Lyrics:

The night is heavy
The silence is deep
I whisper a promise
To carry, to keep

Each morning I wonder
If this is the last
The shadows are waiting
To bury the past

But fragments of duty
Still hold me in place
The faintest of reasons
The thinnest of grace

Tying threads, one by one
Fragile lines that pull me on
Just enough to face the dawn
Tying threads, until it’s gone

A word I once promised
A hand I must hold
A vow to a memory
That never grows old

They seem so fragile
Yet they will not break
The threads of survival
That sorrow can’t take

Tying threads, one by one
Fragile lines that pull me on
Just enough to face the dawn
Tying threads, until it’s gone

Not for glory, not for flame
Not for honor, not for fame
But for a whisper, soft and true
I tie these threads, for me, for you

Tying threads, one by one
Fragile lines that pull me on
Just enough to face the dawn
Tying threads, until it’s gone

The night is heavy
But still I remain
Tying threads together
Through sorrow and pain

Tying Threads

Lyrics:

I watched you fall through fractured light
A whispered ghost in the endless night
Fragile wings that never knew
A touch that stayed, a hand that grew

Shadows shaped the way I learned to feel
Cold hands taught me love was steel
Every heartbeat echoed wrong
Every lullaby, a silent song

Crushed wings, I bleed in the dark
Searching for warmth in a hollow heart
Raised to think love was absence, not flame
Now I see my reflection bears your name

I stitched my sorrow into broken lines
Tracing the scars that time defines
A butterfly trapped beneath the glass
Moments of beauty fading fast

The sky I dreamt of was always grey
Tenderness taken, then thrown away
I kiss the void, I whisper your sin
Learning that love can’t live within

Crushed wings, I bleed in the dark
Searching for warmth in a hollow heart
Raised to think love was absence, not flame
Now I see my reflection bears your name

I chase the shadows where you once flew
A ghost of affection, a hue I never knew
And the mirrors lie, but I know the sting
I was made to bleed, yet still I sing

Crushed wings, I rise from the ache
Learning that sorrow is all I can take
But even in broken, I feel the spark
A flicker of love in a world so stark

Wings

Lyrics:

The gears are turning
In silence they grind
A heart of iron
That’s left me behind

I built this prison
With circuits of steel
A hollow engine
That cannot feel

The echoes haunt me
In chambers of stone
A soulless body
That stands alone

Break the machine
Tear out the core
Shatter the silence
I can’t bear anymore
Break the machine
Set the fire alight
If I don’t feel now
I’ll fade into night

A voice remembered
Still calls in the dark
But my hands are trembling
Against the spark

Wires of reason
Bind tighter each day
But love is the hammer
That won’t go away

Break the machine
Tear out the core
Shatter the silence
I can’t bear anymore
Break the machine
Set the fire alight
If I don’t feel now
I’ll fade into night

Cold steel heartbeat
Frozen design
I long to be broken
To claim what was mine
No angel, no savior
Will open this door
I must be the weapon
To feel once more

Break the machine
Tear out the core
Shatter the silence
I can’t bear anymore
Break the machine
Set the fire alight
If I don’t feel now
I’ll fade into night

The gears are broken
The silence undone
At last I am human
At last I am one

Break the Machine

Lyrics:

I rise with the hum of fluorescent light
Another day in the same gray fight
Hands moving, heart standing still
Filling the void with iron will

I learned to work, I learned to obey
Hiding from shadows that never sway
Ticking clocks replace a heartbeat’s cry
Hours bleed, yet I don’t ask why

I am the machine of one
Grinding through life till it’s all undone
Fear of silence keeps me alive
In the hum of labor, I survive

Memories fade in the office glow
Dreams discarded where I don’t go
Tasks pile higher than the pain inside
A fortress built where no one can hide

I am the machine of one
Grinding through life till it’s all undone
Fear of silence keeps me alive
In the hum of labor, I survive

If I stop, the emptiness will scream
Ghosts of longing pierce the seam
But in this clockwork, I find my skin
A hollow victory, a life I spin

I am the machine of one
No love, no loss, no rising sun
Yet in the silence after the grind
I glimpse the soul I left behind

Machine of One

Lyrics:

Shadows stretch longer
In silence I breathe
The face in the mirror
No longer believes

I was once fragile
A vessel of light
But scars became armor
In the endless night

Each wound a lesson
Each loss a disguise
Now steel fills the spaces
Behind my eyes

Metamorph, I change, I fall
I don’t know this self at all
Metamorph, I break, I rise
But fear the frost behind my eyes

The warmth is fading
I feel it decay
A stranger is forming
And pushing away

If I turn to silence
And bury the flame
Will anyone know me
Or call my name?

Metamorph, I change, I fall
I don’t know this self at all
Metamorph, I break, I rise
But fear the frost behind my eyes

I am not the same
But I cannot return
To the child of fire
Whose heart would burn

If the cost of survival
Is to turn to stone
Will I stand triumphant
Or die alone?

