for me is the best for you right now
Or so I thought
Cover it up with glitter makeup
Make me the enemy
Turn me around, seek my help
One last time then bring me down
Read my concern, as control
(goat scream)
And I don’t, want to know what you are doing now
Anymore, or how far you have gone to learn this twice
By choice, this time
Blame me, this time
And I know, that the best for me is the worst for you right now
And I see, that the worst for me is the best for you right now
Or so I thought
