Driveway Conversations

Disowned and abandoned
What you did is not what you said
Demanding agreement from one you call kid
It was all talk. None of it meant a word.
I thought I'd
be out on my own but you kept me around.
Five years of drug abuse went unnoticed under your nose and into mine.
Oblivious and ignorant
How did you not realize what was happening to me
I kept a clean act and a clean smile
Under wraps the act was kept
A code of ethics that differed between generations could have caused the uproar of a lifetime
but instead led to a driveway conversation ending in compliance and understanding
Where did I go wrong?
Going against every piece of advice you utilized for as far back as time allowed meant nothing in your backwards eyes.
You're not the same as you were years ago.
I don't know whether to be pleasantly surprised or oddly concerned.
Where did you go wrong?
Disowned and abandoned
What you did is not what you said
Demanding agreement from one you call kid
Where did you go wrong?
(Where?)
Where did I go wrong?

I fell in line
Content to walk the beaten path far from home
I never thought Id go this route just like
You never thought youd be alone
But this time ill hold my breath
If you could just wait for once
Taking time off from the
distance you held on to
Tropical storms couldnt drive you away from the north
A much needed distraction
Uprooted from the safety
you were provided yet saved
losing faith meant holding up your head
and facing the wrath that kept us down
Don't hold me back
Follow the path
Don't hold me back
I know its hard to leave everything you know behind
but youve done this before
you dont have to worry about proving anything to anyone
its not your job to make him happy
he cant control you across state lines
if you harbor bitter resentment
You won't know when to stop
solar flares and prominences rain down on your head
I don't know how to stop

Here we are again
I wish I could say it's unfamiliar
Oh god
This time you mean it
All of your secrets
My throat tight like a noose
And burning eyes
If this is it
Let's just get this over quick
But don't say I didn't warn you
I won't let you go
I won't take this lying down
Here's hoping for the best
I'll race you to the bottom of the bottle
Drown your anger, your fear, your sorrow
You fucked up
You hate your tomorrow
Don't let this define you
Hide from your lies
Stop asking why
This was never a way to live my life
Everything we built went away in one night
This was never a way to live my life
Reaching out for an answer
Is this the better off that you meant?
It's funny how you went and told all our friends
If you only knew how lucky you were
I hate to say it but I told you so
I know you hope you're dreaming
Don't stop me 'til it's over
Why would you do this to yourself?
This has to come to an end
Free yourself

What if we all wake up
And this is all just a dream?
Would you want to continue?
Or would you go back to sleep?
I've seen the other side
And I know just what you need
And in the end we all fall down
And in the end we all fall down
Asleep at the wheel again
I'll crash before I wake up
And run this car right off that bridge
But the water feels so cold
What if I drown before I'm pulled up
If they even look at all?
How long have I been missing?
Am I already dead?
There's monsters staring at me
And this ghost just called me friend
He reaches out a pale light
And grabs me by the hand
And takes me to a new place
I'll never see this one again
I feel I'm floating in the stars
What if we all wake up
And this is all just a dream?
Would you want to continue?
Or would you go back to sleep?
I've seen the other side
And I know just what you need
We all fall down in the end
We all fall down in the end
What if we all wake up
And this is all just a dream?
Would you want to continue?
Or would you go back to sleep?
I've seen the other side

Satyr Atlanta, Georgia
Satyr is a progressive metal band from Atlanta GA. Mixing equal parts post hardcore, math rock, metalcore, and prog, their music is complemented by weighted lyrics containing forward and genuine subject matter as seen through more lighthearted eyes, which creates a sound and message that can be enjoyed by any and all on the rock and metal spectrum. ... more
Satyr recommends:
This is the most important album in the world to the members of Satyr. Wake stands at the top of every list imaginable, is a landmark album for Post-Hardcore, and is a huge influence on Satyr.

Orange Mathematics
by Frontierer
supported by 24 fans who also own “Neutrino!”
Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly. Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant.

Gutsy hard rock from this Sydney group, with proggy arrangements that reference Middle Eastern melodies.
