"Don't get your hopes up," said the people I trust. More easily said than done. It's been a hard lesson. There's something wrong when one becomes reluctant to fall in love, when one's own blood stands, pointing the gun. My helplessness is a vicious c...

[Verse 1] You’ve arrived And it feels as though you’ve been here for some time You’ve been here all along Now you’re growing tired Try to rest under bright, chilling imminence Trapped where sands pile up behind you Drinking of a grotesque reflection Dy...

Time likes to flirt with me. He knows I'm watching as he passes. He is merciless with my lust. He won't give me the satisfaction of glancing back my way. I can't seem to get enough of the way he tastes. It's like I'm always watching him ... watching him...

When I was ready to begin, you were done Thought you got everything you wanted out of me Does it ever feel like you left something behind? To this day I hope it still weighs on your mind Do I ever haunt any of you like you haunt me? What unfinished busin...

Second chances only create Even more seconds to wait. Everyone starts over, turns a new leaf, But you're weak, and even the weight Proves much too heavy for a pest like yourself, Especially when you're already burdened With a chip on your shoulder T...

Standing over a fault line with a foot planted on either side, with the only world I ever knew balanced on one shoulder, and a heart I'm just getting used to beating on the other sleeve. I stood my ground in a place I knew I might never find peace, and as my f...

To rid the earth of the filth To rid the earth of the lies To will the rise above Tearing my insides out I feel my soul go cold Only the dead are smiling To rid your heart of all lies Their poison tongues, poison hearts Burning cold... Now let the f...

Everyone sees through you How do you sleep at night? Translucent eyelids don’t keep out the light Eyes that bulge apathetically From your engorged (yet empty) head Resting on a pillow bursting with dreams that will never take flight Songs that one...

Passenger side I can see why you gave it all up Searching out through the glass Looking from inside, but hiding from it all You never wanted to be recognized There's something wrong with a dormant tide Are you settling or are you rising high? I'm overc...

When you gaze into your polished metal plates You picture the face of a man who longs to see his soul But claws are claws, whether sharpened or painted or blunted From hours of bounding, one-track-minded, through the snow I have arrived, an exile too infer...

I realized he's a part of me more than I ever told you When he died, I cried more than I ever thought I would I still do now Do I let you go? Do I hold tighter? I don't know It's the same dilemma You're combusting right in front of me Can I stop it f...

Facing the Thousand In the distance, they are circling. I watch them go around and around, never tiring. The one near death is hypnotized and closes its eyes One last time. Patiently they want for that perfect moment to descend And pick to pieces a...

This planet is a single sea and we have crashed into its solitary island. The shores roll like boiling sand against the waves. Rain comes down in constant sheets, and the only source of hope or relief is an oasis that mimics the sun. I must find shelter,...

This frustration is mounting, And my greed is so overbearing. It seems as if I'm never satisfied With the precious things I possess. Could it be that this means nothing? Or am I worshipping false and empty idols? [X2] I've got the Holy Grail, But whe...

I always wanted to tell you I needed you but now I'm glad that I never did, because I never lied about that…at least. It probably would have scared you, anyway. One more excuse for you to run away. And it scares me that you're so easily scared. What fals...

I use the rags of betrayal and the fuel of desperation to light a fire. This temper is lost upon me, though it is sure to find you momentarily. I cannot afford to spend emotions on you, for I owe you nothing. My fury is unbreakable. I feel only the pai...

In a world of such complex pathways we all feel lost. No one could ever understand your directions They used to be crystal clear But they've been smeared by all the fingerprints Of wanderers along your obscured path Our messages all got tangled in their j...

You attempt to find what you're looking for in vacant corpses Never understanding that you have to bury the things you love when they are dead You've cut too deep Let the dead lie asleep Refuse to grasp the hand that breaks the ground from this shallow gra...

To my nemesis, my confidant: Do not expect me to make more requests. I have done penance for my sins. You're in debt to me one thousand promises. Just yesterday, I went again to collect what I'm owed. I found my dreams showered upon undeserving wretches...

I just want to land on flat feet But I'm detaching, floating away Above this scenery, I'm feeling everything anew But I don't want to The way I see your faces, your bodies In our reality, collectively I've come to comprehend it differently And it's sca...
