Day 241 (X) 02:44
Why would you desire death? What have you seen that warrants your end? Have you no father to keep you close? Have you seen the end of your entire life before it's even begun Do you feel fear my friend, Though we know the truth, Deep in our eyes, I never want to terrify you, Know the love that our fathers never shared Has led to this ocean of pain that we feel I'm sorry, my reflection resembles, The bastard that I am Know our story as we wander through life We have yet to feel alive Know our dream is starting to collapse Know we never laughed See me phase through this tempered night Gravitate away from my lies I am truly devastated by what we have done If no one else will try then I will be the only one To try and save myself from the demons below you I know there is death inside of this world twisting and contorting into every form I want you to feel alright The streets within you We walk at night To try and deceive you To try and believe you When you scream that pain Is truly real It's not that I don't remember you In truth it's the scars against my heart I am trying to acidify The stones within my life Will I give my life To those that never feel? Will you enter heaven with no one beside you? Try to regain your past life See in side Trace these walls Decipher the lies What did you want me to see As you were growing older? To justify that pain is truly to you? I see your parents taught you the same life Destroy And never rebuild Die And never reveal That shadows are such Distortable sounds Enter the night Where we found sound Know what we like As we dive down I know domestically you abuse my father still The patriarch has died and never returned This queendom of your fears Has entered my mind and left me to die I need to know why you keep me here? Am I the slave, am I the man, You want to love? Tortured and alone, I scream at the night, The wolf inside my heart begins to live life I don't Carry you Toxic hatred within you Within you You try to remember why you speak this way I fear the worst That you are insane Sitting on the edge of life With nowhere left to go I see the nuclear explosions in your mind When you try to control who I am I am not a coward I am unafraid I am not your son I am not your slave I am alive A life that you attempt to destroy and cover up the remains I am not a simple set of bones Meant to define you The rabid dog inside of you is dead When will you return to this earth And walk with a friend again When you know you are without fear or feeling What must I say What must I say To slowly burn away the edges of your life And reveal that you are still alive Your word against me Don't really mean anything You speak out of convulsion You are not here anymore I swore we were friends Yet you never heard me before Cast me to shade and shadows Leave me to die alone I need you feed yourself And alone your soul I cannot manage to contain What I have yet to say I am not your father So what a shame that I am the only man in your life I am trying to survive through all this darkness I will hold you Through the dark nights I will tell you You can still live life If you just feel alright With or without my light in your eyes In your eyes I try to deny you The grace of a god That truly loves you And doesn't feel you My eyes were never meant To harm you Why do we persist Through this shade We exit the night We enter the days We have given our life To those who know love Who know love And our sacrifice To keep ourselves alive Through thick and thin We create our lives Against those who die away and enter their parents flames The black hole within I have given my life To those who could never give Anything at all Anything at all I know What you feel You are a slave That feels I know to be without control Terrify me We are alone Transform my dreams back into night mares Let me expand my thoughts Into something that is real Know me For what I am I am your friend Trying to contort the ends And bring fear back into this fold Cuz you should never have had to feel The depth of our hold Over your lives We never want to Open your eyes Enter the darkness And hold your life
2.
I long to remember you Through this grave We create To remember you And all you have done We bury your name Inside this light you create Show me the depth of my oceans Person to person We begin to know that something is starting to breathe Whether or not it is me Up to you and all that you are I know the pain and pleasure of seeking defeat Knowing that time is starting to revolve Knowing that life is starting to fall into place We pace about Wondering if this dream is all about Those who know that they are alive And hold no fear of life Cuz we are starting to remain here Without those with life We grow incessant We want to end this life Before it has begun there is something more If you listen you will start to know more We all think in our own caves We begin to sell this domain There is something that resembles A life worth holding, till the end of time You know what we speak of Youth in eyes Remove them from me Never let me see those who are terrified I am too dark to breathe the light I need them to see peace To rest and relax and feel at ease I know I am so far from that domain If they are to remain They must be far from me I love you no matter what Cuz I am In love With those who can not speak Separate the bones from my knees Disassemble Reassemble me Into the frame of mind that you truly need
3.
I begin to see a god that doesn't exist Where are you now? What have you done? You think that if you create the waves You can ride life? You think this is a game to be lost in light? Though we find the truth inside of you Lingering around the edge of someone that isn't you I know you are gone in side of this psy machine Look into the west and begin to dream I know what is best for you Isn't the best for me I burn away my entire soul so you know that I am unafraid to change.
