i was just a little wrong, i was just too literal\ i wondered on every day how it all became metaphysical my head is fossilized now my head has decomposed now at last aligned and i digressed from matters wasted, its a weakness dry, subtle eyes, hopeless lies comes quick with an hourglass, time passes, clocks tick, im sick red eyed, i’ll try to be better whatever write a letter when i’m down under the weather dull and crossboned, null in the crossfire this kind of hope wont expire blind recherché in harmony center of humdrumity free from the memory, juxtapositive and then we’ll see sharp brained blood stain, cut up duration let down with high expectations its known by little and bought by one but someone else could and they have done whereuntil do we owe the sun where without heart we love the unknown its beginning to be a fixation id hate to be blinded by my own lesser half i got the right mind the right time but i find it difficult to be

Blank 02:28
lyrics

it’s never a versitile thing it’s seems when april comes and goes in spring, again and somehow summer seems to suck the life from me down there with forgotten dreams and blank slates when is a blank slate a restart? so startled by the idea of redemption art aren’t you spoken to i’m with you blank from the start from the top to the bottom its been said once again there is light, there is dark, there is void where there shouldn’t be space in between our yesterday, what was said on that day, there’s a mess unfolding from the loneliest memories kept under oath, unsure of, myself again, and again it’s like holding my head underwater for a while until my eyes begin to see the sea like nothing else ive ever seen or ever dreamed of being close to me and then my two shaking hands unwrap the warped confusion to look inside the struggle of loving the bus stop is leaving when its time to get up and losing what you shouldnt miss

Borderline 03:40
lyrics
buy track
death of creation, gone with the wind, i’ve been far too certain there’s no way to win a heart on the surface, borderline inside shell forgiven but there’s so much to hide beyond the bed of grieving here no way to change the meaning here im lost in honesty, somewhere near the end, where i’ll send you away or wait another day until the same mistake takes me up and drags me down to where i’ll never see the light this day is one that i will think about all the time. the feeling unlike that of any other kind why the thought is spoken twice, its not a borderline but one way you and i will be spending our time this force left untouched guarded by words how will we resurface if we should drown out the hurt when the end comes without compromise mortal twist to an immortal demise the aconite im thinking of the poisonous, the death of love the unrequited solitude i find, infecting my spine like every other time i go back again, again, til i forget the difference between darkness and the light

Good People 01:45
lyrics
buy track
isnt this world so predictable arent we all under the ground arent we always being recorded who's still you stole my extracurricular we can destroy what we can’t afford to i’m not in the dark, can we just sit in silence oh and now there’s expiration dates that come with advantage we cannot placate exponential surrender isnt this earth so peculiar / arent there like 4 good people / you say well we’re only human / i mean i think humans have some sense of morality somewhere, somewhere   if sympathy is hard to come by at least that i can say that i tried at least i got my priorities straight and yes yes yes, religions fine but do u think that id decline if i was godless, would i steal if i was godless, would i kill i think that id know better i think anyone’d know better i think not doing bad things just because you feel threatened doesnt make you any better

Since Autumn 02:13
lyrics

from which standpoint do you stand now at which point will you tell me how we got so no youre different now at the top of it, from the bottom, no since this autumn at the crossroads you cross my mind and on this roads where i fall behind takes so much just for you to smile what a sad guy, yeah you’ve been a face pincher since last winter its possible that weve cooked under the sun its plausible that you’re the son of a gun maybe its just a phase, a little smudge on our hearts that we can erase, maybe its the timing, or maybe were really out of place real love is so hard to find chances are there's someone better youth is when we fall behind aging just means getting sicker

