Cemetary

I captured slow life and know it well
like the back of my broken hands
we accept our solace cloaked
as friendship gripped by time
and modern man,
A liar holds a fractured posture
that says it best when nothing at all
graced in patience and blessed with fear,
scratching at my door
I can feel there's movement
after fading grey and silence pass
like a shadow losing contrast
as the night crawls over last
but life is surrounded by flowers in bloom,
slowly dying,
age is cursed and I'm trapped in a dark oak casket
driven by a hearse
My eyes are filled with the years of regret,
I can't take back.

No Love
03:52

The morning rise,earths suspended state as it turns on it's side.
I can see the comet fade and the fear in me subsides.
I often wonder, as the abyss above me, seems deeper at night.
Is there another me somewhere staring back up to my eyes.
Am I less of a man if I broke down and said I couldn't be on my own.
Or is sincerity lost and being alone is a friend I've come to know.
We stepped along the moonlit bridge way glorifying a nostalgic past.
So for every dwell, that's draped in black, if this is love, I'm taking it back.
I try to survive the rapture waking up alone in the dark.
Even if I try to keep it together, I'm still falling apart.
I'm falling apart.
I was searching for closure, shut the final door and turn to face the cold.
If it gets any deeper I'll be digging a shallow grave.
Waking up, has never been the same.
I'm still afraid of change, I'm clinging on to the past
but every goodbye you whispered was supposed to be your last.
I've become the wrath, consumed inside of my head.
This deciduous mind I'm forgetting I've come undone.
We're all waiting to die scared to death of dying alone.

Sometimes I wonder to the back of my skull
where there's fields of fire
and every shadow's still chasing me home
I whisper softly to myself to just forget these dreams
I'm laying dormant barely breathing
under endless sleep the faint reflections of myself
I'm calmly staring back into the void of clouds dressed in black
mind locked from the inside,
my vacant soul open the night and swallow me whole
cause in the waking hour
distance rules everything around me
at the edge of existence beyond secluded streets
holding face value over my empty grace
I'm still reaching out,
holding on to my own
I pull my collar up and stroll into the dark
sanity doesn't seem so far from here
solitude is so lonely in this crowded room
cold shoulders at night will make you winters own
I'm afraid I can't turn back time
and scared to show the wounds I hide
emptiness depriving dream
cause distance rules everything around me endlessly.

Disdain
03:42
|

Knee deep in static and smoke as I walk the road,
it's so dangerous and yet I did it again.
You felt the price of pain,
like there was no shame if this is the answer,
I'll do it alone.
It seemed forever since we shared this air
I couldn't breathe it on my own.
The certainty of death is true, I understand.
I try to contain myself, holding back without bleeding through.
I could see your rain for miles, but still I don't see you.
Only a broken body with a saddened face, those sun faded, greyed out eyes.
Sheltered from the cold, in whispers of remorse, do you still lie awake at night?.
I know I said, this might sound crazy, the sun is gone, it's never coming back.
Death awaits no man, endure this pain.
Death awaits no man, You'll never see this face again.
Down in the coldest winter, I'm still standing alone,
and I could tell by the city street lights, death awaits us in the shadows, untold.

Providence

Show me a reason to feel this invincible,
the heavy rain could feel less incredible.
When I'm soaked to the bone, and still, I'm so alone.
For all these dreams that take a hold of my life,
hold my head, submerge the night.
Communicate, without the use of speech,
I'm seeing visions, I haven't slept in weeks.
I'm finding stars, I thought were city lights
I'm searching sunsets, accepting lonely nights,
To find my own so long ago.
If this was timeless, if only I could change time,
beneath the world, you hang my eyes to the sky.
Be still my darling, they're only coming for me
the echoed silence, is still beckoning.
It's still beckoning.
That weightless notion that carries my soul,
the open sky can only lead me home.
I stay awake to feel alive sometimes,
but close my eyes, to say I've seen the light
and if only, I could be that someone,
you used to know I used to know.

Coming of Age
04:27
|

I cradle my father as he falls to his knees,
he felt that burden of upset that always hangs over me.
Even I know forever's so long when life won't wait.
Subdued to the years for all our last of what's left
he said the judgement of sorrow will make a man of you yet,
so I'll be standing by whilst all along you waste away.
It takes the courage to suffer he said you can't even see,
he saw the man stood before him that he
once used to be, speak your mind, even if your voice starts to shake.
I put my ears to the ground and listen out for the rain,
I can hear the thunder call from memory lane
As it all starts crumble, I still wonder what tomorrow will bring.
So hang your head, and carry the weight of the world,
like the day it was burned, with trustless eyes.
Just hang your head, and carry the weight of the world,
like the day it was burned, with trustless eyes...
And try to forget. I hear there's presence of spirit when trying hard to believe
but how can you put your faith in something you've never seen,
cause when you die you just die,
over everything said, will you lie to yourself or will you know that your...
So hang your head, and carry the weight of the world,
like the day it was burned, with trustless eyes
Just hang your head, and carry the weight of the world,
like the day it was burned, with trustless eyes...
And try to forget. Just try to forget.
I know you're trying to forget (I know you try to forget)
I know you try to forget (Just try to forget)
So close your eyes, embrace the coming of age,
sing me back to sleep and just fucking forget.

Forgiveness
03:02

"I just want to tell you, I'm the one who was supposed to take care of everything. I'm the one who was supposed to make everything okay for everybody. It just didn't work out like that. And I left. I left you. You never did anything wrong. I used to try to forget about you. I used to try to pretend that you didn't exist, but I can't. And now, I'm an old broken down piece of meat... and I'm alone. And I deserve to be all alone. I just don't want you to hate me."

Epilogy

Do you remember the life we had?
It swept beneath my feet and wrapped around my head.
It resembled my frame of mind with nothing better to say.
I was leaving it all behind to resonate through the years and crush me day by day.
I could feel it pull break neck speed to say my last goodbyes.
The discontent to let everything go,
hanging over my head like a noose around my neck.
Cause you're not all that different, over everything.
We're not all that different, after everything. True hell, is life, gone wrong.
So looking back at these dreams, slipping down through my sleep,
I couldn't tell you what the fuck was even happening to me,
I counted rocks on the cliffs as I fell down to the sea,
I could feel it all slipping away.
I float on slick black water paralyzed neck deep as I drowned in sleep,
like Ophelia's last hour, unaware, drifting.

Paradox
04:40
|
|||
This world can't leave me, while this world won't fall.
I'm trapped and unhinged, I still feel the same.
Spoken foundations on a promise that soon I'll change... Oh how I wish I could change.
I lean against the steady breeze pillar wind, fists tight, among a thousand saints
I catch a carrying whisper, of secrets picked up, from what I left behind.
But like the book that weighs you down I'm bound with leather skin.
A broken spine and missing pages, a lost key lock with no way in.
I was naive to presume I could just shake it off, or make it stop
Cause when you think about the things you had there's a pressure of what you lost.
But this world can't leave me. This world won't die.
So this is my end it seems, this is the fall enhanced with weight handwritten in faith,
a paradox beneath a sea of stars, They're taking me back
when nothing fell to this earth, nothing fell to this earth.
There is only a handful of time so I'm kissing regret goodbye. Cemetery.
