lyrics

could you just lean a little more
allegory achieved
bent yet it seems less is more
leave it behind
to war

think it's time I gave up my face
lately I've been thinking I'm so over these
limits of my skin and this place
lately I quit caring if you see this from the wrong angle

syncopation the theme
deviator
meddle an test my eye
no need to deceive nor fear regret
shift in the view

think it's time I gave up this face
lately I've been thinking I'm so over these
walls but they've been keeping me safe
lately I been caring if you see this from the wrong angle

dream up meanings for right and wrong
isolate me until I'm gone
head shove, meaning to step aside
just stop and let em get you

I will leave it all up to me
I got more than enough for three lives
suck it up man you'll see none care if it's you
who moves in and out
inflate and a doubt
come back spread out
complete abound
breathe in and out
continue out
repeat it now
breathe in

think it's time I gave up my face
lately I've been thinking I'm so over these
walls but they've been keeping me safe
lately I been caring if you see this from the wrong angle

common misperception is the commonly accepted as the one and only way to catch a break and have a vision
common misperception is the commonly accepted as the one and only way to think

nothing to say
there is no need
silence makes
nothing to fear
no want or need
silence makes sense

think it's time I gave up my face
lately I've been thinking I'm so over these
limits of my skin and this place
lately I quit caring if you see this from the wrong angle

The Oxford Coma recommends:

vol. 1
by Gale

Gale takes the abrasive elements of metal and creates cohesion with good songwriting. They all have great chops, but most importantly, they know when to restrain and when to unleash. Great debut. The Oxford Coma
