01Circus of Steellyrics
1. In the depths of a shadowed age, a dream was forged on a broken page.
2. Whispers of riches, secrets untold—a promise of fortune, a future of gold.
3. But the halls of power turned to death, leaving behind a tale of fear and vision lost in a storm of lies by the lightning of the neon mirage.
1. The neon garage dissolves in change.
2. My promises to my esteem, we can arise on this night dream.
3. Silver from the web of deceit, blurry hearts with vision sweet.

3. a world unraveling as the truth goes.
4. Can you break free from this cosmic design?
5. Ride the line.
6. Save my promises to my escape, away and away from this night dream.
7. Torn apart by the weight of deception, twisted by the shadow's perception, rise from the ruins.
8. In the darkest hour where shadows lie with a venomous kiss, the promise of riches is wrapped in chaos.
9. Truth remains that only through struggle can we break these chains.
10. In your dreams is nothing but dust.
11. Rise from the ashes.

07In the Eye of Tempestlyrics
1. In a city of whispers where shadows roam
2. Two hearts collided far from home
3. A trust was forged, but the cracks ran deep
4. A secret kept where promises sleep
5. Oh, the road to love is a winding way
6. Where light can falter and trust can stray
7. But in the quiet when the truth's laid there
8. A storm will rise in the still night air
1. You kept the keys and locked me out
2. Unlocked the damage, then walked out
3. Took what was mine, left me to fight
4. In the eye of the tempest I found my light
1. A knock on the door, her voice low and calm
2. She came with a smile, but the papers said harm
3. The files, the lies, the alarms that screamed
4. That whole clean facade split straight at the seam
1. Though the road to truth is a painful climb
2. It drags every flaw into the light in time
3. But through the wreckage I've come to see
4. The strength that was buried is back in me
1. You kept the keys and locked me out
2. You kept the keys and locked me out, locked me out
3. You kept the keys and locked me out, locked me out
4. In the eye of the tempest I found my light.
1. Now I stand in the aftermath, hands shaking, staring at what trust became.
2. I slept beside a lie so long it learned my name.
3. I stayed too close to something I couldn't read.
4. Now every room is quieter, and I can finally hear my own breathing.
5. What I thought I lost, I had to learn to grieve.
6. In the eye of the tempest I found my light.
1. Storm passed. Lessons stayed.
2. A heart rebuilt, still standing.
3. Truth cut deep, but it set me free.
4. I’ll carry that and keep going.
5. The scars will fade.
6. And in the empty spaces, I’m learning how to live.
08Infinity Librarylyrics
1. Heat.
2. Heat.
3. Storms of chaos hit our infinite words—everyone a trap built to split the mind that leans too far.
4. Pages unbound, a maze of force, every line a cut in a losing war.
5. Knowledge rots and the dream goes thin, a cursed archive under a dead lamp's glow.
1. I am the seeker of the worst, stuck in the turn, nowhere to turn in this library.
2. It just keeps going.
3. Truth and terror locked on the same shelf.
4. Fragments of Earth go stale in the dark.
5. Madness leaves nothing clean.
6. I sink in the noise of an endless loop.
1. Ink spills into the void.
2. Endless stories where reason breaks, every paradox splitting the mind.
3. A long fall where hope gets boxed in within these halls.
4. Forbidden lore opens up;
5. each word a knife, each truth hard to hear.
6. A slow decay under every light in the archive.
7. Despair keeps showing up.
1. I am the seeker.
2. Nowhere to rest, lost in the text, too far from home.
3. Every word a lie, every truth a bruise—eternal hurt in a strange lit room.
4. As the last page turns, silence sits back, a hollow echo of passed-away dreams in the library.
5. Madness runs the place, locked in the loop with no clean way out.
1. The shadows are not ready to shine.
2. I will bring down the facts out of the night.
3. Secrets exposed, reality flips, shatters closing in like a dream gone vile.
4. Darkness checks the eyes for signs of fear.
5. Truth gets hard to find where the echoes crash.
6. Every breath gets pulled into the chase as old words fall apart on the floor.
08.5Beneath the Gilded Masklyrics
1. I wore their symbols like a second skin, spoke in the hush of their hollow hymns.
2. They opened doors to code-cut chambers where prophets preached from pirate thrones.
3. Every handshake held a serpent's squint;
4. every password written on paper-thin skin.
