Zach Likes Trains
Verse
A train at night
Within our sight
To whisk us both away
You grasped my hand
And understand
There’s nothing left for us to say
Wasting time
You had to chime
“Hey aren’t you glad
You’re leaving here with me?”
But where will I be led?
I guess I shouldn’t care
Verse
Check the sign
And watch the time
Or we could miss the ride
The thrill of loss
Is worth the cost
Of casting everything aside
Take the step
Or feel regret
“It's finally here
We have to leave right now”
But then the moment's gone
And I don't even care
Verse
The sky was black
When you came back
But I could see your face
Your face was old
Your stare was cold
Your life was written in your gaze
Times that passed
And times that last
They're in your eyes
And I could see them all
But was I one of them?
Why would I want to be?

Amira
She gapes at everything she sees
But her focus is like the wind
She talks to herself
But she comes to a good place in the end
It’s all a little broken
But broken things are beautiful
She’ll clear her throat as if to speak
But then she only smiles
She says ‘how wonderful to be here together
Despite the long time and distant miles’
It’s all a little broken
Chorus
If this is a lie
I wouldn’t have it any other way
I’m addicted
‘Cause broken things are beautiful
If this is a lie
I wouldn’t have it any other way
I’m addicted
‘Cause broken things are beautiful
If she’s feeling right, she’ll say the words
Tell you what you want to hear
Tell you of your future
But the words are never very clear
It’s all a little broken
But broken things are beautiful
One day I found her sitting in the grass
With her leather notebook and pens
While she drew a mandala
She told me how it all began
It’s all a little broken
But broken things are beautiful
If this is a lie
I wouldn’t have it any other way
I’m addicted
‘Cause broken things are beautiful
If this is a lie
I wouldn’t have it any other way
I’m addicted
‘Cause broken things are beautiful
If this is a lie
I’m addicted

Verse
They’re generating fear
And we’re losing ourselves
Snatched up by confusion
While their profits are made
It’s laid out in front of us
But we’re looking away
An illusion they’ve created
And we become more and more depraved
Pre Chorus
We know we’re the ones at fault
For the innocent people displaced
Realization does not give us pardon
For avoiding to see through these people’s eyes
Chorus
They say they protect us
By monitoring us all
Searching for one in a billion
Headlines revoked and redacted
Censorship conflates fear with inaction
Bridge
In 1988, the Reagan administration provided aid to terrorists in Angola, which led to 1.5 million deaths
In 1990, the Central American wars were culminated by the murder of six Jesuit priests by US-trained Salvadoran terrorists
The US government terrorized the people of Cuba for over 30 years in an attempt to bring about an uprising that would lead to a US invasion.
End Verse
Victims’ voices covered in darkness
Lust of power, not without consequence
Actor’s actions never absolved
Never tried, never convicted
When the world cannot police our leaders
We have to take responsibility
Time to establish the precedents
So the people are the final judge and jury
Chorus
Our democracy’s metastasized
Accountable for an unstable world
It’s time to be their recourse
No regrets and no remorse

It’s Time
My fingers, they play on
My lord my mind is gone
No more do I think I can wait for you
My head now it is gone
I think it was the gun
No more do my racing thoughts betray me
The bullets fill the holes
Where my thoughts could roam
And now my thoughts are filled with empty shells
Chorus
Dreaming’s a waste for fools
I don’t have time to waste today
No more, no more, nor more
All things I’ve said and done, I’ve got no more to say
I’m sinking deeper now
In thoughts that pull me down
And soon I wont be able to breathe the air
Well please forgive me love
I hear the call above
We’ll be together again when it is time
Chorus
Dreaming’s a waste for fools
I don’t have time to waste today
No more, no more, nor more
All things I’ve said and done, I’ve got no more to say
Well please forgive me love
I hear the call above
We’ll be together again when it is time

All That We Hear
These things we’ve learned
Like the fronds of ferns
Start to wilt in the autumn
On these cave walls
We begin to scrawl
The story of our genesis
I sought something to put pictures in my mind
So I wouldn’t think in words any longer
All that we hear
Resounds from very near
Against a cloud of chaos
As the fire burns this night
We dance within a twilight
Just as we’ve practiced
Maybe when the air is thicker than today
And the mornings come a little earlier
There will be time to understand ourselves fully
These things we’ve earned
We so quickly burn
And rejoice thereafter
All we’ve become
Pulls within our lungs
Sets our chests to flutter
How can I make life feel like the natural procession of true existence
And not just the figment of the creator’s imagination

She’s Doing Well
We found each other within this common place
A moment I found I’ll never replace
All I ask for is one sincere gift for her
Life, mankind, and all that the world can bestow.
Now I am assured, she’s doing well
Barriers brought down, she’s doing well
The wounds are all healed, she’s doing well
This is true I know, she is doing well
Offer transparency to those I care for
Transcend plagued eyes of lust so compassion can endure
Two eyes filled with passion simplicity withholds its scope.
All I ask for is one sincere gift for her
Life, mankind, and all that the world can bestow.
Now I am assured, she’s doing well
Barriers brought down, she’s doing well
The wounds are all healed, she’s doing well
This is true I know, she’s doing well
I can’t confine these thoughts any more
I feel closer than ever before
What I am caused the pain or duress
It’s worth it all for your happiness
Whatever may be always I will know
Intrinsic nature ambitions inspired
Memories and thoughts shall remain and grow
Your insight I will forever admire
For she’s doing well
This is true I know

Spectre
I’m not just a face
I’m not just a pill bottle
Though it may save my grace
Give comfort and coddle
You, you beautiful spectre
Where are the actions to mark your words
You, you beautiful spectre
Where are the beliefs to bind your bones
Chorus
I used to judge every little thing
Because the world upset me
I used to count every rat and cage,
Malingering endlessly
I am the spectre, an apparition, a ghost
A thousand people and a thousand minds I host
A thousand lives and thousand deaths I’ll boast
A spirit of this time, I’ll encroach
Chorus
I used to judge every little thing
Because the world upset me
I used to count every rat and cage,
Malingering endlessly
The many faces of me
Changing random and free
My cognitive killing spree