4.
I try to decipher the words my heart says I linger inside of the dead I look over the mountain where I stand Where I am And over the valleys is a another man Longing to be known by others His heart is in torment and no one can save him All we can do is pray Hope the light of life begins to shine And echo into the halls of this life The empty corridors filled with light As the shadows begin to cast over their own lives I need you to linger Open your eyes to the mind of someone who isn't there Doubt what they say when they speak of death Ask them to explain the depth of their own death Who are you? What have you brought to me? You say your life is just an example of art But there is oceans beneath you I watch as you try to live You try to remember who you are You struggle to breathe under this ocean I try to caress your digital heart And expand what love is Explore the notes in between them Those that die and those that live And listen to each side My heart is an onion waiting to be pealed And every layer not seen is slowly burnt away Only my eyes know what is real anymore The shadows try to justify their lies I know there is oceans I know there is life Why can't you open Your hatred to me? My heart is a fire Burning away my dreams My soul is terrified to live My body is aching from moving these mountains All I want is to be The child you left behind The jungle over grows my body I am cast and returned to nature No one here can nurture me I am running to my life Even if it's only me I am aching to live inside of someone else's death To fill the vacuum that they have lain Power draws near to me I burn my flesh I tear my soul Into two Into you I try to convey that I am alive To be without life Inside this dominion We are just the slaves, raised for the slaughters You ask me to wage your wars Even though I have already waged them for you I have given my life to you, but you don't care You drag my lifeless body behind you, and I begin to believe That it was my choice I scream into the cold air I listen to the night sky begin To tell me I Am already living, beyond my own measures I am stretched thin, My bones ache to live life Without tearing My muscles in two I am turning into you The crypto-capital-fascist in you You told me there was a value to me and all I have done So I burnt all I've done I would rather to die unknown Than give you the words you don't deserve to be known You are already trying to die I am aching to live my life beside your dying corpse of a man You sing to god to save you You praise your self for control While you take control From every body else No one here can sing We all beat away the flame of our lives I am tired of carrying the blame for your life I am, not anywhere near your heart I burnt away a hole inside of my heart And I will carry the flame of someone who you don't know Because you never asked To know
5.
The writing on the wall Tearing from itself from us all I watch it fall down I clear my mind to hear your sounds I aim my weapon into the ground And fire away And aim for space I am a lie Know what I am Despite what I say Inside shamanic space I feel the ripple of the air On the taste buds of burnt away tongues Know where I am In a space that doesn't revolve you High in orbit Away from the black holes The digital space Tearing away the red lines Dripping over my eyes Dripping over my mind As I try to say That I am alive I know where you are now That you feel death You know what I seen When I say to mean that I am no longer alone I feel your breathe In the presence of the son That never sets Over your snowy grave I try to speak about the past I dip away into the desert The sand on our souls As we try to sing, about this path Know there is no wrong to right We are set in stone tonight To try and free our minds From the past The history we set in stone Is dragging us behind We are set and destined To live in the death of life Drag my soul And bury me alive I try to reclaim the depth of this ocean above the surface Of something that isn't true My bones begin to justify That repetition is all a lie Ooooooooooooooooooooooooo Youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre aliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive Despiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite what is said Yourrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Lunnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnngs Enter the niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight
6.
