Burn

I have come to find that you are the worst thing to ever grace my mind.
I must support myself,
support myself.
Cradle me in as you spin your web.
Feed me your venom. (x2)
Feed me. (x2)
But I'd rather feel the pain than try to believe that it's not there.
'Cause the ache in my chest is the only thing that makes me feel alive.
But I'd rather feel the pain than try to believe that it's not there.
'Cause the ache in my chest is the only thing that makes me feel alive.
Makes me feel alive.
But I have to thank you for dragging me through hell.
For now I'm fireproof.
Burn, burn, burn, just like I did.
Lay me to rest.
Burn, burn, burn, just like I did.
Lay me to rest.

Malice

Running from the shield of arms, the only thing that kept you alive.
Kept you alive.
Oh, what's it like to recover?
Trying to find a new means of disguise, while I rot away.
Grind away my skin and bones to ensure my organs have no chance of progression.
Carve out every ounce of decency that's left inside your cold heart.
Your body trembles with every word that escapes your lips.
Oh, whats it like to recover?
Trying to find a new means of disguise, while I rot away.
Stuck between your serpent tongue and the jaws of indecision.
Caught in your undertow.
Nothing can save me, the deeper I go.

Drift
03:12
|

|
Infected by the remains of what you left behind.
Encumbered by your embrace.
Subsisting only in shades of navy.
Your gravity has been pulling me in for so long that I have forgotten what it's like
to float on my own.
I must learn to stand on my own two feet.
And you know I'm made of stone, so carve me as you wish,
And like fingerprints on the glass, I'll fade away in time.
Fade away in time.
Fade away now go.
I've finally broken loose from your jaw, but your tongue will always keep me.
Wave by wave, I'm blessed by your drift.
Some to shallow to subsist in, some too deep for me to breathe.
But I will always keep my head above water.
Though no matter how fast I tread, the water still fills my lungs.
Harbour me, please don't let me fade.
Wave by wave, bless me with your drift.
Harbour me, please don't let me fade.

I've been blinded by the lies behind your serpent tongue.
Now i'm plagued by the pain you poured into my veins.
So sharpen your knife, or just pull out the one that you stabbed in my back and carve our my rib cage.
I want nothing more than to watch your carcass wash up on shore after the world chews you up and spits you the fuck out.
Leech off of me, I refuse to let you bleed my dry.
Progressive as the snake eats its own tail.
Keep my head heavy, teeth in the sand.
I'm through with everything running into walls.
My blood is stained up and down these silent halls.
You have me bound.
No hope for now.
And maybe one day when your knees buckle from the weight of the guilt, me and all your lies will finally have the chance to catch up.
Blinded by the lies behind your serpent tongue.
Now i'm plagued by the pain you poured into my veins.
Leech off of me
I refuse to let you bleed me dry.

Poison

I keep my composure in a sacred place.
But sadly for me, my spine still belongs to you.
I would never do this to you, so how the fuck could you do this to me?
You were more than well aware of my delicate frame, but you still left me shattered.
Next time you decide to chew me up and spit me out,
just make sure you bite down hard enough to kill me.
But I still reside by the shore, in the same shallow body of water that you left me to drown in.
You've forced me to retreat into the earth where I apparently belong.
Just don't be surprised when you discover my body to be nothing but shards in the fucking dirt.
Cause I am nothing but a whithered flower, so rip out my petals one by one
and wish for someone else.
no sun in sight. (x3)
From my head to my feet, your poison runs deep.
And I pray, I pray for the day, that I shed so many tears that they wash out the filth from my eyes so I can see you clearly.
From my head to my feet, your poison runs deep.
For nobody is immune to the sickness you embody.

Travesty

I've grown sick, I've grown sick as hell of hearing you spit your words as I watch you hide.
How does it feel to be all you've wanted to be?
How does it feel to bury your pain?
To be complacent?
Pick me, pick me up off the ground
And tell me, tell me more about the peace you've found.
And even if I had an ounce of faith and reached out and prayed to you, you wouldn't even bother answering.
So come down from the clouds.
Pressure, pressure won't move me.
And even if I had an ounce of faith and reached out and prayed to you, you wouldn't even bother answering.
So come down from the clouds.
I'll release myself and put faith in the branches to break my fall.
And when I hit the ground I'd like to let you know I've finally found a place to rest my head.

Solivagant

Release me into open skies graced by false comfort.
And the disguised strength that I am bound to uphold.
Please don't make me fend for myself.
Drown yourself in my sea of self rejection and apathy.
Blessed with the comfort of seclusion.
Close my eyes and fall in line, I'm still sinking, I'm still drowning.
Her eyes like diamonds, her lips like roses, carry me to solitude.
Who the fuck am I supposed to be?
Burning at the bottom of the sea.
Please, find yourself inside of me as I allow myself to break.
I spend my time avoiding who I've become.
Save me from the confines of my calloused mind.
With nowhere left to hide, allow me to reside as a refugee in your bloodstream.
Provide me with the strength to coincide within the walls of your vibrant being.
As solivagant as I want to be, I still need you to show me the way.
Let me be the air that you breath, and join me if you wish on my beloved path of uncertainty.
Who the fuck am I supposed to be?
Burning at the bottom of the sea.
Please, find yourself inside of me as I allow myself to break.
Use me like a puppet, tie the strings around my neck.
Not familiar with this heavy weight.
Please wait for my mind to calibrate.

Skin

Hello,
I've become so numb that my ribs are no longer bruised from the erratic beating of my heart.
And I've been feeling the need to let you know that my blood has become thin enough for the rain to dilute the poison.
And I've been shedding my skin to escape the notion that you felt to attract me.
But there's only so many layers that I can peel back.
And my limbs have grown limp.
So the usless struggle to fight the quicksand only makes things worse
knowing that I am forever immobile.

Time after time after time ive been told to accept all these things
that I can't change.
But here I stand above your bones, so I guess I'll let you know I took it all for granted.
And when I close my eyes, I swear to God I still see your face.
Take note of the eerie cloud that set itself above us.
No recognition for things of the past.
Bring peace to your pain and may this day be your last.
I'll never know why you're so hollow.
I'll never know what makes you so hollow.
I took it all for granted.
And when I close my eyes, I swear to God I still see your face.
Take note of the eerie cloud that set itself above us.
No recognition for things of the past.
Bring peace to your pain and may this day be your last.
Waiting to live, but waiting to die, like a flower trying to grow
without its roots.
Take note of the eerie cloud that set itself above us.
No recognition for things of the past.
Bring peace to your pain and may this day be your last.

Exile

Don't wake me before you leave.
I'm safer living off what I believe.
So forget my face, forget my name.
Just grant me the strength to do the same.
Cut the fibers that bind my heart and make me feel something.
Then revisit my arterie and tie the frayed ends back together.
You walked right through me as if I had nothing left to say.
I guess I'll see you again someday.
I know pain.
'Cause when you left it's like you're out of my arms and into my head instead.
It's the cold of the night that keeps the fear outside.
Skin like stone, suede on the inside.
Dwelling in the shadows, waiting for you to realign my spine.
Exile me to the bottom of the sea, or wherever you see fit.
Your warm embrace captured my tears before they could escape the duct only to postpone the process.
We move with the grace of the ocean but I have forgotten how to swim.
Please just embrace me.
Let me near or let me go.
Enjoy the harmony of my sporatic beating heart.
Although I'm still halfway grateful for the torture, 'cause when I lost you I found myself.
