Trust is Broken

Everything that you said was so perfect
Everything that you knew we would want
And now that the rug has been pulled from below us
Did this all go according to plan?
You told them your lies with your clever disguise
You ignored all the cries; the innocence stolen
You turned and you ran; was this always your plan?
You've lost open hands when trust was broken
You answered the calls for a reason for this
You told us that there was nothing to fear
But now everything is falling around us
The world that we built is crumbling down
You told them your lies with your clever disguise
You ignored all the cries; the innocence stolen
You turned and you ran; was this always your plan?
You've lost open hands when trust was broken
You told them your lies with your clever disguise
You ignored all the cries; the innocence stolen
You turned and you ran; was this always your plan?
You've lost open hands when trust was broken
You told them your lies with your clever disguise
You'll pay for your crimes; the jury has spoken
You turned and you ran; was this always your plan?
You've lost all command; the trust is broken

Sanctuary

That cross you wear around your neck
Is that noose that hangs you to your death
And I know it's hard for you to hear
That you were wrong
Hey; it's always the same
It's all in the way
you lie then think that you are saved
It's never to late
To make a change and be the one
you said you would be
But don't kid yourself
it's never enough to lie
then cheat your way through life
Then make Him cry; as He cast you aside
as He watches you die; as He watches you burn
There are no golden gates for you
There is no glory or fortune
There is no solace to your fears
There is no sanctuary
I've said it many times before
And the fact it still remains
The confession of your sins
Means nothing if you never change
There are no golden gates for you.
There is no glory or fortune
There is no solace to your fears
There is no sanctuary here.

The Thin Line
06:35

Together we stand; divided we fall
And lately, it seems we're blind to it all
We see it on the news every day
One kills one, and the world's gone up in flames
What did we do to cause this pain?
Who will save the day?
There's a thin line between love and hate
And we cross it every day
We kill each other in the streets
then swear that we can change
You could start a march or pray to God
Not to make the same mistake
'Cause there's a thin line between love and hate
Please don't cross that line today.
Who's to blame for all that we have seen?
'cause fingers point and still we can't come clean.
Broken homes and broken bones
And in the ground another gravestone
There's a thin line between love and hate
And we cross it every day
We kill each other in the streets
then swear that we can change
You could start a march or pray to God
Not to make the same mistake
'Cause there's a thin line between love and hate
Please don't cross that line today.
We can change
We can change
oh no please God just make us change
There's a thin line between love and hate
And we cross it every day
We kill each other in the streets
then swear that we can change
You could start a march or pray to God
Not to make the same mistake
'Cause there's a thin line between love and hate
Please don't cross that line today.

Defiance

In the name of God, conspire
To waste your foes in war
content to set this world on fire
and shake our world to its core
You claim to be a freedom fighter
But what are you dying for?
No. We won't take it
We won't let you win this war
No. You won't break us.
We won't take this anymore.
Killing innocent civilians
Collateral damage, be damned
Referred by those who oppose as villains
The label fits you well
No. We won't take it
We won't let you win this war
No. You won't break us.
We won't take this anymore.
There will come a time
When you will be forced to pay for your crimes
It's the end of the line
The vengeance will come its way in time
There is no escape.
No. We won't take it
We won't let you win this war
No. You won't break us.
We won't take this anymore.
No. We won't take it
We won't let you win this war
No. You won't break us.
We won't take this anymore.

All Must End

A window shatters; we're under siege
I can't believe; I cannot see
How far we've fallen; how far we've gone
It's all so blurry
I see you shaking; I see you crawl
I see the shattered remains of it all
I hear you whisper "It's not your fault"
But I know the whole story.
All we ever wanted, it is going down
And all that we dreamed for is gone
And all that we believed is over now
And all that we loved is a lie.
A cold wind blows right through my bones
Like the words you said, I already know
And the fire so warm, is so long gone
But don't you worry
All we ever wanted, it is going down
And all that we dreamed for is gone
And all that we believed is over now
And all that we loved is a lie.
It all must end; all must end
All must end right now
It all must end; all must end
All things must come to an end right now
All we ever wanted, it is going down
And all that we dreamed for is gone
And all that we believed is over now
And all that we loved is a lie.
It all must end; all must end
All must end right now
It all must end; all must end
All things must end to begin again.

Jacob Carter Olympia, Washington
Inspired by the melodicism of 70s and 80s classic rock, the grunge aesthetics and sensibilities of the 90s, and the modern sheen of rock and metal today, I try to write music that keeps the listener engaged, inspired, and interested. My music will never cost money, but you are welcome to donate to the cause if you feel like it. Thanks for checking out my music, and keep fighting the good fight. ... more