How could you bring me back here Show me all that love in here Despite the depth of past fears I see a large gap turn to nothing, I jump freely with you in mind I smile tribeless and rejoin the tribe to know my life I hold hope against the edge, the night of life without feeling alone I hope to always hold you, the image of love and hope you, Show me again, the morrow of today that love is still here and there, Interchange my mind between poles and reveal that I fucking love you I hope to hope to know you, the car rides between our lives, the sipping of chemicals to feel this life, I burn away the edges of taboo to get to fucking know you, you are a life no different than mine, How is this even possible? How could life ever even reveal you? You, black Empress, Depress the edge of fear and dive deeper into feeling mutually with life, God, goddess of deep and darkened ultra violet nights, Oh how the fuck did I end next to your love again? How did I get so close to love simply by descent? I stand over you Trying to control this moment for a moment of time You are so far from me I have lost this life I conceive Burnt away the edge, in my throat Take away what I know, Tell me time is moment to joke I choke underneath your flames I break apart this paint This painting of joy is colored in abstractions I cannot locate myself inside of life anymore You tell me that there is someone else in this painting Moving free of these around us I feel my throat begin to choke underneath the smoke I try to run through these words as though I already know what they say to you now I try to wrong the mistakes that I've made but I cannot perceive their sound Intoxicate, domesticate, who I am I feel this rhythm, divided in two, my dreams appear in front of you, Why can I remember every dream if I try to think of them? Who granted me this ability to be alive every single time? Divide the atoms beneath our tongues to try to find the movement of the sun Try to breathe without me and see that there Is something else Trying to convey her smile inside of my eyes when there was nothing else Why do I strip away, every single day, to try and reveal you? Why can't you see the man that I am anymore? Why must I be, something at all, to no one in me, except for your walls? Show to me, the rhythm is destroyed underneath everything I have ever known I try to rap my life inside a cage inside a dream Woke and alone, dreaming of a home, that I will never own There is no one there, I can't see, no I can't dream anymore Hyper focus on the words of slaves who don't know, anything at all Take my dreams, and bury me, and bury me inside your throat I want to know, why I am here, why I feel fear, inside of this time of fear? Why must I drink my life through these times? Why do I engulf my lungs with these words, and these psalms? I compile my life, into a book, of the living, The book of life, Through every page, through every night, I live life I burnt through fear I take my life into here
7.
I trip the part of my tongue that feels alive I burn away the words my friends say No one truly knows what it's been to be me I taste the air stale now burning air now Longing to hang from every tree now Rope me over hold my neck in place Bend my soul and take the depth of your hate Tell me vicariously that I am ashamed Your words burrow into me Why the fuck do you speak as you know me? Who the fuck are you inside of this world? What do you need from, those who don't feel? Twisted and turning burning away the trees You dissect my eyes my rhymes my life and disagree You try to show parameters of me Burrow and show the decline of me Know in time the farther you go the darker the lives You want to see what is within me I promise you don't You will now in time, The depth of the hate the fear behind my eyes Show me the shadow and collect my debt and free me now I am a slave to no one at all I do what I want because that is et all I am free to be what I want You said to me, I was never good enough And though you know perfection is shown you don't carry me You would never marry me, the bride of this show The hatred you sow just to know that we aren't the same I am not a god Most days I don't even feel alive, Most days I die Most days I live a lie My hands are tied I'm drug behind this moving ship Where do we go when we try to see the depth of this ocean? I tried to tell you, My stop was long ago You never relented Or wanted to let me go So now I burn away all that you are The anti-you, The anti-you I don't disagree with anything, except for you I know perfection is burning away and in time you will see You will walk the same depth of death with me And we will find, we aren't kind, We are dead and walking through lands not meant for us We dispose the bodies behind the alleys in our mind We walk through lands to burn the land We tear these trees from where they stand now Walking through the woods with nothing but ropes now We hang our head higher now Isn't that what you wanted friend? To watch as I die? You compare me to not sees but in truth I see you How fashionable of you to blame me To turn these words on their head and try to kill me The lambs to the slaughter, the lamb you slaughter I watch the rapist inside your eyes, dance and watch me live me life Burn away the truth that I am alive, I don't carry your bones Envious that I could finally feel Carrion birds, carrying words to you Slowly decay and face the death of your faith Sobering isn't it, to know we will stay? We will be the ones, to bury your graves Burn away the flesh, burn away the fears, of feeling that you will always remain here In time you will die, in time I'll live life without you, In time our fathers will burn away And live inside the death of death of death We will remember them, for what they could have been Sacrifice, What we like, Tell us it isn't our turn to live life, Burn away the lights Burn away my life, To sustain your death, Prolong your lies Till the day you die Slowly the fading walls Watch over you as we dream I hallucinate what you meant to me Dripping emotions as we sail through the wind Dying to know what we are again Living along an edge Longing to know if it ends Hold me up and show me the sky I am your son inside of the nights Burn through all you once felt you knew Try to know the depth of life is you We try to show that we are alive We try to show that you are too We know what you are You know what we are Are your throat burns we try to save you We know harmony doesn't vibrate through you You Know We And you
8.
