1. WASTELAND

Change my attempt good intentions

Crouched over
You were not there
Living in fear
But signs were not really that scarce
Obvious tears
But I will not
Hide you through this
I want you to help
And please see
The bleeding heart perched on my shirt

Die, withdraw
Hide in cold sweat
Quivering lips
Ignore remorse
Naming a kid, living wasteland
This time you've tried
All that you can turning you red

Change my attempt good intentions
Should I, could I
Here we are with your obsession
Should I, could I

Crowned hopeless
The article read living wasteland
This time you've tried
All that you can turning you red
but I will not
Hide you through this
I want you to help

Change my attempt good intentions
Should I, could I

Here we are with your obsession
Should I, could I

Heave the silver hollow sliver
Piercing through another victim
Turn and tremble be judgmental
Ignorant to all the symbols
Blind the face with beauty paste
Eventually you'll one day know

Change my attempt good intentions
Limbs tied, skin tight
Self inflicted his perdition

Should I, could I
Change my attempt good intentions
Should I, could I


2. THROUGH THE IRIS

Cherish,
Two circular hues of blue with a gray shade,
So captivating,
More than you know.

False perceptions,
That brought forth these questions of,
Truth, love and hope.

Now that you're injuring,
I carry you with me just,
Please hold on.

Disappear and dissolve,
A weakening wall,
Will one day fall.

It's wise to sever our loss,
A redefined pulse,
Through your iris.

Love's not all lost,
But it's nailed to my cross,
And crucified all that I've held on

To be awaiting,
Anticipating a touch such as yours.

False affection,
A spawn of neglection,
Of love, lust, hoax.

Please understand me,
That now where you're standing,
Is closer then I'd hoped.

Disappear and dissolve,
A weakening wall,
Will one day fall.

It's wise to sever our loss,
A redefined pulse,
Through your iris.

Your iris...

Your iris...

Disappear and dissolve,
A weakening wall,
Will one day fall.

It's wise to sever our loss,
A redefined pulse,
Disappear and dissolve,
A weakening wall,
Will one day fall,

It's wise to sever our loss,
A redefined pulse
A new iris.


3. SEVEN

Lapse in life I cannot lie
Compels me to wonder why
Valid try is so far from divine

See you running (See you running)
The only way to fall is down

Strive to beat what eats within
Go ahead and drown the kid
Who thought could reach the rim
All the dreams once spoon fed
Hold you up to the sky
Leave you there just one more time
Valid try so far from divine

See you running (See you running)
The only way you known how
See you running (See you running)
The only way you known how

Back and forth I cannot take this
Forced euphoric fabrication
Held in place the heart is weightless
Breaking down I need a face lift

Don't stare at the wall (x4)

See you running (See you running)
The only way you known how
See you running (See you running)
The only way you known how

The Only Way to fall is Down


4. R.E.S.T.

Read the writing on the wall
Scar across the lips that talk
Boldly shrouding all I thought
Slowly building a flaw
Fair warning Between the lines
Discover I
Thought you knew was their excuse
Technique swallowing puke

Rape (x4)

Sliding down my back a blade
Spread her open to betray
Lying in the bed you've made
All is fair when love is hate

Skin the past what's done is done
Bloody taste I bite my tongue
Tears are old and gray at best
Long for rest
Attempt to refrain slow burn
Stitch shut minds eye
Wish to be oblivious
Time will gracefully numb

Rape (x4)

Sliding down my back a blade
Spread her open to betray
Lying in the bed you've made
All is fair when love is hate

Rest from this might teach a lesson
Picking scabs can cause infection
Rest from this might teach a lesson
Picking scabs can cause infection
Rest from this might teach a lesson
Picking scabs can cause infection

Rest
From
This

Rape (x4)

Sliding down my back a blade
Spread her open to betray
Lying in the bed you've made
All is fair when love is hate

Sliding down my
Sliding down my
Sliding down my
(Rape)
Sliding down my
Sliding down my
Sliding down my
(Rape)


5. BLANK SHELL

Inside this is all that helps
Only to feel your existence
(stop)
Deny the truth that my life has changed
Hoping that this is all just a dream
Living inside of just what could not be
No way to read your obituary
Enslaved to a silence so frequently rang
Buried the place that reminds me you lay

This isn't what you really are
Blindfolded through the hurt
So sorry
So sorry

Memories my mind still replays
Comforting thoughts 'til I awake
The presence of you is haunting through shapes
Reflecting your image off on my face
Whispered desire to know you're at peace
Blank in the eyes you're vacant to me
So with the spirit entirely strong
Entirely strong it's time to move on

