As Blind As Can Be, This Is The Art To See


As Blind As Can Be, This Is The Art To See

V1
I can hear the silence beckoning
For its voice to be heard among the radio waves
Covered up by a layer of ignorance
Theyll make up stories they wish they could live

Bridge
Consumed by a scripted world
No escape from every scene
Ponders of a new original
Slowly dying symphony

Chorus
But we all have a different story
Signing it with what will come to be
Chill we seem to lose the feeling
Stepping in to recite something unique

V2
Dead silence intoxicates my lungs
Only half decaying, silent as the dead can be
A message amidst chemical reality
I never said understanding would be easy

Bridge
Consumed by a scripted world
No escape from every scene
Ponders of a new original
Slowly dying symphony

Chorus

Outro
In my opinion, the rest is history
Intricate through an intimacy
Delicate and violent as can be
In my opinion, the rest is history

This Is A Blank Page, How Ironic


This Is A Blank Page, How Ironic

V1
Dear man I saw this coming
Every night I wake up screaming
All the screams, dreams, scared of dying
You’re sewn down for even trying

Cause taming paranormal states
Is just a myth with all the rates
Now raise your glass and make a toast
To all the ones you shot the most

Chorus
I bought you a mockingbird
To sing out all the tears you burned
A life for a life was once my own
Tearing hearts from blood to stone
Now take back all the love you gave him
Turn back all the times you came in
And just take, take, take, take
Take a hold of what you got

V2
Fuck I hate the movie stars
Claiming they still have the heart
To take her in with open arms
And shoot her dead from all the harm

And god I hate the scent of you
Buried in the stench of his blood
The one that saved you from the dead
Is right here, darling, like I said

Bridge
Picture perfect
Are we worth it?
Living, undead
Insanely foolish
Merely repeating
Instantly curing
Blood for a blood, man
Soul for the senseless




A Fairytale Undertow


V1/Intro
These hands will never ever shake
They caress your body at the stake
Dear I feel your heart speed fast
Trembling in my arms at last

Forgive me now I can’t hold back
My body aches the love it lacks
Kiss my lips, I feel I must
Surely I’m the one you trust

Chorus
Can you feel my heart when
Sinners proclaim
That we’re all just insane
And God won’t let me
Paint your medley
The tainted, the deadly
Demonically sexy

V2
Did you feel the ash on your tongue?
Where the flames had begun
Burning pain from your pleasure
An unhealthy measure

‘Cause if love were my antidote
I’d hope that tonight you wrote
A bleeding heart for those who know
A fairytale undertow

Chorus --

Bridge
If your knees keep falling to the ground
Show me why I make a sound
Touch me like a prince to be
Darling you’re the only one for me

Chorus




This Song Is So Pointless


This Song Is So Pointless

V1
This is a yellow brick road
And yet I don’t even know
If this is making some sense
Or if I’m rambling again

This is just a pointless task
And it seems I’m at the start
Where pen fits to paper
Gosh I thought you’d never ask

Chorus
This has no meaning
And dear I’m not even thinking
If this will have a consequence
To end all re-caps of events
‘Cause I’m not even trying
Pleasing is forever dying
One more line to make it slow
I’m too dead to make this flow

V2
Who knows why I bother now
I can’t remember how this goes
Was I mentioning a memory
Or making up this shit you see

Something new you ask of me
Something bold, as bright as can be
Here lies a so-called masterpiece
Hypothetically, to say the least

Chorus --

Bridge
Hypocrites are intricate
Speaking minds are in for it
Telling tales of torture’s time
Feelings are all but divine
Imperfection’s taken toll
Turning time into jack-all
Giving in to impurity
Forgiving your insecurity

I’m not even trying

What's Between Love?


What’s Between Love?

V1
I can’t hide from the fact
That what we had can’t come back
It’s just an overrated saying
“I love you” darling don’t you hate me

Chorus
So here I go again
Dreading what I loved then
Failing to forget that
What we had was something special
Forgive me now I’m not the same
I am the one you have to blame
I fell apart and now I’m torn
Between love for you and love at all

V2
Through bloodshot eyes I swore
That I would never hurt you at all
Yet I seemed to break that promise
Now I’m left with the consequence

Bridge
And now I’m bleeding out my wounds
The pills I’m failing to consume
The medicated love of confusion
Is just my own delusion
Now with this pen I wrote
Every single fucking lie you told
Just as plain as any bricked wall
Tagged and torn from life at all

Outro
Now I
I’ll dread what I loved then
And never fail to forget
We always had something special
I’m falling apart
And tearing to pieces
Blame me for I am small
I never loved you at all