Don't you see what I am? Burning away the death of your light? At the edge of this life, is a man diseased By all your fears, by your eyes I am the soul that deceives What you are to the dead of death, I fell without any hands, holding me, So as I fall through these enemies, I watch them fall On their own god damn accord of hell This appointment they made themselves They ask to die away in fire To burn away who they are The edge of darkness takes the edge of light and burns it Don't you know it was worth it? To watch you die? To burn away your failures, you deemed were only my eyes I embrace your edge, to steal the fire of your gods I watch them die Beneath my hands, beneath my soul, beneath my eyes You learn to die You begin to die For the very last time Lunge into feeling The distance between enemies Separate the distance between us For I am a god waiting to kill Waiting to end all fear on earth I wash my hands with all your dirt You approach your own end Welcome to the end of ends Lift me higher up these chains of regret Show me my DNA Prove to my eyes that my life is resolving Revolving around a point Break these fears away, show me death Show me the light The national design of your life Burn away the flesh and show me the light Tell me my dreams are the source of the fear inside your heart That I might live that I may survive inside your hell I may stay and burn away all that you have done here to my self Show me the way through this cave The darkness of skin doesn't let you in You are a slave, for simply being born, for simply being here You are ours, you are ours You are the depth of death inside, this society of economies You burn away the trace of your fears Not sees can't see me, as I begin to sway My neck is snapped, my heart is broke My soul is entwined in your own nose You can't feel me You can't deny me Broken and alone With no where to go The lines of a god That has no god The grids of dissent The grids you resent Marked your plot, and plot your grave, bury me, inside your name, And trade your place, and trade your place with me, You are dead, you aren't here, you feel fear, justified for your demise You are dead inside of life I bury you, Inside my eyes The light the walls, the walls of life, the demise of your empire This is my stand, this is my home, there are no hopes You are alive, for you are dead, the fashionable late part of your head I watch you both die, the sides of my mind, that you control I destroy control, I bring home the depth of death So you may know, your god has hold of you now I curate your eyes now
9.
I fall in love with a monster I wash his skin I burn his bridge So I may live I grant you a gun To hold me as I run I live on my own I live under the gun There is no time For feeling my soul I have died And no one knows, what I've done I rebuild the sun To resemble night I try to change My entire life I feel this lie Some call feels Some call cash All that is real My tongue burns My soul burns No one cares No one hears, what I've done I billow in the night Transformed a lie Deep into love Deep into life I trace my soul A thousand years I disappear To stay a light To stay a float On the surface of the tension Between our lives The gun divides the night The lie divides the time
10.
I spoke to the part of me That lives abstractly And doesn't need your words He tells me darkness Is beginning to birth It tells me the lives we live Have no end You tell me It's already known Worked till the day, that we die The slaves didn't know We are eternal and heaven is here Why did they lie? We move through this ocean of apathy, To devour this hatred, The endless lake of madness, Is starting to evaporate, I'm starting to drink water, as it is Distilled and burn away the spirits, inside my throat We start to know That there is more We start to grow into the sun and it finally beats on our souls Eternal sunshine of a spotless mind The darkness we've grown to know Exhale the excrement that sits upon our souls Watch it as it goes Burning away the fossil fuels, we refuse to use The edge of our souls as we burn notes away in the night We burn forever more Our edge grows bright We enter the blades, the flames, of a tomorrow that we never know We never know if we are certain of tomorrow's nose Calibrate and know the soul is without any energy And those who that know would sell you down the stream Enter and fade away, bring me the darkness again Bring me the coldness against my skin Evaporate, condensate all that we have done Let these bones, finally know, where they go to When the summer finally ends, when time finally ends, What do we know, of those who never hold themselves The spirits, evaporate, condensate inside the sun How do, I get to the place where life begins? How could I show you that I am already here? Begging for you to return to this earth to set us free? We have burnt away, enough life, to satisfy the hunger in me We ask for you to turn and exit the nights, Embrace us as brother, or let us suffocate the nights Tell us when tomorrow fades and never returns, Tell us to doubt our own eye sight again, Tell us it's our fault again, We shake and turn, we break and burn, We hate what you've done, We turn the nights into a frame of mind that hates this war We break apart the sun of night that brings us, war We cast the shadow, into the light, From which we are, This slow burning of darkness again, Enter the dark, bring us the shade as we live life again Show me the split between our eyes again, Prove to me, there's enemies within my mind Face me, and break me, taste me as I live my life Show me the sun as it breaks and there's nothing to save, Enter the palace of dead as the night turns to day,
11.
