Eye of the Hurricane

You’ve got this whole town scared
I’ve seen them run for cover
They’re afraid of your wind and
Your rolling thunder
If you think I’m likely to fall into line
Then you’re in for the ride of your life tonight
I’ll rise along with winds around me
I’ll fight, and you’ll never see me coming
When the rain subsides, you’ll be in my sights
It’s the end of your reign, in the eye of the hurricane
You see, I’m not like them
I’m on another level
Been to Hell and back again
Got a scar from every battle
You won’t see me board up the windows
Or lock the doors
I won’t be caught being afraid anymore
I’ll rise along with winds around me
I’ll fight, and you’ll never see me coming
When the rain subsides, you’ll be in my sights
It’s the end of your reign, in the eye of the hurricane
I won’t be fooled
I’ve seen the real you
You’re just a tool
There’s no lightning in you
I’ll rise along with winds around me
I’ll fight, and you’ll never see me coming
When the rain subsides, you’ll be in my sights
It’s the end of your reign, in the eye of the hurricane
In the eye of the hurricane
In the eye of the hurricane

Gangrene
03:24
|

|
I'm angry
But I don't want to be
It's like gangrene
Running over me
I can't be happy
Till I know the truth
Are you the disease
Or the cure to soothe?
As the flesh rots from my bones (from my bones)
You're left with no remorse
I am falling apart
Left alone in the dark
You're gleaning in greed
I'm covered with gangrene
I‘m consumed
And I'm seeing red
Like the flags you
Hold inside your hands
I know it's not like me
To want to see you bleed
But I have lost control
And I need some relief
As the flesh rots from my bones (from my bones)
You're left with no remorse
I am falling apart
Left alone in the dark
You're gleaning in greed
I'm covered with gangrene
You're the virus
Get me clean
Amputate away
The gangrene
You're the virus
Get me clean
Amputate away
The gangrene
Gangrene
Gangrene
Gangrene
As the flesh rots from my bones (from my bones)
You're left with no remorse
I am falling apart
Left alone in the dark
You're gleaning in greed
I'm covered with gangrene

(Stranger)
It’s unsettling
That everything I see
Feels like I’m stepping out the door
Into the strangest dream
I can’t comprehend
Am I the alien?
Can someone help me understand?
I’m a stranger to this world that I’m living in
Full of compromise and hope is lost into the wind
We’re all choosing sides
Will the strong survive?
I’m a stranger to this world that I’m living in
This can’t be real, but
It’s so familiar
And I don’t recognize this life
Gotta keep on going
Even though it’s showing
That I don’t know where I’ll arrive
Is this just a scheme
Or am I obsolete?
I can’t be the only one to question everything
I’m a stranger to this world that I’m living in
Full of compromise and hope is lost into the wind
We’re all choosing sides
Will the strong survive?
I’m a stranger to this world that I’m living in
(Stranger)
(Stranger)
(Stranger)
I feel incomplete
Is there someone just like me
Or am I a dying breed?
How can I belong
In this world that you call home
If I’m left on my own
I’m a stranger to this world that I’m living in
Full of compromise and hope is lost into the wind
We’re all choosing sides
Will the strong survive?
I’m a stranger to this world that I’m living in
(Stranger)
I’m a stranger to this world that I’m living in

Alive Again
03:18

I’ve been searching my whole life
For something deep inside
That makes me feel alive again
Here it goes again
The sun has rose and then
Begin the cycle all over
The nihilist inside
Won’t admit he isn’t fine
I won’t sacrifice my
Light for discomposure
I’ve
Been searching my whole life
For something deep inside
That makes me feel
Alive again
Take
This emptiness away
I don’t want to be afraid
Of letting my heart
Begin to beat again
This unfeeling
It’s permeating
Tired of being
A cog in the machine
Not gonna doubt what I’ve found
I’ll take this torch around
And burn down the institution
I’ve
Been searching my whole life
For something deep inside
That makes me feel
Alive again (alive again)
Take
This emptiness away
I don’t want to be afraid
Of letting my heart
Begin to beat again
I keep searching
To fill this yearning
Can you make me feel
Alive again
I keep searching
To fill this yearning
Can you make me feel
Alive again
Alive again

