The Moth Song 04:36
lyrics

With pockets full of pictures Haunted echoes of grey This noose, it tightens slowly It’s more than I can take Burning Chemical React Visceral   Quietly, Let it cut through And if you’re carrying curses burn them If your skeletons crowd then break them, then break them So see me change, expand, and breathe in life if you can So see me change, expand, and breathe in life if you can If you can And in the dark when I see sparks illuminate the way Burning Chemical React Visceral   Quietly, Let it cut through Quietly, Let it cut through And if you’re carrying curses burn them If your skeletons crowd then break them, then break them, then break them So see me change, expand, and breathe in life if you can So see me change, expand, and breathe in life if you can If you can If you’re carrying curses If your skeletons crowd If you’re carrying curses If your skeletons crowd Are you carrying curses? Are your skeletons crowding you? Are you carrying curses? Are your skeletons crowding you? And if you’re carrying curses burn them If your skeletons crowd then break them, then break them, then break them

Epitaph 03:44

Breaking off this Bind on my wrists So I survived it’s just a sentiment, indifferent Your arrival makes no difference I’m always in the distance Reaching out for shadows lost   Here’s the unveiling the lifeblood is changing You stand and suffer with me Feel my convection My crying connection You stand and suffer with me Suffer with me Suffer, Suffer, Suffer   I’m unwrapping, warped and cracking A motion that will make you sick and strange, a forced exchange You can hear all of the secrets that clamber to be In your skin, in your eyes Dulling you mind   Here’s the unveiling the lifeblood is changing You stand and suffer with me Feel my convection My crying connection You stand and suffer with me   Always in the distance Reach for shadows lost She who had the last laugh Read the epitaph Always in the distance Reach for shadows lost He who had the last laugh Read the epitaph

The Sick and the Damned 03:45
lyrics

I breathe for you And I bleed for I bleed for you And I breathe for Think of every step I walked Think of every drop of blood I’ve tasted Dream up every image I warped Dream of every shadow I’ve chased and brought to...   As loud as the sky, intense as the sun I breathe for you and I bleed for you, Screaming like night, splintered like dreams I bleed for you and I breathe for you   Why are we colliding now? Why are we so sick of all? Of all I’ve done to bring the tides to bear? Bearing all the crosses Dragged over and over and over and over and over As loud as the sky, intense as the sun I breathe for you and I bleed for you, Screaming like night, splintered like dreams I bleed for you and I breathe for you I breathe for you and I bleed for you I bleed for you and I breathe for It feels like I’m breathing in fire and glass And I would hold my breath But the moment won’t pass I Breathe I Breathe I Bleed for you   over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over (Think of every step I’ve walked, think of every drop of blood I’ve tasted) (I breathe for you and I bleed for you) Think of every step I’ve walked, think of every drop of blood I’ve tasted (I breathe for you and I bleed for you)  As loud as the sky intense as the sun I breathe for you and I bleed for you As dry as your heat As cold as these hands I bleed for you and I breathe for you

Lilith 04:41
lyrics

Dredging the furnace Of what’s left on my map Her hands are molten but She finds what’s intact Sell her my secrets now Brings more rapture than gold Held in this heartbeat ‘till these sighs grow old   She is a fire She is the sea She is crashing into me She is my blood She is my peace She is crashing into me Curses crawling she is my fight She is the torrent full of light; tell me all that I can be Crashing into me   True love is pushing Bursting into new life Made from this new earth and To stand by my side Step up and meet my eyes Don’t take my hand Take my life You are closer to this than I can... She is a fire She is the sea She is crashing into me She is my blood She is my peace She is crashing into me Curses crawling she is my fight She is the torrent full of light; tell me all that I can be Crashing into me She is a fire She is the sea She is crashing into me   If its elements, if its sacraments Dying, losing, changing, moving And these animals, ‘cause they won’t evolve Dying losing changing moving

Uprising 03:58
lyrics

urching into this Second black abyss Turns back on a whim Time to begin Drown all your powerful In a truth to hold Me? Just an open skull Just hysterical Fractured and pitiful, Tryna grab a hold Silent, never told Pulled in by the throat   Here where it snakes around Coils around the neck Here where the blood gutters Crowd round forgotten death Here where you stand alone In a wretched dream Try to blot out Hear me scream   We stand for nothing We feel too much Instead of holding Destroying it all All this will turn All of this will turn We stand for nothing We feel too much Instead of holding Destroying it all We stand for nothing We feel too much Instead of holding Destroying it all Suck on the chemical Churning in your throat Haunted by the ghost Of a better home? Lifeless no soul Don’t you want more? What could have been? Is it just a day dream? We stand for nothing We feel too much Instead of holding All this will turn All of this will turn We stand for nothing We feel too much Instead of holding Destroying it all We stand for nothing We feel too much Instead of holding Destroying it all We stand for nothing We feel too much We stand for nothing We feel too much We stand for nothing We feel too much We stand for nothing We feel too much We stand for nothing We feel too much We stand for nothing We feel too much