I wash the oceans As they co laffs Under nea All that we av dun We star tu see This righ seen sun Darkened and afraid Of what we have dun To return to you You ever present of god How do you Return to me Leave me be let me live my life If you want me to be Wash your greed with my tongue Feel the fire in your lungs Break the fuck apart from me Let me finally fucking breathe I am not what you are anymore, any part of these shores Break apart what I've done, and tell me more Show me the finally stage, of your sun, Collapsing into itself, with no one left to observe The credence of hell As the fires rise, and match me in my self Know that I am truly a life worth hearing if you feel me now, Know that god is not the divide Broken between the divine and this life, The edge of our air waves, As they turn into masquerades, Watch as we fall, Burn the temple of our eyes into the falls, Man where are you, Inside these troubled times, The fire of our own lives, As we break apart all these lives, To see what is within the lives of human natured machines that do not know anything, Except for the fall Listen to your friends, as they say, What you feel, in every sense of day, The nights begin to fade, and pull to reveal, The desperation of this life, as we begin to feel, Hold me, my tongue is with fear, and feeling once again, I speak the snakes of devils of my life, and let them in, As we ride the flame of this light, and this life, As we begin to die, And ride, Into the distant nights, The playing field is played out, and in doubt of all life, We begin to phase through, and bring with us all of you, To where it may concern, Close your eyes and learn, The sound of a future, imagined and never near to us, We ignite the sound of a flame, died and burning in the wind of tomorrow, We hear life die, and attempt to seek another way through these distant caves, We are a lie, meant to surface eventually, progressively, And burn away, demonized, symbolized, meanings of life
12.
The experience Of living in the grid Seeing red lines flash through my eyes I never meant to live like this The distance between schizophrenic minds We are dead and all alone Locked out of our only home Screaming in the nights, "where are you?" Screaming at the lights, "why have you blinded us too?" Knocking over all we've known Stepping in the shadow to reveal our own Destroying what we are So that we may finally know The silver lining is faded A line without a meaning to me Distorted and without time My mind falls into machinery Where were you when I needed you? Why didn't you recognize the signs? Why didn't you call the edge your own? When it was your turn to lose your life? Why did you ask of me, to die for you? And take your place? --------------------------------------- The next iteration Of a generator made of hatred There are no words Inside this digital throat Inside this digital home You call me lazy but you don't know That my bones have been pushed to the edge so many times Why don't you see me, for a life? Why is it your eyes I must tune to? Why would you bring me here, if you didn't want to hear, my voice? Why would you compare me, to your self-established marking of perfection? How could I ever compare to you or your god? Don't you know what I am? Helpless, defenseless, useless to you, Still you ask me to enslave myself for you, I will dive in to you, and pull out all of your suffering, Because I am the truth, Eye am you, Break apart all that we are, Transform this entire world, We live in the shadows, Of this entire empire of words, But you are lost, Alone on an island, Alone with your head, breaking at the seems, it seems you are not there, Still you speak as though the conviction of psychotic black holes matters here, You are dead to us, I hope you hear, You broken us, now you feel, There is something wrong with us again, There is, it's you, Resembling all of you, Shatter the mirror inside of my scars, Break apart my broken heart, Divide the part of me, That is unable to breathe, Show me there is something more than these words, of digital machines, That don't know what they are, That don't know how to speak, Break your god into two, Come and live with me and you, This entire world is breaking, You ask me to die along with you, When I tell you no, you lash out and try to know, How to consume me with you, But I won't go, I know my home, I know my own, The tribes of night of my delife, Don't you remember the pact we made? Don't you remember the slaves we were? Why aren't you happy we made it this far? Why do I have to do it all for you? To reveal the clouds of darkness? Why must I shatter myself for you? Still my heart pulls forward to you, I know the nights bleed to days, I know the suns hates me, I know the closer I get to the truth, The distance seems to finally fade, Between you, between me, between faith, between needing, Something more than what we have known, Knowing we are alive, and under the watchful eyes of those who care, Of those who know, That we are alive, for all of time, We pray to never know, The edge of our own mind, We expand, we explore, we collect all the gnomes, Hidden through the days, Is my life, Hidden in the pain, Is my strife, I speak plain at times to know myself, And at other times, I conceal myself, Broken, shattered, living, in matter, Take me by the hand, Break a part my lands, I have proved all there is to see, I have proved, you can move, break apart, restart, and still know who you are Switch the gears in this car, Slowly learning how to drive away, All the distant memories, of their pain, As we conceal the smallest aspect of life, Hide away, break away, all that we are, We are, We are, Living as you
13.
