BENEATH THE CREEK
I am the dark
Embedded in your heart
I am the fuse
Ignited by weakness
Set to destroy
All that you love
What you see
What you feel is corruption
I am the dark, I am the fuse
Guide your hands to cover your eyes
Don’t breathe
Don’t breathe
Don’t make a sound
Push yourself towards the ground
From the sun above
To the water below
The answers we seek lay deep within the creek
Deeper within
Into the darkness
Hold your breath
Dive deep into regret
Follow the light
Hold your breath
Dive deep into death
Into death
Guide your hands to cover your eyes
Don’t breathe
Don’t make a sound
I’ll keep the light out yet
Just hold your breath and watch me burn in darkness
We are not far away from the end
There’s not much left of the fuse that was given
Remember the reason
We spent hours below
Forged it into our souls
Leave us in the dark
Self-destruct
Guide your hands to cover your eyes
Don’t breathe
Don’t make a sound
I’ll keep the light out yet
Just hold your breath and watch me burn in darkness
There’s a corruption inside
Lingers within our body
There’s a corruption inside of me
Painful death and remorse
I long for a better end
A better end
I can see the light
I don’t want to go
Stay with me

THE SOLSTICE REBIRTH
I fear for what I’ll become
I am no longer in control
Can I survive through the night
My fear is blocking my vision
I can’t help myself to scream for help
Don’t know if I can take the pain
I gave it my all to shield me from this hell
I lost myself within this burdened soul
No longer in control
No air can escape my lungs, as the panic sets in
This is how it begins
Swallow the sun and welcome the night
Their eyes lost all life, as we faded into the night
Pull me up from the ground
My flesh sculptured to their will
Drawn from their belief, an endless disease
I’m marked for this life, what if I opened my eyes
Could I see all the wrong, could I see what I’ve become
I am awake from the tremor within
Forming from my sin
Earth
Call my name
Cleanse me from my shame
I’ll come back
In the silence of the night
I’ll come alive
Swallow the sun and welcome the night
Their eyes lost all life
As we faded into the night
Pull me up from the ground
Pull me up from the ground
Hang me high
Let them see
Their creation
Let them see
Their fear

THE LAKE
I don't remember walking out of that forest dream
I don’t know if I ever did
I don’t know if I ever did
Why do I keep being frail
Of your pain and frustrations
The scent of rot and decay
Takes me further down this purposeless path
Only to be disintegrated again
Physical fault and death close at hand
Depleted and weakened
I'm at your demand
I’m worn out
Living in the guilt of being misused
Death keeps me up at night
Living in the guilt of being misused
But I can find no one to help me lift myself off the ground
You fill up every empty space
It’s like you suffocate me with your absence
You did me so much wrong
But I can’t help myself
To follow you
And even though you’re dead
I follow you again
Even though it's over I know you're dead and gone
I keep seeing you from my backyard window at night
Forcing yourself in again
Arise and untie
The night is dark and I swoon
In the glimmer of the moon
I can’t stop to wonder
Was that really you
I miss the sound of your voice
Every day always the same
You fill up every empty space
It’s like you suffocate me with your absence
You did me so much wrong
But I can’t help myself
To follow you
And even though you’re dead
I follow you again
(I walked barefoot into the grove behind our house)
I follow you again
The raw night rain pastes the forest dirt
On the soles of my feet.
My hands linger, dark shapes
Holding me as I follow a ghost
My pale skin meets the cold lake
Where the leaves still whisper
Whisper of violence
Whispers of tears
I don't remember walking out of that forest dream
I don’t know if I ever did

A Voice In The Static

A VOICE IN THE STATIC
Do you feel the sour taste of regret
Do you lie awake at night
Long for change that never comes
Time consumes everything
I’m holding on to what I have
It’s never enough
The love is lost
The love is lost
A noise in the static washed away
An empty cry for help no longer calls to me
I’ll remember the day when death took your heart
And swayed you away
I’ll keep my feet on the ground
I will never forget you
And I will never forgive myself
Death
They should’ve taken me instead
I can’t imagine the pain
I hear them calling your name
In my dream
The love is lost
I toss and turn in the dead of night
Those last words we shared, I wish I could take them back
Free me from my fear
The end is drawing near
A noise in the static washed away
An empty cry for help no longer calls to me
I’ll remember the day when death took your heart
And swayed you away
I’ll keep my feet on the ground
I will never forget you
And I will never forgive myself
I will remember the day
When death took your heart
And swayed you away
I’ll never forget
I’ll never forget
I could feel the sour taste of regret
I lay awake every goddamn night

MASK OV LIES
I was too young to understand
What you said never made any sense to me
Being caught in this mess
Two became one by force not reason
I waited for a better day
The darkness comes for me
This isn’t who I am
I need to breathe again
Don’t want to suffocate
I wore the same mask for years on end
Kept it to myself
Tired of letting this slip, how could you be so selfish
One act of selflessness could save this mess
You are nothing to me
Force my hand to suffocate the darkness
Weighed down to the deep of the world
Water, fills my lungs
Sink beyond the dark
Take it, take it to heart
Please tell me father
Can I save myself
Like you saved yourself from raising your daughter
I tried to push it forward
I tried to make it work
You never pulled any strings
For all the days that you missed
She never understood your ways
She was too young to understand your disgrace
Is this what you want
Is this the family you say that you love
Force my hand to suffocate the darkness
Weighed down to the deep of the world
Water, fills my lungs
Sink beyond the dark
Take it, take it to heart
Father, is this what you wanted
Is this what you meant by love
I will hold you to your name
For what you became to me
Monster
A path consumed by your hate
There is no light to guide your way
Would you ever rue the day
Watch how it all turn to grey
Those tears in my eyes
They speak of where we are and where we’ve been
I will hold you to your name
You’ve become what I fear the most
Monster, monster

