I (Ache) 02:47
Aching for your rusted eyes And your soft pierced lung taking back just one word  While swallowing the concrete. I've spent a fortune on  The liquid fallen from your eyes So build up this tower high  And let it reach the moon
2.
II (Alone) 04:29
Paint me black, Blacker than the  Ocean's deeps Absent like a  Heart in a fiend's chest. Watch your dreams  Change into a new enemy, Cower at the likeness  Between you and me. Two gold plates Wedged between my brain, And if you say I'm proud  Then let vanity consume me.  Two silver rings Wrapped around my neck And if you say I'm loathed  Then let your hate consume you. I'll stand behind you in the Shadow of greatness you have  Shaped and formed from all of the  Desires to vanquish the light, And bottomlessness of night And the heavy handed drinks  And the hopeless empty thoughts In the art of being alone. 
3.
Bury Me 05:49
Describing nothing with endless words Arbitrary things made to seem like truth. Walking into the wind  and away from you, I chose this aberrant path What do you deem substantial?  am I enough to hold on to?  Bury me in the basement, beneath the things that we had left  to destroy themselves over all the time that we were gone. Forgetting what it’s like to have a clear head Lost in the murk, wading through time Let it carry you Into the deeps I’m no longer hoping for honesty.  What do you deem adequate? Will I be enough to hold on to? Bury me in the basement  beneath the things that we had left  to destroy themselves over all the time that we were gone. gone, gone.

The light falls on her So elegantly, Her last words to me, We're like a banshee's call  Molten emotions Seem to seep from my core I wanted this love to destroy my life. Let's move away From all the noise, Try to mend the bones Of our shared skeleton.  We can't outrun  This realization I wanted this love to destroy my life. You try to spit on my face, I imagine you spitting on my grave. You say I'm just a piece of garbage, So I thought about throwing myself away. Don't look down my horizon

Murmuration 01:21
6.
I hate perfect men now that I feel like an obsolete human. Getting nauseous on a bus  because  a dead animal  reminded me of my mortality.  Sun burnt skin In disguise  from the darkness I keep inside. Even my shadow is ugly  to me. Decisions that haunt my dreams and seep into my empty thoughts  at day save me from the truth  that I want to hide away. Hunting for  crucial lies to form a doorway I can wait behind.
7.
Earth 07:51
We played in the light  turned red from our blood. I had three dreams  that night you left.  I'll drag you down to hell  after I'm done  praying in your temple. I'll search the caves in your photographs  for all of the gems that you've  hidden to save yourself. White smoke cuts the earth and dusk sets in. The cellar is cold so our hands can touch Heat drips from out of your mouth to fight against  the chemicals of logic. Mountains distract me from all of the screaming as time seems to  stand still and  stay quiet.  I was trapped in a dream  of blind and pointless anger. I was caught up in my head to escape the present. Are these creatures alive? hiding in my conscious. Take me back to the time  when I was never wrong.
8.
Illusion 03:02
Everything is a wandering face, vaguely familiar but fading by your daily facade. The last illusion of me. Please hold on to my waning youth, I seem to lose it all the time. everyone will yell goodbye The last illusion you'll see. 
9.
Doused 06:56
I was terrified  of the dark and empty waters. They climb the shore, my sandcastle falls I spent my youth  hiding from you and drowning in a dream, my eyes covered by a shroud. My heart is a doused sun clinging on to life but in time it will die  just as long as  I remain tethered to the fears I have buried inside. Anchored in place at the bottom of the ocean. A gasp, a deadened cry, and the vanishing light.  I feel the monster  Hanging over me And I stand in his shadow  As I write this song.  My heart is a doused sun clinging on to life but in time it will die  just as long as  I remain tethered to the fears I have buried inside. Sinking through life Realizing now The only thing I know is that I am drawn to  bygone things maybe just to find  someone I can be myself with.
