Altar 02:40
I thought I told you, thought I said that street is one way, it leads to death I thought I told you, thought you knew I can’t save her, I can’t save you, but with every hour, with every day I’m getting better, getting brave I can’t go back there, won’t return she’s long gone now, but you can learn at the altar of outside opinion no one is safe at the altar of outside opinion you’re just a name on the wall name to be called I can still see her pretty face her stomach ravaged, worth erased that’s why I’m out here, it’s what I stay I speak for what she couldn’t say, and now it’s getting harder, so they say I’m more aware now, more awake but either way out, it doesn’t change I can’t stay where I’m rearranged at the altar of outside opinion no one is safe at the altar of outside opinion you’re just a name on the wall name to be called it’s a hallway, can’t you see it? got no windows, can’t you see it? it’s a coffin, can’t you see it? it’s the wrong way, can’t you see it? at the altar of outside opinion no one is safe at the altar of outside opinion you’re just a name on the wall name to be called at the altar of outside opinion no one is safe at the altar of outside opinion you’re just a name on the wall name to be called name on the wall name to be called

Land of Men 04:42
I don’t wanna hear about it anymore your lofty opinions jesus christ, I get it and it’s such a bore you and all of your minions but if I say one thing back now it’s about the way I talk yeah, if I say one thing back now I can get my things and walk sanitize the language that you’ve learned to use now you’re all perfect people never mind forgetting why you get to choose unlike the rest of us fearfuls but if I say one thing back now it’s about my state of mind yeah, if I say one thing back now I am getting out of line do you ever stop to think: you might not have earned what you have? it’s a product of us laying flat no one seems to notice they all look just like you every day, I get to offer myself up to the gaze of the keepers all the same, they take credit for what they can what they can steal from the seers but if I say one thing back now it becomes the living end yeah, if I say one thing back now I’m not really fitting in do you ever stop to think: you might not have earned what you have? it’s a product of us laying flat no one seems to care that they all look just like you all look just like you on and on and on do you ever stop to think: you might not have earned what you have? it’s a product of us laying flat no one seems to care that they all look just like you do you ever stop to think: you might not have earned what you have? it required the rest laying flat no one ever asks why they all look just like you all look just like you they all look just like you