COWARDS TONGUE
You stole existence
While I sat idly by your side
The light shines bright on you casting a shadow long
That’s where you'd find me
Hiding deep, distraught
But now I crawl out of my hole to get what’s due
There is no room for you now in this world I design
The odd piece was you all along
Time to right what is wrong
I kept the name off my tongue
The taste was overwhelming
But now it sounds so sweet
And feels like justice
Revenge, let me sing it to you
Another song for the fallen
But the first for me
Vengeance, sing with me
Sweet melody
Born with the heart of a coward
Your final song has yet been sung
I submit again
Then you see me and you'll feel it creeping in
Then the one time I win
All this time I never did you any wrong
Why did it come to this
But now we're here so sing my song
I wish it felt wrong
But inspiration, admiration
Takes me over for the first time
Now I take from you what you made me lose
Lay you down to rest, the deed is done
But now the blood is chilling
Tempers fading
Trembling clarity sets in
I can’t bleed anymore
The wounds are all dry
I can’t breathe
The ashes of fires long faded, they fill my lungs
And I may be a coward
But you won’t go alone
Theres still half of a bone in my body
So here I go
What a bitter end
For a life of discontent
I couldn’t do it right, not even do it wrong
We couldn’t live as equals
But maybe die like ones
One final song

FROM SOOT
There is nothing left for me
The body filled with grief
I wish I could start again
To feel something else than shame
Just close my eyes, just close my eyes
Secluded from the pain
It left me without control
Without control
I never wanted to burn my home
Awoken by the flames
They will swallow me whole
I have written that letter to many fucking times
It’s all just empty lies
It’s all, it’s all just in my mind
Tore myself apart
Just let it die, let it die
It won’t feel the same without letting go
This can’t be what I am
I was too blind to see it
Another life lost to this hell
(I never wanted to be the one in the end)
Pacing in the cube of regret
How could it come to this
Every day is just the same
Just waiting for the end
Waiting for the end
Solitary, confined
I am defined
I’m broken enough to lose my skin
Fallen into a depression
At the start of my regression
Just like I did in my dream
Screaming at the light as it blocked my sight
Why would I fight it, why would I fight
It won’t feel the same without letting go
This can’t be what I am
I was too blind to see it
Another life lost to this hell
(I never wanted to be the one in the end)
I will rise from these ashes
This rebirth is not for me
Don’t ever feel any shame
You’ll always have someone to blame
I never wanted to feel at home
At best I just want to rest
I will remember the day
When it all burned away
A heart of soot will never rot
A heart of soot will never rot

CURSED EARTH
My body will turn to dust
I’ll carve my unspoken words
Upon the infinite curtain
I can feel the flow of emptiness
Let me live through the endless spiral
A torment slowly tearing through my flesh
Let me grasp for my last breath
For those forsaken
Engulfed by the fire
What do I feel inside
What do I feel
What do I feel inside
What do I feel
Set me free
I beg myself to forget about the guilt I trap inside of me
(What do I feel inside)
Please burn it out (What do I feel)
Please burn it out
I’m not scared
I’ll put the flame to a frozen heart
Break or melt
(Let this be the end)
Let this be the end (The end of it all)
The end of it all
Deep within
It’s there
Gnawing at my soul
Would I leave my shame
And take away all their pain
Stay away from this place
This is one I could never erase
I have to follow the water
That will carry my soul
Through the current
Into the abyss
Feel the burning coal
How could it come to this
I wither away, wither away
What do I feel inside
What do I feel
Set me free
I beg myself to forget about the guilt I trap inside of me
(What do I feel inside)
Please burn it out (What do I feel)
Please burn it out
I’m not scared
I’ll put the flame to a frozen heart
Break or melt
(Let this be the end)
Let this be the end (The end of it all)
The end of it all
Black smoke
Fill my lungs
Fill my lungs
Ignite the fire
That will burn my body
End the noise that once was my voice
Come to me
Silence
I’ll give you my all
That silence will ignite the fire
I will carve my unspoken words
I will live on through the silence
Curse the earth
For all that it’s worth
Scattered below
A tale of woe
Curse the earth
For all that it’s worth
Scattered below
A tale of woe

TRAUMA
I find myself here again
There was never a last time
You just kept shoving me deeper into your hate
Have you written my fate with the help of the hand of death
Why can’t you accept my heart
Why could you never love me from the start
You should be proud
I’ve followed every footstep you taught in your life
Clinging to remorse
How far will this go before it gets worse
You’re not a hero
I feel the scent of disgust
How can you live with yourself
You hurt more than you loved
And I screamed for help
Dwelled in this hell for too long
What can I hope for that’s not already gone
I don’t know myself but I recognize this trauma
You can never redeem yourself
Let me out of this nightmare
In the dark of the night
A form of hate takes its disguise
A shadow born from within
Heed the call of your father
Aligned my soul to his will
I want to feel that I am alive
But inside, it’s hopeless
I know it resides in me
Your blood flow in my veins
Like father
Like son
Like father
Could you ever look back
Feel the failure in your mistakes
You are a fucking disgrace
Not just to me but to everyone else
In the dark of the night
A form of hate takes its disguise
A shadow born from within
To say this is your legacy
Is this how you want it to go
How would you know when you’re consumed by this mess
You’re looking at the world through a broken lens
This is anguish
This is trauma
Anguish
Trauma
Look at the world through me
This is anguish
This is trauma
You will see the beginning of the end
I will never forget what you did
This is anguish
This is trauma
