Collide 05:22
It’s happening once more There’s something so familiar about this world of mine And I know I’ve been here before I’ve seen these sights I’ve heard these sounds a million times And I think I know why We’re all trapped inside a loop of time for all our lives And the world repeats itself precisely…endlessly Every second, every moment, every kiss good bye They remain, they stay the same until the end of days Until time and space collide Suppose that time’s a circle perpetually bending back upon itself We don’t know we’re constantly reborn into the same form With no choices but the hand we’ve been dealt Destined to repeat ourselves Because we’re all trapped inside a loop of time for all our lives And the world repeats itself precisely…endlessly Every second, every moment, every kiss good bye They remain, they stay the same until the end of days But I’m fine just to know that I’m alive There is nothing temporary in this life I knew there’s some truth to deja vu I feel for you: the pitiful... the miserable... the vulnerable The weak of mind But I’m fine just to know that I’m alive

SLO 05:14
I’m out on a ledge looking down Priorities changing instantly Open, exposed…Breaking down Until everything becomes clear to me If I could just slow down I know I’d feel this way most every day and say I’ve made up my mind I’m alive and nothing can ever take that away Nothing’s ever set in stone Clutch your stone and don’t let go I dive into white wash Breaking through the curl of blue I tame the chaos Waters cool and make anew If I could just slow down I know I’d feel this way most every day and say I’ve made up my mind I’m alive and nothing can ever take that away Nothing’s ever set in stone Clutch your stone and don’t let go Oh, brother mine Help me to redefine myself To use this stepping stone to never be alone This is my stepping stone… My stepping stone Now I know…Take it slow Clutch that stone and don’t let go Friend or foe, the ebb and flow have to show room to grow So clutch that stone Don’t let go of the stepping stone Now I know…Take it slow Clutch that stone…Don’t let go Nothing’s ever set in stone Clutch your stone and don’t let go Oh, brother mine Help me to redefine myself To use this stepping stone to never be alone This is my stepping stone… My stepping stone

It was far too late to change her mind Since the day we met I laid it all on the line Only to find she wouldn’t leave I couldn’t believe it when she told me that she loved me So I took her to bed but I should have said to her No fucking way! I’m damned if I don’t and damned if I do I thought I heard those three little words Tell me how do I get rid of you I’m damned if I don’t and damned if I do No self-control… I need to know Tell me how do I get rid of you This familiar stranger, six years gone Couldn’t seem more right… couldn’t be more wrong In retrospect I don’t regret the situation’s ending And though I took her to bed I know I should have said to her No fucking way! I’m damned if I don’t and damned if I do I thought I heard those three little words Tell me how do I get rid of you I’m damned if I don’t and damned if I do No self-control… I need to know Tell me how do I get rid of you

The Game 05:07
I know you disapprove of my decision I’ve been dying to prove my position Once I had the guts to say when you were wrong Now that spark inside me is gone I sacrificed my life for this And I will not run away Because there’s no escape I know from those who don’t listen Those who never listen There is no medicine for those who don’t listen Those who never listen I have played this game…Old and sour I know who’s to blame…You’re such a coward Once upon a time I got some sage advise Never argue with a fool I sacrificed my life for this And I will not run away Because there’s no escape I know from those who don’t listen Those who never listen There is no medicine for those who don’t listen Those who never listen They use you…Get used to it

What would you do if everything you thought to be true was just a lie And the reasons why were as vague as the sky? What would you do if everybody you thought that you knew turned out a fraud? Just turn a cold shoulder to your god I’ll be okay, no thanks to you and the dirty things that you do How could it be I’ve been deceived by the only one I want to believe? I sit and grieve for the ones who bereave How could it be I failed to see that I hold the key to right the wrong Since I’ve known it’s been there all along? I’ll be okay, no thanks to you and the dirty things that you do I refuse to beat up on you I have done those dirty things too When confronting issues of trust Leave all deceivers in the dust Believe in yourself and you’ll find that the strength is in you

