lose in the dark

we'll face our fears, the ones:
- we did not know we had
- we hid (so clever)
we'll dull our claws on countless walls
can't find the thread once it is severed
jailed child I will lose you in the dark
we are hearts imprisoned in bodies devised to fall apart
I hate my labyrinthine self
can't escape this life these cells provided
monsters spring where nightmares rot from our worst thoughts
we can't deny them
jailed child I will lose you in the dark
our worst thoughts imprisoned in bodies devised to fall apart
hearts/thoughts imprisoned in bodies devised to fall apart

i'm not free without you

desert island in a bad dream
kept by men in power behind their walls
dust collects under moonbeams
isolated in anger enthralled
the sea of surrounding stars can be so cold when you aren't close to my breaking heart
I will provide the hands you've sought to hold
I will destroy who has kept us so far apart yeah
I'm not free without you
disappointment when we wake
condemned children of mothers we seek to forget
I will never be free without you but I can't save you from living through my regrets

inquisitors
03:44
|
|||
|
you start with compliments
act so innocent
you will persuade me that all my arrogance is well deserved so I let down my guard
reveal my intent
my self incrimination part of my punishment
now I confess my life away let's fix it til it's broken
why should you care I told the truth we never should have spoken
'don't worry about it,' you often said to me
I showed things I should not have ever let you see
words seem innocuous before they twist and hurt
I get what I deserve
inquisition

too sad too sad too sad to remember
what you had found appealing about me
forget forget forget + surrender give up
give up my positivity yeah
hopeful -> shattered
fears realized
deep cold water
not surprised
my eyes aren't that color
premeditated in the 1st degree
shattered hope fears realized deep cold water I'm not surprised

love eternal
02:54
|
|||
|
hide these brighter colors see and know why
be there in our mortal earth alive and hopeless
stars seem to lean off their axes no new wonders
we ceded our hopes to the underworld
eternity's a thief stole a dream from me
love was not enough (my vow) to see you unseated from the throne of memory and returned to me sight
unseen

inventions
04:03
|
|||
|
your gifts blessed our wings still I was doomed to burn
drop in the ocean drop out beyond return
pilotfish guide me to my eternal home
celestial prison to watery catacombs
stay alive bleeding swallowed by guilt
your inventions manipulate and kill
stranded inventor father to no one now
null between orbits is what I have been endowed
clear expectations you always knew the risks
deafened by laughing gulls and the wordless ocean's hiss
if you'd let me I'd have let you down

death of an only child
04:11
|
|||
|
no concealed desire stirs my face
it's a captive sky that I was born beneath
my bones are fated for a nameless grave
I'll find it when my sins catch up with me
serve your time tethered to your pain
every breath a link a chain in your chains
yeah you'll find out
I am paying for my arrogance
take my place among the penitents
confiding hopes that we sought
to recognize a future that I never could provide
watch the corpses of days that we've been denied

sunrise
04:39
|
|||
|
sunrise over the shore I'm on the sand
sunrise wrecked my wings before I could land
deepest ocean of surrounding stars
we received our penitential scars
death insatiable and merciless
all our paths our intentions guided us to this
in the sky your fragile wings dissolve
when momentum's lost our bodies fall
replicated feathers start to melt
you'll reveal everything that you would have felt
when you hit the water turns to stone
the deceptive sea collapses bones
water rushes in your shattered lungs
water silences the poems that you could have sung
deepest ocean of surrounding stars
we received our penitential scars
replicated feathers start to melt
ash consumes everything that you would have felt

sun running
03:56
|
|||
|
I thought I kept us safe from predatory fate
see the sun running away from the moon(s) in the sky
he avoids heaven's reflection(s) of his expended light
I'm not who you need
the friend that you deserve can live through their pain and recognize their worth
|
||||
10. |
climb the sky
04:42
|
|||
|
hope's a liar disguising desire grounded in delusions dreams we denied
all around sinners hellbound scars have almost covered the thorns in your side
heaven-sent sinister-bent scared to death that you got passed by because
dreams die they drop out of our lives so take flight climb the sky (climb into the sky)
testament to acts we'd repent
older every instant wasting our time
lies on parade falsehoods replayed forget the last time you experienced surprise
