don't be light, my darling by The Ugly Facade

tired of commerce. i disappear in the commerce. always a day late and a dollar short. i am not here.

Won't you save me


Hold me gently


I have suffered


Lift me upward

Stuck in the riptide


Smile by the wayside


Help me I'm drowning


Wave barely frowning

Can you hear me calling


Hold me up I'm falling



Feign me a rescue


Thought I should test you


Went as expected


You unaffected



Can you hear me calling


Hold me up I'm falling


And my lungs are filling


Was the past worth killing



Don't act like you ever


Don't act like you ever


Don't act like you ever


Don't act like you ever


You never showed up to save me so


I guess I'll just have to let you go


I thought that I knew what friends were for


You don't got to save me anymore

(I'll forget you)



You went and you left me all alone


One day you will reap what you have sown


I'll sing it until it's set in stone


I still got my goddamn microphone

(I'll forget you)

You never showed up to save me so


I guess I'll just have to let you go

Apropos, the saint should show


As soon as I stand on my own

Apropos, the saint should show


As soon as I stand on my own

“Whether you are man or woman, rich or poor, dependent or free, happy or unhappy; whether you bore in your elevation the splendour of the crown or in humble obscurity only the toil and heat of the day; whether your name will be remembered for as long as the world lasts, and so will have been remembered as long as it lasted, or you are without a name and run namelessly with the numberless multitude; whether the glory that surrounded you surpassed all human description, or the severest and most ignominious human judgment was passed on you -- eternity asks you and every one of these millions of millions, just one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not, whether so in despair that you did not know that you were in despair, or in such a way that you bore this sickness concealed deep inside you as your gnawing secret, under your heart like the fruit of a sinful love, or in such a way that, a terror to others, you raged in despair. If then, if you have lived in despair, then whatever else you won or lost, for you everything is lost, eternity does not acknowledge you, it never knew you, or, still more dreadful, it knows you as you are known, it manacles you to yourself in despair!”

Shadows on the wall Stuck in our caves Machines dancing in harmony with their masters Waking to the fire The energy of slaves The dream violently burning in the disaster No one can help No one can help No one can help This is something you can live through No one can help No one can help No one can help This is something you can get through We built a world where every thought was onscreen Demanding regimes to change faster But in our youth we were too quick to build the guillotines Cause winning was all that ever mattered Off with our heads! No one can help No one can help No one can help This is something you can live through No one can help No one can help No one can help This is something you can get through There was a time when all compassion dissolved And nothing got solved The world had devolved turning backwards No one held to account for all the death and all the despair The pace of extinction tiptoeing faster No one can help No one can help No one can help This is something you can live through No one can help No one can help No one can help This is something you can get through God bless a miracle obscene The bottomless greed, the would-be kings The country on fire that pulses with youth The disparate wealth and the failing of truth (Writing on the wall again) (Make our mother great again) (Survival is my only friend) (Terrified of what may come) And I'm standing in line And I'm learning to wait For the bitterness of nothing And I I cannot stay And no one can help I’m so stuck in self I prayed for a crisis And god answered well

Dontbelight Stripped 100521 by The Ugly Facade

running scared

in a world that’s theirs

whistling in the dark

screaming flesh not fair

singing hey

why can’t it wait

just a semblance of

just a human touch

just to write us off

hurts the heart too much

and I wish I could sell my soul

but the robots can make rock n roll

all my heroes are rapists

who won’t pay reparations

and my healers are fakists

and the path to their faith just

costs six easy payments

and if you act right away

they can throw in a savior

you can kill them today

well I can’t afford shit

and I would sell my soul

but the robots can make rock n roll

but the robots can make rock n roll

I am broke as shit

I would sell my soul

but the robots can make rock and roll

the robots have taken control

and were better off under control

i need a bath

need to wash the stink of human off

WhereOkComesFrom_version by The Ugly Facade

Everything is happening

To the corpse we’re inhabiting

The hollow grace

The chosen face

The padded place

We’re happy in

The happy potion does the trick

So none of us does get too sick

In happy cycles

Cyclicals

In loops of laughing

Hahahahahahahaha

You paint the world

the broadest strokes

We’re cornered in

We start to choke

And all two colors of the rainbow

Drown us in the apathy

(THE HAPPY HAPPY)

Sweet fucking rat race

‘Tis of thee

Conveyor belt of misery

An empty sold out factory

Where life is happy

All the time (hahahaha)

Is it everything you are?

Is it everything you wanted it to be?

There is a price I pay for every heart

Beat

Wasted

all the days away

When we were a part

Sweetly

missing the space we made

Gently

Kissing

goodbye the days

There is a place I built

To suffer the storm

Beneath all of the shame and guilt

Becoming unborn

The sky will crack

I’ll sit on the moment

There’s time to wait

But what if ok never comes?

Only the foolish ones

Fly to the sun

So let’s stay in the dark and wait

But I am not done

And I got bored

I pondered the question

Enough

Jump in

You are not where ok comes from

I know you’ve kissed the sun

You’re not the only one

I know you’ve come undone

You are not where ok comes from

And god will say

You’ve pondered the question

Enough

Jump in

without hesitation

and you

will know

the peace you’ve been seeking

my friend

you are not where ok comes from