Am I standing in focus? Perceptions are blurred But I could rip up the concrete if you want me to Ravenous here, keep you close here I’m salivating for you I’m crucified just by your wake I am the tide that’s set to change I cut this open for you This given, misgiving Without a need to try I fall a slave for your sight Travel obsessive night I burn alive All of this I am, All of this I am, All of this I am, I am for you Ravenous here, keep you close here I’m salivating for you Are you face down in the rain Or are you broken again? I tried to keep you complete but you exploded apart   Ravenous here, keep you close here I’m salivating for you I’m crucified just by your wake I am the tide that’s set to change I cut this open for you This given, misgiving Without a need to try I fall a slave for your sight Travel obsessive night I burn alive All of this I am, All of this I am, All of this I am, I am for you I’m breaking I’m burning I’m pulled apart by wanting The breaking, the burning, I’m pulled apart by wanting I’m pulled apart by wanting The breaking, the burning, I’m pulled apart by wanting Break, Burn Pulled apart Break, Burn Pulled apart

Open Ocean 03:54
lyrics

My grip grows tired from years of hanging on An open ocean gasping off and on With slow eroding on Waves breaking me Like mountains, falling into the sea Ropes cutting in Rips skin from me Like giving up Tear this away from me From me, from me Tear this away from me, from me, from me   In all the return, in all of the fight In all of the thoughts that I can see A vision of grey, a life of delay A row of promises I can’t keep   I carry cares that repeat on and on Exhausting me with mistakes no forgiving here at all Like a broken heart Sinks into me You know I’m not who I used to be Time tearing in Its crushing me But you can’t take this away from me, from me, from me Take this away from me, from me, from me   In all the return, in all of the fight In all of the thoughts that I can see A vision of grey, a life of delay A row of promises I can’t keep   Promises I can’t keep Promises I can’t keep Promises I can’t keep Promises I can’t keep Promises I can’t keep

Black and Blue 03:46

I’m inside out like an animal Concise cut on the killing floor Drag me up to the hooks Let me hang ‘till my blood runs cold Chewing my fingers black and blue Trying to be closer to you Lost in a madness Scattered gone Trying to find my way back home   An empty mask hangs upon the wall I push it over my face and go Into the black where my sirens call And play the part they’ve been longing for ’Til my mask is worn Until my blood runs My blood runs cold Chewing my fingers black and blue Trying to be closer to you Lost in a madness Scattered gone Trying to find my way back home Way back home Way back home Way back home   Just a few more words, one or two things left to say, I wish things were different and I wish that I could stay. And as the curtains close, the ending of today, Its crawling craving so before I turn away Can I stay? Can I stay? Can I stay? Way back home

Asylum 03:47
lyrics

So if we swapped our sides Would you take any less or? Cutting or cold or would you show me mercy? What if my skull it cracks? No running no way back What if this fantasy reanimates me?   No asylum – hospital bed No forgiveness exists in my head And now your vision’s black No sight upon the track The damage is done Now hope Is gone And so it comes to pass A void that’s built to last Breathing broken abstract Hope is gone Hope is gone  Is this a catalyst? Confronting? Neurotic? Disaster, murder or a pain that’s shifting? What if it ricochets? If I won’t play the game? What if your masterpiece Tears hooks into you? No asylum – hospital bed No forgiveness exists in my head And now your vision’s black No sight upon the track The damage is done Now hope Is gone And so it comes to pass A void that’s built to last Breathing broken abstract Hope is gone Look at my face, distorted stained And every breath is a breaking point Look at my face, distorted stained And every breath is a breaking point Look at my face, distorted stained And every breath is a breaking point Look at my face, distorted stained And every breath is a breaking point And now your vision’s black No sight upon the track The damage is done Now hope Is gone And so it comes to pass A void that’s built to last Breathing broken abstract Hope is gone Look at my face, distorted stained And every breath is a breaking point

Last One Lost 04:51
lyrics

I step one foot off, and I’m Changing the world that I began As I try all time stops then... The water is deep, black, cold and I... Fascinating as my contorting confusing stare Is pushing back on me Smashed upon the surface gleaming   They all sang for this...they all sang for... And only crashing waves will write a song for you Only breaking white will ever speak your truth Roll under and Roll over me Roll under and Roll over me Roll under and Roll over me   As my back comes crooked from Defacing this thing that I’ve become My final throws; what have I done? A selfish, falling, fading This eroding, flesh and bone, mass of decay Is tearing ten feet out Make sure there’s no hope of holding on They all sang for this...they all sang for... They all sang for this...they all sang for... And only crashing waves will write a song for you Only breaking white will ever speak your truth Roll under and Roll over me Roll under and Roll over me I swear all my pain will stop, when this broken body drops I swear all my pain will stop, when this broken body drops I swear all my pain will stop, when this broken body drops And only crashing waves And only breaking white And only crashing waves And only breaking white will And only crashing waves will write a song for you Only breaking white will ever speak your truth Roll under and Roll over me Roll under and Roll over me Roll under Roll over Roll under Roll over me Roll under all for me