Metamorph, I change, I fall
I don’t know this self at all
Metamorph, I break, I rise
But fear the frost behind my eyes

Metamorph, I fade, I find
A shadow carved from fractured time
The last of the warmth has gone away
But still I breathe into the gray

Metamorph

Lyrics:

I hear the cries beneath the stone
The broken voices, the ones disowned
Shadows laugh at fragile skin
Taking joy in the ruin within

I walked through fire, I bore their weight
Carried the wounds that they create
But every scar becomes a blade
And in my chest, a war is made

Ashes will fall on the wicked and cruel
Their kingdom of torment becomes their tomb
Justice burns brighter than their delight
The flames of vengeance will light the night

I see the hunters who call it sport
Breaking the gentle for their retort
But every scream they forced to bloom
Will echo back, a searing doom

Ashes will fall on the wicked and cruel
Their kingdom of torment becomes their tomb
Justice burns brighter than their delight
The flames of vengeance will light the night

No mercy left, no shadows to hide
The fire consumes from the hollow inside
Every sin they carved in stone
Will be the pyre they call their own

Ashes remain where tyrants stood
A silent requiem for the misunderstood
The scales are burning, the night is mine
Vengeance eternal, cold, divine

No mercy left, no shadows to hide
The fire consumes from the hollow inside
Every sin they carved in stone
Will be the pyre they call their own

Ashes of the Wicked

Lyrics:

Circles carved in shadowed ground
Every step, I’m still bound
Faces change, but the eyes remain
A cycle written in endless pain

I open doors, I let them in
The smile, the touch, the fragile skin
But every warmth becomes a chain
A lesson I forget again

I open doors, I let them in
The smile, the touch, the fragile skin
But every warmth becomes a chain
A lesson I forget again

Round and round, the wheel still turns
Ash to ash, and fire burns
Karmic ties I cannot sever
Toxic bonds, repeating forever

A thousand hands, the same embrace
The mask is different, but not the face
The promise spoken fades to dust
The wheel demands, the wheel I trust

Round and round, the wheel still turns
Ash to ash, and fire burns
Karmic ties I cannot sever
Toxic bonds, repeating forever

Round and round, the wheel still turns
Ash to ash, and fire burns
Karmic ties I cannot sever
Toxic bonds, repeating forever

Spiraling upward, falling low
I reap the seeds I didn’t sow
Each soul I meet, the thread entwines
Binding my heart in endless lines

Round and round, the wheel still turns
Ash to ash, and fire burns
Karmic ties I cannot sever
Toxic bonds, repeating forever

The wheel turns on, it always will
And I remain, broken still

The Wheel that Breaks Me

Lyrics:

Stone walls breathe with a choking sound
Cold hands pressing, I can’t look down
The night above is a distant flame
But every climb feels just the same

My voice dissolves in the hollow dark
No answer comes, no guiding spark
The rope is frayed, the stones are slick
Each motion falters, each hold won’t stick

At the bottom I remain, in this water-stained tomb
Every struggle to ascend becomes another wound
But still I reach, though the walls confine
For upwards is the only line

The weight of silence, crushing, near
The echo of every wasted year
I taste the rust, I swallow stone
This grave of mine, I climb alone

At the bottom I remain, in this water-stained tomb
Every struggle to ascend becomes another wound
But still I reach, though the walls confine
For upwards is the only line

My nails are blood, my skin is torn
Yet something stirs where hope was worn
A single step, a fractured breath
A war between despair and death

At the bottom I remain, but I will not drown
I will claw against the stone until it breaks down
No prison eternal, no fate defined
I bleed upwards against the line

At the bottom, I still rise.

The Well

Lyrics:

I spoke in whispers, I spoke in fire
Foretold the fall, the funeral pyre
But every warning turned to dust
They called it fear, they called it rust

I saw the cracks in the endless sky
The stars that dimmed before they died
I named the storms before they came
Yet all they heard was hollow blame

I am the voice they never believe
The shadow of truth they cannot receive
The world will burn, the heavens will fall
And none will listen, none at all

Each time I warned, they turned away
Called me broken, begged I stay
But silence builds the gallows high
And now the end consumes the sky

I am the voice they never believe
The shadow of truth they cannot receive
The world will burn, the heavens will fall
And none will listen, none at all

Each time I warned, they turned away
Called me broken, begged I stay
But silence builds the gallows high
And now the end consumes the sky

The oceans rise, the fire rains
I feel the earth split with its chains
But every scream will prove me true
When no one’s left to hear it too

I warned you all… I warned you all.
I warned you all.

The Last Prophet

Lyrics:

The years were dust upon my hands
Each night I carved from shifting sands
A secret flame, too small to see
But still it burned inside of me

The world moved on, it never knew
The endless hours, the trials I drew
Through sleepless dark, through shadows deep
I held the vision I must keep

At last the dawn has heard my name
The spark I nursed becomes a flame
Though none may see, or understand
I hold the universe in my hand

At last the dawn has heard my name
The spark I nursed becomes a flame
Though none may see, or understand
I hold the universe in my hand

The silence taught me how to stay
To give a lifetime all away
And though the world will not recall
I found my truth, I gave my all

At last the dawn has heard my name
The spark I nursed becomes a flame
Though none may see, or understand
I hold the universe in my hand

The weight of years dissolves tonight
The endless dark gives way to light
A quiet triumph, no one sees
But in my soul, eternity

At last the dawn has heard my name
The spark I nursed becomes a flame
Though none may see, or understand
I hold the universe in my hand

The light I carried… forever mine.

