Never Surrender

from Orphans 1 (EP) by Rise Of The Ziggurat

about

Previously titled 'Equinox.' This song was played once live, at the Brunswick in 2017.

lyrics

The monsters crashing in
The lights are getting dim
Who's your martyr now?

I tried to make amends
Instead my will depends
I miss you my old pal

And of all the people here
Turn away until answers appear
And you know where I am

I begin to understand
That the problems are in my hands
And they won't go away

NEVER SURRENDER ALWAYS SURVIVE

I can see the pixels
The crystal in your eyes
Awoken to the world old routines try to hide
Begging for a meaning
And longing for a cause
Don't wish ones time away
Wait
Step back
Pause

See the different colours
And wash away the fear
Those crystal eyes are hungry
And things aren't as they appear

The loudest seem misguided
The silent care too much
And some have lost the meaning
They are simply out of touch

People they are people
And your gods they are weak
For allowing you to think that you've reached natures peak

Why should we define us on successes only gained
By feeding off the weaker prole and shifting all the blame
It isn't too late, so let this lesson be learned
Never again should a blind eye be turned

And level your demons, whilst you still are alive
And never surrender
And always survive

It's taken an age, to heed all the scars
The illusion was weak not confined to the past
All things we once did achieve, will fade away

I will not forget, you won't suck me in
Your lies they are weak and beginning to thin
The castle is crumbling down and I can't get out
