Sacrifice 04:02
V1 In exchange for seething love Deep inside your cranium I want to change all the things that make you you CHORUS All the bad dreams and the sordid lies I cannot be what you sacrifice V2 Feeling strange to be alone Carrying the burden Even if you don’t ever want me to Coda And it’s you that doesn’t see the truth And it’s you that cannot see the truth And it’s you that will not see the truth
2.
V1 So you have come again And you are in love again I wait and see…miraculously And find the tree of divinity CHORUS Always searching in the past It’s not your first and not your last I am not the one you want Carry on and try again Insanity will be the end I am not the one you want V2 Remember when we said, “goodbye?” And you said, “I didn’t try” It seems so true, that we are through What did I do to be hated by you?
3.
Scared 04:02
V1 Are you afraid? Is it too late for you? The timing’s right – See you tonight Name the venue So get a head start – There are no miracles I know that it’s hard – There are no miracles CHORUS You’re running - You’re scared And you don’t know what to do You’re running - You’re scared And they’re coming after you RUN! V2 The warning’s gone And now you flee for life The speech is done The fires burn inside CODA I know that it’s hard There are no miracles
4.
V1 Everybody wants a real chance to prove themselves Everybody knows a tribal dance and not so well Think about it – Think about it It’s for a chosen few Photo finish – If you win this Do what you have to do CHORUS In the days of fame and fortune In the craze of fame and fortune In the haze of fame and fortune In the daze of fame and fortune V2 Sell your soul and maybe it will work – believe yourself All the hype and all the simple facts reveal themselves Think about it – think about it Is it really for you? In the lime light – it’s not right The failure avenue
5.
Tonight 03:49
V1 Darkness falls upon the world we know Slowly, it creates the night My worries are gone, and it feels just right Where were we when we were not alone? Questioning the thoughts, I fight Inevitability that feels just right. CHORUS I cannot say goodbye to you tonight V2 Feelings that had been forbidden, gone Quickly creeping out of sight My pain has subsided and it feels just right CODA Darkness falls upon the world we know Where were we when we were not alone?
6.
Consecrated 04:27
V1 See the beauty falling from your face All that shines bright seems to come from outer space Looking in from the places we don’t say No one cares about you if you are in second place CHORUS The feeling’s complicated. It’s like anyone I know Don’t be so consecrated It’s like we never were in love V2 Even starshine tends to fade away It’s the journey we must all undertake Onward striving in a blasphemed haze Speaking with divinity before the blaze CODA It’s just a feeling I’m endearing of superlatives It’s the extreme of dreams and worrisome old narratives V3 So, the limelight ends for all you know Was it truly what you thought? How did it go? Everyone was beating at your fake external glow Curtain call has ended, and you failed to ever steal the show
7.
V1 Mountain ranges separating knowledge that is ours to find Secrets that are hidden from us reprogramming all our minds Hysteria is your religion. Some succumb and most do fall So, you made the big decision. In the dark is where we are CHORUS Coming to grips on the edge of insanity Changing the rules with respect to reality We are not alone….. V2 Lords and kings do not define us, though you’ve given it a try Planting all your mindless banter; wanting it, we pay the price Deception beckons for compliance. Cynics help to push it through Will is a direct defiance for those who only seek the truth
8.
Telephone 03:26
V1 The funny thing – The disconnect The need to be public with no regrets We all see your ups and downs The comments flow from the champs and clowns CHORUS You survive alone Waiting by your telephone V2 The miracle of info flow You cannot regulate the people you know The people treat your feelings like gold Never on the street would you be this bold
9.
Paradise 03:20
V1 I don’t want your love I don’t want your raging I don’t need your pain CHORUS The thought of paradise is further from my view The world of paradise cannot be tied to you Coda Believe no one
10.
V1 Fighting nations, but the masses will not pay attention to detail Promises broken, and the wars they never end. The system fails. CHORUS Circles made in times of war and peace They are we are deceived So, we cannot make a better place These are the end of times V2 Understanding compassion is not there. It’s better to hate them Simple minded are the ones that cannot see a peaceful descent V3 Such destruction. So much life has come and gone And still we hate them Vamp And so, we hate them And so, we fight them And so, we kill them And never know them

about

The Synth Lord Seffner, Florida

The newest project from the mind of music producer/musician/composer/super-model Juan "Punchy" Gonzalez (Diet of Worms, Lover of Sin, Cosmic Punch) takes you on a journey of sound that reminds you of the past and why music was just better back in the age when synths ruled the airwaves.

Imagine a person from 1982 is frozen in ice and wakes up today without knowing the sound fonts have changed.