The Light I Carried

Lyrics:

I stumbled once, I lost my way
The job was gone, the rent to pay
I cursed the weight, I cursed the fall
But something waited through it all

The doors I knocked on never stayed
The friends I trusted turned away
Each failure felt like rusted chains
Yet led me out into the rain

The turn in the road I thought was the end
Became the start of a fire within
What I called ruin was clearing ground
A place for the life I finally found

The heartbreak that I thought would stay
Brought strangers near along the way
The silence that I feared as loss
Became the bridge I had to cross

The turn in the road I thought was the end
Became the start of a fire within
What I called ruin was clearing ground
A place for the life I finally found

The broken glass beneath my feet
Became a map, became the street
I walked through pain, I walked through night
And still the morning brought me light

The turn in the road I thought was the end
Became the start of a fire within
What I called ruin was clearing ground
A place for the life I finally found

I finally found… I finally found.

At Road's Turn

Lyrics:

I searched the heavens for a sign
A lantern lost, a spark divine
I traced the echoes in the stone
But none could reach, none could stand

A river split, a hidden stream
A garden waiting in the dream
A thousand masks dissolved to clay
The truth beneath would not decay

I am the fire, I am the flame
No need for shadows to know my name
The love I sought was sown in stone
A mirror of stars, a heart of my own

The branches broke, the roots held fast
The storm had passed, the night at last
A secret path the silence showed
The seed was mine, the self I owed

I am the fire, I am the flame
No need for shadows to know my name
The love I sought was sown in stone
A mirror of stars, a heart of my own

No crown above, no voice to bind
The constellation lives inside
Through shifting tides, through skies unknown
I found the world that was my own

I am the fire, I am the flame
No need for shadows to know my name
The love I sought was sown in stone
A mirror of stars, a heart of my own

The Hollow

Lyrics:

A single light adrift in black
I feel its gaze, I can’t turn back
It sways within an endless sea
It breathes in silence, waits for me

A thousand suns behind its teeth
Worlds collapse, their fire beneath
It hums a song no tongue can say
It draws the living worlds away

Lantern in the void, it beckons near
A maw beyond the edge of fear
I see the lure, I know the snare
Yet still I crawl, yet still I stare

Its hunger draped in radiant flame
A crown of ash, an unmarked name
The closer I am pulled inside
The less of me is left to hide

Lantern in the void, it beckons near
A maw beyond the edge of fear
I see the lure, I know the snare
Yet still I crawl, yet still I stare

Lantern in the void, it beckons near
A maw beyond the edge of fear
I see the lure, I know the snare
Yet still I crawl, yet still I stare

It does not see, it does not feel
It is the wound that will not heal
A mouth that births the stars anew
And I am nothing passing through

It does not see, it does not feel
It is the wound that will not heal
A mouth that births the stars anew
And I am nothing passing through

Lantern in the void, it beckons near
A maw beyond the edge of fear
I see the lure, I know the snare
Yet still I crawl...

Lantern in the void, it beckons near
A maw beyond the edge of fear
I see the lure, I know the snare
And still I go, still I despair

Lantern in the Void

Lyrics:

Within my chamber, silken, fine
A silent encounter, your eyes on mine
Thought yourself better, dripping vain
Myself your hatred, my opiate, your pain

The paths were chosen, tried, true
They caged you in, my prison, you
To walk a line, to reject thought
I'll seize what's mine, a life I sought

Do not guide this blackest sheep
I'm not so fragile, and far from weak
A fire rages behind my eyes
The fury burning, where ego dies
You see my hunger, fear its depths
I'll see it sated, nothing less

The path I've walked, these seeds I've sown
The burning footsteps, they're all my own
The mirror shatters, the pieces fall
Each shattered edge reflects it all

The path I've walked, these seeds I've sown
The burning footsteps, they're all my own
The mirror shatters, the pieces fall
Each shattered edge reflects it all

The path I've walked, these seeds I've sown
The burning footsteps, they're all my own
The mirror shatters, the pieces fall
Each shattered edge reflects it all

Do not guide this blackest sheep
I'm not so fragile, and far from weak
A fire rages behind my eyes
The fury burning, where ego dies
You see my hunger, fear its depths
I'll see it sated, nothing less

Each new temptation, a faded line
Vanishing doubt, ecstasy mine
A loss in vapor, this clouded haze
The endless chase that fills my days

The path I've walked, these seeds I've sown
The burning footsteps, they're all my own
A fire rages behind my eyes
The fury burning, where ego dies
You see my hunger, fear its depths
I'll see it sated, nothing less
And nothing left…

And nothing left...

Cinder

Lyrics:

Faces in the dark, they call my name
Say they know me, to end this game
The more that things are sinking in
The more I abhor this newfound skin

These sins I’ve committed weren’t meant to be
How I had forgotten, the gallows for me
They speak in whispers, tell me it’s okay
How can I be, what can I say?

