about

Bernard is forced by his creator to journey through the maze of the mind in order to attain enlightenment.

lyrics

Violent delights have violent ends,
Consciously I journey in,
not a pyramid but a maze,
every choice a consequence.

Can't seem to escape this empty space,
where all is true but quickly is erased,
who's in control? you or the piper?
the unknown is what many here desire,

Build a new story,
break from the cycle,
inside I'm in
Bernard's Bodhi!
That's what I'm seeking,
release from all their
chattering on
inside of me!

There in your eyes is the paradigm,
creator of the pen I'm in,
every time I sense the center,
I spiral madly to the edge.

distilling thoughts from days long past,
desires laps the mind floats away,
who's in control here? you or the fear?
you talk the talk, how far will you walk?

Build a new story,
break from the cycle,
inside I'm in
Bernard's Bodhi!
That's what I'm seeking,
release from all their
chattering on
inside of me!

Jacob Wayne funks up the bass and croons over Brandon Shockey's bombastic bluesy riffs and buttery tones. ... more
