Resist
Lyrics written by Robert M. Duvall
It’s my time to forgive,
My soul for the tears,
That I cried over you,
A million times I can’t resist.
All the guilt and the pain,
When will it ever end?
Silent I will always pay for
The way I can’t resist.
A million times I can’t resist
For the rest of my life
I will long for your light
I’ll just wait for that taste
The kiss I can’t resist.
All I see, is the way
He treats you, everyday
But you run, back to him
The way you can’t resist.
A million times I can’t resist.
The way you break my heart.
The way you can’t resist
The way you break my heart.

Shape the Shackles
Lyrics written by Robert M. Duvall
The shape of….the shackles…your destined…to follow….
The lies…can be heard in the cries
The fears…can be seen in the tears
With no….purpose in life but to fear
Now your breaking the dreams of the weak
Now you try to walk away
Saying please not today
Why does this happen?
It’s all too much this……….
The peace you will never find
Destined to walk the line
How does this happen?
It’s just too much this time.
You…feast on the struggles within
Again…over and over again
Now…your purpose in life is clear
To shape the shackles your destined to wear
Now you try to walk away
Saying please not today
Why does this happen?
It’s all too much this…….
The peace you will never find
Destined to walk the line
How does this happen?
It’s just too much this time.

For $ale
Lyrics written by Robert M. Duvall
Well you make a wish on your birthday,
For things that just don’t amount.
The candles burn so brightly,
But one by one they go out.
Your tongue so wicked, it’s borrowed
By all the sheep that come out.
While all the wolves are waiting,
To steal the power through out.
For sale, your life means nothing
In time, your light burns out
Just drop your wish in a bottle,
And wait for the day to come around.
Or put your faith in the good book,
And rape the fortunes you find.
You preach on all that’s holy,
Turn all the water into wine.
Through all the smoke and the mirrors,
Can’t hide the greed in your eyes.
For sale, your soul means nothing.
In time, your light burns out
For sale, your life means nothing.
In time, your light burns out

Invisible Ink
Lyrics written by Robert M. Duvall
It’s so quiet in your little world,
Lost in stories on pages curled.
Around and around the emotions of love,
That fill your heart with thoughts of above.
It calls you away deep in the night,
The dreams and visions of another life.
Safe and sound away from the fears
No longer scared and soaked from the tears.
Invisible Ink…is not the cure
The more you hide….the more it calls
Invisible Ink….can’t hide the scars
The more you try….the more you fall.
The lies that you tell yourself,
From all the times you’ve been put on a shelf.
You know they know how to break you down,
The peace you seek is lost and never found.
Those shoes that you can never fill,
The loss of life that haunts your still.
All the lines you cut deep in your flesh,
Your cry out to start afresh.
Invisible Ink…is not the cure
The more you hide….the more it calls
Invisible Ink….can’t hide the scars
The more you try….the more you fall.

Weight
Lyrics written by Robert M. Duvall
You push it down, the same damn hate
Can’t stop it now, your final fate.
Feelings aside, they just get in the way
They pick at you, all day and night
The words they burn like fire and ice
The monster screams, why care what it says?
You pay for this hell everyday
The pressure, the weight
You pick it up, the cold blue steel
Just do it now, a time to kill
The reasons burn away the tears
Your blood runs cold, the final time
Just throw the switch they’ll see the sign
Release the weight You soul turns black
You pay for this hell everyday
The pressure, the weight

Fourth Wall
Lyrics written by Robert M. Duvall
There is a feeling that somethings not right.
Like eyes are watching both day and night.
Trapped in a prison of our own design.
Living our lives one scene at a time.
On stage for the watcher’s to cheer.
The fourth wall there’s nothing to fear.
The looking glass, or a mirror to me?
The fourth wall for all to see.
Now there’s a sense that this life isn’t real
The watcher’s eyes that are trying to steal
We play the part in a story to tell
Is this a role or a living hell?
You only see what they want you to be
The puppets dance, the strings you can’t see
Trapped in the scenes from a memory
If you believe then you’ll never be free.
On stage for the watcher’s to cheer.
The fourth wall there’s nothing to fear.
The looking glass, or a mirror to me?
The fourth wall for all to see.

The Plan
Lyrics written by Robert M. Duvall
I wanted more than I asked for
I stayed longer than I should
I thought I had all the answers
For all the ones….misunderstood
For years and years I looked for solace
In all the things that causes pain
The devil walks here beside me.
In these shadows that hide my shame.
I threw away the things that mattered
Some days I find it hard to stand
Still reaching out to find the ladder
That leads me back to the plan
Too speak the words, “I am sorry”
Seems like an easy thing to say
So many lives have been taken,
Never to be seen again.
They say that time is borrowed
And we must all pay for it someday
The minutes and hours burn so quickly
Time takes these ashes all away.