I see right through their smiling guise,
They speak no truth, tell only lies
These bloody hands are bound with lead
How can it be inside my head?

I close my mind, I cut them off
They ask me how I got so soft
I cannot answer, I never will
But in my mind the cracks do spill

I see right through their smiling guise,
They speak no truth, tell only lies
These bloody hands are bound with lead
How can it be inside my head?

They say they love me, hold me tight
This form of mine does not feel right
I see them cry, are those real tears?
How I’ve been gone, for months, for years

I see right through their smiling guise,
They speak no truth, tell only lies
These bloody hands are bound with lead
They wish me healed or wish me dead


Fracture

Lyrics:

My origins though they be cold,
They did not wait 'til I was old,
Your feelings toward me on your sleeve,
You wished me absent, wish I’d leave

A hollow heart seeking warmth,
Yet all I found was fear and scorn.
You wish me trampled, feelings low,
You did not care as long as I’d go.

And yet you blame me for my skin,
It birthed a hatred I feel within
My rage is channeled through my blade,
A monster whispered, a monster made

And yet you blame me for my skin,
It birthed a hatred I feel within
My rage is channeled through my blade,
A monster whispered, a monster made

My rage contained, an endless boil,
To find my place, an endless toil
And yet I knew just who to blame,
The absent father that bore my name

And yet you blame me for my skin,
It birthed a hatred I feel within
My rage is channeled through my blade,
A monster whispered, a monster made

I begin my search, spanned far and wide,
The tears I held in were never cried
Your absence gave me my endless scar
And in my heartbeat, there’s only war.

And yet you blame me for my skin,
It birthed a hatred I feel within
My rage is channeled through my blade,
A monster whispered, a monster made


Monster Made

Lyrics:

I’m scared to tell you, I want this to end
What you might do, a wound that won’t mend
What you might say, could be the one
The final thing that makes me done.

I want to reach, to grasp your hand
What you might say, I cannot stand
To end the doubt, to give certainty
That in your heart, there’s no love for me

These feelings within, break me again and again
I can’t stand any more, I want them to end
It calls to me, my friend the blade
And telling you this, the last mistake to be made

The child within wants to run to your arms,
This power of yours, the greatest of harms
I’ve given everything from this empty well
This way I’ve lived, my personal hell

Hold me close, tell me it’s alright
That alone could make me face this fight
But then I must tell you, my greatest of fears
That you’ll lose the message, my voice crushed by tears

These feelings within, break me again and again
I can’t stand any more, I want them to end
It calls to me, my friend the blade
And telling you this, the last mistake to be made

Hold me close, tell me it’s alright
That alone could make me face this fight
But then I must tell you, my greatest of fears
That you’ll lose the message, my voice crushed by tears

These feelings within, break me again and again
I can’t stand any more, I want them to end
It calls to me, my friend the blade
And telling you this, the last mistake to be made

Don’t let me fall…

Please… stay.


Confession

Lyrics:

I wait for words that never come
The silence cuts, it leaves me numb
A tether stretched, a hollow thread
A phantom voice inside my head

You only call when shadows fall
When you need hands to break your wall
But when I reach, there’s nothing there
An empty line, a vacant stare

Your silence grows, it eats my skin
A hunger freezing deep within
I thought you cared, I thought you’d stay
But you just take, then turn away

I fed the fire, I held the flame
But now it dies without your name
Each moment waiting chills me more
The frost seeps in, it locks the door

Your silence grows, it eats my skin
A hunger freezing deep within
I thought you cared, I thought you’d stay
But you just take, then turn away

The longer you’re gone, the colder it gets
The ice has set, the bond forgets
You think I’m yours, a voice on demand
But silence now is all I am

Your silence grows, it seals my veins
A frozen calm, no love remains
I thought you cared, I thought you’d stay
But now the ice has paved the way

Hollow Signal

Lyrics:

You leave me waiting in the dark
Each second tearing me apart
Your silence bleeds, it cuts my skin
The storm awakens deep within

You only call when you need more
Another hand to fight your war
I fed your hunger, drained my soul
You left me hollow, black and cold

Your silence is a blade, it carves me raw
A venom screaming through every flaw
You think I’m weak, you think I’ll stay
But I will make you choke one day

The longer you hide, the louder I burn
The deeper the cut, the sharper I turn
Your voice is poison, sweet with decay
I see your mask — I’ll tear it away

Your silence is a blade, it carves me raw
A venom screaming through every flaw
You think I’m weak, you think I’ll stay
But I will make you choke one day

Every hour, every lie
Stitches rip, the wounds don’t die
I was your shadow, I was your shield
Now you’ll be crushed by what you concealed

Your silence is a blade, it carves me raw
But now I rise, I break your law
You thought me nothing, thought I’d obey
But I am wrath — you’ll learn today

Silence is a Blade

Lyrics:

They pressed the cinders with their heel
The last red glow refused to heal
Smoke was silence in my lungs
They ground the sparks, they bit my tongue

I swallowed embers, choking heat
The taste of iron, dust, defeat
Each shout was buried, starved of air
A blackened scar, but nothing there