This isn't what you really are
Blindfolded through the hurt
So sorry
So sorry
(For this all)

Empty still frames
Turning the page

Let go
Let go your hope

This isn't what you really are
Blind folded through the hurt
So sorry
So sorry
(For this all)

Let go
Let go your hope
Let go
Let go your hope
Let go
Let go your hope
Let go
Let go your hope


6. AT A LOSS

Here we are in red
Suffocating in this tie
Down with you with me
Unable to breathe force fed
Blind to this so long
Thread in mouth all senses gone
Leaves my back my chest
Six feet down it's buried dead

Turn to your back and walk away (x4)

(Cut out the face)
(Do as I say)
Twisting and turning why isn't this working
(Cut out the face) For what cause
(Do as I say) At what cost
Twisting and turning why isn't this working

Beg plead and scream
Show me what you will
Watch straight faced
Not another cheek
Eyes swollen
A shape I'd like to kill
Here you are in red
Stunned as you may feel

Turn to your back and walk away (x4)

(Cut out the face)
(Do as I say)
Twisting and turning why isn't this working
(Cut out the face) For what cause
(Do as I say) At what cost
Twisting and turning why isn't this working
(Cut out the face) For what cause
(Do as I say) At what cost
Twisting and turning why isn't this working
(Cut out the face) For what cause
(Do as I say) At what cost
Twisting and turning why isn't this working
I'm lifting a burden, pointless diversion

Just try


7. SILHOUETTE OF A LIFE

Forced myself to sleep last night
Woke up to all white
Saw all the tears and cries
Screamed out but reply
Nirvana dreams were never right
Crossing to the other side
It's too late to take this back
Accidental excess

Now what's in store for a
Soul with premature
Wings that will never soar
For what they're made for

Why we wingless angels fall
We'll die if our wings don't grow at all
So tell me why we wingless angels fall
We'll die if our wings don't grow at all

Life is always strange
Signs like wandering
Mental sodomy
This can't be happening

So tell me why we wingless angels fall
We'll die if our wings don't grow at all
So tell me why we wingless angels fall
We'll die if our wings don't grow at all


8. ALL WHITE

Cold cells slightly shaded
In this box I'm laying
Statues surround with frozen faces
Trying to sustain amazement
Listening to the one who's praying
Words of wisdom hope of consoling
Configured rows of saddened displacement
Where they all wept

(Falling away) Falling away
I feel me changing
(Expressions so vague) Expressions so vague
Why aren't you screaming

Wide eyed water glaze drip
Loss of explanations
Broken smiles display carnations
Longest isle to confrontation
Watched by all the professional strangers
Stained glass window panes of Jesus
Reflect the dim lit ceremony for the lonely

(Falling away) Falling away
I feel me changing
(Expressions so vague) Expressions so vague
Why aren't you screaming

Saw you standing there
My presence near
Saw you standing there
Your presence near

(Gasping for breath only to see)
Gasping for breath only to see

(Falling away) Falling away
I feel me changing
(Expressions so vague) Expressions so vague
Why aren't you screaming


9. MAGNA PHI

Fragile engulf
Come on turn on
Penetrate without touch
Lay waste the virgin you were

Come on it barely shows
I'll grow to face your God
Consumed you'll hardly know
Atrophy of souls

Fragile engulf
Come on turn on
Strap in and pose for the pawn that you are
Thrusting in deeper you'll beat me
Feed on the products of filth like a fiend
Worship and praise to the screen

Come on it barely shows
I'll grow to face your God
Consumed you'll hardly know
Atrophy

Come dance with me
The shadows
In the moonlight
Are calling

Strap in and pose for the pawn that you are
Thrusting in deeper you'll beat me
Feed on the products of filth like a fiend
Penetrate without touch

Come on it barely shows
I'll grow to face your God
Consumed you'll hardly know
Atrophy

Self Indulgent
Your leisure
Self Indulgent
Your leisure

Force feed
Force feed
Force feed us


10. FRAILTY

Discomposed as a whole
A kindred gift
Barely possessed
Struggles with lack of control
Meet our mistakes put on display
Stone me like a martyr
Making it much harder
Time just might beat out my will to overcome

Envious
A simple touch
All of this longing
Hollowed out longings of chimera

Bend and fold
Reform the shape
Force into place
Can't uphold
Devouring the author, weakening their order

Envious
A simple touch
All of this longing
Hollowed out longings of chimera

Envious a simple touch
Hold tight

Why is this even questioned at all
Why is this even questioned at all

Turning around
Crawling with vengeance
Tempts me
Tearing around
Tearing it out
Fraility
Tearing around tearing it out
Frailty
