Sweet Memory, Sleep
Wasting away like a fading memory
Of things that'll never be 'cause I
Chase them away
Peace, appease the child
Lurid and begging for
Change the thing you wanna be
"Cause I ain't changing a thing
She said, "I won't waste away and I taste like an angel's tear.
My Dear, you're going astray."
And she said, "I swear I won't break you if you don't wake me from this dream."
I'm singing "Sweet memory.....sleep.....sleep."
(Take your love away!)
Warm light...and empty prayer...
You're the suckling of a fire's glare
As vagrant visions of you drift by
Peace appease my mind.....torrid and begging for change
The things you wanna be 'cause I ain't changing a thing
And she said, "I won't waste away and I taste like an angel's tear, my dear.
You're going astray."
And she says, "I swear I won't break you if you don't wake me from this dream I'm singing."
Sweet memory, sleep....sleep.
(take your love away!!)
Disciple
Here's where they hang apostles by their own words
Here's where they marry martyrs unto the dirt
His words are wasted on my deafened ears
It makes me so unsure I'm sure that I should fear....right?
Sweet Mary, precious...priceless....won't you bleed on me?
I'm in complete....and all I want is all
I want to set you free.......yeah........set...you free!
Risen
You bring me down...but all your tears won't break my heart
You look my way....even though we're miles apart
And all your pain weighs heavy on me
So I break these chains...and set myself free
You're one of a million puzzle pieces I could put together
And make a pretty picture, but to come to focus you will never
What if someday I just turned and walked away? Who would you beat thern?
Risen from your grasp...I have to laugh as I watch you wallow in your own deep end.
II will rise....like the sun and the moon....I will rise.....I will rise!
What if someday I turned and walked away...who would you beat then??
Risen from your grasp I have to laugh as I watch you wallow in your own depend.
I will rise!!! Like the sun and the moon!!! I will rise!! I will rise!!!
Shibboleth
Arise, you tired soul...my feet are broken on the stones of your heart
My fire's drenched in your sorrow fountain
The flame dwindles demeanor and soot....trodden under careless foot
Arise you weary, weathered ghost...the shibboleth's an artless guile
My hands are stained in the blood of your hand shake
The grasp of a shineless demon deity...basking in his own false piety
Time undoes the walk of travelers....shares it's breath with children, yeah....
It weeps in solemn voices...and the spaces are filled in
Time undoes the mocking bird's travels...shares it's breath with children, yeah...
It weeps the solemn voice of Gone
And the spaces are filled.....in time
"Never again!" she cried....
"Never again!" and she died that day singing, "Amen."
Potential
Softly...she slips into her guise
Summer moon and cloudy sunrise
Tonight.....tonight...tonight she flies...
So cradle my head in your feathered wings
Cause the moon comes too soon and sorrow's all tomorrow brings
Tonight...it's alright....tonight she sings
Sadness I will ride you 'til I weather winter's veil
It seems the dream has come and gone without warning of setting sail
Tonight...tonight...I will not fail....and I love you....
....and I love you....
Cipher
Chaos embraces karma
There dance is divine
Too close to wager juxtaposed, they settle on sublime
And there, in darkness, once again the feud resumes
Who's tail has chased the dog and who's to be consumed?
You know it doesn't really matter....so why bother?
You know that nothing's really "matter"
Yet, I'm still here...
Chaos entangles happenstance
For interlude and premonition
Falling on enlightenments glance they ponder repetition
Too soon they squander babblings of what they do
When one can never really know...one can only knew
You know it doesn't really matter....so why bother?
You know that nothing's really "matter"....can't disappear
Another Name For Murder
MURDERER!!!!
Suck it up you sick fuck
Your life is dirt now
Rotting there...food of the Earth
Your smell is just as your life....
Wretched....disgusting....pungent....and wasted....
Murderer!!!!
As you lay there, surrounded by your own blood now...
Not being one to judge....but since you won't budge...
Just face up and stiff, rotting....blistering...and drawing flies....
You're just another suicide.....
SUICIDE!!!!
What Happened To One
Choking from the first step
Eyes all over the world
Spoken as the traveler
From the skies I swirl
Broken, the cage of my mind, I fly
Once upon a time I needed just another reason why
To go ahead and finally settle the score
Now the voices inside my head are screaming, "MORE !MORE! MORE!"
There's no fighting your self so I obeyed
After all this is the home that my mind has made
My words are sweet and very few, so understand when I say
"I'm coming for you..."
What can I say? (Don't matter anyway)
You wanna blame? (I'll watch you go away)
You run away (I'll find you anyway)
It's al the same (It's all the same!!)
My mind seems shattered
All my thoughts awry
Truth is scattered
Like sunlight through stained-glass eyes
Behind the Times Backwards
A careless haunting in my ear that seems to draw me near
I waste my week away...I sit anticipating
Receiving words out there...if I had a care I guess I'd stay but I can't keep her waiting
The liturgy of dicey lines makes melancholy seem just fine
And if I had a focus I'd make my way past this mordant belaying
There's nothing like the sun to bring me down
I've been flying all night, now I'm touching ground
And my wings ain't free....not like all the angel's I see
A careless haunting in my ear that always seems to draw me near...
And if I had a choice I guess I'd stay but I can't keep her waiting...
Even When
If I can't take your breath away
I'll stare you down...I'll wear you out
And you'll fall for me....like any wall
Know, it's just a matter of time...
I'll wait here for you....indefinitely
Even if the hands of time slip from your face
And tear the sun from the sky.....I...
Will wait for you indefinitely
And should your heart turn the clouds to rain again
And drown me in your weepings
Your reflection I'll be keeping...indefinitely...
Even when you fall down....
I'll wait here for you.....indefinitely
And should your heart turn the clouds to rain again
And drown me in your weeping
Your reflection I'll be keeping
If I can't take your breath away...I'll stare you down
Dead In My Skin
Wide awake, and here I lay
A servant to your whim
Would it be okay if I just sit here...waiting on you?
So take it all away or give it all to me...don't just leave me here
Waiting on you....
Your smile creeps in, slides down my chagrin and further down the drain...yeah....
Cover me up...it's never enough...see me
Sucking it up....holding it in....hold it
Long enough to let it in...to begin....
I'm dead within my skin
Stay
Hey, hey...besides your heart being cold...what's new??
They say too much of anything can kill you...
But you go away
You never stay
I may decay
But you never stay
I'm feeling fine now that you're gone
But I'm hoping against hope...you won't stay long
Why can't you stay?
Why go away?
What should I say....when you never stay?
Why can't you stay???
Why go away??
What should I say...when you never stay??
You never stay...
Only go away
Leaving me this way....
Leaving me...
Infinite
There's no escape...
No uncertain....
No more shame to be...
There's no more remorse to be had from me
Induced at conception, the scar now fades
Turning Fates to loom their rage
There's no peace like repentance of what's mine and what's yours is yours.
Welcome to...life eternal...face it boy....your life's infernal
There's no more reason...
No more prestige...
No more sweet disease to pedestal upon in deed
And words to vent your curse...am I to be pleased???
And the light was separated from the dark...
The three towers stood as monuments of the days
When the worlds would engage in ecstasy
Now just ruins are all that stand
Forever scarring the face of the world's new children
CAN YOU FACE THE TRUTH OF WHAT YOU MADE OUT OF MY LIFE??
YEAH, BUT CAN YOU FACE THE FACT THAT NOW YOUR SOUL IS MINE???