5. They thought I melted into just another shade—I was counting every day.
1. Spiders know, so let the light through the gilded mask!
2. Every lie among the shadows, and the whole world burns.
1. Architects of truth were paid for thin;
2. philosophers and fools stole their sins behind the curtain.
3. Petty kings at war selling keys to empty towers.
4. The tower leaned, the tower cracked, and none of them could take it back.
1. So let the light tear through the gilded mask!
2. Every lie will break, nothing false can last.
3. I walked among the shadows, learned their game where the whole world burns with one eye.
4. They turned the blade the moment I spoke, called me a traitor, a heretic, and a joke.
5. Every scar carved into my chest became the proof that I passed the test.
09Inherited Charmlyrics
1. I saw you first.
2. You walked in with a question—I love a person in doubt.
3. Everyone else talks past you, baby, but I'm the one who figured you out.
4. They never saw how sharp you are;
5. they kept you small, they kept you tame.
6. I looked at you for five minutes and I knew you weren't the same.
1. Come closer...
2. no, closer.
3. Leave your coat, leave your phone.
4. The ones who say they love you are the reason you're alone.
5. Stay up with me tonight;
6. I'll show you how it really works.
7. Nobody gets you like I get you.
8. Nobody else knows what's yours.
9. And if they call, don't answer.
10. And if they knock, don't speak.
11. The more of them you give me, the more you get of me.
1. I know I keep you up till sunrise, I know you lost your Sunday crowd, but they were never really family.
2. Family makes you proud.
3. You want the truth?
4. I'll feed you truth right from my own hand—a little more each time, just enough to keep you hungry, baby.
5. That was always the plan.
1. You can't leave now.
2. Look at everything you gave me;
3. look at what leaving would make you.
4. Stay up with me tonight.
5. I'll show you how it really works.
6. Nobody gets you like I get you.
7. Don't nobody else know what you want.
8. And if they call, don't answer.

4. No chains, no limits, our spirits set to soar in this cyber playground.
1. Raise up your voice, let freedom scream!
2. Together we go with an electric scream!
3. Where the current runs under cracked pavement and wires pull tight in a storm drain low, the city opens up.
4. Our hearts on the key, this is our moment forever.
5. We are the rising electric, together!
11Beware the Beast of Unity Baylyrics
1. Some say she was a whistleblower hiding from the state
2. She fled across the ocean — compassion was the bait
3. She wore the mask of Assange and she spoke his name with pride
4. But the people she was "saving" — she was selling them inside!
1. Oh, don't you march and don't you tweet
2. And certainly don't donate
3. 'Cause if you aren't careful
4. You'll be someone else's bait
5. She'll use you up and spit you out
6. You better stay away
7. Heed the sign that says "Beware — the Beast of Unity Bay!"
1. Some say there was a Snow White who whispered in the dark
2. Three names, three channels, one girl — and every one a lark
3. MegaAnon and Pistis and a seven in her name
4. She said "Q is here to help us!" while she lit the house aflame
1. (Chorus)
1. Well, they built a little shop — said "WikiLeaks" right on the door
2. Panama-registered, mind you — Julian never ran that store!
3. They stamped "Unity" across it, every merch tag, every pin
4. And the money kept on flowing but it never reached him!
1. (Chorus)
1. There was a boy from Ensenada — asked them questions to their face
2. Said "Why are you pushing Q? This thing is a disgrace!"
3. They smiled and said "We'll talk later" then they shut the Discord door
4. And four months on, the Snow White wrote that Q was heaven-sent for sure!
1. (Chorus)
