White picket fences as the airwaves Move through the land of the free Apathetic is the world me we live in While the media keeps us at bay I'm not interested in safe Not the same old things We're the ones who want to shake things up here I'm not interested in safe Not the same old things We're the ones who want to shake things up here What if we're dreaming that we're dreaming? Are you feeling that awake? Twisting our thoughts around the notion Can you see what I see? (The difference lies within our means) I'm not interested in safe Not the same old things We're the ones who want to shake things up here We came here to find a way Not the same old games We're the ones who want to shake things up here

How many times should you ask yourself “What am I doing here?” I’ve waited forever, lost in song But I smile ear to ear I could awaken truth in bliss But, I am afraid to try So how long 'til I come back? We’ve come so far I can’t turn back We’re getting older and I can’t take you crawling up again So how long ‘til, how long ‘til I come back home? Trick the rascal, truth in mind Now is your conscience clear? What if it all turned out the same? Would I still be here? And what if my words have been misread? Please open my blind eye Honestly, you can’t shake me I haven’t been the one to need The broken stories The misery The lies that carry on It takes all my strength to frame An inch into a mile Cause and effect is all we know We're building to revile
4.
Take your burdens down to your mothers’ house Like the early days, these old memories You've given to me A piece of everything, at peace with nothing at all You've given to me And she said Boy, I've been hurt and boy I've been lost against the waves Boy I've been hurt and boy I've been lost against the waves The talk of the town, have I lost my way? I won't let you down, boy I've been hurt My love won't stray Paint a longer path, walk on broken glass Dancing in the rain with no hint of shame So, take what you need And see through everything, we gamble to watch the sky fall Forgiven, you're free And she said And my unhappiness is a weight I bear with the things I couldn’t do And my own happiness is a burden lifted when you first dropped off Your disguise

Alethea 05:01
A fleeting second is all it takes For our whole world to shift its place Even as the days go by Time stands still and here I lie Down beside you Today I feel like I Will be ok, be alright and I Tonight I feel like I Will be ok, be alright tonight Leave me here and let me be I'll be alright if you can see The light that burns inside of me Will take some time - move carefully Now beside you A burning candle lights the way But flickers momentarily I'll be here with you through it all As we stand up there’s a chance I'll fall Down beside you I see you lay there wondering How long you'll be on earth with me I hope that you can understand That time will heal, please take my hand I'll be with you

I am not afraid to I am not afraid to fall I am not afraid of Losing ground Guarded by these plaster walls Hiding from each other’s faults But never giving up on The ones we love Drowning out in mass opinion Lost within my own regrets In a world of reputations Am I the only one? I will make my way Pushing further every day To that which I will claim As my place here in this world Slowly roam the empty halls Scattered thoughts and chemicals As I find out that’s not How to live One time the angels sang for me But not a song of sympathy More a tune of peace, you see Yet they let me stay here We’re on the course for that collision With a taste of what’s to come Standing on the edge of vision I know that I can’t run I have no regrets So stay and place your bets In the search for evidence I will overcome

The Law 03:38
Own the night and paint the sky Any shade of black is fine We leap before we look Breathe in and taste the truth This is where I draw the line So stand down my friend Burn the edge of sympathy Cauterize it within me We’re broke by design Sleep with the lights turned on And keep the curtains tightly drawn When you break me down We're all but ordinary The law is all but truth And are you going to carry What's lost here within me I've found in you
8.
I killed the inception, I baited the truth I wandered in silence, I waited for you I followed my heart, did I mention to you When I traced the path, I started to lose So long... I've waited on you So long Crawling inside of my own self I doubt the cares of the world will ever run out Melt into one with the state that I'm in through cover of silence I feel it sink in So long... I’ve blamed this on you So long... I’ve framed this on you So long... So long Please don't lose track of the person I was I won't be afraid, don't be too quick to judge My heart is still open, it’s ready for you Show me the path and I'll follow you through If you say this, I'll come If you say this If you mean it, you've won Do you mean it? If you say this, you'll come Should I say this? So long

about

RENDERING is the debut album from rock-alternative band PLAIN AS GHOSTS. The album draws on deep, personal experiences derived through love, loss and life. The intimate lyrics spark an outlook of hope and integrity which comes as a refreshing take on a genre typically fuelled by anger and aggression. The music is described as heavy and lyrically directed with hints of melodic ambience.
