lyrics
09 - Sorrow
The Progressing One - Script
The Human Progression - Script
Inundate!
I feel the pressure.
I feel the weight.
I feel the weather.
I cannot wait,
In wonder of whether,
Or not I make,
My own life better.
Do I create?
How would I measure?
Or desecrate,
What causes displeasure,
Or even relate,
Without any leisure,
To undertake,
What makes a life better?
I will never toe the line,
Only living life that's mine,
Through the experiences,
I consign;
If you never go the distance,
Then I promise you will miss this:
If I never go the distance,
Then I promise I will miss this…
I'm not missing out on life, this time,
Or any time.
Let go the sorrow, it will tear our world apart,
We'll build tomorrow from the pieces of our heart,
We'll overflow onto our canvas from the start,
Now that we know to make our world a work of art.
Alleviate! (Alleviate!)
I raise the pressure.
I lift the weight. (I lift the weight!)
I brave the weather.
I no longer wait, (I no longer wait!)
In wonder of whether,
Or not I make, (Or not I make!)
My own life better. (BETTER!)
I can create, (I can create!)
Without any measure,
Or desecrate, (Or desecrate!)
What causes displeasure,
When I undertake, (When I undertake!)
All of life's pleasures,
Free of the hate, (Free of the hate!)
Of those who could never.
I will never toe the line,
Only living life that's mine,
Through the experiences,
I consign;
If you never go the distance,
Then I promise you will miss this:
If I never go the distance,
Then I promise I will miss this…
I'm not missing out on life, this time,
(No I'm not missing out…)
Or any time.
(Oooh!)
The Stagnating One - Script
The Human Stagnation - Script
[The Stagnating One Character Role is performed by Andy Gruhin.]
Where's your evidence? (Evidence…)
It sounds like you've stopped making sense? (Making sense…)
Always running around, claiming what you've found,
But you can't pay your debts?
(Pay your debts, pay your debt, pay, pay, pay…)
If you don't want to pray, (Pray…)
Or follow in the others' way, (Way…)
Well what if you're wrong, do you still belong,
When you've been led astray?
The Progressing One - Script
The Human Progression - Script
Let go the sorrow,
It will tear our world apart,
We'll build tomorrow,
From the pieces of our heart,
We'll overflow onto,
Our canvas from the start,
Now that we know to make,
Our world a work of art.
I can create,
Without any measure,
Or desecrate,
What causes displeasure,
When I undertake,
All of life's pleasures,
Free of the hate,
Of those who could never…

I like the fact that this guy is not in “omg I love djent so much I’ll only let *that* express in my songs” mode. With his friends he crafts thoughtful and diverse songs which can be either playful or touching.
