Don't Be Light

lyrics

11.orgasm

Strength

Patience

Compassion

Soft Control

DON’T BE LIGHT
when should the savior start to boast
when should the choir boy slit throats
when should the bastard praise the son
when should the sad girl have some fun

when should we try to rip the threads
break the cocoon but emerge dead
when should we sate the bad ideas//grandiose
when should we face delusions

pick yourself up, dust the dirt…

pick your battles, scorch the earth…

when should the victim stand back up
when will the damsel have enough    
they still got the better shit
they still got the bigger stick
they may never let you

DON’T BE LIGHT. DON’T MISS YOUR CHANCE TO TOUCH THE SKY AND KISS THE SUN.
MAKE IT rain HEAVY.
DON’T MISS YOUR CHANCE TO PROVE YOURSELF TO EVERYONE.
Don’t be light. THE PAIN IS SO SEVERE YOU THINK YOU’RE THE ONLY ONE.

but pain is a tricky little bitch.
so don’t be light.

don’t be light.

I BELIEVE in YOU, LIKE i believe IN EVERY OTHER BROKEN one.

and there’s more than just us.
and they sit home alone.
and they binge on their shit.
and they talk about change, but can’t muster to get it done.

and they’re coming in droves.
lining up at the door.
and they see the facade.
and they don’t want a lot,
and they know that there’s something more.

DON’T BE LIGHT. DON’T MISS YOUR CHANCE TO TOUCH THE SKY AND KISS THE SUN.
MAKE IT rain HEAVY.
DON’T MISS YOUR CHANCE TO PROVE YOURSELF TO EVERYONE.

DON’T BE LIGHT. DON’T MISS YOUR CHANCE TO TOUCH THE SKY AND KISS THE SUN.
Pull your trigger.
DON’T MISS YOUR CHANCE TO PROVE YOURSELF TO EVERYONE.

and you’re coming in droves.
lining up at the door.
and you see the facade.
and you don’t want a lot, but you know that there’s got
to be
something more.

The Ugly Facade

We live our lives in boxes, with little glowing screens. We fill our blood with toxins, so we can deal with things. And sometimes, more than often, the bitter masks the taste. The fruitless failed reflection: what if it's all a waste?
