Guilt

The association feels
Like a choking thread
A heavy weight on our chests
A dark night with no respite
A secret for us both to hold
Never lost, never told
Only one and locked away
Not to tell, not to say
Broken down then rebuilt
Should I feel guilt?
This complication seems
Like moulding bread
Spreading like a cancer growth
Creeping like a stalking dread
A terror brought into the light
Now exposed in our sight
Moving forward pulsing blood
Take me now, in your spite
Broken down then rebuilt
Should I feel guilt?

Abandoned
04:51
|
|

An opened wound
Pouring the blood
On your merciless blade
Follow me not
Through slippery death
Where the altar of my love
Will crumble to dust
Abandoned
Wandering lost
In the remains
Of our burning memory
Follow me not
Through slippery death
Where the altar of my love
Will crumble to dust
Abandoned

Ghosts

I wait the change from night to day
The hours seem to die so slow
I need to close my eyes and wait
I need to pass the hours away
With the night, comes the sight
Strange ghosts, they know
In this home I’m not alone
Can’t stay
In these shadows
These ghosts wait
I wander through a place so strange
I’m in the in-between, the unknown
I’ve seen the shapes, I turn away
I need to make it to the dawn
With the night, comes the sight
Strange ghosts, they know
In this home I’m not alone
Can’t stay
In these shadows
These ghosts wait
It feels like I’m not alone
I’m frozen, scared to go
The dawn so far away
They whisper “won’t you stay?”

Tears

I saw your face as tears fall
I know the taste of my own
The path they take is well worn
This riverbed not dry for long
Feels like hope is gone
Beneath this waterfall
Seemed such a small thing
Tears watch them falling
There was a time, another place
I saw that look on your face
The difference now, is what we've known
As more tears fall a cold wind blows
Feels like hope is gone
Beneath this waterfall
Seemed such a small thing
Tears watch them falling

Caldera
04:10

Before the words
Before the voice
The unforeseen
The sheet was clean
This dormant anger
Magma building secretly
Mistook the danger
Misplaced the irony
Once it's all over
Flood will wash into
Smoking Caldera
Between me and you
Can't face your eyes
Stare at the floor
The look unseen
Like in a dream
That misspent anger
Broke through destructively
Wish I could change it
Displace the pain I feel
Once it's all over
Flood will wash into
Smoking Caldera
Between me and you
Close my eyes and hide today
Shut the door and walk away
Leave the fire to burn its flame
wait to see what will remain
Once it's all over
Flood will wash into
Smoking Caldera
Between me and you
If this wind blows strong
The flames will rise and gain
Spread through the land we've sown
Burn it all to grey

In These Shadows

Summer waits too long the aches go on
Warmer days will come and raise the sun
Wanna lay among the grass so long
Feel the gentle breeze that takes me from...
Oh I don’t wanna wish the days away
Oh I don’t wanna wake and it’s too late
In time I wonder will it be ok?
Sunlight will come again and show my way
Underneath it all I feel so drawn
Face the world under the mask I’ve worn
Burning lights, I’ll keep my curtains drawn
Hide behind a wall and sing my song
Oh I don’t wanna wish the days away
Oh I don’t wanna wake and it’s too late
In time I wonder will it be ok?
Sunlight will come again and show my way
In these shadows
I have my ghosts
My abandoned altars to
The gods of guilt
In these shadows
I wait alone
Shed no tears for me
This is my home
Oh I don’t wanna wish the days away
Oh I don’t wanna wake and it’s too late
In time I wonder will it be ok?
Sunlight will come again and show my way
