Shut the door and shut my eyes Pray that I am all alone today Don a smile, try to improvise Keep the dog at bey But I've got butterflies flying through my head [Like they've always been] There are bitter lies lying in my bed [I taste the salty skin] I've got better things, better things in store [Time won't wait for me] So let her sing, let her sing once more [I would not wish you on my own worst enemy] Time will tell what's to become of me Time to escape this shell I cannot stand to hear another word Blind faith is so eerily absolute Head down walking with the herd By now the point is moot But I've got butterflies flying through my head [Like they've always been] There are bitter lies lying in my bed [I taste the salty skin] I've got better things, better things in store [Time won't wait for me] So let her sing, let her sing once more [What's to become of me] On this face that I've concealed The truth is etched indelibly upon me All this wasted time revealed Signs of years beyond my age befall me

Fallen Down 04:55
How could you just let me go, let me go It seemed so easy for you although Secrets undiscovered don't, won't remain But you won't let me know These are the reasons why you're guilty of the same crimes as before It's hard to believe we've fallen down this road again, we've fallen down And if you perceive these lies as truth you'll know you can't walk out that door For no other reason than it's hard to see things when we've fallen down How could passion melt away? Couldn't say... Yet all would be forgiven today If you'd only show me once, once again But you never let it show These are the reasons why you're guilty of the same crimes as before It's hard to believe we've fallen down this road again, we've fallen down And if you perceive these lies as truth you'll know you can't walk out that door For no other reason than it's hard to see things when we've fallen down When we fall down we see ourselves We look pitiful, we look so pitiful When we fall down we learn as well How to stand up again Pick yourself up again

All I need to know is how to cure this Emotion sickness ailing me It's taken control of me This is getting old, a constant fluctuation Self-damnation imprisons me Shrouds me in obscurity Been trying to figure out What's the cause of my self-doubt A loose connection in my brain Makes me mildly insane A drastic side The part of me that I can't hide I wonder what it's gonna take for me To be emotionally free I always think too much, committing mental treason When there's no reason, there's no rhyme I do it all the time Leaning on a crutch, though it's ironic I think the chronic is to blame What a crying shame Been trying to figure out What's the cause of my self-doubt A loose connection in my brain Makes me mildly insane A drastic side The part of me that I can't hide I wonder what it's gonna take for me To be emotionally free When emotions get the best of me That's when I'm urning to be free And when I'm feeling all alone I must remember that I'm not the only one But it hurts me so to let them show It's so hard to let them go But I must free what's ailing me internally To be free Hopelessly paranoid until I brave the weather Pull myself together, show some spine And rightfully claim what's mine Been trying to figure out What's the cause of my self-doubt A loose connection in my brain Makes me mildly insane A drastic side The part of me that I can't hide I wonder what it's gonna take for me To be emotionally free

The Game 05:22
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

So it seems you've gone and given up on your dreams Lost your self-esteem Head in hand, life is nothing like you had planned Take it like a man It's not the end of the world Bound by fear and convalescence now disappears Wait another year Lost your mind, still you try but you've fallen behind Everything's gonna be fine It's not the end of the world Feeling low? Just let it go Some things you can't control Gone insane? Well don't complain Some things you can't explain Lost you love? Well join the club There's more important things to think of When push comes to shove It's not the end of the world
6.
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

The last act of a desperate man Desperate matters call for desperate plans Can't remember, can't understand How his life could slip right through his hands He's so tired of lying He's so tired of trying In his final act he makes his final stand The last act of a desperate man Drank a bottle and crawled inside Second chances always passed him by He wanted to be more in life Empty pages full this open book with why He's so tired of lying He's so tired of trying In his final act he makes his final stand Though he tried he couldn't take his own life He decided to change his mind and surrender The last act of a desperate man

about

The Gravity Guild Los Angeles, California

"The Gravity Guild has it all. The sound, the songs, the chops. Clearly lethal, but completely addictive."

-Susan Masino
Let There Be Rock - The Story of AC/DC


"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!"

-Mojo's Army
