the dark is rising on the skyline
shadow hunger light devoured
through the cracks along the timelines
leaking backwards from the towers
another shade comes calling
feel it when you stand still
breathing need embodied sucking blindly
on faint and fading will
it breeds you to follow always
all of the way you go always
sense set to sea there's no warning
oh
all this and you're still alone
all this life in a different world
you're so damn set now to watch this one burn
the wild eyed jacks sit on fictitious thrones
all this ends in hollow shells of home
two steps sideways four steps back
all we are now is attack attack attack
all this strife of our own device
baring teeth at the slightest of slights
distorted visions of glorious untruths
insanity rules in the hearts of fools
two steps sideways four steps back
all we are now is attack attack attack
fuck all reason, fuck all control
irrationally the newest goal

won't stop
breathing in the havoc
neverending lies clawing whirlwinds of panic
stay low
always on the move
never stop to think it'll be the death of you
hurt yourself
host their filth
suck down their lies
corrode away your soul
strobe flash
life beyond the lies
arcing through the haze forever shutting out the sky
the glass is half full, more than enough to drown in
the glass is half full, more than enough to drown in
last call
fire crashing down
we can sink or we can swim but we've lost the higher ground
STOP
NO ONE OWNS US
STOP
NO ONE OWNS US
the glass is half full, more than enough to drown in
the glass is half full, more than enough to drown in
we pride ourselves on self immolation
feed our flesh to the conflagration
the glass is half full, more than enough to drown in
the glass is half full, more than enough to drown in
VOLUNTARY SELF DESTRUCTION
INGESTION NECROTIC NARCOTIC
the glass is half full, ingestion necrotic narcotic
oh just make it stop

steel lines snake, out beyond the break
fiber optic hate, endless no escape
this time is frozen in endless mistake
feedback eroding down to steady state
it's coming for you
it's coming for you
it's coming for you
it's coming for you
strobe cut frames, existential shades
eradicated fate, the moment is the shape
this path is scripted in bloodlust and hate
initial conditions corrupted debased
it's coming for you
it's coming for you
it's coming for you
it's coming for you
the center will not hold
the center will not fucking hold
JUST HIDE JUST HIDE JUST HIDE JUST HIDE
least resistance to continued existence
is this who we are now
or what we always were
signal loss gains, echoed meaning fades
the noise the noise the noise the noise
scraping at the stains, steel bright flashing blades
the noise the noise the noise the noise
it's coming for you
it's coming for you
it's coming for you
it's coming for you
the center will not hold
the center will not fucking hold
JUST HIDE JUST HIDE JUST HIDE JUST HIDE
least resistance to continued existence
is this who we are now
or what we always were
entropy kings and queens
junkies for the extremes
screaming at the abyss
expecting paradigm shift
from a fracturing rift
JUST HIDE JUST HIDE JUST HIDE JUST HIDE

daylight fades itself away
it's already gone now
for now ills terminate
we hold a while longer,
doesn't have to mean we have to wander,
where are all the stars you have to wonder
images of dying dreams
haunting me, in daylight seams
falling skies, you know you have to wander
when,
where are all the stars you have to wonder
imaginings of you and all we said
are always wrapped around my head
one less fire left to burn
ashes await the fallout
and here we are, all alone
dreaming of nothing but being alone
would've been better off unknown
but we're already here now
so what do we do now
take a deep breath and
look up to the sky, but
where are all the stars I have to wonder
where are all our hopes we had to hide alone, all alone

i haven't given up the fight
i haven't given up the fight
but it's all over now
you know it's all over yes you do
keep on living
keep on living the lie
keep on living the lie
so here we go again
yeah, here we go again
and nothing changes
we both know there's nothing new tonight
why do we bother
why do we bother now
there's only one good reason
there's only ever one good reason
just because
just because
because it's you
because it's you

apolitiq Los Angeles, California
A-POLITIQ; is the collateral damage of violence and instability, the tectonics of the technological and emotional landscape
that humans must adapt to on a shared planet stranded between unfathomable origins and much debated destinations
precipitating from the maelstrom in 1987, apolitiq remains a chaotic phenomenon of seething rage, audio antagonism, and proclamation that exists only to be heard
