Heat Death

I saw the pieces fall from heaven
Each one a shimmer in your eye.
I have just one hope,
The ice takes us both.
A moment too pure to ever happen,
Nothing could ever be this real.
I have just one hope,
The ice takes us both.
I hope the ice takes us.
As distance spreads into our veins
It takes too much strength too stay the same.
A whisper sent, but never meant
To take hold the way you knew it would.

Let This World Burn
02:47
|
|
||
They speak in tongues, we speak in spite
Of a careless future, a dark night.
I would let this whole world burn just to waste my time with you.
No one knows when it’s over, that means there’s no time to lose.
A burning tongue, a desperate plea
To let it all go. Come die with me.
I would let this whole world burn just to waste my time with you.
No one knows when it’s over, that means there’s no time to lose.
Moving soil may mix our bones ensuring we will never rot alone.
I would let this whole world burn just to waste my time with you.
No one knows when it’s over, that means there’s no time to lose.

Like a Shadow
03:23
|
|
||
A feeling of discontent in all my words.
A lack of conviction in my waking life.
I feel it follow like a shadow.
I feel it slowly pull me under.
Death will only take a soul when the tide rolls in.
A haunting figure forever on the shore.
I feel it follow like a shadow.
I feel it slowly pull me under.
I feel it follow like a shadow.
I am begging you to add another stone.
No more will I wake from haunted dreams, or anything.
A single word beyond my tongue that I will never speak again.

Stolen From Heaven
02:59
|
|

Please say to me that you’ve wanted this for so long,
Don’t think I’ll wait any more.
Straight to the bone, cut with precision and hone
Your craft in marrow and blood.
You had me wrapped around your fingers
When your hands were wrapped around my throat.
You had me wrapped around your fingers,
But now that they’re gone, I just choke.
Burn every church and every place of worship,
They are all false before you.
Leave, leave nothing but ash as a reminder,
A pitiful taste in my mouth.
You had me wrapped around your fingers
When your hands were wrapped around my throat.
You had me wrapped around your fingers,
But now that they’re gone, I just choke.
When will I be returned to the arms that held me?
I feel you’ve been gone for so long.
Never to be complete without your soul twisted
In a most merciful bond.
It’s hard to breathe without your air.
A single piece now stolen from heaven,
Only you would dare.

Runaway
04:37
|
|
||
I found it in you where flowers softly bloom.
No one ever knows just how it starts,
Keep it close and over your heart.
No one ever knows just how it’ll end,
But I do.
You’ll run away,
You runaway,
You run away,
You do.
Now I’m torn in two, bleeding a violent hue.
No one ever knows just how it starts,
Keep it close and over your heart.
No one ever knows just how it’ll end,
But I do.
You’ll run away,
You runaway,
You run away,
You do.
Don’t think about it honey,
I’m right at home beneath your bones.
Don’t think about it honey,
I could be the last ghost that you know.
I’m right at home beneath your bones.

Awaits
04:00
|
|
||
The snow on the harbor
The black night, dark water
A question, unanswered
A heartbeat, unassured
The streetlights all guiding
Through brick paths, unwinding.
Your hand out, I followed
Undoes all my sorrow.
Is this how it’s supposed to feel?
A dull knife now cutting
Ribbons of memory.
A look that you gave me
Will it haunt or set free?
Is this how it’s supposed to feel?
This is how it’s supposed to feel.
Feels like a window breaking,
Footsteps over shards of glass.
Everything inside for taking,
If it’s good, it will never last.
But you never gave me a choice in this anyways.
I was yours from the very first.
Feels when a knife breaks skin
Renders flesh from bone.
A hollow wind sweeping through a sea
Of old foreclosed homes.
But you never gave me a choice in this anyways.
I was yours from the very first.
What awaits us now?
