The Loss Of Spring (5min50)

(Verse)
You chip away at the person I am
You chip away at me
You drive all my hope away
Displace it from me

You make it seem almost impossible
To carry on each day
But Still I wake up every morning
To give up one more day

(Chorus)
There’s a chill, out in the air
It’s in my heart, it’s everywhere
It’s in my soul, in every hole
It’s in the darkness, taking control
It crushes me, and talks to me
And teaches me, How not to see
It gives me all, that I need
It won’t allow me to succeed

(Verse)
Although it seems it’s like forever
It’s going by so fast
And one day before I know it
This will come to pass
It’s like you took all of the sunlight
And covered it with grey
It’s like you infused rain and sadness
Into every day

(Solo / bridge)
my heart, bleeds out
my words, fade out
my world, shut out
my love, runs out

(Verse)
I close my eyes but the vision is standing
Inside my heart and mind
I never dreamed that another person
Could be so unkind

And now I face an endless winter
No sun no light
The loss of spring all days forever
Overcast by night

(Chorus)
There was a time
I would have tried
To make it work
Now that’s a lie

There’s nothing left, nothing to say
I’ve got to let this, pass away
We were never, meant to be

You cannot be, right for me
The way you tore my soul apart
You’re not right for me

(Verse)
And now I hear you’re looking for closure
So you can brighten your day
Where does that leave me empty-handed
Cause I’ve got nothing to say
You’ve got to live with your decisions
That brought you here today
You got to live with the loss of spring
Because you made it this way

(Outro)
 my heart, bleeds out
my words, fade out
my world, shut out
my love, runs out

All For One (3min21)
By: Shawn Petrie (5-10-2004)
Performed by: August Will Decay
Loaded Knife Records

(Verse 1)
Gather up your plans and dreams
Hold them in this little bottle
Lye upon this table of steel
And wish your heart away

Watch your step on this oily floor
Teach your class to smile and cry
Always hoping for so much more
Giving up all you can

(Chorus 1)
Greed spills poison,
Drawing flies and disease
A large part of what’s been divided
Is collected by a powerful being

Verse 2
Die inside as you give your all
Your only purpose now will be to please
You would be an important addition
If you weren’t so dedicated

A broken silence in the morning air
Reminding you start the day
Continuation of the ancient ways
A tunnel with no light inside

(Chorus 2)
Your heart is beating slower, and the
Will to try fades away
You speak out for a change, but no one
Hears a single word you say

(Verse 3)
Solo guitar and keyboard

(Chorus 3)
Greed spills poison,
Drawing flies and disease
A large part of what’s been divided
Is collected by a powerful being

I have only one question for you
Why is it all for one and one for none?
If I could ask you just one question
Why is it all for one and one for none?

It’s all for one, it’s all for one
It’s all for one, one for none
One for none, one for none
Why does it have to be one for none?

Unsecured Sacred Shelter (4min11)
By: Shawn D. Petrie 4-10-2000
Performed by: August Will Decay

(Intro)
Broken bones, busted souls
Crushed beyond repair
Bloody hands, bleeding hearts
Close the coffin lock it off

(Chorus Intro)
Scratch my eyes out, make me blind
I fear all that I see
Without warning, terror strikes
Evil within this lonely night
Fist of rage, releases anger
What was once to be
Forget the future, block it out
You cannot penetrate me

(Verse 1)
Fire burning on the water
Show the willing what is anger
Steel, cold and conformed to his law
Unrealized dreams, a child screams

(Chorus 1)
Unsecured sacred shelter
Rebuild, then smash again
Unsecured sacred shelter
Life in a cold cup of silence
Pray to a page, the book is bread
No one on, the other end
Unsecured Sacred Shelter
Blinking lights, dead on the inside

(Verse 2)
Creatures crawling on my wall
The blankets do not help
Another loan another forced chore
Organized disillusion and agony

(Chorus 2)
Unsecured sacred shelter
Hell at home, driven hard
Unsecured sacred shelter
The missing link returned, unwanted
Abuse and words worked and formed
The belt tears and burns, but leaves no scars
Unsecured Sacred Shelter
Toss the dialogue into the fire

Time passes out the window
Greet another, defeating day
Close my eyes, this has got to be a dream
I’ve got to make it go away

(Outro)

Zombie Brain (4min46)
By: Shawn Petrie (6-4-2015)
Performed by: August Will Decay
Loaded Knife Records (2005)

(Intro)

(Verse)
When will you see past your own smile
Cause the smile you wear is a fake
When will you stop to ask yourself?
How much more can I take
You were like a poison running through my veins
And there was no antidote
I hear a noise in the other room, what’s that sound?
It is only your ghost

(Chorus)
I just can’t stand living with this pain
I’d like to put a bullet in your zombie brain
I just can’t stand living with this regret
It’s time to put this to bed, it’s time to forget

(Bridge) – (Verse)
You’re like the coldest chill in the winter’s air
And when I needed you, you weren’t there
You left me silently once upon a time
And took what was your and all that was mine

(Chorus)
I just can’t stand living with this pain
I’d like to put a bullet in your zombie brain
You walk the earth breaking hearts without refrain
They say to kill the bitch you got to kill the brain

(Solo) – (Breakdown)
When you made me smile, it was a lie
When you promised me, it was a lie
When you wore your ring, it was a lie
So it’s time for me to say goodbye
When you held me tight, it was a lie
When you held my hand, it was a lie
When you took your vow, it was a lie
So it’s time for me to say goodbye

(Outro)
You’ll be forgotten, I’ll be gone
You’ll be forever walking dead
This sadness that’s inside your head
Will torment you until the end
And I cannot stand to see
Your face your face in my dreams
So I choose to not
And never again will you be part of me
You’ll never be, you’ll never get back in
You’re dead to me, you’re dead to me
