Final Days
A view from a window up night Stuck inside these four walls My glass is so full, but my thirst Well it’s never ending The patterns repeated; I cry My isolated prison I can’t continue on in this way cus’ I fell I’m bending No one, but my thoughts to discuss I’ll feel I’m going crazy My voice, oh it exhales the halls Will I hear an answer The isolation’s got me down I can’t believe we’re living in this way All alone we’re turned around (Divided we’re alone) We’re in the final days now The isolation’s got me down I can’t believe we’re living in this way All alone we’re turned around (Divided we’re alone) We’re in the final days now Believe in what you want to see Live your dreams, such ecstasy Well I question, yet I question it all What has really happened My heart says it’s all just a rouse Please open up your eyes now A view from a window so small Believe in what they feed you Ashamed, I’m ashamed of our world Get off your knees now The isolation’s got me down I can’t believe we’re living in this way All alone we’re turned around (Divided we’re alone) We’re in the final days now We’re in the final days now (Divided we’re alone) I Say Let Go
Seems I never really knew you I only caught your name Your conscious remains a mystery Was it all in vein And forgiveness is the lesson Ask what’s left in life Connected but only in a dream A girl with so much strife I say let go of me It’s time for me to let you know I must forgive it’s time And remove you from my mind You’re an empty glass of ether That nothing could fulfill Your insights were all but emptiness Thoughts alone could kill See, division’s what you wanted Keep things all in line A race that was only out of fear I never saw the signs I say let go of me It’s time for me to let you know I must forgive it’s time And remove you from my mind I get that life has shown you all it’s dark ways It’s time to see that there are only new days Slithering and winged Looking deep within its eyes Spiraling down, without an end Held a deep and dark surprise The tortured tales that you’d speak of Your darkness in detail A life that was only riddled in Abuse has left you frail Still I never did imagine That things like that were real I guess that I only ever knew One side of the wheel I say let go of me It’s time for me to let you know I must forgive it’s time And remove you from my mind Make a Choice
Take these words as a message that Things may be More than what they seem What began as a little tear More than that The lies elude the dream Things you watched yet you never knew Were they real Or more like smoke and mirrors We’re programmed from an early age Don’t ask why Please just turn the page I need you all to stop and make a choice because Together we can have a voice No more can we look the other way and be okay The carrot’s always been an inch away Take a bite You can’t taste what’s not real Truth is out there, but can you see Look around One step and you’re free I need you all to stop and make a choice because Together we can have a voice No more can we look the other way and be okay We’re just their canaries in the coal mine A beat out of step and out of time We’re just their canaries in the cold mine Taken for our worth time after time A cabal with a vicious gain Dragon’s head Is someone that you know The spider’s web surrounds us all One more step You can’t avoid my call I need you all to stop and make a choice because Together we can have a voice No more can we look the other way and be okay The Unknown
We teeter on the edge And blindly walk this ledge All bets to be hedged In the unknown It is all just a test A promise of the best Breeds within me unrest Contempt in me has grown Our dreams have all derailed The future we’ve curtailed Illusions they prevail All bought and sold I think it’s time we rise And strip off our disguise It’s light that burns the lies It is time to be bold As we Try to build a ladder to the sky And think we’ll never die We know… We grow to see into infinity And a place we once called home The unknown Convinced that we must hide And separate we divide Told you must abide The truth will free you Together we are one Divided we are none It’s more than just a pun These words they are true As we Try to build a ladder to the sky And think we’ll never die We know… We grow to see into infinity And a place we once called home The unknown I see you walking in a line (You can’t see) Hand in hand you’ve lost your minds (Defy my reality) How much louder can we be (Or make me do things that I know our wrong) What will it take for you to see (When you haven’t questioned anything at all) Open up your eyes So turn off all your screens Infected through these means It’s then you may redeem And take your life back The numbers have been worked Confuse you through the murk It’s how we’ve all been jerked And led without facts As we Try to build a ladder to the sky And think we’ll never die We know… We grow to see into infinity And a place we once called home The unknown All lyrics and music copyright 2022 Christopher Parkes & Brian Kumm, All Rights Reserved
