In the weekend I’m bold So much more of who I am A heightened man We ride for Thursday Just have to survive these empty days Goodbye until Thursday In the end we’ll make it all our own If I’m finished in their eyes We can storm right through the night Take the weekdays for a spin And then cut out Why wait for Friday We ride for Thursday Just have to survive these empty days Goodbye until Thursday In the end we’ll make it all our own If the last thing you remember Is our smile as...

Always in the mix That’s the thing about rats Hyper intelligence That’s the thing about rats Traveling at speed That’s the thing about rats Sensing everything That’s the thing about rats Spilling a secret That’s the thing about rats Relationship strain That’s the thing about rats So close to my heart Opportunist That’s the thing about rats Burying a clue That’s the thing about rats So close to my heart They gather in the shadows collectively Building mass to come at you Soon they're all you see Soon they're all you see Secreting away ...

Emotion dump I see the wall coming Distance between me and tolerance Not for people but things Damn near everything is moving And I'm complacent I had it all figured out I don't want to grow I'm moving too slow Send a comet at the world I struggle on Nothing has instructions and everything is hard Send a comet at the world I struggle on My child is sitting in a driverless ride Send a comet at the world I struggle on The phone is an app on my phone Send a comet at the world I struggle on I...

Everywhere I taste your pulse In the morning In the evening as I watch the crowds go home You made my day inverted Now I walk this place like Blade Innocence drained from me like the crudest oil You made the sun seem evil Now I carry myself this way You called it a blessing as the best of me drained away Sorting through the wasteland of my mind Let me find balance in the sunset sunrise But not before you succumb to this thing you made ourselves All the days and all the nights were stolen from me You...

King Slender bounce as if on rubber Off the ropes or so he hopes To slam down opponents In the prime of his life Kin Corn Karn gone In this light his eyes are golden He’s a flashy dude Don’t step on his arrangement He’ll straight clothespin you King Slender unleash the slender bender Send a bitch down the way Backbreaker paused Until he has a cause Make a Star Man gone In this light his eyes are golden He’s a flashy dude Don’t step on his arrangement He’ll straight clothespin you The ring of truth The...

Is the measure of a man the sum of his years Or what you see today on this frame Can I beg you to remember me the way I was As someone to envy and fear Walk down the hall seems longer (Impossible) Gotta find a way to slow the fade (Impossible) Feel the bones They’re growing colder (Impossible) Burn away the olden days My gait has taken so many hits The baggage and the pain and the remorse Walk down the hall seems longer (Impossible) Gotta find a way to slow the fade (Impossible) Feel the bones They’re g...

So now You are glowing Repulsive So fetching You sit so sure in your clasp of gold Never budging to face trouble head on Stronger by definition but forced and rigid Can you step down from your throne? Can’t be in this fight in your current state Spreading the gorgeous light A conflict free diamond in this time of need Is just a rock that’s in the way Locusts Are coming Devour That smile You sit so sure in your clasp of gold Never budging to face trouble head on Stronger by definition but forced and rigid Can you...

You've lived complacently Off the cuff I've wanted to step up and save the day You say you never wanted my dog in this fight So do something to save my brain Innocent in the bliss and now I’m hooked So do something fast before I walk like you Right rights the wrong And that is why we're here Moving is something to do When the pot isn't stirred The mixture congeals You say you never wanted my dog in this fight So do something to save my brain Innocent in the bliss and now I’m hooked So do s...

They meant it when they said I was on the rise Always looking for a shortcut to ascend The first one noticed when the time came to be chosen Anyone in my way will face my steel The pointy end Stab if you must Don’t mind I do Hasten your thrust I’m coming for you The pointy end The one you use Time for you To destroy this ruse The pointy end The pointy end Imposter syndrome won’t be the end of me Backed into a corner is the place I shine The pointy end Stab if you mu...

Between the pages An ancient scroll Incantation spoke too audible You bought it low And now it’s grown Spreading like fog over the home Dispel belief The unbeknownst Sanity draining human host We see the changing of the tide A part of me believes It’s so dangerous to dream The God of the Moon agrees Yet he fills us with all Marching on Towards violence Eyes gone gray like slate Where the sun Failed to yield The night god owns the day All I know Is filtered through And the best is kept for him We see the chan...

Found a camera in the cupboard Another in the fan Someone wants to know what I’m doing Eavesdropping on a man Feast your eyes if you want to I’m no stranger to the game Ran interference all my days Now I run counterintelligence on you Getting fitted for size in the memorial garden Back of my mind I’m looking for bugs That’s not the way to ruin my day The boys are itching for a crispy evening And my bond is ironclad So, as I fish the wires from the shelf I don’t think fondly of your pl...

It’s a fine line between living and living well Finding a heaven in this hell Live in a million years in this moment Steal a vibe and confine it Sneak a taste whenever the well is dry It’s the fight Wise Meet me in oblivion Wise Meet me in oblivion Wise Meet me in oblivion Wise beyond the times See me in a place between the seams Bonded in perennial dreams Meet me oblivion Claim your space We’ll ride this beam ad infinitum It’s the fight Space and time aphrodisiac Inhaling cosmic breeze through open pores And open...

