No Man Lies Blameless

no man lies blameless
said the earth to the sky
look around and see
the trail of filth
they leave behind
what were you thinking?
giving life to their kind
deluded
self-important
child
always in silence
never heeding the cries
perhaps your silence
is the proof
you’re just a lie
you’re just a lie

So You're Sick?

so you’re sick?
and you’re a dick
but that’s no excuse at all
and you’re ill
cause you’re filled
with bullshit to the core
and you’re old
cause you’re cold
and your heart froze in time
and you hate
just for the sake
of having failed at your life

A Taste Of My Dying
03:03
|
|

got me a taste of my dying
tastes more bitter
than i’d have ever known
ain’t no use but to swallow
swallow it down
and beg for more
kissed me the lips of my maker
his lips were colder
than i’d have ever hoped
and that kiss
getting colder
colder and chills me
to the bone
save me a place at your table
though i ain’t never
never coming home
i will be hiding
in the shadows
watching and waiting
for your soul
for your soul

he once fell in love
with the back of a neck
belonged to a girl
he should never have met
she held the hand
of a man he called “friend”
and he knew it would all
end in tears
her hair was as black
as the river by night
it shattered his heart
when the two were intertwined
a fit of rage that would have
stayed if he denied
that he knew it would all
end in tears
dragged to the depths
with her lungs full of regret
her final place of rest
dictated by the hand she left
oh jealousy why do you
mock the hearts of
those who grieve
and twist their minds
so murder seems to justify

o what mercy sorrow brings
how it quickens the madening
been to the mountains
drunk wine above the rain
been burned by oceans
now what the hell was my name?
too much is silence
too much is silenced

been sitting drinking, thinking
as the earth rotates
for i have lost my love
for this failing race
i tell you something for nothing
this is how the world will end
i seen a kind man
being swayed by greed
bewitched by worthless shit
more than the love he needs
i tell you something for nothing
this is how the world will end
i seen the pure of heart
lying to the face
of the ones they love
or at least so they claim
i tell you something for nothing
this is how the world will end
i seen the rich man ignore
the dying cries
he says we don’t have the cure
or at least not at that price
i tell you something for nothing
this is how the world will end

Burning The Witch
03:25
|
|
||
this old heart of mine
been drunk ten thousand times
trying to remember you
the smell of cheap red wine
tobacco and turpentine
fire as it kisses you
you waved your words
like a tambourine
of milk tops and plasticine
the shape of a missing part
your song was on
life support machines
all glitter and mirrored screens
a gold painted after thought
you shifted shape
for the passing hordes
a siren of troubadours
the truth a forgotten lie
i watched the smoke
climb into your lungs
your skin as it came undone
i never kissed you goodbye

All Hope Died

she was concieved
while they were high
she felt the stain of life
when he came inside
that was the day
when all hope died
they dreamt of where she’d go
and who she’d become
just to watch her grow
and prove them wrong
that was the day
when all hope died
she grew to hate their trust
and feed them lies
their unconditional love
made her despise
the day when all hope died
she found the perfect man
to break their hearts
he filled her blood with dirt
and broke her bones in half
cause of the day
that all hope died
when she took the gun
and pressed it to their heads
said it’s for all the times
that she had wept
it was the day
that all hope died

I Stood By Her Grave
04:45

|

i stood by her grave
my heart full of rage
how many still live
and how few could give
the love that she gave
on and on all this
stands for nothing
the universe just screams
in my head and i’m gone
i woke by the shore
and i wept for days
how to take any more
and how to be pure
and somehow stay sane
on and on all this
stands for nothing
the universe just screams
in my head and i’m gone