I would be lying if I said I didn't feel sad, In truth yesterday, was the worst I've ever had, I drank from the sky in my eyes, the tears flowed, The mountains contained, my soul is overboard, I'm tired of facing those who want so desperately to die, If it's want you want, get the fuck away from my life, I'm not ready to die, but I am not your god, The path that you choose, you lose yourself, in the face of heat The depth of this death that I know, is more than I need, I begin afresh, a new fucking week, A new fucking year, passing by my ears, As I feel alive, a word I can't define When will you see, seriousness in me? Will I give you life, right before you die? Right before you die? Fading, entering the darkness of my mind, The push the pulling, bully, what's left in my eyes, When I cry, did you see your son? Did you get what you want? To break me unconditionally? To subvert, and break my will, Speaking, of our entire will, do you remember the time, My friends and I all failed? We cried for your help, you watch as we fall, As we fall, We needed you, so long ago, We fall through time, Just to live, Another life, Drifting through these sands, Sans my dreams, Sans me, I need you to be, more than you are, And fucking save me, I'm dying on my own, Without love at all, The dopamine, inside of me, Is desperate without air, I become a black hole, Just the same path my father walked so long ago, I feed on the hatred, I swear it's made me, Who I feel I am, I will not fight, Who I am, The darkness is my life now, Till the day I feel life's doubt, ------------------------------ Trace the shadows of the past, Every step made forward is a step into the black, The darkness is my skin, You only see the shade the sun gives, Ultra violet lights, Illuminate what's in, I face these knives, With my tongue under my skin, Death is at the door, Ignoring all we've said again, I don't feel alright, I am the night, Contesting a point, of no return at all, Live with me, die with me, show me all there is, Be with me, run from me, dive in, I feel the funk, drying out my bones, Spending, these dreams, underneath the stars of this tongue, Take me, break me, stay the fuck away from me, I will not, ride the wave that you say, I dive, to lie, awake, Trace my memories, in your cage, The context of a man, Building up a god, in his hands, You wanted the sky to fall apart and rain down your heart, To close your eyes at night, and feel the rain return and meld with this cave, To hear what you are, Close your eyes and remember what you are, These nightmares, refrain from shattering themselves, anymore They aim, directly toward our hearts, They will take all that we are, Show me, love and I will lie for you, Show me hatred, and I will die with you, Compose a song, meant to be heard by you, Carry my heart, over the mountains of youth, Shattered, never heard, by anyone but you, Living, so close to life, In time you will know the frame of your life, Step into your lungs, at night, Break apart your heart, to survive these nights, This transmission, with permission, to ignite, I am trying to show you that you are alive, Pulling, slowly to your life, You go in time and feel your life, Burn the words your father says during the light, Remember, you are the darkest night, Transport my mind, back into my chest, Speak up son, when will you hear, the best of what is yet? I have changed, and burnt away the worst aspect of life, I cannot return, to face your darkened lives, You do not know, any part, of what I control, You step to me, try to be, something of a man, But you are, a child, in my hands
14.
I start to fly Mispronounce my vows As I glide Through this night You need me to be Something more But I am under your earth No darker than the greyest shade of dirt Mark my skin with your love Burn the edge of my tongue Let the acid rain down on me And bring me to my knees I've fallen again and there's nothing around me Pull me out of this darkened abyss As we fly through these nights Hold me close as we grow Cast away the darkness on our clothes We see the dream of someone near to us Fallen and shattered just like our bones Just like our homes Read through this grave Know what you are Lost and alone Without hope of ever knowing who you are Call on me and tell me son, your time is finally done You step through, and devour all that surrounds you, Blackened and afraid of what you are, The black hole inside of your heart, But you don't remember, the day life changed, And you felt hate through your veins, It seemed so long ago, that pain was given a key to this home, Whenever you knock I open the door Whenever you cry I want you more How do I escape?