Cryptozoology and cryptocurrency Strange bedfellows like tutors and lobotomy We find ourselves in the corner of the pub Nineteen bottles empty and thirteen shattered and seven to go Digging through the shallows of my old billfold Seems like every bit of cash went down his old gill hole Bartender tells me calmly that my friend has to go Deep sea features on a landlocked sea creature Yeah, he knew his way around the town Making friends out of his first and second course But the ocean will only stay on hold until it’s time for a massacre Though his ho...

The only mail I don’t hate is hate mail, I love it Speak your mind and never hold them back, you sicko You fold it up nice and walk it down the hill, on the coldest days There’s so many broken among us Taking up the space we can use for trees Or parking space Or fast food spots Or luncheonettes Or bridal shops Or taxidermists Or lotto offices Or pawn shops Or gold exchange Or smartphone repair We need repair Hey, next time you’re gonna lick a stamp Lick this Lick this Right from the bottom of my...

Reading my name on the back page Whatever you said got legs My plans in disarray Because your storytelling brain leaks like a grate This won’t boil over today Am I right? I’m feeling so violated Can you see my pride slipping away This is supersized in my mind You spilled your beans and I caught a stray Vans populate the front of the house Flashbulbs and microphones in my face Wagging tongue on the nighttime news And now the hairs on my balls are turning gray The ball is my court today Am I right? I’m feelin...

A letter unsent airs the darkest truths Brittle us We apologize for all the bad blood Brittle us We fester inside building a claim Brittle us The edge of a cliff staring at rocks Brittle us Awaiting their feast without a pause Brittle us We're resigned to a fate without a fight Brittle us We brandish the sword that we fall upon Brittle us The gravedigger Measures our size Send me packing Buried my disguise in sand Cause now I'm willing I'm tired of watching us fall down on flattened ground Such a softened state With bones so brittle we...

Mama always warned her to walk on the right side of the road Oncoming traffic at least shows its hand Instead of that blindsight No use for hindsight Fine china shatters just as easily Goodbye sweet young thing Sandpaper hands caress the face No need to learn the lesson Wide eyes bear the truth I'm guessing Why do I have to be right this time Prized possessions die just as easily Goodbye sweet young thing Blindsight keeps me off the road Father figure strained by allegation Good intentions mean less than ever now Goodbye sweet young thing Micah Robinson...

A little of the ultraviolence Slumped under a shady tree Vanilla on a cone of silence This is not what his parents thought he'd be They exchange glances on the firing line It's all underlined When you trade your mind Brutal winters on a Western coast Sights and sounds that don't belong Store bought reaper on a stolen post This is not what my parents thought I'd be They exchange glances on the firing line It's all underlined When you trade your mind They exchange glances on the firing line It's all underlined When you trade your mind Nick Nunziata...

Another story ends at the beginning Failure of the failures to ride the winners To the forums they go to plead their case To the jury made of stone Here come the giants Here come the giants With pulled back faces Here come the giants Here come the giants With pulled back faces I set fire to the eyes that see my To the eyes that see my weakness I set fire to the eyes To the eyes that see my weakness I set the bodies in the square I set the bodies in the square I set the bodies...

In this dome all alone, can't believe you exist It is not my position to question your decision I guess we're just opposites in the way we think If I had a hammer I'd swing it with a vengeance In this dome all alone, can't believe you exist (Who do you think you are?) (In this dome we're all alone) In this dome all alone, can't believe you exist (Who do you think you are?) (In this dome we're all alone) In this dome all alone, can't believe you exist (Who do you think you are?) (In this dome we're...

Sweet sunrise you're a sweet surprise Look at you all logical and pure I'd hit the bricks You're so Plain Jane You need to be spinning on my game Get on under me Get on down Get on under me Love you since the day we met Get on under me Get on down Get on under Get on You defy the laws of science Yeah Get on under me Get on down Get on under me Love you since the day we met Get on under me Get on down Get on under Get on Get on under me ...

This glove is way too bloated Tired of waiting for your attention Savior, I'm looking for a sign here Formless apparition in a tight dress Cozy with a glass in hand Save me Hit me again and again Seasoned for love and fit like honey I'm piss drunk and I need your body Fueled by the glove and love of money I'm piss drunk and I need your body Oh yeah Oh no Oh yeah I'm piss drunk and I need your body Raised my falcon to keep me steady I'm piss drunk Well I'm piss drunk Piss drunk My...

Sucker boy no time for fighting Eight arms as fast as lightning Glassy eyes blink A flash of pink Clean up time Got no time to think Fight fire with commotion Entangled down beneath the ocean The hidden link A flash of pink Then all gone in a cloud of ink My my, oh my I spy with my eye Sucker sucker sucker sucker sucker sucker sucker boy Sucker sucker sucker sucker sucker sucker sucker boy I sense betrayal The system's about to fail Sucker boy got a ten inch beak Squeeze tight so it doesn't leak Glassy eyes wink ...

