Future Perfect

Nights of time spent in dark rooms, glowing television
We are now old enough to make well-drawn decision
We cuff our hands and do away with worry
We press lips and the TV begotten so blurry

So long as night exists we only have another
Again is 'sleep time' spent beneath the covers
My breathing has never been so hard
As I feel you in evermore close regard

Sun and moon will never be at battle again
We'll remember such days way back when
It was in giving that we received
To combat times that we were deceived

The part came where the planets align
As such we gave so much space and time
Rewarding is our love almost too true
For the future perfect I love only you

Pitchforks

Putting feet into the pedal speeding away
Hiding behind selfish lies that led people astray
Sowing seeds of fabrication into the population
Leaving no promise answered with confirmation

Plead with me babe, because no one will
Give a funnel for my bleeding heart to fill
No inclusions of safety for the common man
I stop and wonder who stayed and who ran

One day that king will simply be shot by brother
For the freedom of his people and all who suffer
Everyday is the day of sweat and crudest toil
But someday everyone's blood will come to boil

We cannot help but look at every fool alive
Without slapping similarity of why we thrive
One thousand lies bought; and truths sold
Wishing that that it was earlier that we were told

Dimension Zero

Ultrasounding out the things beyond what our eyes perceive
Cutting out the hemorrhaging blight behind walls of grace
It is in new ultimate giving that we are ever bound to receive
When it's almost all over we join together in sweet embrace

The eclectic tear pulls us into places we never like to see
But given no choice we are left to fight in unfamiliar places
Very few things stand between lifelong lovers such as we
As we journey through the foggy ruins of wide open spaces

Take a souvenir because there's no coming back to this
This wicked place does not deserve good people like we
We're challenging the void in the midst of howl and hiss
We don't like it here because it just isn't the place to be

A long time ago something kept me there since first dawn
And the answer back then is just the same as for now
Nothing can ever leave me if I'm already long, long gone
I live today for what lies ahead forevermore unexplained how
