Today Will Be Different
This song is about a man who wants to shoot up an office building. He goes through psychotic mental events in his mind and has enormous religious revelations, but then never acts on anything and at the end he claims “I hold onto little strengths of life, chasing all the faculties inside”. We’ve all had that kind of day.

lyrics

Sway my soul
Cause my heart is impartial
To your cold and lonesome approach
One day I’ll die
In a fire in the sky
And I’ll live forever
Through songs of tireless might
That scream through the ages
Enduring the changes of time
The world’s still unfolding
Call your boy
I hope he’s holding
I’d like to sink into euphoric lies
And self-demise
with no speech till magnesium arrives

Fuck the patterns of abuse
This rope aint thick enough to entertain a noose
You’d rather smoke rocks
And skip stones off skidrow
With liars, jokes, and droves of beggars
Hopeless anger
Tunneling through swollen vessels
Kiss the ground,
The voyages brought hypnotic misery
Three cheers for thee!
Oh wholesome creature
The cold will eat ya
Your time will come
Remember her warm skin?
You pierced it with your agonizing pleas of revival
Read your mortgage, read your bible
It’s gone

Trust in the voices of heavenly grace
And lift up your bones from this land laid to waste
Ghosts in your hallways
Ghosts in your mirror
Ghosts in your eyelids
They speak much clearer
Praise! Praise! Praise!
We’re changing
We’re changing
No pain, no pain, no pain

Burn all the mountains
Burn all the seas
And all of you cunts
You’ll burn with me
Burn all the cities
Burn all the skies
Burn all the priests
Who’ve been spreading their lies!
Jump in our ashes
Now jump in our ashes
Come swim inside this darkened carbon mine
The world needs changing
And angelic babies
Cross into the afterlife and
Leave them all behind
You, you’re all the same
Calculating, calculating, little grains of fame
It's sad I can't help, but laugh
The past becomes black and all we ever see is wrath
A child buried in the sand
I tried to get help, but I could barely stand
Empathy was all i had
Empathy for no reason
And in my head there's nothing wrong..

I hold onto little strengths of life
Chasing all the faculties inside
