Can It Be

We've stolen away all that can be
Housing the faceless in books we read
A choice is greater then what lies beneath
Running down the pendulum as it swings
God help you
Don't ask me
How or where I believe
My choices
My falters
Returning to me
Take a look in the mirror
Hoping to find the center
Complacency weathered wearing thin I can't even fathom
The key to the world within a
Iris that locks away
The reflection keeping the world at bay
Please pray for children lost in its wake
Removed from the space that denotes my being
I'm caught at the summit beyond what eyes see
The vessels tilted down an endless stream
Running down the pendulum as it swings
My brothers
My sisters
Do you really know me
My struggles
Misfortunes
Remained underneath
Take a look in the mirror
Hoping to find the center
Complacency weathered wearing thin
I can't even fathom
The key to the world within a
Iris that locks away the reflection
Keeping the world at bay
Please pray for children
Lost in its wake
Damnations gather at my feet
Gently I pick up the lost and the meek
Barren wastelands a forging all unseen
Running down that pendulum as it swings
Submissive to what we’ve gathered speaks
Amuse by the silence her pious preach
The perilous will wonder how can it be
Yeaaahhh
Running down that pendulum as it swings
With every passage built in vain
I may not make it through this day
Hollow caves and grave mistakes
Forgive me
My passes
With all that I can see
This torture
That Anger
Brings me to my knees
Yeah, take a look in the mirror
Hoping to find the center
Complacency weathered wearing thin I
Can't even fathom
The key to the world within a
Iris that locks away
The reflection keeping the world at bay
Please pray for the children
Lost in its wake

Azrael
This city is afraid of me
They’ve seen my true face
What more do you want from me?
They put the world on a pedestal
And I stood in the brink annihilation
(Save us)
How it all came to be undone
In the blink of
an eye of a god
(What’s good?)
Why not by the penny of a thought
On the doubt of the word
And all stood
(Say ye, what’s good?)
Why not by the power of a few
In a room full of owls
Oh, I wish you would
Y'all here fucking up my conscience
Y'all here fucking up my peace
No blame but my own mistake
I put my trust in the vain
And they fell to the world erased
No blame but my own betrayed
And they stood on the side of the left
While their right to a fuck to the face?
Ariel Hook:
I’m so numb now
I can’t hold on
I can’t be strong
I can’t hold back the way that I am
No, I’m so numb now
I won’t crumble
I won’t let you inside of my head
Ariel:
Stop all the hating waiting for something to come along
Hoping to find a way out of this bull shit
And gravitate to a new dawn
The world is of a home of crying
Out of your conscious out control, press the limit yet overzealous,
Grave to the matter of negative
Life is a pain of existence, like the wrist you slit at night to find the light
3 cheers for suffering
Make it alright with a bottle at night
You're in control of your destiny
perceive what you wanna believe of your reality
Face to the ground numb as hell
So fuck the pain
And fuck the word
I bid you well
Azrael Hook: 2x
Y'all here fucking up my conscience
Y'all here fucking up my peace
I’m right here at the tipping point
And I’m about to pull the wool over these sheep…
Ariel:
Slightly catatonic and demonic
Fallen, crawling out form stable
Failure the nurturing nature
Suffer rejoiced in dark tonight
Azrael:
World torn in a great divide
Sleight of handing the keys
By any means
They deceive the eyes
No choice but to choose a side
If you’re not with you’re against us
You will surely die…
Ariel:
No hauling it appalling
The toppled human existence
Gone no fight
I give you the pleasure of a fucked up future in flight
Azrael:
Here standing at the paradigm again
On the edge of world’s end
Be the change that we all need
Just breathe in the light
Exhale the fears of the mind
For it’s you that create this reality
Ariel:
Your babbling constant
Dishonest
stupidity faceless forever caving
Impatient when you say
Life sucks and I had a bad day
Ariel/Azrael:
I’m so numb now
Y'all here fucking up my conscience
I can’t hold on
Y'all here fucking up my peace
I can’t be strong
I’m right here at the tipping point
I can’t hold back the way that I am
And I’m about to pull the wool over these sheep…
No, I’m so numb now
Y'all here fucking up my conscience
I won’t crumble
Y'all here fucking up my peace
I won’t let you inside of my head
I’m right here at the tipping point
And I’m about to pull the wool over these sheep…
Pause
I’m so numb now
Y'all here fucking up my conscience
I can’t hold on
Y'all here fucking up my peace
I can’t be strong
I’m right here at the tipping point
I can’t hold back the way that I am
And I’m about to pull the wool over these sheep…
No, I’m so numb now
Y'all here fucking up my conscience
I won’t crumble
Y'all here fucking up my peace
I won’t let you inside of my head
I’m right here at the tipping point
And I’m about to pull the wool over these sheep…

WHAT HAVE MAY Seattle, Washington
WHAT HAVE MAY... The group was created in 2012 and is labelled as genreless music. WHAT HAVE MAY brings dynamic music with a thematic message. Their sound is noteworthy of that NorthWest Seattle grey gloominess over cinematic composition.
WHAT HAVE MAY recommends:
Amazing genre-bending artist.

Eyedea: The Many Faces of Mikey
by Micheal Larsen
supported by 5 fans who also own “The Grey Iris”
I have been listening to variations of this album a long time. I remember I was living in a cardboard dumpster when some young guy was like yo dude it's gonna rain come crash on my couch. He played The Many Faces of Oliver Hart for me. I fell in love, I set my favorite track as Rain because we looped it when the rain came. That was one of the early acts of kindness I received in the nearly 20 years I've been homeless.