The Death Toll 03:32
lyrics
buy track
are dreams what we rely on anymore is life another dream, is it all as it seems or is this life just a lie we vouch for where kindness is a clarity and decency’s a charity saving grace got nothin on death when you wake up, why, the why’s making a mess the misery you live for, the gods that you all sing for hard to fraction the harsh reaction, the margin of our own collapse when we're blessed with misery, death, or misery scared of failing of falling, the avalanche set to crawling, we’re all on fours this debt, the mourning, the heartsickness we live for, we live for game, we’re playing so tainted, the poison made to waste away our dreams it’s sad, it’s heartless, it’s what we’ve come to fight for, we’re done for every day this week totally sucked afternoon flyby yeah i messed up little complications come to serve me right when i spend all my time just thinking its fine when in every actuality life’s crazy maybe, leafing through the days i think i’ve just been a little bit lazy bitcrushed human little unhuman little out of touch and a little untrue but this part of me’s a bit hard to see when i’m always acting like i got everything under control, and this much you know that maybe it’s because i’m just tired of the same old the same old the death toll theres a hope our eyes, cuz we do try but we cant tell the way things are gonna be guess im not the only one exploiting the temptation guess you are the only one with faulty allegations for all i know and for all i dont for all i will and for all i wont

Morbid Metanoia 02:45
lyrics
buy track
poison of the mind takes over shines in the light, your god hears the plight but you congregate with the sound converted in time wishing for whats sublime and you keep scraps in your head until its left it for dead night belladonna a knife to your honesty cant turn your back on a bleeding heart what was life like before what will be like soon slight by night time, changing life slowly the only words left are spoken in vain im bringing this back for the year to come, the year i lose faint heart take it all, take it all away the one thing that i have kept dearly the memory preserved way down, way deep supposedly what’s keeping me above dark water metanoia may be morbid for me it's some greedy world who gets by on its own and consanguinity will burn the throne down some maybe believe that they need hospitality from a god

Sound Prediction 01:17

oh when have i been different since i've been this oh how could this be a dream, as you'd wish for me i didn't want to say all that i had to say my love does complicate while your love's just the same how did it turn on you how am i about you how am i now when you've dissected me can't you see since then i have been different, you made it different now that my hearts out there i wish my heart wasnt out there i'll hide my heart instead

Indignant Pigment 03:33
lyrics
buy track
sub-conscious self-consciousness unconscious self-confidence unloved in the thick of this no love, just the thought of this it comes to us and it sticks with us and grows within us til it breaks us and it leaves us with a sentiment we were never meant to let manifest in us i don't need attention i don't want to be distorted again i don't need your attention i just don't want to be distorted again letting go in life giving up on love its easy to find your mind detached from the world the indignant pigment found around the ground i know its imbedded in the soil its down deep in my soul im hooked on bad principles philosophical, a bit methodical and i try to lean away from the way i take away from this habits get a hold of me and i lose half of who i used to be to be, to be free of envy reverse astronomy, backwards physics optimists and lovers turned objective cynics defiled by time, the righter rhyme draped over hearts and blocked-up minds even this we knew would end someday even lies would resolve the destruction at bay

sifting through the flaws, breaking my own laws somehow made it through what i thought a grand pause artifacts below, messin with the flow of normal life, its hard to find a day when i can be alright cant remember a single year where i evaded it all theres some sublevel wishing for flight or a fall can you hear my heart, my heart stutterin cuz its breakin apart this series of woes, like a drug tipped dart might i go by once unscathed, perceptions are so skewed when you livin your life sideways but i cant come up for air its a truth that ive prepared, dont you dare i cannot bear to see the nightshade hangin there aconite, belladonna, paint the sky if you wanna will it die, can it wither, (my own hand pulls the trigger/from my hands start the ticker) red on white, blood on paper, paint chipped doors, holy water i am gone but im hopin i can live through the poison grievances array, torture tba sometimes metaphysical but always in the game my better judgement fails, this deadly curse prevails rest assured, im never sure and my rest is assailed traumatizing, its depth-defying, it blurs reality and kicks the guidelines. hole in your heart, cant wait to start, fear is the devil but hope is a new art can you feel the pain the pain settling in, the bite, wolfs bane sinking in to whats already infesting your brain dear you’ve got the wrong idea, no holding back, what i seem to take from minor things, my own heart is blamed for the sting and im hiding under oath tying up the ropes, dont you know its delirium caused by the deadliest
