When you allow anger to run amuck inside of you, you become blinded by reason and bereft of rational thought. This leads to actions and words that may be unintentional because you're afraid of self-expression. You bury the anger within.
A unique blend of hard rock, pop, hip hop and rap.

Story behind the song
A good friend of ours, Jeff Eberhardt, was in between gigs and was looking for a band to jam with. It had been awhile since we had all played together so we started kicking some ideas around with him. This is one of the songs that we came up with. It's a little harder edged than some of the songs we've written in the past, but it definitely has an energy and feel to it that represents our style of songwriting.
Lyrics
Verse 1:
Gotta feel that’s building up; it’s taking control
Gotta feel that’s building up; it’s taking control
Gotta feel that’s building up; it’s taking control
Gotta feel that’s building up…
You walk and live the way I want you to
Give me all your strength so I can control you
Every time I hear you speak I swear that you’re lying
Every time I hear you speak I swear that you’re lying
Every time I hear you speak I swear that you’re lying
Every time I hear you speak…
You walk and live the way I want you to
Give me all your strength so I can control you
Chorus:
You’re blinded
Trapped in ways of your anger
To leave you in darkness and leave you alone
You’re blinded
Trapped in ways of your anger
To leave you in darkness and leave you alone
Verse 2:
Every time I hear you speak it’s with the tongue of a serpentine
Every time I hear you speak it’s with the tongue of a serpentine
Every time I hear you speak it’s with the tongue of a serpentine
Every time I hear you speak it’s…
You walk a line bad to befriend you
Come off your high horse so I can consume you
You can never be the truth always change your story
You can never be the truth always change your story
You can never be the truth always change your story
You can never be the truth…
You walk a line bad to befriend you
Come off your high horse so I can consume you
Bridge:
Makin me believe you every time you put your darkness in me
Hear the madness of my soul scream
Makin me believe you every time you put your darkness in me
Hear the madness of my soul scream
Chorus:
You’re blinded
Lost to ways of your anger
To leave you in darkness and leave you alone
You’re blinded
Lost to ways of your anger
To leave you in darkness and leave you alone
Bridge:
Makin me believe you every time you put your darkness in me
Hear the madness of my soul scream
Makin me believe you every time you put your darkness in me
Hear the madness of my soul scream
