I am the glass, I am the hammer I am the pattern I may shatter, I am the shrapnel So hard to swallow I am the internal bleeding One more eternal reason Paranoia keeps me company Classic lines for the cliched times Always seem to get me through these awkward moments I’ll nurse this beer until last call If you keep looking over your shoulder You’re never gonna see what’s next And I know you’ll want to see it coming These dreams, they may be fragile But I can’t let go Won’t let go Step right up and let them destroy you

I’ll wait until it snows For you my love Until I dig my grave These nights are way too short To cut myself and count the scars We tried so hard to become The people we wanted to be Ever since we left our hometowns For the cities we call home Now this train has left, we’ll jump on the next one Take us all away from here Where we can be more Find more Try more If we ever get the chance But somehow I don’t think we will At least not tonight After all this time I’d thought you’d understand That this journey has taken a lot out of all of us And we’re not even halfway there Now we’re approaching the half-life of cities After all this time you still don’t know

Let me warn you now You may not like who I am When the lights go out It’s Friday night, where my bitches at? You know I got some mansplaining to do I’m so fucking sick and tired of this sobriety holding me back From telling all you people just exactly what I think of you Oh I’m coming up so you better get this party started You want to question my intentions But it’s only a deflection, it’s not the reason why Every word I said was all a lie I made you believe my alibi I wish I felt something when I watched you cry I’m sorry I’m so weak inside

Faith, my Lord, was all we ever had Our sons were born to work the fields and till the soil Life mundane but little do they know That miles from here men are on their way They’re storming through the kitchen doors Machetes blazing in their shaking hands Desperation is their only course The children first, they do not care This is murder in it’s purest form Motivated by not love or greed The bodies piled on the porch As gasoline is poured throughout the house A single match is dropped onto the floor They killed the horses They burnt the house down They set fire to the cornfields The sins of the father handed down As we watch history repeating itself One more prayer has gone unanswered The sun sets upon the ashes of justice
5.
A spark of light The hammer hits the spike So hot and wet As bullets tear through flesh Call out the name Call out and claim your just reward Spit out the blood Collecting in your lungs I won’t be part of your plans anymore I won’t play God with their lives in my hands So I may die, but so will you by my side I just wish I could kiss my wife one last time Spit out the blood It’s pooling on the floor It’s much too late to hit that failsafe I told you not to touch that pressure valve Now look at what you’ve made me do Clear out the station Please save yourselves before it’s too late The water’s rising To wash us away without a trace

The Calling 04:44
The radiation permeates my body The silence It envelopes me and lasts for what seems like a lifetime Whisper softly Like a lover in an endless sea I’ll meet you in the morning at the embassy All I ever wanted was to set you free Whisper softly In the times that you carry me Reservation card in the theatre seat Wrapping up the corpse in the tattered sheets Whisper softly In the way that you know I need Look upon my face, why can’t you see That you really are just a part of me? The dimensions of this room empty They echo on for the moment So few memories The parts that makes a sound fall dead at our feet Meeting ends

about

Change Methodical Edmonton, Alberta

Change Methodical debuted in 2000 bridging the gap between the established technical skatepunk
of the late 90s with the emerging screamo/post hardcore sound of the early 00s. Winding, unpredictable songs filled with fury and emotion brought them to the forefront of the diy punk scene in Alberta until their disbandment in 2010. ... more