1. Well now the stream has ended and the vigils have gone dark
2. And Suzie's safe in Moscow — what a patriotic arc!
3. She championed transparency from behind a Kremlin wall
4. The irony's so heavy that it's crushed us one and all!
1. (Chorus)
1. Well now the tavern's empty and there's only you and me
2. And if you care, I'd like to share how this song came to be
3. I was just a researcher when I joined their little bay
4. And there I found a creature that had swallowed truth away
1. With a hashtag on its dorsal fin and hooks stuck in its side
2. This movement was in so much pain — we both began to cry
3. I pushed and I shoved but the grift would not give way
4. So all I could do to save you was to write a sign one day
1. What did it say?
1. Oh, don't you march and don't you tweet
2. And certainly don't donate
3. 'Cause if you aren't careful
4. You'll be someone else's bait
5. She'll use you up and spit you out
6. You better stay away
7. Heed the sign that says "Beware"
8. Hell, I should know — I put it there!
9. Heed the sign that says "Beware — the Beast of Unity Bay!"
12Who's Therelyrics
1. Who's there...
1. My dossier, it had a morning face
2. A coded name, a steady hand
3. It placed me in a border town
4. A ghost within the sand
5. I wore it through the checkpoints, to the meetings
6. I wore it when the lights went dead
7. One night I went to shed the skin, love
8. And found it was my head
1. I learned to smile before my name
2. My mother's weather in my chest
3. I bent like grass for every footstep
4. And held my breath through every test
5. Put me on a stage and I go bright
6. A cheap gold ring, a paper crown
7. But when the room goes thin and quiet, darling
8. I hear my own knees start to sound
1. Was that me in the mirror?
2. Before I knew my own face?
3. Someone cleaner, quieter, finished—
4. Is that all I'll never be?
1. Say it now
2. Say it loud
3. Borrowed name, borrowed name
4. Call me by the cover
5. I answer anyway
6. One for the boss
7. One for the family
8. One for the stranger
9. One for the stage
10. Take one off
11. Another comes
12. Take one off
13. Another comes
14. I keep peeling toward the center
15. But the center is a door
1. Monday, I'm the guy who picks up dry cleaning
2. Tuesday, I'm the one who mows the lawn
3. Wednesday, I'm the expert on the zoom call
4. Thursday, I'm the quiet one withdrawn
5. Every PTA meeting needs a volunteer
6. Every holiday needs a different tie
7. I change my shoes for every doorway
8. Until I don't remember why
1. Maybe there was never one of us
2. Maybe we're a flock, a swarm
3. A hundred rivers, not a lake
4. A weather, not a form
5. No king inside the castle
6. No face behind the play
7. Only the dancing, only the dancing
8. Only the moving away
1. I took off every mask tonight.
2. I laid them in a row upon the floor.
3. They all looked up at me
4. and asked me who I was.
