Black Horizon Songtext
von River Runner

We were so strung out
By the light and the dark
They polarize while the soul weeps heavily
Torn from the eyes of the sublime

This is the only way to roll away the time
To cultivate the mind
Sorting through just to implicate the lies
Dissolving everything
I commit to the vision despite the fluff and derision
No I don′t earn a commission, but I don't ask for a dime
It′s all comin' down anyway so we can just stay alive

Sometimes I hope I'm gone and never coming back
To wake up without the spirits pulling on my neck

So sophisticated are the ways that you let yourself down
There′s always a place and time for reprisal
Choosing just to live under the reign of a crown
With nothing left but defiance for survival

This is all we have left


Because you trade away the mind
For thoughts devoid of love and pride
Bereft of seminal changes, it′s hard to maintain it
The anger bubbles up inside
And then explodes into your life
It's hard to contain it, but who are we blaming?

So sophisticated are the ways that you let yourself down
There′s always a place and time for reprisal
Choosing just to live under the reign of a crown
With nothing left but defiance for survival

And so you sold away the change to play the games that last
But what am I asking?
It's all distracting from the meaning to grasp
I′m filled with regret and shame, but that too shall pass
Covered in scars, bruised and bleeding
Endlessly grieving for the plasmic ash
But the lies are receding, how do we even
Hope for something else?
Maybe it's better if there′s nothing left
Bereft of seminal changes, who are we blaming?
Constant haranguing of the tepid self

We were always looking inward for the higher self
But it's way out of here, so we're comin′ back down
It′s a little bit tough with a raw deal
But it's all right again