Stamping out the flame inside
Ash is all I’ve left to hide
Skin is pale, my breath expires
A body cold, without the fire

The coals collapsed beneath their weight
The hands that smothered sealed my fate
No blaze to guard, no light to see
Just hollow smoke consuming me

Stamping out the flame inside
Ash is all I’ve left to hide
Skin is pale, my breath expires
A body cold, without the fire

Burnt tongue, cracked teeth, choking haze
I begged for flame, they gave me graves
The smoke has filled my ribs, my veins
No anger left, no self remains

Stamping out the flame inside
Ash is all I’ve left to hide
Skin is pale, my breath expires
A body cold, without the fire

Ash Without Flame

Lyrics:

I fell into a mouth of stone
The air was scales, the dark my home
Their hissing curled around my bones
A choir of teeth, a godless throne

The first one bit, I tasted rust
A fever bloomed, a skin of dust
The second coiled around my lungs
I learned to breathe with borrowed tongues

Each strike erased a line of me
Each fang unstitched my history
My hands grew cold, my veins grew thin
The serpent song beneath my skin

In the pit, I learned their prayer
Venom writes what truth won’t dare
Every scar a scripture, deep
Every wound a vow I keep

I was human once, with open eyes
But the bite remakes, the venom lies
I shed my skin, my warmth undone
The pit has made me serpent-born

The third one whispered through my jaw
It carved me new, it rewrote law
My teeth grew sharp, my gaze grew blind
To pity’s weight, to mercy’s kind

A coil around the heart I kept
It squeezed until no pulses wept
Now every breath a warning sound
A rattle deep, a hunger crowned

In the pit, I learned their hymn
Cold devotion, shedding skin
Every fang a page I turn
Every loss a way to burn

I was human once, with tender hands
But the bite consumes, the venom brands
I shed my name, my voice is gone
The pit has made me serpent-born

Do not touch me, I will bite
I am hunger, I am night
Once a child with blood and breath
Now a coil, a saint of death

I was human once, but no more now
Venom taught me, showed me how
To turn my scars into a crown
The pit remade, the serpent found

The Pit

Lyrics:

Your lullabies were whispered stone,
A quiet carved from wounds unknown.
You held me close, but never near,
Fed me calm, but never fear.

You stitched my mouth with threads of grace,
Taught me love had no soft place.
Your hands were gentle, firm, and still,
But never reached to show the will.

I learned to smile, to hide the ache,
To bow before the rules you’d make.
The more I cried, the less you stayed,
A shadow mother, self-betrayed.

I was a mirror you could not face,
A child repeating your disgrace.
The wounds you bore, you passed to me,
An heirloom wrapped in secrecy.

You gave me silence dressed as care,
An empty gaze, a hollow prayer.
I held my breath so you would stay,
But love like that just fades away.

They broke your voice when you were small,
Taught you to answer with nothing at all.
So when my heart reached out to yours,
You locked the hinges, sealed the doors.

You called it strength to turn aside,
To cut your need, to kill the tide.
But silence is a sharpened knife,
And now it carves through all my life.

I am the echo of your scars,
A child still reaching through the bars.
The curse you carried, blind, unseen,
Now lives in me, where you have been.

You gave me silence dressed as care,
An empty gaze, a hollow prayer.
I held my breath so you would stay,
But love like that just fades away.

I know you learned it, not your fault,
Your love was chained in someone else’s vault.
But still the child inside of me,
Cries for what will never be.

You gave me silence dressed as care,
But silence leaves the cupboard bare.
I begged for fire, I begged for rain,
But you could only give me pain.

The chain remains, the chain remains.

Cycles

Lyrics:

Within my chamber, silken, fine
A silent encounter, your eyes on mine
Thought yourself better, dripping vain
Myself your hatred, my opiate, your pain

The paths were chosen, tried, true
They caged you in, my prison, you
You kept me trapped inside your games
But from now on I'll seek my own aims

Do not guide this blackest sheep
I'm not so fragile, and far from weak
A fire rages behind my eyes
The fury burning, where ego dies
You see my hunger, fear its depths
I'll see it sated, nothing less

The path I've walked, these seeds I've sown
The burning footsteps, they're all my own
The mirror shatters, the pieces fall
Each shattered edge reflects it all

Do not guide this blackest sheep
I'm not so fragile, and far from weak
A fire rages behind my eyes
The fury burning, where ego dies
You see my hunger, fear its depths
I'll see it sated, nothing less

Each new temptation, a faded line
Vanishing doubt, ecstasy mine
A loss in vapor, this clouded haze
The endless chase that fills my days

Do not guide this blackest sheep
I'm not so fragile, and far from weak
A fire rages behind my eyes
The fury burning, where ego dies
You see my hunger, fear its depths
I'll see it sated, nothing less

And nothing left…

Cinder (Reprise)

Lyrics:

Through the window of my sleep
I watch a life that will not keep
Laughter glows on the other side
A sun that left me here to die

There is a boy with open hands
Who walks in gardens, takes no demands
He runs where light is easy, free
A stranger wearing what I could be

