Girl

I know love comes and then it goes
Its here today and gone tomorrow
Something about this though
Feels deeper than us both
It feels like fate, I know thats hollow
But if you could see this girl
As she moves through the world
The way she lights a room
Then you would feel it too
I know, oh no I know
I'll fall back to my old habits, ways and demon days
Worthless me
Now worth something
Worthless me, tell me I am worth something now to you
If you could see this girl
As she moves through the world
The way she lights a room
Then you would feel it too
Its in the way she runs her fingertips along the brickwork of the wall
It fills my soul with wonder, lets me see the beauty in the world
Sometimes I feel so fucking jaded, going through the motions moving blind
But when she runs her hands through my hair, it makes me feel alive
Its her breath on my throat
Its her soft little moans
Its her grip on my neck like she'll never let go
Its her claws in my spine
As her fingers drag lines
Our temples both touch as we lose grip of time
Its the arch of her back
And her shuddering gasps
Its the way she crescendoes before her collapse
When her eyes meet mine
I escape from my mind
My thoughts and my fears washed away by her tide
If you could see this girl
As she moves through the world
Her grace all eyes follow
As radiant she glows
It in the way she runs her fingertips along the brickwork of the wall
It fills my soul with wonder, lets me see the beauty in the world
Sometimes I feel so fucking jaded, going through the motions moving blind
But when she runs her hands through my beard, it makes me feel alive

Divide
04:24
|

I got some things I need to figure out
Give me some time my love
I got dark things I need to think about
Give me some time alone
I've been skirting along this great divide
Between who I am and how I live my life
Afraid to look down, to see inside
My shadow's smothered, anima's quiet
You made it sound so easy
Its never felt so hard
And I think, be who you feel
And do what you love
Be who it is you feel you are
And do what you love
I've been listening for a voice from the other side
To give me guidance from the end of a life
But I've heard no sound, I was so sure I was right
I'll move in silence, there's nothing lost to find
I'll shatter the glass of the visage of my past
But its taking too long and I can never hear a word that you say
When its all said and done and I count what I've won
I will know that the only way to find happiness is to
I had some things I had to figure out
You gave me some time my love
Now all these dark thoughts they keep weighing me down
I think its best if I'm alone
You made it sound so easy
Its never felt so hard

Daydreams
05:30

Wise monk, he's burning on his pyre
But a foolish monk if he's burning for me
It flickers, for a moment I'm inspired
But then I slip right back to daydreams
I don't want to ask another question
I don't want to think another thought
Sick of telling myself it will all get better
Playing hide and seek with my soul
Getting high and seeking something more
Come on I'm rolling
I'm trying hard not to forget
Young drones, with screens stuck to their eyes
Self righteous ones, who one day will lead
They preach change but their actions don't transpire
Cynically I slip back to daydreams
I don't want to ask another question
I don't want to think another thought
Sick of telling myself it will all get better
For us life stuck floating on this rock
Feeling we deserve all what we got
Though hope aint hopeless
We're lying to ourselves again
I'm sighing, soon we will forget
Tell me what did you think would happen
In the end, tell me do you think it mattered
And if you can't find your way, out of this space I don't know why you bothered
To tell me
Old me, with visions in his mind
Holds knowledge of the path that we've endured
I feel the darkness pressing from the sides I start to speak
With no-one near I slip back to my daydreams

Vices

You cut a figure so elegant
Speak sex as clear as the sea
You clasp the hearts of near every man (You meet)
Twirl them through fingers tipped green
You've got a hold onto me
Your wrath quakes rage something terrible
No stone's as dark as your eyes
Provokes lust deep down the devil in me
You get a grip like a vice
You've got a hold onto me
I'll take all your love your hopes and your dreams
And smash them mercilessly to smithereens
Oh I am not who it is you think I am
I'm naught but a tortured tusk of a man
Ravaged by time space truth and belief
Oh don't for one moment hoe think that you know me
Lover you know, all that I am ever gonna be is the one who
Breaks your heart, I told you from the start oh my sweet
Lover you know, all that I am ever gonna be is the one who
Breaks your heart, I'll break your heart
Yeah you know that I will break your heart one day
You beckon me to your grove
Dragging that lake as you melt
(Its been so long since I've felt)
The warm pink primal envelope
I'm afraid I can't contain my cells girl
You gnash claw cry squirm plead writhe beg moan
I plunge immersed in the ra
Once our inner animals join
We collapse back to our shells
Its calling my name again
I cannot resist, to succumb is bliss
Though remorse awaits the end
No matter what I get I'm condemned to craving more
I'll take your love and smash it to make you see
I am not who you think I am
I'm a worthless husk of a man

Phantom
04:38

Foolish, simple, naive me
I thought I could be a lion
But I'm just a sheep
I follow blindly
Wander through my daydreams
Through the shadows of my mind
And tell me I'm not crazy
This is normal, tell me lies
Please, take me away from this space I cannot
Leave, take it away, this lack of feeling in me
I've got something to say but the silence won't let me
Speak and this nameless, faceless phantom follows me
Feelings coil inside me, thoughts of release no escape
But I'm no more than a liar
No more than a thief
And its always been myself I've betrayed
My heavy heart aches for love
But fools gold seemed brighter in my dreams
And I'll chain a soul made of light
Just to feel her flames dying in my cage
Wander through my daydreams
Through the labyrinth of desires
And tell me I'm not crazy
This is normal, tell me lies

Stone
06:49

When you left my world, I existed desperate to shed my skin
After all our work, I was left with something that I couldn't give
To anyone but you
When I sought nouvelle, all I knew revolved around trying to resurrect
A sickly memory, of what its like for someone to spend time with me
A girl as sweet as she
With a fucked up boy like me
I won't love, anyone ever again
Broken once, this heart won't mend
I won't love, anyone ever again
Broke once, beyond repair
How can I trust, you with my heart when nothing feels permanent
I won't love, anyone ever again
A voice inside me said
Delve into the truth of who you are, peel back the mask and see what's beneath
You will find what you've avoided is the very essence of that which you are
When I heard that call, I curled and burrowed back into the cosmic fold
As the moon spun weeks, (I couldn't let it go)
I prised my grip from everything I'd claimed to know
But instead of feeling free, I was still bound to me
My I stayed shut, am I a lock built for death's key?
When I clawed back from below
I'd lost my youth, saw rubble strewn where once lay gold
A saving seraph latched to me
But all that I could think of was what it could be
Is this wisdom, yearning ghost ache
Where colours bleed and drain, leave grey, all vibrance fades
She pleads, "What is it that you seek?"
I lash, "To feed the beast in me that naught will sate"
And I still have countless stones to bleed
But only a lifetime's nights to do it on my own
I leave a grey stone above me
As proof of my existence in this world
Its all I leave, as proof of me
My legacy, amongst the weeds
I won't love anyone ever again
In life I hid, without the strength
To trust someone and give my heart
Create something permanent
And now I won't love anyone ever again
