I've come an end I've reached my decision I am made out of shapes I am not an incision You call this your own I am built from treason You've broke through the walls And the children listen All the ghosts in the hall, I've cast them aside From your blood to your bone All the ships in the sea, I've called in a storm To drag you to me Now it's time to admit That the seasons are changing And the reason is clear This is a mess that we're making Can't remember the last Time I truly remembered What it was that I had Not engrained in forever

Silence slows the room When no one speaks Far far from the light Emotions linger Patiently Upon the empty night On a shore, on a whim Grasping at the cold Lying there, whispering Words that fell unheard Mouth moves, wandering Like thoughts done up in red Bows his head as stillness takes All the words he left unsaid Remnants of dreams scattered in the waves On a tide that's only seen in greys Reaching out, hopelessly, just to find a one Coming short, aimlessly, falling from the sun Am I the last alive? Am I the last alone? Am I the first to die or the first to know? Is this the distance I must go To reach out and crease the fold? All we are: the dust of stars All we are: the dust of stars Bone to bone Days to weeks La-la lovely sight Elegance, So naturally Composed of green and whites On the edge, in a dream Breaking up the ice Peering out, stitch the seam While pulling to the right Eyes swell, lovingly As if there's been a change On his knees, faithlessly But nothing looks the same All the pieces are torn, and set a blaze Tints of blues are seen in the flames Reaching out, hopelessly, just to find a one Coming short, aimlessly, falling from the sun Reaching out, hopelessly, just to find a one Coming short, aimlessly, falling from the sun

Pamona 03:33
I walk the ancient path My compass points me home The sun rises to the west And the air grows cold All the animals whisper They whisper my name All the trees sigh heavy And dance in the rain No I will not, I will not glance back To see my prints vanish into the black And my fear swells as my thoughts believe What I first sought is now hunting me No I will not, I will not give in Become a regret, damned to the life that I live And my heart pounds, steady as she goes Daring and doubting as I dealt the last blows

Hune 04:08
And if I walked alone Would you notice? Would you be strong? Could you be the deep blue sea Brewing something? And in the dead of night My thoughts will wander Fight or flight? I am not what's inside It was all set on fire I get so lost when I descend I get so lost without my friends I get so lost, let's amend I get so lost, they're all dead And if I cease to be Could you recall everything? Can I be a memory hiding somewhere? And at the right time, Your mind will stray, rot, decay But I'm right inside Adding fuel to the fire

Dark times, young blood awaits tonight And if you're the last alive, would you please turn out the light? All smiles, eager to come aboard Hold tight, brace yourself for the fall Wake up, we're here to settle the score And if you've crossed the line then your back's against the wall Slow down, this bird was meant to fly No sound, we cut quick through the sky Sometimes we need a little more from life When straight lines are beginning to intertwine Silent, we move across the brink Violent, the children flail as we sink

Pinned 04:20
All along the fields of fire I watched you with a smile You grinned, content Laughing as I spat desire And we sat through the stranded years Motionless, meaningless Repented thoughts caught in a sieve These were days that you had lived We fell from heights, from wings of wax To land so hard to break out backs And now that smile, it has no teeth No matter, it feels good at least I waved "hello" from a horse's back On the mountain tops, your wings did flap Your talons clenched as your fever writhed And I never saw the monster inside I never meant to clip those things Stuff the mattress and mend the springs They looked so pretty within your cage But I got so scared when you escaped Shut the door, look within Your broken mouth, that wicked grin I'll keep you safe 'til the day that we die And I never saw the monster inside

Metronomes and bottle caps Sort through a love that cannot last World is open, space is vast Sort through a love that cannot last Peering through the window's glass Sort through a love that cannot last Colors melt as you move fast Sort through a life that has no past When you are not alone The emptiness is just a ghost Longing for a sacred home When you are not alone So this is what it's like with company Hiding in the lines you've cut for me Distant, bitter feelings from the past Sort through a love that cannot last So someday, maybe, take a chance on me

Nostalgia peeked around the bend and cut the throat of all it saw Narrow passages complete the path we wandered from Nostalgia peered around the bend and slit its wrists at what it saw Narrow passages complete the path we started from Sometimes I try Sometimes I lie too much Sometimes I lie Sometimes I try too hard My fiction comes full circle Collusion and connection Distant, bitter feelings for the past Fondly remembered Kindly dismembered Try and make this illusion last

Saudade 04:15
Cancel all your plans Leave a note beside the phone Disregard the flashing light No one was ever home You always know best I don't have to think anymore Better than all the rest So what's the final score? Subtle shifts of images permeate the waves Never mind the photographs, this is your escape Echoes of your footsteps linger down the hall Omens turn to memories that you won't recall Shadows of a different name Haunt a space that remains And though memories may change I know we stayed the same My regrets may turn to shame I know my moment fades