Flood
Lyrics written by Robert M. Duvall
You can’t keep the dirt out six feet in the ground
You won’t stop the rising flood, no matter how tall you stand.
Allow me to introduce the me I used to be,
When you want to welcome yourself to me
Always threatening to turn over a new leaf
So don’t waste the bitter and the sweet.
You can’t keep the dirt out six feet in the ground
You won’t stop the rising flood, no matter how tall you stand.
Well don’t you know you shouldn’t talk to strangers
You may not like all the hidden dangers
That goes along with the conversation
Your tired shit just tries my patience.
You can’t keep the dirt out six feet in the ground
You won’t stop the rising flood, no matter how tall you stand.
The wind won’t stop blowing, no matter the war you bring
The water takes the shape of anything that it can.

FIVE by FIVE
Lyrics written by Robert M. Duvall
You have forced this hand,
An act that cannot stand.
Treason for the men,
That will not defend.
Now our freedom under fire,
From those that have desire.
To kill our right to choose,
Distort the truth…confuse.
5 x 5….Am I clear?
5 x 5….The end is near.
5 x 5….Can you hear?
5 x 5….The messiah is here!
Tolerance that you preach upon,
Seems to hide behind your tongue.
You never really want it to end,
That would be the ultimate sin.
Indifference for the truth,
Injustice, persecution and dispute.
If I said I understand,
All those reasons you can’t defend.
While they lay wreaths upon the graves,
Thinking that it will all go away
Putting faces on each war they wage.
The final price never equals the rage.
They all want the same.
The power, sex and fame.
The addictions draws you in,
To serve the seven sins.
All the places never seen,
Wanting more of the obscene.
One rule your need to know,
Is sell yourself for more.
5 x 5….Am I clear?
5 x 5….The end is near.
5 x 5….Can you hear?
5 x 5….The messiah is here!
When will we learn, the hurt is growing.
With every turn, the earth is burning.
The silent man, full of devotion.
His heart is bound on the destruction
Too many times, the signs were clear
Can’t stop it now, the end is near!

My Parade
Lyrics written by Robert M. Duvall
This is where I wait
A path leads to my fate
A trade for the life I take
Cold walls that can’t break
This sickness never goes away
Your misery is my parade
Your mind is where I prey
Relive those thoughts that stay
No peace until ….that May
Now asleep, my final day
This silence is day to day
Deep down the layers peel away
This sickness never goes away
Your misery is my parade.
This is where I lay
These ashes that blow away
No words, no final say
My misery is your parade.
This silence is day to day
Deep down the layers peel away
This sickness never goes away
Your misery is my parade.

The Obsession
Lyrics written by Robert M. Duvall
I - Birth
A son… was born… in a land all alone,
TIn a year…. before the storm.
Taken…far away… across the open seas
Never to return…a king to be
Some day… he will hear the call
Of the obsession, and of the fall
II - The Uprising
Bonds formed in the dark of night
To burn the line of blood that unites
Men stand in the name of greed
Each willing to take the lead
Now they seek only one desire,
To take the crown of the last true sire
Feeding on the fear and hate
This obsession will seal their fate
III - The Downfall
The battle rages….on and on
Men, women, children…families torn
Fighting for freedom …..of the unborn
The weight of man…will break the bond.
IV - The Destruction
The years have passed, a life’s work over
Memories remain, the fire grows older
The one’s who follow, their lives grow colder
Standing on ashes, the obsession is over
V - Return
A son was born.
In a year before the storm
This man remains thru all the fear and pain
The blood of kings will fight to take the reign.

Convictions
Lyrics written by Robert M. Duvall
Where’s the line between truth and fiction?
When a man had faith and conviction
In the way he held his head.
Apologies come by the dozens
Only sorry when you get caught
In the lie of the day.
Now maybe it’s time to take back our pride and fight....
Only love what you can borrow
On the backs of the ones of tomorrow
There’s a sickness in our face.
We take and take until there’s no tomorrow
We just give into the sorrow
That’s created in our minds
Now maybe it’s time to take back our pride and fight....
Now we all feel guilt in succeeding
Regret is failure for all the wrong reasons
Its such a sad state that were in.
Trust who they say follow
Even if their soul is hollow,
We try to reason, with ourselves.
Now maybe it’s time to take back our pride.
And fight..... for our lives.

Ties that Bind
Lyrics written by Robert M. Duvall
We all wear these faces that try to hide the traces
Of where the bad things go......
These cobwebs tell a tale of a mind that's distant
And can never be whole.....
These ties that bind
I find…fit me well
A mask that hides the sorrow, of what may come tomorrow.
We wait for it to unfold.....
The scars from all the seasons, there are no simple reasons.
Sometimes we just lose control......
These ties that bind
I find…fit me well
All of this wishful thinking
Is wrong and overrated
These sacred places
Have lost their soul
These ties that bind
I find…fit me well
These ties that bind
I find…fit me well

Apathy
Lyrics written by Robert M. Duvall
The devil in me….I can’t explain
The awful truth….that still remains
Well it’s not what I did, but its still the same
Night after night…I can’t feel the shame
All I want to do is run away, can’t face another day
Can’t fix the tragedy, not blind but I don’t want to see
The further I get away, from all this apathy
We stand alone…and all obey
The sleep in our eyes..well it’s all okay
Just swallow the pill…it all goes away
No lessons learned…just another day
All we do is run away, we can’t face another day
We won’t fix the tragedy, no matter the scenes we see.
Further that we get away, from all the apathy