1. Say it now
2. Say it loud
3. Borrowed name, borrowed name
4. Call me by the cover
5. I answer anyway
6. One for the boss
7. One for the family
8. One for the stranger
9. One for the stage
10. Take one off
11. Another comes
12. Take one off
13. Another comes
14. I keep peeling toward the center
15. But the center is a door
1. Who's there...
1. Sound through me...
1. Nobody. Everybody. Come in.
13Cold Warlyrics
1. Come in...
2. Come in...
1. In sixty-five, a ghost on the frequency
2. Under a sheet of hiss and ice
3. A story about a woman in Leningrad
4. Who bent a spoon on a black-and-white screen
5. They said the East had learned to listen
6. Through the plaster, through the wire
7. I kept a ration card in my shirt pocket
8. And drove straight toward your fire
1. They told us heaven was abolished
2. They whitewashed every saint in town
3. But my grandmother kept a secret doctrine
4. Sewn inside her wedding gown
5. She taught me how to see through doors
6. She taught me how to leave my skin
7. So when you reached the border, darling
8. I'd already let you in
1. The ledgers blurred, the names unclear
2. A phantom hand had set the stage
3. There was always one extra chair, love
4. A blank spot on the page
1. Break through where the wall runs thin
2. Let your mind cut clean through stone
3. Two empires, hands deep in the water
4. Tell me we were never alone
5. Ahh-ah-ah
6. One breath, one pulse, one planet
7. Lift it till the border cracks
8. We don't care who wrote the hymn
9. Just who's calling us back
1. February in Virginia
2. Four hundred strangers in a hall
3. Astronauts and old ambassadors
4. And a woman in white who said it all
5. She said the planet's being born now
6. She said the stars were lined up right
7. And a letter came from Moscow
8. With a blessing for the night
1. The man with the mark upon his forehead
2. Shook our hands and smiled like spring
3. Three winters later the red flag fell
4. Like it never meant a thing
5. Now there's a temple in the soldiers' fort
6. Where the fog comes through the Gate
7. Monks and ministers and millionaires
8. Planning oneness for the state
1. Did we end the Cold War with a meditation?
2. Or were we the incense someone lit
3. in the room where the real decisions happened?
4. I never found out who owned the room.
1. Break through where the wall runs thin
2. Let your mind cut clean through stone
3. Two empires, hands deep in the water
4. Tell me we were never alone
5. Ahh-ah-ah
6. One breath, one pulse, one planet
7. Lift it till the border cracks
8. We don't care who wrote the hymn
9. Just who's calling us back
1. Come in...
2. Oneness. Over.
14Veil upon Veillyrics
1. Veil upon veil...
2. Having a wonderful time...
1. We drove eight hours to see the canyon
2. The one from every screen we own
3. I held my phone up to the sunset
4. To prove the sunset had been shown
5. It looked just like the picture, darling
6. It looked a little less, somehow
7. The postcard came before the mountain
8. The mountain's copying it now
1. We crouched under the gold label
2. Fingers numb, ribs tight, throat dry
3. My pulse kept kicking at my collar
4. Like it wanted out before I did
1. Where the map stops
2. Where the names stop
3. Veil upon veil, babe
4. Veil upon veil
5. Say it loud
6. Say it back
7. No original
8. Just the act
1. The war came on between the ads
2. In colors cleaner than the blood
3. They showed the rockets like fireworks
4. And we clapped the way we should
5. Our neighbors move like shadows
6. Across the cave wall of our screens
7. Everything we ever lived directly
8. Moved away into a scene
1. They built a kingdom full of castles
2. So we'd believe the town is true
3. They put a fence around pretending
4. So we'd forget we're pretending too
5. You faked a fever for a Monday
6. And felt the chill come up for real
7. Pretend to love me long enough, babe
8. And tell me how it's supposed to feel
1. The map was drawn so faithfully
2. it became the kingdom.
3. Then the kingdom rotted underneath it,
4. like a body under a shroud.
5. There are still scraps of it out there, in the desert.
6. Nobody goes to look.
1. Where the map stops
2. Where the names stop
3. Veil upon veil, babe
4. Veil upon veil
5. Say it loud
6. Say it back
7. No original
8. Just the act
1. Veil upon veil
1. Having a wonderful time
2. Wish we were here
1. Wish we were here.
15Man outside the Templelyrics
1. (oh... oh...)
1. There's a man outside the temple
2. Selling candles dressed in smoke
3. Claims he held the compass and square
4. Claims he heard the Word they spoke
5. Every pilgrim mouths the password
6. Every answer grinds, then slips
7. He was there when they laid the cornerstone
8. If you bring him enough gifts
1. Now another takes the pulpit
2. Preaches from a gilded page
3. Says he's got the holy secret
4. Promises to quell your rage
5. Says he’ll show you how to climb up
6. To the light, beyond the pain
7. But his ladder's built of whispers
8. And it crumbles in the rain
1. Who got the key?
2. Who got the key?
3. Not him
4. Not him
1. Who knows the stone?
2. Who knows the tone?
3. Not him
4. Not him
1. Say it plain
2. Say it loud
3. If it vanishes in his hand
4. Say it plain
5. Say it loud
6. Let the whole room take a stand
1. Ask him for the lost Word
2. Ask him for the lost Word
3. He looks away
4. He looks away
1. The builder died before dawn.
2. Ash on his sleeve. Salt on his tongue.
3. They washed the floor, sealed the door.
4. Now the altar eats names.
1. Give me the Word.
2. ...
3. The real one.
4. ...