Set You Free
03:52

I remember when we were kids
Everything was so different
A lifetime ago
We have both earned our scars
And they made us who we are
But some never close
Now you feel a world away
I guess that’s the choice you’ve made
But I need you to know
I never wanted this
Unblissful ignorance
Of a life without you
I can set you free
If that’s what you need
Just reach your hand back out to me
I’ll be your lifeline
Just like old times
I will help you fight your demons
I can set you free
There is no love lost
Between the two of us
It’s only been buried
If we start digging now
I think that we’ll find out
It’s not so far down
I can set you free
If that’s what you need
Just reach your hand back out to me
I’ll be your lifeline
Just like old times
I will help you fight your demons
I can set you free
I can set you free
If that’s what you need
Just reach your hand back out to me
I’ll be your lifeline
Just like old times
I will help you fight your demons
I can set you free (If that’s what you need)
I can set you free (If that’s what you need)
(I can set you free)

To everyone who's broken
To everyone unseen
To anyone who's felt the sting of being incomplete
You are not alone here
There's power in your grief
Don't listen to the same lies droning out from the machine
There is more than you can see
Across the scope of eternity
Seasons will end
Just hold on
This war within your head
Can be won
In your darkest moments
Know you're not alone
This season will end
Even if your wound is open
Know you won't bleed out
I'll be right here holding
The tourniquet while you're on the ground
You are not forgotten
Even though your mind's at war
I'm right here beside you
Let me help you through the storm
More than you can see
Eternity
Seasons will end
Just hold on
This war within your head
Can be won
In your darkest moments
Know you're not alone
This season will end
This isolation's deadly (Hold on, just hold on)
Life shouldn't be so lonely (Hold on, just hold on)
This isolation's deadly (Hold on, just hold on)
Life shouldn't be so lonely
Seasons will end
Just hold on
This war within your head
Can be won
In your darkest moments
Know you're not alone
This season will end

Next Sunrise

I’ve been living in world of make believe
I could only see what I wanted to see
But it’s becoming so painfully clear
That there's something wrong
Maybe I don’t belong
As I am taking a hard look at my life
I start to realize that I’ve been building a lie
I’ve been trying so desperately to find
If I am right (God, don’t let me be right)
If you feel like me
I wanna see
Hands to the sky
If you’re ready
If you feel like me
I wanna see
Hands to the sky
If you’re ready
It’s time that we open up our eyes
And see our inevitable demise
Can you help me understand
Where do I fit in
To see the next sunrise
To see the next sunrise
To see the next sunrise
It's all so clear now that I'm
Just another lost soul in need of light
If we band together then we just might find
A way to survive
To stay alive
If you feel like me
I wanna see
Hands to the sky
If you’re ready
If you feel like me
I wanna see
Hands to the sky
If you’re ready
It’s time that we open up our eyes
And see our inevitable demise
Can you help me understand
Where do I fit in
To see the next sunrise
It’s time that we open up our eyes
And see our inevitable demise
Can you help me understand
Where do I fit in
To see the next sunrise
(Hands to the sky)
If you feel like me
I wanna see
Hands to the sky
If you’re ready
If you feel like me
I wanna see
Hands to the sky
If you’re ready
It’s time that we open up our eyes
And see our inevitable demise
Can you help me understand
Where do I fit in
To see the next sunrise
To see the next sunrise
If you're ready to fight
To see the next sunrise

