Hidden In Plain View 03:57
lyrics
I'm not one to fake it Don't tell me how I should feel Broken down and naked Now I'm free to heal I've been trying so hard To be your perfect Thing Now this has gone too far This is my Becoming I am writing a new beginning with you All this time I've been looking for something Hidden In Plain View The layers have been unpeeled Nowhere left to hide The Truth's now longer concealed Who knows what you might find I'm not broken I'm stronger than ever My eyes have been opened The Chord has been severed I am writing a new beginning with you All this time I've been looking for something Hidden In Plain View Do you like what you see? I am writing a new beginning with you All this time I've been looking for something Hidden In Plain View

Bleak 04:04
lyrics
I'm not known to look at the bright side I never know if I'll be alright I think it's better if I stay inside Trapped in here with this Sickness in my mind I can't put my faith in something that I can't see I can't put my faith in something that I can't believe I can't put my faith in something that I can't see I can't put my faith in something that I can't believe Don't you tell me what to think You are the reason why my outlook is so Bleak I won't let you influence me Spare me the pleasure of your company I wish I could put my eyes in your head So you could see what the world looks like to me I'd like to reprogram you And reconstruct your Circuitry I can't put my faith in something that I can't see I can't put my faith in something that I can't believe I can't put my faith in something that I can't see I can't put my faith in something that I can't believe Don't you tell me what to think You are the reason why my outlook is so Bleak I won't let you influence me Spare me the pleasure of your company I can't put my faith in something that I can't see I can't put my faith in something that I can't believe I can't put my faith in something that I can't see I can't put my faith in something that I can't believe Don't you tell me what to think You are the reason why my outlook is so Bleak I won't let you influence me Spare me the pleasure of your company

Toxic Injection 04:13
lyrics
Welcome the Toxic Injection Take comfort in the Infection Give in to the infatuation Get off on you Plastic obsession How do you live without a Soul? Don't you know you're not the one in control? I know it's not my place But let me tell you 'bout the state of the Human Race The Human Race Line up to take your Medication It's a public execution Look at all the Sheep in sedation Too late for a course correction How do you live without a Soul? Don't you know you're not the one in control? I know it's not my place But let me tell you 'bout the state of the Human Race The Human Race Take some time to heal From all the things you wish you couldn't feel You know you wanna take some time to heal From all the things you wish you couldn't feel Sometimes you gotta take some time to heal From all the things you wish you couldn't feel You know you gotta take some time to heal From all the things you wish you couldn't feel How do you live without a Soul? Don't you know you're not the one in control? I know it's not my place But let me tell you 'bout the state of the Human Race The Human Race

The It 02:41
lyrics
I pledged my Allegiance to the authority you sanctified Wrapped It up and sealed It tight with care and placed It deep inside Let It grow and fester like a Wound in hopes It would rectify All the travesties around me that you love to vilify It will Defile you Taunt you and Haunt you It will Control you And you'll never break through Take me away This foul smell is killing me I need to break away Consider the possibilities So take me away This foul smell is killing me I need to break away Consider the possibilities Shed my outer skin and watch as the world gets turned upside down My patience is wearing thin it's my turn now to take the Crown Shed my outer skin and watch as the world gets turned upside down My patience is wearing thin it's my turn now to take the Crown It will Defile you Taunt you and Haunt you It will Control you And you'll never break through Take me away This foul smell is killing me I need to break away Consider the possibilities So take me away This foul smell is killing me I need to break away Consider the possibilities

Puppet 03:23
lyrics
Like an animal in the Zoo Everything is in Plain View It's laid out right in front of you Like puzzle pieces scattered across the floor Everything is on display And It entices you to stay You're already under my Spell Take your narcissistic thoughts and leave them at the door Your words were just the building blocks for what I have in store for you I was raised by Hypocrites and Liars I Will Not Be Your Puppet Let my nature drag you in Now the Freakshow can begin Make you dirty with my Sin Don't try to fight it 'cause you can't win You can't resist my temptation I'll possess you in slow motion I am that which you try to suppress Submit yourself to My Caress Take your narcissistic thoughts and leave them at the door Your words were just the building blocks for what I have in store for you I was raised by Hypocrites and Liars I Will Not Be Your Puppet Take your narcissistic thoughts and leave them at the door Your words were just the building blocks for what I have in store for you I was raised by Hypocrites and Liars I Will Not Be Your Puppet I Will Not Be Your Puppet

Angel With Prosthetic Wings 06:03
lyrics
She stands there like a porcelain doll Staring at me with Her glassy eyes She's the Angel With Prosthetic Wings She entices me with Her perfect smile She digs Her way beneath her skin Her voice will make you want to Sin Once you hear Her Siren Song You can't help but to Sing Along She digs Her way beneath her skin Her voice will make you want to Sin Once you hear Her Siren Song You can't help but to Sing Along Dear God, please grant me strength I'm on my knees begging for your sting Please tell me it's all a dream Lord, please forgive me for I must Sin She gives me all that I need (But it's all stained with blood) My Angel With Prosthetic Wings (All that's in my veins is mud) She shows me things I can't believe (But is it even real) My Angel With Prosthetic Wings (And it's my Soul that She'll steal) Trapped in this artificial Heaven Sometimes it feels more like a prison But I'm the Protagonist and She's the Villain Yet I'm locked up while She's out walking She's out walking I don't feel like I should But I can't help but to Sing Along She gives me all that I need (But it's all stained with blood) My Angel With Prosthetic Wings (All that's in my veins is mud) She shows me things I can't believe (But is it even real) My Angel With Prosthetic Wings (And it's my Soul that She'll steal)