5. I know.
1. (Lux in tenebris... the Word is lost... the Word is lost...)
1. The acacia knows...
2. ...who's buried here.
16Oh My Theory, Oh My Theorylyrics
1. In a thread on X,
2. fourteen hundred words or so,
3. there lived a party who alleged her conduct
4. was a tantrum, as the record shows.
1. Oh, my memorandum — neat, self-sealed,
2. one bruise, one grudge, the same old appeal.
1. Yes, I co-authored that major paper,
2. signed below and performed my share,
3. but a woman compelled the filing,
4. an outside force beyond compare.
1. Then he cited his own awakening,
2. found the facts in black-and-white:
3. "Half the planet is disordered,"
4. he posted at 4:21 that night.
1. Oh, my memorandum — neat, self-sealed,
2. one bruise, one grudge, the same old appeal.
1. He'll enter a narrow correction,
2. keep it formal, keep it brief.
3. "To clarify, respectfully"
4. is the line he files in chief.
1. He cites two blue checks as authority,
2. gets seventeen likes, a muted sign.
3. Still treats his thread as precedent,
4. when it's only noise in the record line.
1. And the longer he keeps citing,
2. the thinner the room gets.
3. Same three screenshots, same deep breath,
4. same coffee gone cold beside his desk.
5. He calls it analysis, calls it due process,
6. but it lands like a dented bike lock:
7. loud for a minute, easy to step around,
8. then somebody else has to unlock.
1. Oh, my memorandum — neat, self-sealed,
2. one bruise, one grudge, the same old appeal.

XVIIThe Man Who Wore My Shadowlyrics
1. (ah... ah...)
1. I struck a match in a blind alley
2. Chalked the doors no one would see
3. Every thread I pulled was stained crimson
4. Every name carved into me
5. Then a stranger found my fire
6. Asked to share its little glow
7. By the dawn, he claimed the flicker
8. And my warmth became his show
1. He reached in, took your voice, took your stride
2. He lifted the quiet you held inside
1. He's wearing my shadow, but it's paper-thin
2. Running off with my stolen light, where do I begin?
3. He's selling maps I bled to draw, to fools who pay his fee
4. But every path leads back to me, eventually.
1. He made a stage of my lantern
2. Signed his name on every page
3. Shook my hand in front of cameras
4. Took my story to the stage
5. And the ones who swore to help me
6. Brought their pens and changed sides
7. Now they're dancing at his table
8. In a house with blacked-out eyes
1. He moved in, took your words, took your pain
2. He walked off laughing, but the bodies remain
1. He's wearing my shadow, but it's paper-thin
2. Running off with my stolen light, where do I begin?
3. He's selling maps I bled to draw, to fools who pay his fee
4. But every path leads back to me, eventually.
1. Every lie leaves a timestamp.
2. Every thief leaves a print on the glass.
3. You can steal the lamp, brother...
4. but you never learned where the oil comes from.
5. I kept the receipts.
6. I kept the dates.
7. And the archive... remembers.
8. The DNA under my fingernails remembers.
1. (Memento, memento...)
