Nothing can stop us

I can feel you dreamin' of me

Name:
Location: Detroit, Michigan, United States

I never much liked the flaps over zippers, needles, ovens, lawn mowers, or swimming. I love my Les Paul, and every song I've written with or without it.

Infest

in the shadows of towers
we rage against the sky
call out the cowards
who avert their eyes

this twisted structure
erodes from within
clings to its foundation
until the bitter end

you will never know my name
until your paper castles
all explode in flame
then you'll know that it's too late
you will pay the price
for how you fucked the human race

We've died for liberty
Eyes fraught with defiance
You commit forgery
Infest to force compliance

In our very own homes
Retake the swamps and hills with stones
For flags and fathers we die young

pull the wool
Over thine own eyes
the shepherd is the piper
leads you to your demise
(Life lives as I decide!)

All the time
We lose the sight of your disguises
Simplify this plan to bring upon the demise
Of this STATE
Of emergency we're in
We got to rip out this corruption
Rethink the bliss
We're blessed
Forever sleeping, heading West
Replacing carriages with chests
In jest? No!
We just know
That we are the people
And we will not quarter kings

break the silence
the promise
the balance
the separating walls
the windows of the palace

downpressed, united
nothing left to lose
to the enemies of man:
"we will not bow to you"
"we will not bow to you"

The secret dossier
That holds us to this blade
Exposed with cyanide,
Silk, and plots from the shade

Your knaving, raving hands
Grip one last neck
You stand
Behold! Behold! (gang vox)
E pluribus unum

in the shadows of towers
rage against the sky
call out the cowards
who avert their eyes

infest
infect
infiltrate
obsessed
no rest
no rest till we annihilate

you will never know my name
until your paper castles
all explode in flame
then you'll know that it's too late
you will pay the price
for how you fucked...
you will never know my name
until your paper castles
all explode in flame
then you'll know that it's too late
you will pay the price
for how you fucked...
for how you fucked the human race

Figured it may as well get posted. Finished the lyrics that I wrote for this a while ago, but the other part was written by EKP. This is the product as it currently exists, but that's not to say I won't add or alter something to it. Most of the altering I do with songs is on the melodic level and is in regards to HOW I sing it, not what I sing, which goes unnoticed when you just look at the lyrics anyways.