My palms press warm against the glass
I count the years that will not pass
His eyes are wells my tears can't reach
The panes hold lessons I can’t teach

I pound the frame until it bleeds
Name after name, a chorus of needs
The brittle surface drinks my cry
Reflects me back, then will not die

Echoes of me on the other side
Soft as a life that never tried
I beat my hands for one more day
The glass is whole; it will not fray
He laughs, he loves, he spins, he breathes
While I am folded into grief

I learned the grammar of small asks
To tuck my hunger into tasks
He learned of sunlight without fear
With those who love him always near

I gather shards of other nights
Make fragile lanterns out of lights
Each flare dissolves the instant born
A funeral for the life I mourn

My fists go raw on the clear divide
I carve my sorrow into pride
The mirror keeps an answer cold
A life alive, and I, the sold

Echoes of me on the other side
Gentle life I could not abide
I hammer blood into the pane
The glass remembers every stain
He blooms where I can not belong
I am the echo of his song

I thought the frame would crack with truth
That hands made steady by my youth
Would shatter light and let him fall
But nothing answers to my call

Only the silence answers well
A ringing bell inside a shell
The child I wanted holds his place
And I retreat into my face

Echoes of me on the other side
A life that rose while mine was tied
I beat my blood into cold glass
The fissures never creep, they pass
He walks in sun I cannot see
And this is all that’s left of me

I am the echo… forever outside
The echo… forever outside

Echoes of Me

Lyrics:

I pressed my palms to the world’s cold glass,
Mouth open wide but my voice won’t pass.
I said I was breaking, I said I was weak,
But silence swallowed every word I’d speak.

I haunt their rooms in daylight hours,
Shouting names from hollow towers.
My fingers tap on unseen walls,
But no one listens, no one calls.

I burned my chest to light the sky,
Yet all they saw was smoke drifting by.
They passed me by, eyes clear and dry,
While I learned how to slowly die.

I am fading at the edges,
Thread by thread I disappear.
I reach out but they walk through me—
A shape of breath, a shape of fear.

I am the ghost inside your hall,
The shadow framed against the wall.
I cried for help, you looked away—
Now I’m a whisper you can’t obey.
I pressed my hands, but the glass won’t break,
I called your names, but you never wake.
And in your silence I pass the rift—
A ghost you made, a soul adrift.

I tore my skin to show my wounds,
But you praised the way I bloomed.
Said my pain was just a phase,
A passing cloud, a harmless haze.

Each time I screamed, my voice grew thin,
The outline blurred beneath my skin.
Now the mirror shows what I have become—
A face erased, a body undone.

You let me fade, you built the tomb,
You blessed the silence in the room.
I reach but find no hands to hold—
Only the walls, forever cold.

I am the ghost inside your hall,
The shadow framed against the wall.
I cried for help, you looked away—
Now I’m a whisper you can’t obey.
I pressed my hands, but the glass won’t break,
I called your names, but you never wake.
And in your silence I pass the rift—
A ghost you made, a soul adrift.

You taught me how to disappear,
How to vanish where you stand.
Now your house is full of echoes,
To disappear was your command.

I am the ghost inside your hall,
I leave no trace, no voice, no call.
I reached for you, you turned away—
And now I’ve crossed, I’ve gone, I’ve stayed.
No more glass between our eyes,
No more begging to be alive—
Just a shadow fading slow,
A ghost you raised, and now you’ll know.

Haunted

Lyrics:

I once believed my hands held fire
A lantern lifted through the mire
But every flame was doused in rain
Each spark became a brand of pain

I wore the mask of gods and kings
Clad in the shine of borrowed wings
But feathers rotted into stone
A gilded cage became my throne

The glass I carried split and bled
Each shard a promise left for dead
I pressed them close until they bit
And called the wounds a testament

The savior’s bones are glass and dust
The crown corrodes, the sword is rust
The altar where I swore to stand
Collapses underneath my hands

Ashes in the glass, a broken flame
A savior drowned without a name
The mirror screams, but won’t reveal
The hero I was meant to feel
I raised my arms, but they were weak
The light I swore was just a leak
And now the shards cut deeper still
A martyr made against my will

I kissed the void, I drank its smoke
Each vow I made returned a choke
The garden wilted, blackened roots
The harvest mocked its dying fruits

A thousand cries I swore to catch
Turned into chains that sealed the latch
The glass reflected not the flame
But fractured masks and hollow names

The savior’s bones are glass and dust
The altar burns, the prayers combust
The figure in the mirror’s frame
Is nothing but a ghost of shame

Ashes in the glass, a broken flame
A savior drowned without a name
The mirror screams, but won’t reveal
The hero I was meant to feel
I raised my arms, but they were weak
The light I swore was just a leak
And now the shards cut deeper still
A martyr made against my will

I was the saint they built from lies
A sacrifice to feed their eyes
But every blade they put in me
Has carved away divinity

Ashes in the glass, a broken flame
A savior drowned without a name
The crown is thorns, the sword is bone
The light was never mine alone
I mourn the ghost I could not be
The shattered lantern haunting me
The glass won’t heal, the wounds won’t close
A hero lost, a fraud exposed

