lyrics

SLEEP PARALYSIS

Following these choices, swallow in that poison
Pan handling, loitering, word is bond and his voice is, conjoined here to this crisis
Left here to be lifeless, gun scopes, eye sights, from all these snipers
left here with a broken arm
Tight grip on the right fist
The coops flown the bird and they stabbing them with an ice pick
Got the drive to fly, but they suspended his liscence
Now time waits for no man
And patience is the key
Go ahead chase those dreams, try to make ends meet
So again run in circle, while the cycle seems to repeat
And with the blink of the eye, he falls into a deep sleep

Behold the eye
Stab the beauty till its skin deep
Singing with the innocent
Dancing with the guilty
Mingling with the nice bunch
Flirting with the filthy
Swimming in the bloodstreams
Sunbeams reflect
Remembering nothings what I seem to forget

See theres a thin line and he finds himself in the middle
These rules of thumb wrestling, walking with the crippled
It couldn’t be more simple, more so than ever
See These iron headed wrinkles, pressure on the temples
Anonymous like the next alcoholic in the evening, and i
Think without talking
While you, talk without thinking
Ill meet you at the roadside when you done sleeping

Behold the eye
Stab the beauty till its skin deep
Singing with the innocent
Dancing with the guilty
Mingling with the nice bunch
Flirting with the filthy
Swimming in the bloodstreams
Sunbeams reflect
Remembering nothing is what I seem to forget

See the best things in life is free is what they say
And time is of the money
Or is time of the essence
Well its kind of funny
Cause times is all ive got
Still with an empty stomache and two empty pockets
Still to find the answer
Stillness on this rock
Spill it on the floor and leave it here to rot
Now hear no evil, speak no evil and see
Nothings what I forgot until I fall asleep
