honest
so profound that I can’t stand it
sure I’ve taken things for granted
I don’t ask ‘cause I demand it
earning everything I wanted
and that’s gotta count for something
at least that I can say I’m
honest
stranded
got a plane but I can’t land it
turbulence has got me branded
all my life my mind’s expanded
so colorful ‘cause I’ve been painted
when I saw myself I nearly fainted
cause I've chosen to be
honest
being true to myself
striving hard for my goal
reaching just for a dream
swallowing all my pride
everything’s kept inside
with my mission at hand
I remain . . .
honest
so in fact that I can’t stand it
maybe I should just condemn it
haven’t seen the positive yet
to know someone that I haven’t met
sometimes I think I should forget it
but at least that I've been
honest
better days
or will I see myself walking away from me
giving up on everything
I could have grown
I should have known better than to try and walk alone
but that’s how I feel comfortable
when I’m down will someone pick me up
off the ground or will I have to do it
by myself doing what I do well
sitting all alone on my own like I do now
I’ve seen things through a brighter shade of grey
doing better every day but I still can’t find my blue
skies and sun well I know I’m not the only one
but I really don’t give a shit it’s enough that I can admit
that I’m doing fine
Berkely duo Axe serve up four catchy, heavy synth-punk rippers inspired by campy horror flicks and old-school heavy metal. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 28, 2021
Oakland band Silent Era's sound is a killer mix of classic hardcore and NWOBHM. On their second LP, they're especially urgent and anthemic. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 1, 2020