This is the time This is the place for forgiveness This is the time And this is the place This is my afro Built it in a lab This is all I know Oh no no no This is my afro Built it in a lab This is all I know Oh no no no This is the time And this is the place This is my afro Built it in a lab This is all I know Oh no no no Nick Nunziata - Drums, Vocals Micah Robinson - Bass, Guitar John Makarewicz - Guitar Steve Murphy - Guitar...

It's where I found you On the waves of my dreams Floating effervescently Not jetsam nor flotsam Too beautiful to believe In times of old When we were free Solid and golden But we were not meant to be We're wasting away over the waves Feeling the tide ebb in It haunts me forever I didn't save you that day But I'll carry on With an eye to the sea and an ear to the clouds Your whisper speaks on the breeze I didn't save you that day Well I never knew you Save for a shared glance Floating effervescently ...

Sakes alive I want to celebrate my life It's half over before it's begun I sigh every time I shut my eyes at night Another day spend treading in fear There's no incentive to bleed Still in Covered Basking in overprotection Every time I need to go escape my life I feel the pressure of the unknown I lock the door Feel secure And still wonder "if" Another day spent living in fear There's no incentive to bleed There's no incentive to bleed Still in Covered Basking in overprotection I own my life I own my life I own my...

Smells like Springtime, baby I see your fresh cut grass It's time to play America's favorite pastime, yeah Look the runner back and give the crown another flash of hot leather Hot corner, oh yeah Well, I'll be playing the hot corner, baby Oh yeah Look the runner back and give the crown another flash of hot leather We've waited through the cold for a little bit of that hot corner Hot corner, oh yeah Well, I've been playing the hot corner, baby Oh yeah John Makarewicz - Drums Nick Nunziata - Vocals Steve Murphy - Bass, Guitar, Backing Vocals ...

In a past life I got the black dog Walking cold past Cobblestone Feel it take you To the graveyard Feeling footsteps Cobblestone Sense of dread The appetizer Horseshoes clash Cobblestone I'm not afraid to say the words that cause souls to go cold And then they sing about the dead and dying It fills me up with pride It should bring me to my knees But here I stand tall on cobblestone Tall on cobblestone It's a rich life It's a bloodbath Bones like candy Cobblestone It's a broadcast Echoes in the alley Amplified cries Cobblestone And then they...

Our heartbeats were born at a distance So now you're taking light and trading it for darkness Weigh the consequences and you'll know the score It's you and me against the world Ageless and bonded We are free again No law to bind us in our mental paradise No claims to make The time is an afterthought A little closer to Heaven but further to fall Weigh the consequences and you'll know the score It's you and me against the world Ageless and bonded We are free again No law to bind us in our mental paradise Nick Nunziata...

Been long since someone told me I looked like the boy they met It’s a compliment to endure I’m powering through it all Just like the world Don’t have a reservation We’ll just play through Age gone by in the grasp of this So damn easy to get derailed It’s a gauntlet to endure I’m powering through it all Just like the world Don’t have a reservation We’ll just play through And where you’re cold I’m warm And where you’re skeptical I see a way through And when I falter You’re steady S...

Many come to fall No hand to pick them from the edge Disintegrating slow Respond, respawn again Will you heed the Recognizer’s call Until the server goes offline Danger has its time Ego shattered on a gridded floor Disintegrating slow Respond, respawn again Will you heed the Recognizer’s call Until the server goes offline Many come and go The names will change though the faces stay Disintegrating slow Respond, respawn again Will you heed the Recognizer’s call Until the server goes offline John Makarewicz - Drums, Bass Steve Murphy - Guitar Nick Nunziata - Keyboard, Vocals

The sound of a motor dying A line meant not to move past A shortcut that becomes the longest ride Into the darkness of a home The Black Adder is alone no longer In his eyes a hunger rises above Is it closing? Has the room grown smaller? Is it by design? What is it in the way he moves? I'm paralyzed No words to form No prayers to speak Undulating scales Approximate to a shape both familiar and impossible This is the end Or worse what if it is not Only time will tell now that we're face to...

Stay in the safety of the doorway The Fire Marshall said But there's no way to put trust in The structure above our head I defy you to see a passage through this wave Watching the wildlife abandon The body's response to threat Chasing the plume of smoke To see how high they'll get I only want this moment to be one of strength Where we're going Something akin to wind Particle us together Roundabout equality Where we're going Something akin to wind Particle us together Roundabout equality The buildup to the ending An anticlimax bent Waiting for inevitable And...

Secondhand King on the backhanded side of swagger Waving his piece around like it makes him more If you come at me, you're going to find out What the cost is for crossing someone With a wicked imagination and tons of free time Short-minded bench player using the moment for face time Boosted up by a book he don’t understand If you come at me, you're going to find out What the cost is for crossing someone With a wicked imagination and tons of free time If you and six of your friends, they come knocking I'm gonna need to...
