Alone, I lie in dread Thoughts racing through my head Each sin shall burn a hole Scarring, a broken soul Curse this reality The harm, she’s done to me Revenge, I shall take Like man, before his break See, through burning eyes Rose tint, to mask the lies Each turn becomes unsure For a mind that’s grown impure I long for sands of past Who’s castles, could not last And in search stars above I’ll burn all that I love This fight, I carry on Lantern, his glow has gone Lost in a winter’s night Who’s day will bring no light I refuse, to stand in place As my hand, drops from her face I refuse, to admit defeat Until empty man becomes complete Judgement, I reprieve Redemption, I believe Blind, this ship I steer I close my eyes to evade the fear See, through burning eyes Rose tint, to mask the lies Each turn becomes unsure For a mind that’s grown impure I long for sands of past Who’s castles, could not last Fire bleeds, from haunting love Torch lights, the black above Anger, I must confront This rage, shall drive the hunt They bite, the hand that feeds You’ll hurt, until she bleeds As I lack happiness The root, I shall obsess Life shall take it’s course For a man with no remorse As my hope drowns at sea I’ll drag you down with me For in death, all are free From earthly blasphemy The moon shall sway the tide Ships crew, all empty eyed The wind, is all but warm In my, relentless storm

Lost I stand without a cause As visions do repete I look for them to pause The burdens of my past Haunt like the fading note Of a song I sang With ending, never wrote I’m unafraid If death appears before Takes my weary soul Lays waste upon it’s shore I’m unafraid If flame takes me whole To pleasure me with pain To feel, what she stole Shield Eyes For then, I shield my heart From emptiness of sky Who’s voyage, I’ll depart Shield Eyes From each atrocity The rise and fall, the serpent’s call Beckoning to me Paralyzed With judgement growing near Petrified In twilight, all was clear From ashes, he was born So ashes, he shall stay This dusk shall be his last No dawn, for a new day As the idol Falls from grace She stands defeated No one to take her place Reflections on the water Shows man I have become With total, of my actions Lesser than their sum Tomorrow, the sun shant rise For tonight I gouge my eyes A victim to my symptoms No dawn for passing skies
3.
For there I stood Gaze at the glowing sky We did the same On fields we used to lie Heartbroken Yet on this sea I roam Close my eyes Man dying to get home Fallen I can’t accept defeat Your eyes Made empty man complete The starlit sky cannot compare A burden, too much to bare Alone, this broken entity Embraces destiny Fallen Tonight I can’t repeat Your white lies Made prophecies complete The starlit sky shall persist Your hollow notes shall desist Tonight, I face my destiny To conquer, open sea

Tailspin 03:41
Despair seethes, through my veins Venom dilutes blood Pray for release, inner peace Yet into mind they flood Easing me with fallacies Entwined with the tailspin Offered me, tranquility Like a serpent in new skin All aboard, set sail to sea On tainted heart’s decree In mirror’s dichotomy Plant the seeds of dishonesty Traitor lives among these walls To tear each board from base Sinking hopes like falling grace She hides with her false face Burning soul, she’s lost control Bringing shame to her name Broken quill has lost it’s thrill Night cannot mask the blame And though, you may succeed To strip me of my crown You cease, due to your greed And Love, I’ll drag you down Despair seethes, through my veins Venom dilutes blood Pray for release, inner peace Yet into mind they flood Easing me with fallacies Entwined with the tailspin Offered me, tranquility Like a serpent in new skin

Altitude 03:06
Apathy for a new kind of sympathy Explosion from the heart of ash Opinion gave us reason to ask the questions Do we know where our morals lie Drag the earth away from me And drop me to the open seas There’s air to feed my lungs in the waters I can’t breathe at this altitude Theres no hope left, and I'm through Oh when we sank the stone The sound it rattled to the bone Killing us, killing everything And as the bodies lay cold One man rose and said hello Over us, over everything And Did you know youre free from harmony Don’t drag the earth away from me And drop me to the open seas There’s air to feed my lungs in the waters But you can’t ever leave the temptation But you can’t ever leave the temptation

Oceans Red 03:28
What have I become This deceit taking hold I stand idly On mounds of tainted gold Decision made They drift towards their fray Silently I beg for them to stay For the silent waves Reflect just what I’ve lost Left you behind Now I’ve realized the cost And here I shall tread Like a heart laced with lead Pay my dues And turn blue oceans red
7.
Restless 04:21
Sleeping restlessly I feel you through me Breathing tones you preach Morals you beseech I cannot deny What is physical I don’t see through eyes that shine like starlight So you made lenses to warp sunshine My bones are stenciled brittle in your graphite I’m your marionette who murders pride Dreams in your name curse my sleep Nightmares playing on repeat Evolving slowly into bliss Until it's you i reminisce Numerical integrity Holds your sun, your stars, your moon to me I absorb the computer screen Data through filters we do not see Hypnotize my dream state Clean my wounds and infected slate Twist my limbs in a puppeteer's play This world you create
8.
Peace This silence, comes at a cost The ones who kept me warm Now let still body frost These screams fade to echos Their words still etched in me Deception hand in hand With Lucidity A shattered mind, without place Isolate, in empty space Good intent, comes undone Destruction, falls unto one Clarity Light comes through ailing eyes The pain I’ve caused to them Could lead to my demise The politics of man Expose thee as a fraud Damned to walk the nether By blind man playing god Try to hold on Try to resist Couldn’t face dawn Couldn’t subsist When I held her hand that night Under their endless light In our stars I found The reasons for all sound But the ticking clock did strike For man and fool alike Though sun and moon we stay They drift so far away Try to hold on Try to resist Couldn’t face dawn Couldn’t subsist Life hold me close I’m gripping at the fray Dangling over abyss As stability decay Life hold me near Ease my growing fear Sing the hymn of yesteryear Words whispered in my ear Yet I’ll take this knife And slash the scars of old Take back the key, my destiny Of love buried, within me Jewels turn to sand As diamonds fall through hand My rose tint has turned to gray And now, I take my stand I’ll sacrifice My dignity for shame Let ego perish in these waves For that can free my name Pink fills the sky As dawn has broke the seal Once was black, blue skies attack Waves bring another crack Let it collapse Let debris descend I will dig, up from this grave Force vicious cycles end Through life, I have slept Like weeping willows wept I could morn forgotten years Instead, I shall accept