Constellation 06:13
lyrics
Take in the view Clear your mind as you Consume Let the Violence subdue The Violence in you My Constellation Once again I call to you Put your candidness to use Let you pilot the ship It's hard to admit My Inspiration By the way I'm just confused By the lights surrounding you I'm just trying to say I won't cry if you stay My Isolation Yesterday I felt the pain That I've grown numb to today 'Cause I found you again Please stay here till the end My Revelation I wish that Violence Could be expunged from time Just delete it from our minds I know that sorrow Will be forever there Evolving into despair I wish that Violence Could be expunged from time Just delete it from our minds I know that sorrow Will be forever there Evolving into despair Fighting and denying I am an Intangible Thing Hiding and waiting All will fall before the Terror I bring Fighting and denying I am an Intangible Thing Hiding and waiting All will fall before the Terror I bring I wish that Violence Could be expunged from time Just delete it from our minds I know that sorrow Will be forever there Evolving into despair Do not assume That your flame will light the room 'Cause the Stars all look the same You'll be trying, but in vein My Resignation Try again don't be afraid Look at all the things you've made But they're mutated now And I will not allow My Constellation I wish that Violence Could be expunged from time Just delete it from our minds I know that sorrow Will be forever there Evolving into despair I wish that Violence Could be expunged from time Just delete it from our minds I know that sorrow Will be forever there Evolving into despair

Limousine 02:54
lyrics
Welcome to your picture-perfect manufactured Paradise Hollow eyes and Plastic faces when you read between the lines Revel in the experience not questioning a single lie Like a perfect little slave just shut up and do another line Line up for you Dose of Dopamine Get your next fix in the back of a Limousine Copy your persona from the cover of a magazine Look at yourself you're a walking fallacy Line up for you Dose of Dopamine Get your next fix in the back of a Limousine Copy your persona from the cover of a magazine Look at yourself you're a walking fallacy Take a look around! The answers right in front of you But can you hear the sound? Of a thousand screaming voices look at yourself! You are just another victim Afraid to cry for help Take it from me I know just how it feels Lift the curtain to reveal the ugliness behind it all You've been looking everywhere but it's all written upon the walls Consume the propaganda or you'll feel the symptoms of withdrawal So without a second thought you become another Sentinel Line up for you Dose of Dopamine Get your next fix in the back of a Limousine Copy your persona from the cover of a magazine Look at yourself you're a walking fallacy Line up for you Dose of Dopamine Get your next fix in the back of a Limousine Copy your persona from the cover of a magazine Look at yourself you're a walking fallacy Take a look around! The answers right in front of you But can you hear the sound? Of a thousand screaming voices look at yourself! You are just another victim Afraid to cry for help Take it from me I know just how it feels Line up for you Dose of Dopamine Get your next fix in the back of a Limousine Copy your persona from the cover of a magazine Look at yourself you're a walking fallacy Take a look around! The answers right in front of you But can you hear the sound? Of a thousand screaming voices look at yourself! You are just another victim Afraid to cry for help Take it from me I know just how it feels

Claustrophobic 02:45
lyrics
One step forward Two steps back Getting nowhere Lightning fast I can't keep up With all the things The house around me Is crumbling I just wanna stop and breath But the world stop spinning I stay up all night thinking How I wish I could stop feeling I just wanna stop and breath But the world stop spinning I stay up all night thinking How I wish I could stop feeling I don't know if I'll Survive Break the Cycle Hit the breaks Let's reignite It And cut the chains This place is hopeless No end in sight I've grown so calloused Where is the Light? I just wanna stop and breath But the world stop spinning I stay up all night thinking How I wish I could stop feeling I just wanna stop and breath But the world stop spinning I stay up all night thinking How I wish I could stop feeling I don't know if I'll Survive I don't know if I'll Survive

Monster I Am 04:36
lyrics
Take it from me It's not always what it seems You can ask me to breathe But what would you hope to see? 'Cause I'm already stoned I hope that you never know I've got nothing to show for myself and it shows I've just and ordinary loser I ain't nothin' but a User So treat me like an abuser 'Cause I'm hurting myself And it goes I don't know why These Demons invade my life But I'll never deny They made me who I am inside And they're here to stay I can wish them away But they'll always return No matter what I say You can tear me down and use me Villainize me and accuse me 'Cause you never really knew me For the Monster I Am Burn me at the stake Watch my bleeding heart break Call me by my name We will never be the same Tell me again The way that my story ends How we'll never make amends And I'll do It again Because I'm always a mess I'll never shake these regrets If this is some kind of test I need to find a way out I admit that I have made mistakes that Haunt me to this day But nothing I could change would take the Monster I Am Away Burn me at the stake Watch my bleeding heart break Call me by my name We will never be the same I don't wanna spend another day In this dark place that I have made You can tell me don't be afraid I'm here to tell you I'll be okay

about

Plastic Trees is Social Eclipses self released debut album. Entirely self-produced, Plastic Trees was created in Toschs bedroom of his house in Austin TX.

Plastic Trees is an abstract concept album. It differs from the traditional concept album in that there are no specific characters or locations, but the album as a whole revolves around a few specific ideas and themes. The lyrics are very metaphorical and not meant to be taken at face value. The story itself is again very abstract and metaphorical, and open to interpretation.

...

I worked very hard on this album and I'm very proud of how it turned out. It's loud, abrasive, imperfect, yet meticulously crafted and at times hard to listen to, but it's all by design. Every song has it's place and tells a different part of the story. What exactly that story is, is up to you. I am Social Eclipse. This is Plastic Trees. Enjoy.