Step Outside 04:23
A conversation with myself Remarkable reflections show themselves to me As I find myself consumed by thoughts that hold me Witness to a one-sided tug-of-war And I promised to…I need to stop But I’m mesmerized…I can’t step outside I’m caught in the mirror Hypnotized by colored images Spinning, turning, rolling in my head I can’t see through this drifting cloud of smoke Unable to discern fact from fiction I must find a way So I close my eyes and step outside to see what’s real Close your eyes to step outside As I step outside I hear the voice that told me Just what it was I first came out here for And I promised to…I need to start So I close my eyes and step outside the mirror

Little Pill 03:36
With this little pill I see the world before me as if from a sill Lifted off the ground I’m rolling With this little pill My eyes feel both wide open Never standing still Interactive and outspoken One little pill that takes you up and higher Until you scrape the sky I’m flying I’m floating away With this little pill I become my greatest version Transforming will Rebirth…A different person With this little pill This power surges through me With this little pill I sense new urges looming One little pill that takes me up and higher Until I scrape the sky I’m flying I’m floating away

Why not learn to accept this life that you are living? Only a fool would pass up the chances they’ve been given Realize that love surrounds you And with no consequences to defend Embrace the light that lets you start again Dust off your wings before they grow moldy rotten You know the feeling…Or have you forgotten Just let the weightlessness surround you Then the body will lift…The mind ascends Embrace the light that lets you start again I’m fearful…I’m afraid…I’m terrified That you won’t see the light my friend Do I need to prove this, Lord knows I’ve tried Time and time and time again

Subordinate 04:24
You…You better watch your mouth this time Cuz words are deceiving and you just crossed the line So how does your foot taste? It takes time to learn you’re not invincible and humans are fallible Warning: Your self-destruction’s forming Stay on that track You can’t look back Stop dwelling in the past Your guilty conscience holds you down Restrains you and keeps you and knocks you to the ground So pay no attention You can tell that goddamn cricket “Take your help then go and fuck yourself…” Warning: Your self-destruction’s forming Stay on that track You can’t look back Stop dwelling in the past Once you face the truth Things are bound to get better for you If you look ahead and live with no regrets Should you fall…Do not fret…No regrets…Face the truth Live and learn that you’re human too I don’t know why you’d throw your life away Cut yourself off and watch yourself decay So pay close attention It’s not hard to learn what you can’t seem to get…To live without regret If fear consumes you Things are bound to get better for you If you look ahead and live with no regrets

So Long 05:14
Please…I need you more than ever before…Come to me Because you are the one You make it right when shit’s all messed up You are the one Please…Don’t ever let me fall that far…No not again Because you were the one who made "so long" so long Give me up and expect more of the same Give me up but don’t be ashamed Living is the only way to prove why you bleed So ashamed Integrity is not the only virtue I need So help me…Please No…This is not the way I wanted things to end Because you are the one You make it right when shit’s all messed up You are the one Please…Just understand that none of this was done in vain Because you were the one who made "so long" so long Give me up and expect more of the same I can’t explain It seems lately I don’t have the will to fight no more Waiting, contemplating about being alone Individuality is all that matters to me I’ve gone insane It seems lately I don’t have the will to fight no more Hating, always grating me right down to the bone Individuality is all that matters when we're hating, Contemplating about being alone in this world All I need is to believe the answers will come Because I am the one I am the only one I know of I am the one Please…I need a little more…I just need to taste it Because this feels so wrong it’s been so long, so long Give me up and expect more of the same

Delusional 06:24
In the waking hours I see I’ve become the epitome The quintessential man of dreams The archetype, or so it seems But in the morning light I find In this state of mind These are notions falsified By shadows buried deep inside You’re too good for the likes of me You make me better than I ought to be I bit off more than I could chew And I might choke to death Devoured every piece of you And I can’t catch my breath And it’s all because of you It’s all because I bit off way more than I could chew And I can’t catch my breath Memories they speak to me And offer dreams that cannot be I think about this constantly What if things went differently? Would I have become a king? You were all encompassing But like the snowy death of spring My confidence keeps withering You’re too good for the likes of me You make me better than I ought to be Suffocating…cold and blue I have to stop comparing everything to you I’ll never find something new Comparing everything to you I’m delusional Suffocate these daydreams Overwhelmed by these delusions

"The Gravity Guild is an LA power group with a dirty, slow burn sound that would appeal to fans of southern hard rock or classic grungemasters Soundgarden and Alice in Chains. Check em out!"
