Hierophant
His old crock sinks into oblivion
No hallowing the body as a temple of his soul
Let well enough alone lining, defining, trying, desiring
But the trait of lacking restraint keeps him away from it all
Infinite sphere with its surpassing center he forswears this reign
Relinquishing his heart and soul in the loneliest loneliness
Pain and joy, thought and sigh will pass again let well enough alone
Lining, defining, trying, desiring, searching, finding, reaping, bounding
Infinite sphere with its surpassing center he forswears this reign
How sweet is the sound of the crumbling of our fellow men
With his eye level at her smallest leaf he forgets the view of its plain obtaining balance
Considered life sinking deeper instead of swimming along
No Rest For The Weary
My marrow like layers of brume veil-like mist creeping up the meadow
Crescent shadows flood the sky while the world below waits in fright
Clouds are ready to pour down on me all the twangling sounds of fear swallow the surface
Spectre shadow frozen in time and space glare of neither night nor day will it ever turn to light
Spectre storm whirling in time and space glare of neither night nor day
In the eye of rashness the violence fades away
As I scour open space a deadly calm inside
I'll never know what it means I'll never know what it means
This deadly calm inside I'll never know what it means
The Abyss Looks Into Me
We've searched the world for truth as we cull the pure, the heart, the good
The road twists and turns vaults howl, mountains burn as we cull the pure, the heart, the good
Eyes burning like fire eyes burning like the sun
We've searched the world for truth as we cull the pure, the heart, the good
Glancing over distant space grey dawn, soul crusade
The phoenix hope winds her way through desert skies
Still defying fortune's spite reviving from ashes and rise
The phoenix hope wings her way through desert skies
Eyes burning like fire eyes burning like the sun
When it's time it flies faster than our minds
When it's pure, it's harder to endure
When it's good, we're more careful than we should
Trails of memories haunt her
When it's time it flies faster than our minds
When it's pure it's harder to endure
When it's good we're more careful than we should
Trails of memories chase her
Glancing over distant space grey dawn, soul crusade
The phoenix hope winds her way through desert skies
Still defying fortune's spite reviving from ashes and rise
The phoenix hope wings her way through desert skies
Facing the sun life ignites fiery dawn soul search
The phoenix hope burns away to eternity
Still defying fortune's spite reviving from ashes and rise
The phoenix hope renews itself from its remains
Second Son Of R.
Raised in between doll-shaped smoke
Insects in every corner of our rotten house
I hid in the walls of my room
Tasting clean air through a window crack
In these childhood dreams where imagination was key
I drove the needle through my skin
Weaving a delicate net to embrace me
And hold me to sleep where no one could see
Where no one could hear me breathe
Your empty house won't comfort me
Don't make me pity you in the end
I won't forget the years when disappointment was key
Blood runs thick in the veins of guilt
Drowning your promises made never embrace me
And hold me to sleep where no one could see
Where no one could hear me breathe
Your shallow heart doesn't soothe me
Your false love won't break me
Don't make me pity you in the end
This drunken body I've left behind
And the problems that are no longer mine
I resided under your broken feathers
For too long scraps of pictures in a box
Is what remains of those childhood dreams
You'll never know the person I've become
Being Able To Feel Nothing
My blood, my flesh, my veins play with me my bones, my beast play with me
There's a starving beast inside my chest playing with me until he's bored
Then slowly burying his tusks in my flesh crawling his way out, he rips open old wounds
When I reach for the knife placed on the bedside table
Its blade reflects my determined face to plant it in my chest
And carve a hole so deep it snaps my veins
Hollow me out, I want to feel empty
Where I could see my master's thorns
I'd start peeling the skin off his cheeks and scratch his eyes until he could no longer see
The blood dripping on the white sheets of my bed the stains I will never manage to remove
I'd start peeling the skin off his cheeks and scratch his eyes until he could no longer see
The blood dripping on the white sheets of my bed the stains I will never manage to remove
Dripping all over the floor, I would drag myself outside
As I open the front door the sun captures my weary face
The weight comes off, when I let go it's so strange, being able to feel nothing
Stay Here / Accroche-Moi
Roam the gloaming of the highway
I'll follow your hesitant steps
Observing the hastening world beside us
I lean forward to slow you down
Nobody watches us from their glass boxes
The days are moving fast ahead
Shifting in between day and night
As the roads curl before them, we're alone
Hand out your troubles, give me your pain
I'll plant them next to the thorns in my veins
Tie your limbs to my crippled life
Hang on, I'll carry you around
Storms lay down and come to rest
Confusion returns to how it's always been
I let you replace the taste of my pain
With the comforting of your frail skin
Hand out your troubles, give me your pain
I'll plant them next to the thorns in my veins
Tie your limbs to my crippled life
Hang on, I'll carry you around