Savior

Lyrics:

The hymns were carved into my skin
Lines of fire where prayers begin
But when I bled, the angels turned
And left me to the pyres that burned

They crowned me wrong, they crowned me ghost
A name they loved to love the most
But names are prisons when they bind
A lock that severs flesh from mind

The temple doors were closed in stone
No altar left to call my own
I whispered truth — they called it sin
And damned the blood beneath my skin

Ashes of faith, fall into me
No god, no justice, no sanctuary
I buried my prayers where silence sleeps
Among the bones that no one keeps
Ashes of faith, the fire is gone
The book is torn, the choir withdrawn
I walk in shadows, nameless, free
The last devotion is only me

The law was written by sharpened hands
To cut the shape they could withstand
A body bent, a spirit scarred
A kingdom built on gates and guards

They sold me mercy, then turned away
Their justice laughed at what I’d say
The scales were broken from the start
The weight of me too dark, too sharp

Ashes of faith, fall into me
No god, no justice, no sanctuary
I buried my prayers where silence sleeps
Among the bones that no one keeps
Ashes of faith, the fire is gone
The book is torn, the choir withdrawn
I walk in shadows, nameless, free
The last devotion is only me

If heaven saw me, it turned away
If earth could hold me, it made decay
The stars are blind, the saints are stone
I’ll carve my altar from being alone

Ashes of faith, fall into me
No god, no justice, no sanctuary
The hymn is broken, the prayer is dust
The only gospel is learning distrust
Ashes of faith, the fire is gone
But from the ruin, I still go on
I walk in shadows, nameless, free
The last devotion is only me

Temple

Lyrics:

I walked through arches made of flame
Each pane of color called my name
The garden bloomed with mirrored skies
A paradise that bled my eyes

Beauty leaned on fragile bone
A shining mask, a hollow throne
The glass it glittered, pure, divine
But every petal hid a spine

I kissed the edges, I held them close
Their shimmer brighter than I’d known
But beauty’s gift is never free
It drank its fill of blood from me

In the garden of glass I mourn
Where beauty cuts and love is torn
Each shining blade, a sacred lie
Each fracture sings the way we die
The radiance turns red with time
What once was holy twists to crime
In the garden of glass I see
The death of beauty inside me

I thought the brilliance was the cure
That every wound could make me pure
But beauty carved me into dust
And left me rusting out of trust

The roses broke into a crown
A circlet made to press me down
What dazzled once now drags, deceives
A jeweled noose that will not leave

In the garden of glass I mourn
Where beauty cuts and love is torn
Each shining blade, a sacred lie
Each fracture sings the way we die
The radiance turns red with time
What once was holy twists to crime
In the garden of glass I see
The death of beauty inside me

The brighter it shines, the deeper it scars
The sharper it breaks, the closer we are
I thought beauty could make me whole
It only feasted on my soul

In the garden of glass I mourn
On glittering thorns my flesh is worn
The brilliance blinds, it does not save
It turns the living into graves
The child of light is gone, replaced
By shadows carved into my face
In the garden of glass I see
The death of beauty, and of me

Garden Of Glass

Lyrics:

I found a door at the end of the night
Its frame was silver, its handle bright
They whispered “salvation waits inside,”
So I gathered the keys, I gathered the lies

One by one, I fed the lock
Each promise made, each fragile thought
They cracked, they bent, they snapped in two
The door just stared, the door stayed true

Splinters bloomed beneath my hands
Blood ran thin across the bands
Still I swore, “the next will fit,”
But none were made, no teeth would click

Hope is a fever that burns and deceives
Each glimmer dies, but still I believe
The handle shakes, I hear the sound
Only the silence echoes back around

Keys that never turn
Doors that never break
I bruise my hands, I tear my veins
For just one breath to take
But the lock drinks deep
And it will not learn
A thousand prayers, a thousand screams
For keys that never turn

I built my faith on hollow steel
Each fragile shape, each false ideal
The teeth of hope pressed in the groove
But still the silence refused to move

My chest collapsed with every try
A birth of flame, a swift goodbye
I swore salvation’s light was near
But doors don’t bend to broken years

Hope is a wound I reopen to see
Each shining key turns parasite in me
The lock just laughs, the hinges sing
A chorus built on suffering

Keys that never turn
Doors that never break
I bruise my hands, I tear my veins
For just one breath to take
But the lock drinks deep
And it will not learn
A thousand prayers, a thousand screams
For keys that never turn

I found a door at the end of the night
It never opened, it never might
Behind it—salvation, or so they said
But hope is a curse that keeps me fed

Keys that never turn
Doors that never fall
I gave my blood, I gave my bones
It only took them all
And still the lock is whole
Its silence stern
A thousand lives, a thousand deaths
For keys that never turn


Keys

Lyrics:

They told me love was written in fire
That every heart must burn with desire
But when I searched for heat inside
I found the embers long had died

I thought I was a hollow shell
A broken chord, a living hell
The silence in my veins a curse
A vacant song, a universe

I tried to mimic what they crave
To play the part, to misbehave
But every kiss was glass, not flame
And left me drowning under shame

