Separated from the common man,

Frayed to show you his condition

Hard to sleep when you grind your teeth

Victims of the meek become withered and weak.



Set the stage for them

Living amongst the endless time paradox

A baseline era of a thirsty vendetta

Never gaining back all that is lost



When the buckle breaks

When the safety net fails to save you

Dig in deep, you always held the key

The chaos exposes integrity



No fuel to ignite the spark

When you're cut off from oxygen

Don't lose yourself in a dreary groove

How do you expect to improve?

You must be insane



When the buckle breaks

When the safety net fails to save you

Dig in deep, you always held the key

The chaos exposes integrity



Not burning as brightly as past hours nightly

Harmony found it's way in one hell of a mess

With progress unlikely, and a grip not held as tightly

How can anyone have a fraction of hope in this?



Now places become nameless

Before soul blank spaces

Casting these shadows

On hollow embraces

The trials he faces,

And all of these changes

Time to measure your effort's worth instead of it wasted.



When the buckle breaks

When the safety net fails to save you

Dig in deep, you always held the key

The chaos exposes integrity