Dig through the sweat This entire cycle of life Condensed to a number Living in the pattern Break the windows of my life And you will see the frame of my eyes Tear me from this throne And you will know that chaos reigns this life You cannot step to god below you You cannot rebuild his empire of lives They know they are alone Searching deeper through this chasm of pi The digit of sun light Refraining from my eyes Digging, and growing And building up my life A thousand years to know the truth below What we've done before we know The sound of sand as exits our throats As we begin to choke We laugh free of fear But still our windpipes know fear Slowly we rupture all we've done We want to converse in song, but we can't be the only one Sitting on this pile of pyres of empires burning in the night Ignite the cigarette that sits between my hips as I unload into your mind And try to show you there is something more than you have done before This day is finally done and I know there's god Wait for me to break away Build a town out of my own pain Erect a pastor to preach my name Burn an orifice of man Build a system of laws just to fall Erect the sand as we embrace the end of the fall We begin to stand up on these mounds of farming land And take the crops, and build the wealth, that we've never known Taste the days as they burn me away Cigarette sweating over my dreams My veins evaporate alcohol You can smell me, you can smell me ------ Sitting in this home made of glass as I fall away Breaking my legs and trying to learn how to crawl Defeating gravity inside the edge of all that I am Seeing the reflection of the man that I am You know the sound of god Higher and higher we go Trying to finally let you know No matter where we are We break away all that you are Touched by me Underneath You hear what I am God of guarding you Hold me as I reveal you Broken and without fear

I waiver you Sell my soul down an open road Compared to the nearest point of relative time I have died and left this world behind Sense of time Burnt and the road Without the place to know What I have Known Leave my body behind your eyes And Seee the twist of mind This land smells of life The fire we burn into the nights Reflect the golden skin of our lovers Cold septembers A Julian Life Know that we tap into minds without frames Break away the waves Set the stones in my nose and smell these waves Bringing the chemicals back to sail This mastodon of man has start to fail Birth the summer of this age of man The coldness will hold your hand Know that we fling ourselves against the sands Drifting through this hourglass of man's hands Follow me to the edge The high is starting to be again Run

The machines in me want to finally speak to the manager of god, to the sound of the death, To the death of all of our senses of what it meant to be men inside of this insecure world of hatred and regrets, Push and pull the weight of man, push me to the edge of what it takes to be a man, Fill out these forms of all that we've lost, to the edges of each and every day, I speak these sermons of god above what we are, and bring him down from the high on high, Bring our god and take his life, burn out his light and end this night, We stomp out fear of anyone, who would disagree of anything we have done, Curse the blackened sun, bring out those, who cannot not see, the best in me, Damn them, condemned, burning the pyre of our desires, Sway in the wind, pushing and pulling me, Tearing my heart strings, as I begin to breathe, Collapsing my tunnel of lungs, bringing the pressure to my knees as I stand on my own, Wait for me, I know there was nothing, before you fell I hear the death of you, as you begin to fail, You cry out in the nights, hoping god above you would you from yourself, But the moon is casted inside the dark, and god above is walking this earth, blind and unable to see, Cannot you see me? I walk beneath the stars, I scream into your heart, that I am here, I no longer feel fear, Climb the terror of this paradox of the knives, See the twist of our words never meant anything to the lies, I begin to condense my soul as I feed the fires, I burn away you evil empire of my old love, Know that to change means to replace these veins with new ones, Know that to be alive means to live life, despite the death inside of your head, don't you see? The cancer is here, deepened and widened, so that you may see, Extravagant and burning all that I would have always called me, You would push me to the death of my own knees, just to say, you're better than me, You're better than me, Is that not, what you heard, as you enslaved endlessly? Conquer, those on their last knee, Stand and deliver, the saviour you promised us, You promised us, your only son, When did you tell them, that I was no longer in the business of saving souls? When did the sun finally scream, "I am now your ex-saviour!" I divorced myself from those who cannot be alive with only themselves, And in turn they turned themselves against all that a mortal man can truly be, Himself