Starless flame, I thought I’d lost
A body wandering, tempest-tossed
No fire lit, no hunger true
A void where love was meant to bloom

But I am not a broken frame
Not ashes dressed in borrowed shame
The void inside is mine to keep
It does not wound, it does not weep

Desire’s chains don’t bind my skin
My truth is strength, not discipline
No cage of fire will define
The way this ghost of me survives

Starless flame, I stand, I breathe
I am enough in all I weave
No hunger forced will make me whole
My quiet fire is still a soul

But how alone this sky can be
So few who share this gravity
A lonely constellation’s glow
A thousand miles I’ll never know

Starless flame, I burn apart
A single light, a severed heart
Though I am whole, I walk alone
Among the stars that are not home
Starless flame, it speaks of me
A truth, a strength, a tragedy
The universe too vast, too far
To find another kindred star

Starless Flame

Lyrics:

The years spilled like sand I never held
A maze of couches, rooms that smelled
Of ink and notes, dissected scars
Mapping my ruin beneath the stars

I chased the “why” until I bled
Unraveled truths that left me dead
Every answer, sharpened steel
A blade that stole the chance to heal

Hourglass, my time undone
The grains all spill, the body numb
I found the truth but lost the years
A crown of knowledge, built of tears

Hourglass, it cuts my hands
No second chance, no promised land
I learned at last why I’m this way
But time had already walked away

Bones that ache like shattered stone
The youth I squandered never grown
In mirrors warped, the body fades
A monument to endless graves

Therapists sifting, piece by piece
But answers never bring release
The puzzle whole, but far too late
The door unlocked, but sealed by fate

Hourglass, my time undone
The grains all spill, the body numb
I found the truth but lost the years
A crown of knowledge, built of tears

Hourglass, it cuts my hands
No second chance, no promised land
I learned at last why I’m this way
But time had already walked away

The glass keeps falling, thin and frail
Each grain a ghost, a whispered wail
I scream for pause, but silence reigns
The future buried in the remains

Hourglass, my time undone
The grains all spill, the body numb
The truth I sought became my chain
A script of loss, engraved in pain

Hourglass, it bleeds me dry
No more tomorrows left to try
The answers carved into my skin
But I will never start again

Hourglass

Lyrics:

I built my words like fragile glass
Hoping one day they’d let me pass
But every voice just turned away
Each cry dissolved in night and day

Hands I reached for turned to stone
Every promise left me alone
The walls I carved to keep me safe
Now tower high, a hollow grave

I cannot trust the world I see
It deafens, blinds, and swallows me
A citadel of silent walls
No answer comes when sorrow calls

I spoke, I screamed, but no one came
Their silence dressed in gentle names
Now fear has locked my voice inside
A ghost that learns it must not confide

The glass that once revealed the truth
Now shows me only shattered youth
Each shard reflects a failed embrace
A thousand masks, a thousand faces

To trust again would be to bleed
To feed the wolves my heart’s last seed
So I retreat, I turn to stone
Better silence than the unknown

I cannot trust the world I see
It deafens, blinds, and swallows me
A citadel of silent walls
No answer comes when sorrow calls

I spoke, I screamed, but no one came
Their silence dressed in gentle names
Now fear has locked my voice inside
A ghost that learns it must not confide

Keys that rust within my hand
Doors that open into sand
Each vow I held dissolved to rust
The grave I keep is made of trust

I cannot trust, I cannot pray
The glass has cut it all away
A citadel where shadows feast
The echoes rise, the voices cease

I learned too late, I’m not believed
Each wound denied, each plea deceived
So I withdraw, my hands unclasped
A soul that mourns what trust collapsed

Trust

Citadel

Lyrics:

I was born with hands of light
But each embrace dissolved to night
The innocence I could not keep
Now whispers jagged in my sleep

I dreamed of saving, dreamed of flame
But broke beneath the endless blame
Every vow was carved in stone
Yet left me hollow, left alone

This is my cathedral of glass 
Where every prayer comes back to pass
A shattered faith, a body worn
A thousand selves I’ve had to mourn.

The beauty cut, the trust betrayed
The love that withered, dreams decayed
I bleed the truth, it will not last
Inside my cathedral of glass

The hourglass devoured years
The sands engraved with rust and tears
I chased the keys that never fit
Each lock a tomb, I kneel to it

I begged for mercy, begged for sight
But silence crowned the endless night
The ghost I am, the ghost they see
Is all the world has left of me

This is my cathedral of glass
Where every prayer comes back to pass
A shattered faith, a body worn
A thousand selves I’ve had to mourn

The beauty cut, the trust betrayed
The love that withered, dreams decayed
I bleed the truth, it will not last
Inside my cathedral of glass

Each fragment shines, a holy line
A mirror where my shadows bind
I lift my hands, but they don’t see
The fractures are what’s left of me

This is my cathedral of glass
The only home that I’ll ever have
I mourn the child, I mourn the flame
I mourn the man I’ll never claim

The hour’s gone, the light is past
I’ll die inside my house of glass
Each echo fades, no prayers amassed
Alone within my cathedral of glass

Atlas I.
