Live.Breathe.Decay.

The fear of moving forward
will stagnate even the best
to those left behind it seems like life is standing still
may you find little doses of comfort lying within
speak in tongue and if you must pray
rest assured that too will fade
The fear of moving forward
will stagnate even the best
to those left behind it seems like life is standing still
How many times
Have you sat on the edge,
Reflecting on open air
with life comes pain
these walls don't breathe anymore
they just decay
to find comfort in complacency is no way to live
Hell is the transition you found
either speak out and live
or shut the fuck up and drown
this life you chose will slowly turn to dust
you'll only find yourself in another exodus
there's tension in the air
and this weight's become too much to bear
don't refuse to hold your head high in the wake of those who never cared
live breathe decay
your condition only gets worse as the night draws closer
no light no substance just you and i
you tremble over words you spoke
this life you chose will slowly turn to dust
you'll only find yourself in another exodus
there's tension in the air
and this weight's become too much to bear
don't refuse to hold your head high in the wake of those who never cared
the pain you feel is not unknown
breathe in
to move on is to grow
subtle steps in the wrong direction
are incorrect and show in reflection
who do you think you are

Purification
04:41

I can feel the devil residing in this place,
looking in the mirror only reveals his face
Reject your humanity
reject your faith
He tells me he knows who i am
And how i will break
This heavy silence burdens my home,
I'm a man of solitude, yet I will never be alone.
The act of purification is a lie, you cannot restore that which has already died
lightning strikes at an iridescent tone
I can feel the devil in my bones
The air seems much more shallow around me
their eyes shift to black
I refuse to ever go back
I can feel the devil in my bones
I will reclaim what you have taken from me
Purification is a lie
I've seen it all before
Succumbing to the will of another
When I walk out
Into the light
if only for a moment
i began to see
lift these scales from my eyes so this blind man can see
in any moment i'll find redemption; salvation is near
salvation is near
forever ill remember
throw my hands to the suns light, everyday brings a new life
purification is a lie

Hiraeth
03:55

Just for you i'll watch the setting sun
If you promise to be there at dawn
For years I've struggled to find my composure
lost sight of everything
I'm begging for closure
I still shout your name from every rooftop
but you never show
how can I call this place my home
you never show (never show)
You were never real
That's just how I feel
You were never real
that's just how I feel as I reach for the empty space
and there's nothing in your place
This isn't letting go
This is falling apart
How did we come this far
When you never played your part
How can i say this
without breaking apart
I've lost so much I once held close
I cant breathe in a life of my own
intense pain brings on new focus
You were never real
that's just how I feel as I reach for the empty space
and there's nothing to replace
Hiraeth I scream at the top of my lungs
This was my home
that barren spot is where your portrait once hung
after all these years I will always care
my mind shows signs of deterioration
I will always come back to you (back to you)
You were never real
that's just how I feel as I reach toward the empty space
there's nothing in your place

Drought

Drought
So sickening are the walls that never breathe,
lined with the portraits framed of your disease
I let you walk all over me
cancel the wake and spit on my grave
the gospel you spoke was not your way to grieve
You are the disease
stay the fuck away from me
beggars and liars will not crush my empire
I've seen this all before
begging and pleading torrential downpour
I've seen you stand on top of the world
With hands shaking nothing is real
watching those you love caught in the storms below
you watched them drown as they begged for the rain to slow
Never forgive that which haunts your past
omens are revealed in the wake of recklessness
You are but a reflection of those you walk on
those you spite are dead and gone
Do you think you can believe
when water fills your airway
and you struggle to breathe
You are only what you stand for
Self loathing and desperation in the midst of this chaotic place
you have everything you wanted so dont speak to me with that bitter taste
A tongue of silver oxidizing in animosity
Your fists of iron retire under your grand atrocity
You are the siren living in the sea of dire desire
Your ample waters leave you trapped in the fissure
A watery grave surrounded by fire
It's clear to me what you'll never show
You'll be forgotten while you're rotting in the undertow

This isn't the first time i've screamed at you
time and time again you never follow through
left by the roadside
Disengage from what you once thought was true
Time and time again i never could fix you
Cut yourself from only the finest stone
you and I both know we started down the same road
ain't that a bitch
renounce yourself again
this is not a trend only the weak willed fear the end
We've dragged this out for far too long
Drop the fucking attitude and admit you were wrong
I know you think of those you left down in their luck
there may be just a hint of a heart beat, yet yours is stuck
in self depravation
full sensory overload
you never stood a chance
you never saw it coming
you are not omnipotent
False idol
Ill knock you off that pedestal
to show you i'm no fool
fuck you
Left by the roadside you don't need anything or anyone (anyone)
get fucked