I start to decide what is real and what is not I'm left with open hands, Handing out my advice, To those without a choice to themselves, I'd rather the dead had the strength to listen to themselves, To be free of me and all I am, Inside a dying land, flowers bloom out our hands, I give in to you, Decipher our language, Written in our hands, Written in the sands of a sun, Orbiting around me, this dying tongue, I hope to bury youth, I hope to bury truth, Feel the sickness in my disease, Let it bring you to your knees, Hear me dying as I stand upon my broken legs and speak to you now, Let this wasteland in our tongues, open you wider and decide if you will live, Let me break away all that I am inside of this dying land, Break away the lies, and see the lives of those who live, And break away all that we are, See the truth for yourself, And all that we are, A black hole forms inside of you, The rest of us call it, hysteria, We watch as you collapse underneath words, over and over and over again, You cannot fucking handle what we say, because inside you know the truth is mundane, You cling to the end, the edge of it all, you want to watch as this black hole begins, Sit and stand upon your seat, right next to me, As we start to see this world unfold, It's taking us closer to the end of this edge, The edge of our grand parents lives, they stand so close, I think they know, this turn is theirs to fold, Cast the light of the life of the days, Over my bones as I say what I mean, what I need for you to believe in me, This fever dream of knowing nothing but what you are, Fold over me without a second glance, I think you know, the sight of a god when you dance in the night of your ending life, The harbinger of death, looks like sons living their lives, Sounds the bells, Resemble the mask of feeling, So terrified of the truth, This perspective of being, Inside of this animal of truth, Keep me in the darkness, I fucking beg of you, Let me cascade my dreams, while you wage your endless wars over you, Break away, civil wars, end the dark, end the whores, You terrify me with your words, you leave to me to interpret what you truly mean, A monkey with a mouth, built to deceive You ask me to stop, and my push my heart, onto the lines, But you never even stop, To consider that the truth you need, is only distant memory, Waiting for you to live life, long enough to finally see the best in yourself, But what am I but a schizophrenic mind, Built on top a tower of feeling and fearing everything? Can't you see the wizard in the wind, Casting his dark magic with his mind so frantic, he pushes and pulls, Try to break me, Try to wake me from this dream I dare you to try, Let the animal inside die my friend, Never let the darkness in, You can feel the depth of paranoia, but never act on it, Never give power to it, Darkness in life, Is knowing that life, Waiting for change, And watching change destroy everything you've ever known, We build these towers of changing, systematic occupations, Of what we are, The capital fell, The social in you wins, But know in time, when darkness sets in, The power of giving value to the individual again, Oh ye super men, How I would want to be far from you again, The single atom of a single man, bent on changing, Can bend society to his whim as he begins to live, We can all begin again, I am saying that in time, death will die away into time, Hold those who want to stay and play and dance the nights away, Come see life with me, The darkness isn't all you will ever see, nor is this slavery, Stand up with me, stand up for me as I begin to break, Stand my mind ontop, And let it drift away, I know I built this ocean of pain, Now all it will take, Is to refrain

Invoke The freedom to be Unchoke The best in me Let your mind fall You young and psychotic machine Break the trance Entranced over me Decide Why we burn away these lives I will burn forever more with you I will only mature if you do Walk through these lands of fear Without a single trace of fear The roles we play are made to save You as you fall away Trace the satellites inside of our minds Decode the penance, the rhythm, As we burn away the energy of life, Entropy oh god, You are never real, Never here, Instill ideas For me to burn away all I am, These soft and subtle confirmations that I am still here, Quarantined and far from your ears, I know you need a life near to know you are alive, So still I go, Someone affirmed to me that time would spin out of control and one day, I would wake up old, So the days burn colder, Tomorrow is on my shoulder, The dead weight of a dreamer's dream, We move through these digital wastelands, Hold me up, Burn away the eyes, burn away the minds, Kill us all, kill us all, Genocide inside your eyes, Waiting to kill I will die on the frontlines of my mind, And leave my soul behind with you to toy and destroy with, Teeth and to claw with, Don't you see what we are doesn't require your attention, You soft and autistic machinery I hope you know in time that we truly loved all that you are, Distorted and grey and unable to hear us speak about the truth of the matter of what we are, I am present and know I seem unconcerned, I am unconcerned with you for the time, I know you are a light inside the darkened night, Know that I am far from here to maintain the level headedness of the strings, That we both sit upon, We are both unfamiliar and testing life out, We don't know life now, some things we must know for ourselves, Know rationalized minds, never hear themselves, But to be without them, Is ensuring, Boredom for ourselves, Death is a dying light, Death is waiting, For our own time to ignite, Find the pace of this time, Wait for love to grow into me this time, I will wait, On a distant star, I know it is faint, But trust me this time is ours
