we're addicted we're addicted to it there's no end there's no way or accounting for it we're addicted we're addicted to shit you must admit that we're addicted to it
trading our lies selling our lives there's no remorse just our demise
it's a new day you'd expect that you'd see there's a lot written down in our history and a caveman's not so different than me because he'll eat what he thinks is hot and easy
you can take it stride take someone's side you can take it all down but we're still here inside
inside I can see I can see the machine is a part of me
inside I can see I can see and seeing is believing inside
I can see I can see the machine is a part of me inside
I can see I can see and seeing is believing in

itty bitty tiny little lies you tell yourself they might be coming true
good to know the truth is just a tale you weave inside yourself to justify the things you do oh oh oh oh no
I am a little scared and I am you
you are a little scared of me and this too
I am a little lost and I repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat you
it's what you bought oh it's what you made lay down it's what you bought and paid for it's what you made so lay down and if your heart's still out then you might keep hanging around

mirror in me do you wanna dance with this abduction or put your heart to the test right there in the energy mirror in me tearing you apart from my heart breaks but I'm a ghost if I stay and deny what's inside of me I've got to be free and I'm better off better off without you
put your heart put your heart right there there in the energy
mirror in me staring into dark and from that dark place I'm the most I'm alive and alive is the side of me that wants to be free
mirror in me falling from a star is like a heart-weight but I'm a part of the sun and the stars are inside of me and birds will be free and I'm better off better off without you
so put your heart put your heart right there there in the energy

there's an eye inside the storm you can feel a little rain if you're mad at someone else well then you've got a lot of hurt and you feel a lot of pain if you recognize yourself and you think of something warm when you open up your heart well then you've got what it takes to make it alive and get out of the storm
get out of get out of get out of the storm
there's an eye inside your heart there's a heart inside your brain if you look inside of that well then you'll drive 'em all to hell and you'll drive yourself insane if you reconcile yourself be the function in your form when you stand with someone else well then you've got what it takes to make it alive and get out of the storm get out of get out of get out of the storm
day day day stormy day day day stormy day day day stormy night
it's in your hand become the eye of the storm it's in your heart become calm

It Never Was

it was The Age of Fiction and it stoked addiction and some say we should have called it The Age of Rage it was The Age of Fiction and it lit the kitchen and no one knows what became it never was
jimmy likes to eat meat jenny likes to eat crow complicity is so sweet with nobody in the know but the truth is gonna cut you like an old rope burning like a new gear turning on the wheel of the world singing there's no cure like a slow sun burning like a real star spinning at the end of the world singing it never was it never was
you've got one thing less to say and your think it's all been said it's a lot of trust in the page and the voices in your head it's an emancipation from the erased exit eject
it was The Age of Fiction and it stoked addiction and some say we should have called it The Age of Rage it was The Age of Fiction and it lit the kitchen and no one knows what became it never was
going out for a treat going out to the show in a sense an elite is no one you want to know but the truth is gonna cut you like an old rope burning like new gear turning on the wheel of the world singing there's no cure like a slow sun burning like a real star spinning at the end of the world singing it never was it never was
there's a lot of stuff here to say but the words have not been read make my heart and head a fillet 'til the masters have been fed I lost some information in my reflex cortex relax

Age of Fiction Seattle, Washington
Husband and Wife Duo Bryan (drummer) and Holly Csiga (vocalist, keyboardist) serve up original, hot, heavy rock epics for the prog minded. The wall of sound is as sonic as it is heartfelt, magic tricks of synth, voice and drums.
Age of Fiction recommends:
You’re Killing Me Fresno
by Brian Kenney Fresno
Life changes if you see a performer who is doing everything at once and rocking it this fucking hard. There is a rareness to finding these people but once you do find them, there is no going back.
