Mute 02:32
Kept in, as the door slams on the truth...it's written on the face despite the beheading.... No sounds as I lie mute.... So malicious, soaked in the the soul emptied Hey, I got something to say: I forgave but your forgetting as prayers of death engulf me Eyes stare lips sewn shut a cadaver in the corner with eyes open I stare words resound something promised and sure to haunt Eyes stare lips sewn shut A cadaver in the corner that's sure to..... Haunt Haunt Kept in, as the door slams on the truth...it's written on the face despite the beheading.... No sounds as I lie mute.... So malicious, soaked in the the soul emptied Despised Despised Despised Despised Despised

Scream 01:44
Let me see Let me scream Let me see I want to..... Let me see Let me scream Let me see I want to..... Scene. Cut. Scream. Disgust. In me...... Let me scream...... Scene. Cut. Frail. Rot. In front of me..... Let me see..... Let me see.....

Mend 02:41
A thousand words couldn't save you from this fate.... A serpent shedding skin, molting face..... Slither back to the hand that feeds....apathetic as the master proceeds..... (Limb by limb) laying waste it's hard not to stare and gaze.... (Torn limb by limb) marring the skin as the red starts to grey Mending me to see the stars burning, apologies as their eyes are plucked from greed, Mending me to watch the withering days of unfolding of the black parade The taste of bile spills from the lips of a soul thats marked in sin.......the words of those gathered around, another victim to the crimson crowd It's time to see what lies inside......as the bile spills... Its time to see what dies inside......behooving one to cut the tie.....gouging at the memory.... Bleeding apologies dead at the feet.... It's time to see what lies inside......as the bile spills from your eyes...... Mending me to see the stars burning Mending me to see the stars burning

Sift 02:33
So close your eyes, so sick of sight, so close your eyes, sift out the light another night gone by, another life not mine, another farewell drift, another hole that spills teeth crack as I clench, tongue tied as the blood starts to spit....all amidst, all amidst this bliss....... So close your eyes, so sick of sight, so close your eyes, sift out the light Another scene to die, another crutch gone by, another welt that shifts, dead in the arms of this teeth crack as I clench, tongue tied as the blood starts to spit....all amidst, all amidst this bliss....... So close your eyes, so sick of sight, so close your eyes, sift out the light So close your eyes, so sick of sight, so close your eyes, sift out the light Sift out the light.......

From the bottom, a sinister howl, a place to dismiss, a voice reminiscent of immanent death, dragged away in the still of the night, no not a sound Dragged under, I die alone, what have I done to cater this hole? Ripping one's self from flesh and bone, mouthing the words of another as I die alone A voice not my own, but in my head, severing thoughts i once held instead, this is a new life, welcome home, where death evades none as it consumes my own From the bottom (at which I lay) From the bottom (where silence lay) From the bottom (picked up the pieces of others as my own lay waste)

Vultures 02:04
Watch them roam..... Watch them dream as.... Angels die as the devil cries, Vultures pluck out the raven's eyes, a girl tells ghost tales again as the martyr in red asks why is this........ Believe what they say, from acid rain the walls gave way My time is winding down as they drag the dirt once again She whispers like a sinner's prayer so calm and soverign as they are picked and torn apart and then stripped of, and then stripped of..... Angels die as the devil cries, Vultures pluck out the raven's eyes, as a girl tells ghost tales again, the martyr in red asks why is this........ Watch them roam (and hear their screams) Watch them dream (As they start to flee) Watch them roam (As they're picked apart) Watch them dream (Within this suffering)
7.
Nothing 02:19
Tip toe and watching The line from the other side Somewhere along the line I lost myself there..... Grasping and grasping Yet nothing to clench Desperate schematics and ideals are what's left It's all that's left It's all that's left Nothing I'm nothing (Make me your God) Nothing I'm nothing (Your God I'll be) Shift and shift but The shape won't fit Gone is the conversation Only silence sits....... Shift and shift but The shape won't fit Gone is the conversation Only silence sits.......
8.
Gone 02:37
Bridges burning coming down, bridges burning smokes and cloud, bridges burning all around, bridges burning without a sound Nothing to say, it's nothing to gain, flipped the script and scoffing, it's aphid the spread and sight of loss....... Lined up palm up Lined up palm up Gone.... Remembered but at what cost..... Gone..... Remembered but with different thoughts.... Lined up Palm up Dying, it's like it's everyday Carving names on wrists and staring at vacant space..... Arduous the sound and sight of names dropping Maimed, dead: without names Maimed, dead: all for a name Maimed, dead: all for what Hate to say I told you so..... Gone.... Remembered but at what cost..... Gone..... Remembered but with different thoughts....

In Pieces 02:49
All my friends are gone and dead, scattered round amongst the rest, all my friends are gone and dead, maybe now it's for the best... All my friends (all my friends) Gone and dead (gone and dead) Maybe now (maybe now) It's for the best..... In pieces before me Wasting before me Dead and gone yet somehow it soothes me I look up from the floor, the smiles like never before.....a pill to swallow, to choke or wallow....these harbored sentiments tear away at the bloodborne's final toll........ All my friends are gone and dead, scattered round amongst the rest, all my friends are gone and dead, maybe now it's for the best... All my friends (all my friends) Gone and dead (gone and dead) Maybe now (maybe now) It's for the best..... In pieces before me Wasting before me Dead and gone yet somehow it soothes me Looking down at the floor, their faces like never before..... Epiphany damned, sympathy dead....... Digging up the dredge in the mud of resentful mends...... Wake up.........
