"Mordecai" lyrics
"Mordecai"
[Day one]
Asleep mid-sentence- the words fell apart
No one is listening anyway
This day will soon turn black and my "wants and needs" will spill on my burning ashes
I learned to be selfish today
I learned to be alive
These things I care for are for my personal gain and my personal happiness only
Why should I sit in your chairs and satisfy your standards
I've done it all before and I've confused myself a thousand times
The tragic day that I call morality just doesn't do it for me anymore
No more choices, just standing in the cold
The day will turn black and I will have either lived or died
Asleep mid-sentence- my words fall to the ground
Swept into this dreamland
Economic satisfaction, never succeed
But happiness has its place
Justice will not lie in your corner
New day towards death, only compassion for my own needs make my need necessary
[Day two]
Throw myself in the corner; I have nothing to complain about here
A tragic day seems too peaceful to most, spoiled ambitions turned my heart to black
I'm figuring out this realization process- the process to never look upon bitter ground
Living dreams, loving dreams, awakening to what I've always dreamt of
The familiar sound of the lovely love from the love of my life will keep the notes coming
From the reciting of the show
From the plip and the shevanel
From the grind that annoys, and the sarcasm, they all hate
Forever I worship
I'll kill, love, and hate for all of you
Thank you for the best part of my life

Controlled by labor, printed paper and the corruptors of the world.
Synthetic lies collect our minds to the beast.

Eighteen Visions - "Tower Of Snakes" You told me no apologies
But I'm sorry it couldn't cut the mustard
And it's absurd.
Hey, you turned the light off, you gave me darkness.
You sucked the blood right out of life.

Emmure - "Solar Flare Homicide" I see a fire in the sky
Lights go out
I'm gonna finish what I started

Death cannot tear us apart

Then I'll...