You’re surrounding me
Trying to keep me in the dark
But silence is not easy
While you're tearing things apart
You try to remain
In the controversy
While distracting from the nightmare already begun
It’s all starting to make sense
I’m beginning to understand
Why I’m not part of your master plan
I’m starting to notice who you are
A rat scratching at the wall around my heart
The closer you get to me
The more I see you devolve
A creature with gnawing teeth
And destruction in your wake
You try to remain
In the controversy
While distracting from the nightmare already begun
(I see you)
I’m beginning to understand
Why I’m not part of your master plan
I’m starting to notice who you are
A rat scratching at the wall around my heart
Scratch, scratch, scratch
Scratch, scratch, scratch
You want to eliminate me
And make me bleed
But I won’t back down
I won’t concede
Dig into me
And watch me contemplate how I’ll make you grieve
You make me seethe
You make me volatile
Then gaze in horror at the rage you’ve never seen
I’m beginning to understand
Why I’m not part of your master plan
I’m starting to notice who you are
A rat scratching at the wall around my heart
I’m beginning to understand
Why I’m not part of your master plan
I’m starting to notice who you are
A rat scratching at the wall around my heart

(Quarantine)
I'm sick
And I need some help, but
I want to do it myself
I can't reach out and touch
What I want (What I want)
It takes time to assess my mind
I need to
Quarantine
Stay away from me
I'll separate myself
For my own sanity
Quarantine
Please just let me be
I need to clear my head
So I can breathe again
If you never look closer
You'll never survive
Finding closure
Is like finding a knife
When one wound closes
Another swings wide
Just leave me alone
So I can stitch up my mind
Quarantine
Stay away from me
I'll separate myself
For my own sanity
Quarantine
Please just let me be
I need to clear my head
So I can breathe again
My mind is a maze of mud and mines
That I can navigate
At my own pace
It just takes a little time
So don't give up on me
I just need to
Quarantine
Stay away from me
I'll separate myself
For my own sanity
Quarantine
Stay away from me
I'll separate myself
For my own sanity
Quarantine
Please just let me be
I need to clear my head
So I can breathe again

Let You Know
03:12

It’s been so long, I’m not sure you see
What it is you still do to me
I can’t help but fall to pieces when
Our eyes meet
How did we live our lives apart
When you’ve become so much of my heart
This is a message I’ve been struggling with
So here it is
I need to let you know
Something I can’t control
Is how much of my heart you stole
You stole
It’s something to build a life around
This love we have found
Is enough to pick me up and dust me off when I have fallen down
No mater
What life throws
I need to let you know
Something I can’t control
Is how much of my heart you stole
Whatever it takes
No mater what they might say
Even call me insane
But I gotta know
Can you feel it too?
Can you feel it too?
My heart you stole
I need to let you know
Something I can’t control
Is how much of my heart you stole
I need to let you know
Something I can’t control
Is how much of my heart you stole
My heart you stole
Maybe I’ll let you know

Revolution

You lay around like nothing’s wrong
Counting the cost you think you’re owed
I am so tired of this game
You take the credit, and I take the blame
A storm is coming
Time to move
I think it’s time for a revolution
(It’s already in motion)
Time to fight for what’s been broken
A revolution
I’m astounded you’ve made it this far
Living on lies from the very start
I can’t believe I didn’t see it before
My eyes opened, so did the door
A storm is coming
Time to move
I think it’s time for a revolution
(It’s already in motion)
Time to fight for what’s been broken
(What’s been broken)
I won’t stay underneath your boot
Rise above to something new
The only resolution
Is revolution
Let the old world burn
I think it’s time for a revolution
(It’s already in motion)
Time to fight for what’s been broken
I won’t stay underneath your boot
Rise above to something new
The only resolution
Is revolution
Revolution

I have been waiting for this physical release for 5 years and been a huge fan of Brandon's music for 10(thanks pandora lol). This album marks the time in his musical journey where he went to working/ recording independently. And the new direction was so much more improved from that of ephemeral, IMHO. Here is a well curated album with tracks to the future!! Thanks for pressing this. 11 out of 10!!!

I'm not usually into the harder rock stuff, but this one is a real head-nodder. The whole album is great! I appreciate how Celldweller has track titles do a "cameo" in other tracks, so the whole album feels like a cohesive whole instead of a bag of unrelated tracks. This is with all the albums, not just this one. Love your work Klayton.
