Vexed Warnings (Live)

A wrong call
Vexed warnings
Left wondering, what’s important
The callous controller that watches the way
No craft
No calling
Slick dialects that lead us astray
All false
All stalling
A wrong call
Vexed warnings
Left muttering, and dormant
The poison is pushed, that’s fine you say
No task
No pausing
Advertised as so quick to obey
All false
Beguiling...
Of minds
A proffered phrase
You take no action when taking action these days
You take
No action when
Taking action these days
A wrong call
Vexed warnings
Left staring at the abhorrent
The poison is pushed, that’s fine you say
No craft
No pausing
Advertised as so quick to obey
All false
Beguiling

First Shot Misses (Live)
01:58

It’s what they would write...
You know what will happen
Fixed, altered, in every way
An assertion profession
And the indifference of your adversaries
There’s a time
When they will win
There's not an answer
To every question
First shot misses
Ride out the day
Consider it a warning
Few notes that you bray
In violence we’re drowning
There is a time
When they will win
There's not an answer
To every question
First shot misses
You know what we’re trapped in
Exit obscured and out of sight
As it all wears thin, remember…
This is what they will write
You know what will happen
Fixed, altered, in every way
An assertion profession
And the indifference of your adversaries
So what are we waiting for

It’s far outside us – prescribed
Ignored forever until inside
One year to ancient
The rending drain
One year to ancient
Index the pain
Resist abide
Never satisfy
The will to guide
The ceaseless hands of time…
It’s all around us - inscribed
On our skin – in our faces - and eyes
One year to ancient
The vernal bane
One year to ancient
Index the pain
Resist or hide
Preoccupied
With the grave inside
The ceaseless promise of time…
One year to ancient
You’ve said it all,
Making the wonder cease
Leave only what you recall
One year to ancient
Refuse the chain
One year to ancient
Embrace the pain
Resist defy
Never satisfy
The will to guide
The ceaseless hands
It’s time…
Give youth your light
It’s time…
Give youth your fight
It’s time…
Give youth your might
It’s time…
Give youth their rite
It’s time

Human Resources (Live)

Come on you bastards
Tell us how you care
About our well-being and safety
Of those instantly spared
It’s boilerplate language
Meant to quell the beast
Feigned compassion
As your profits decreased
Your top priority
Of pretend transparency
Visions of invulnerability
Your return
Is not our return
To normalcy

They taunt change
The fear of the unknown sound
It’s on display
As it comes back, comes back around
War-bolstered walls
Architects of the deranged
There’s never common ground
It's all punching down
With tyrannous aspirations
Asp-tongued, viper-brained
So tightly wound
Victims of coordination
Evolutionary casualty
War-bolstered walls
Architects of...
Diversionary
Dated dreams
Where they all knew their place
So tightly wound
Victims of coordination
Evolutionary casualty
It's all punching down
With tyrannous aspirations
Asp-tongued, viper-brained
For fear of change