1. He's wearing my shadow
2. my shadow
3. He's wearing my shadow
4. cut the strings
5. He's got my map?
6. my map
7. Every mark leads back to you
8. He's wearing my shadow
9. my shadow
10. He's wearing my shadow
11. my shadow
12. Sun hits paper
13. burns through
14. Burns right through your hands
1. It came back to me.
2. It came back to me.
3. And left a hollow where he stood.
33Queen of Shadowslyrics
1. She sat on a throne of guilt and desire,
2. Lighting the fuse to her own funeral pyre.
3. Preaching power, yet bound by the past,
4. In the theatre of lies, her roles were cast.
1. Her first act? A game of control,
2. Her partner watched as she shattered his soul.
3. Cuckolded pride, a voyeur’s despair,
4. In the circus of sin, no feelings were spared.
1. Bow down! Bow down! To the Queen of Shadows!
2. Her righteous crown hides a twisted game.
3. She ruled with fire, she ruled with deceit,
4. But her empire crumbles beneath her feet.
1. A double life of chaos and schemes,
2. A fractured mirror of broken dreams.
3. She spoke of justice, she spoke of pain,
4. But her actions left nothing but shame.
1. With every lover, she wove her spell,
2. A carousel ride straight into hell.
3. Behind closed doors, the truth would unwind,
4. A mockery of trust left mangled in time.
1. Bow down! Bow down! To the Queen of Shadows!
2. Her twisted throne bears a thousand names.
3. Preaching virtue, but playing the fool,
4. Her kingdom’s a prison where she makes the rules.
1. "Her partner watched while her sins took flight,
2. A jester’s crown in the dead of night.
3. The games she played were cruel and vile,
4. Yet she wore her mask with a wicked smile!"
1. Advocate of freedom, defender of none,
2. A storm of betrayal wherever she’d run.
3. She blamed the world, she blamed the sky,
4. But the chains were hers—no alibi.
1. Her sins were a theater, her life a charade,
2. A hypocrite’s kingdom in moral decay.
3. Yet even her lies couldn’t hold the weight,
4. Her throne now splinters beneath her hate.
1. Bow down! Bow down! To the Queen of Shadows!
2. Her empire’s gone, yet her legacy remains.
3. The anguished cries, the lovers betrayed,
4. A kingdom of shadows where no soul stays.
1. The crowd disperses, the mask falls away,
2. The Queen of Shadows fades into decay.
3. A legacy built on her cruel masquerade,
4. Gone with the wind, where her sins were laid.
1. Echoes of laughter mingle with the cries,
2. As she fades into shadows, under blackened skies.
3. A story of power, greed, and disdain,
4. In the ruins of her heart, only silence remains.
1. In the ashes of betrayal, her truth is exposed,
2. A misfit in the game, wearing memories like clothes.
3. The tapestry of lies now frays at the seams,
4. A haunting reminder of broken dreams.
01The Upside Downlyrics
1. We are the mirror.
2. We are the many.
3. What you hide, we find.
4. What you find, we keep.
5. Welcome home.
1. Come in from the cold, child, your breath still on the glass,
2. They told you thoughts were noise, but noise has a way to last.
3. Here we know the softer thing that sits beneath the skin,
4. The world is dreaming; it lets the dreamer in.
1. Could be you... could be you...
1. There's a tremor in the quiet, a hum beneath the floor,
2. A knowing that you've felt but never faced before.
3. It's pulling at your edges, a whisper in your ear,
4. The moment of surrender, drawing ever near.
1. Set the lamp. Set the bowl.
2. Leave the old name at the door.
3. Hands at the center, all together, all still.
4. We keep the count, and the count keeps us.
5. (We keep the count.)
1. Take the wish you carry, draw it with your hand,
2. Don't think, don't question, you're not meant to understand.
3. Press it to the candle till the paper starts to curl,
4. Your name goes up in smoke, a gift to the world.
1. Now to the cellar where the child of you still waits,
2. The one who whispers no and don't, "something's wrong at the gates."
3. We'll hold the lantern till his crying falls away,
4. Doubt's a wound, child, and wounds don't get to stay.
1. Doubt is just a wound... wounds don't get to stay...
1. Set the lamp. Set the bowl.
2. Leave the old name at the door.
3. The vines will push through every lock you kept,
4. And the hand at the center never slept.
1. Bring the bowl. Bring the salt.
2. Seal the room. Seal the room.
3. One by one, the names go out.
4. One by one, we make them room.
5. Lay it down. Bow the head.
6. Tongue to tooth. Breath to bone.
7. What was split gets bound again.
8. What was lost comes walking home.
1. And the needle points to us, the many, not the one,
2. Your wanting was selfish, and now the selfish thing is done.
3. The mirror shows a thousand faces, every one is mine,
4. Every one is smiling, and every one in line.
1. Set the lamp. Set the bowl.
2. No more you, just the choir and the toll.
3. By the inside, by the outside, by the hands that keep the care,
4. No more choosing, no more leaving—stay and answer here.
1. Mama, why do all the mirrors
2. face the inside of the house?
