The Evergreen
07:00
|
|||
Deep in subconscious dream nests one lonely being
Atop the evergreen
Smoke lays beneath the needles of time
Green with envy and dipped in blood
The wren's nest has something of mine
Guarding this love shrouded by hate
This fantasy is poison that my mind creates
A dream within a dream that lies beneath the seams
A dream within a dream that I wish could be
Lost what was mine and I will never find
That place in the wren's wings
Lost in my mind and the evergreen
Searching for where the songbird sings
An evil look in the wren's eye
Knowingly taunting what I can't take back
Hidden deep within their bloodied nest
The fear rises in my eyes when I try to fight for what is mine
Buried in my chest
I don't deserve this bloodied mess
Guarding this love shrouded by hate
This fantasy is poison that my mind creates
A dream within a dream that lies beneath the seams
A dream within a dream that I wish could be
Fighting for my heart and the evergreen limbs
Searching for the light that's supposed to end
A feather falls from above
Never will they love again
The wren's morning song turns into laughter
A mocking gesture
Prophesized demise by the deities
I begin my climb atop that fated evergreen
I reach into the nest
I reach into the wren's chest
I take back what I should have never let go
I take back my heart for my own
I fall from the evergreen
I fall from reality
I grasp for your love once more
I grasp for the wren's wings but they are no longer there
Where did you go when I need you the most
Where did I go when something so good turned sour
I'll always be here
I'll miss you more than you probably know
You'll maybe be there
Like you said you always would
I hope that things change for the good
I hope that you still care like you said you would
I hope that things change for the good
I hope that this isn't goodbye

Killing Frogs
02:52
|
|||
We're alone in the van
Out in outer space
When the cigs in the can
Leave us with blurry faces
Killing Frogs in the rain
Tears regret from the pain
Run away from your place
The last look on your face
I'll hold to my chest
The last memory
I'll have of this mess
Rain beat in the wind
Fall far from the sky
Like a bird's broken wing
Just waiting to die
Never Notice the Lie
I might just try
Fly away you sing
The last word from your mouth
The last kiss on my neck
The last cup of doubt
I'll sip from this mess
I wish that you never lived
Within my mind
I wish that you never lied
I wish that you could've cared
And loved my name
I wish that you were the same
I wish that you could leave
This empty space
I wish that we weren't alone
I wish that I could leave
This empty skin
Or fill in my hollow bone

Little Fox
03:54
|
|||
Tufts of hair and a broken leg
Oh how they've hurt you little fox
Tears in your eyes a week scream in your lung
I'll bandage your soul my little fox
Remember the songs I sang for you
Remember the love that I spilled for you
I'll take you under my wing give you what you need
Love with all I can do if I could for you
Mother bird is here but she'll soon have to leave
You're strong Little fox
You'll be okay I believe
Remember the songs that I sang for you
Remember the love that I give to you
Remember the embrace that we shared each night
Remember the healing that kept us tight
Oh my little fox what have I done?

The Grave Digger
06:51
|
|||
He wanders this ghostly yard
In the fog of distance
Spirits of past stare
As he searches for where you are
A single grave grave dug six feet wide
And twelve feet deep
Twice the size
But meant for one to sleep
His shovel strikes deep into the heart of the ground
Cutting each artery and tearing each vein
The cruelty in his purpose to keep him safe
The grave digger digs his final grave
Staring wildly at this hole
The clouds start to mourn his loss
As he steps into the open wound
He dug their grave where he now lies
His shovel lay next to his corpse
In a grave meant for two souls
The murder of a complex love
The grave dug to hold a lonely dove
Why
He cries to the sky
Must he die for the sake of love
As tears fall from the sky
He is left to die
You dug our grave
Now lie
The last words he heard

Rot With Me
04:09
|
|||
I've lost my heart to the cosmos
Cruel and endless
I've lost touch of all within my soul
Nothing left of me
But a memory of reverie
Dreams of nothingness
drifting into vastness
Droning drums from the cosmos
My heart hypnotized
My life lessened
Limited expression of the universe
Small and insignificant
Seeking the one true power
In other beings of light and dark
The one is here
The one is here
Awesome powerful
Enormous graceful
beautiful grotesque creature from beyond
Capture my mind and soul
Enrapture my every cell
Show me what is love
True love
Loyal love
Macabre and sacrificial
Obsessive
Insane
Atrocious
Love
Take mine heart upon thee
Do unto it which you do best
Devour the treacherous emotion
Leave nothing to spare
Leave nothing to spare

Cruel Loyalty
03:56
|
|||
I crave the tase
Your vomit stained mouth
The betrayal, the shit, the fucking lies
You gave false love
Trapped in your eyes
The cruelty, the ignorance, I fucking despise you
You pinned me down and pecked out my eyed
Gathered my guts and made yourself a nest
With my entrails that I wore on my sleeve
You made it impossible for me to leave
You're a volatile creature with no love in your heart
That's found a perch in my heart
Used in every way thinkable
You make it hard for me not to hate you
the promise you broke
Yet I'm lying still
So you can find your ease in the night
I lie alone
I don't understand
Why am I broke in this broken land
The words left spoken
The knife in my hand
The cross left unturned
The scum heart of man
You played an empty soul
Filled it with hate
Left me to rot
What a cruel fate
Cruel loyalty to an unloving man
I draw my last breath upon this land
Full of smoke and empty thoughts
This empty love is my last rock
I cast my last stone
To my one love
I love alone
Blood spills on the floor and you drink from the mess
My heart left vulnerable in the center of my chest
Disembodied and disemboweled
Organs surround as a wretched home
For a demon such as you
As you tear deep at my veins
My life slowly fades and when my last breath is drawn
I can hear you say don't go
You deserved everything
Now you deserve nothing
And somehow I still want to love you

Our Eidolon
02:07
|
|||
Our phantom soul combines
At the precipice of our deathly climb
Into the depths of the abyss
Into certain uncertainty
We are entropy
We are infinity
We are brevity
We are the death and life of our love
Hollow shells left behind
Our corporeal selves left to die
As the ghost of us roam these halls
Forever trapped in our past withdrawals
Lie to me
My deity
Die with me
Lie to me my deity
Die with me my loyalty
Take my breath don't let me breathe
Fill my lungs with the endless sea
Chained to ourselves in and upward spiral
Within a dying love that's fucking shallow
Swallow the tidal uproar
Our connection lies above the shore
Leave me with your eidolon but please don't leave
Leave me in the night but please don't leave
Leave me and your shell but please don't leave
Our souls enchained
Just please don't leave

Surfacing
02:57
|
|||
Writhing beneath my skin
There's no room to breathe
I am still alive in this strange carcass
Paralyzed in a different realm
Staring through a stranger's eyes
Staring into my own
Wearing a stranger's face
I can feel each brittle bone
I tear through the stitching and rip through the skin
I see through the thin layers of reality
Conscious of my subconscious
Conscious of my own skin
I feel trapped beneath the physicality
Breathing gets harder as I struggle through the strain
My limb goes numb as I get lost in the pain
Separate from my physical self
Surfacing from this mental hell
I scream to be hear but no one tries to help
I reach out to the dark but my flesh gloves are stopped
A coffin wall
Six layers of flesh
My flesh suit tightens as reality sets in
Suffocating
My breathing is stiffened
Blinded
my sight has lessened
Numbing my feelings
Life has lost all meaning
No choice not to make
My life now to take

Cut Off Short
05:57
|
|||
Where the red meets the grey
Where the blood meets the dirt
Where my soul meets its grave
Where your heart feels hurt
Where poetry meets music
Where dreams meet fate
Somethings get cut off short
But in between is you
