Nothing is a bother 
Like sand in the hand from a broken hourglass 
A sulking dark matter 
are you what I saw in the twilight hours past
Distractions like a savior 
A dramatic laugh track until I'm called back
I'm sailing to my birthright 
Inheritance marked by crafted shipwrecks

What will I be
When I cease
Will I float ethereal 
What's even me
When I'm deceased
Am I all material
Will I be anything 
Can I escape 
The bottom of the sea
Is there a path for me
Can you break the deep

I'm longing for salvation 


How are you so certain
When gravestones paint the garden 
You talk of resurrection
Anastasia Moon without her expiration 

Is it just your upbringing 
a fabric weaved into your core 
is it seeking out your father
Picking sunflowers and one day more

What will I be
When I cease
Will I float ethereal 
What's even me
When I'm deceased
Am I all material
Will I be anything 
Can I escape 
The bottom of the sea
Is there a path for me
Can you break the deep

I'm longing for salvation 

I remember brighter moments 
When every second wasn't tainted by the infinite 
Can we travel backwards 
When a birth wasn't overshadowed by the shadow 
It's taken all my fathers 
Could I be the weak link in this role call?
Can we find the answer
Is there a dragon slayer coming after all?

Is it just comfort seeking, a longing for something more 
Is it more than grieving, that keeps knocking at my door 
Is it worth believing, what I cannot ignore 
It's just so tempting, are you on the sea floor?

What will I be
When I cease
Will I float ethereal 
What's even me
When I'm deceased
Am I all material
Will I be anything 
Can I escape 
The bottom of the sea
Is there a path for me
Can you break the deep

I'm longing for salvation 

What will I be
When I cease
Will I float ethereal 
What's even me
When I'm deceased
Am I all material
Will I be anything 
Can I escape 
The bottom of the sea
Is there a path for me
Can you break the deep

I'm longing for salvation

Gehenna

I thought I found God deep in the sea
But I was just lost in my thoughts, trapped in my sleep
And I dreamed a dream I thought I could touch
I painted a scene where you were with us

I thought I’d see heaven, when I’d see your eyes
Finding forgiveness, as you breathed in life
I thought your hands would be mine to hold
And I would be yours and you’d be my own

But now,
I’m alone in my birthright, I live in the depths
The currents are crushing, I’m losing my breath
It’s burying me, I can’t see the light
To the waves I succumb, as you pull the tide

Deeper and deeper, you pull me under
Deeper and deeper, you watch me sink
Deeper and deeper, you pull me under
Deeper and deeper, you watch me sink

There is a hell, I’ve seen her face
It was bruised, it was faded, and it bore my name
There is a heaven, it hangs in the sky
It’s shaped like a crescent and haunts me at night

I’m alone in my birthright, I live in the depths
The currents are crushing, I’m losing my breath
It’s burying me, I can’t see the light
To the waves I succumb, as you pull the tide

Deeper and deeper, you pull me under
Deeper and deeper, you watch me sink
Deeper and deeper, you pull me under
Deeper and deeper, you watch me sink

There is a heaven, but it’s out of reach
It now serves the purpose to keep me asleep
There is a hell, signified in my head
It’s where you keep dying but I’m never dead

Deeper and deeper, you pull me under
(hold fast to me)
Deeper and deeper, you watch me sink
(she's safe at home)
Deeper and deeper, you pull me under
(I'll bring you there)
Deeper and deeper, you watch me sink
(Just hold on)

Anamoon

Pull me closer 
Back and forth 
Like waves on the sand 
Illuminate 
Captivate 
Eclipse the land 
 
(chorus)
We bring life out of darkness 
We multiply in the void 
Your breath is a prayer 
Begging  me to enjoy
We bring life out of darkness 
We multiply in the void 
Your breath is a prayer 
Begging me to enjoy

Thunder roars through the heavens
The veil is torn like the sea
The grave remembers life
When you submit to me

Heaven over hades 
Setting us free 
Unified in the waters 
Entangling 

Harrowing
that place of death 
Dry bones 
Made Sacred flesh 

(chorus)
We bring life out of darkness 
We multiply in the void 
Your breath is a prayer 
Begging me to enjoy
We bring life out of darkness 
We multiply in the void 
Your breath is a prayer 
Begging me to enjoy

Thunder roars through the heavens
The veil is torn like the sea
The grave remembers life
When you submit to me

You have crowned me king 
And I have made you a bride 
My body is all yours 
and yours is all mine 
Submit unto me
I will give you care. 
Submit unto me 
I will lay you bare

(chorus)
We bring life out of darkness 
We multiply in the void 
Your breath is a prayer 
Begging me to enjoy
We bring life out of darkness 
We multiply in the void 
Your breath is a prayer 
Begging me to enjoy

Thunder roars through the heavens
The veil is torn like the sea
The grave remembers life
When you submit to me

We bring life out of darkness 
We multiply in the void 
Your breath is a prayer 
Begging me to enjoy
We bring life out of darkness 
We multiply in the void 
Your breath is a prayer 
Begging me to enjoy

Ex Nihilo

Through one man came death
Trading gardens for eternal depth 
If you take a bite, you won't die 
But I'll make sure it takes your life 

Unholy verses formed to curses 
Longing for cradled hearses 
If you take a bite, you won't die 
But I'll make sure it takes your life 

I will put enmity 
Between you and your seed
Vile Serpent scheme 
You need protection from me
Leviathan 
Tossed in the waves 
No talk of resurrection 
No need to be saved

Covering exposure no disclosure 
even when you're getting closer 
Midnight wishes turning grey
What once was love turns to hate 

Will you take this cup for me 
Consume the salt of your sleep 
If you take a bite, you won't die 
But I'll make sure it takes your life

I will put enmity 
Between you and your seed
Vile Serpent scheme 
You need protection from me
Leviathan 
Tossed in the waves 
No talk of resurrection 
No need to be saved

This is your body broken for me
this is your blood shed for my sins
If you take a bite, you won't die 
But I'll make sure it takes your life
(do this in remembrance of me)

I will put enmity 
Between you and your seed
Vile Serpent scheme 
You need protection from me
Leviathan 
Tossed in the waves 
No talk of resurrection 
No need to be saved
I will put enmity 
Between you and your seed
Vile Serpent scheme 
You need protection from me
Leviathan 
Tossed in the waves 
No talk of resurrection 
No need to be saved

Original Sin

Careful what you pray for 
When you wish against a star 
Light takes time to travel 
Roaming off sacred hearts

Partial reflections from a crescent 
Waxing Evermore by the second 
Feelings misdirected 
Seeking acceptance from what was rejected 

Broken rosaries have your fingerprints 
No Christ but the cross exists 
Absent from the instruments 
Lacking from certificates
I'll keep you hidden 

An ever present past 
A vessel of wrath I can’t sail back 
A duchess that could touch us 
Footprints that could hunt us 

Fronts heavy like the waves 
Hidden as not to be saved 
If there’s no original sin 
Why need salvation

Broken rosaries have your fingerprints 
No Christ but the cross exists 
Absent from the instruments 
Lacking from certificates
I'll keep you hidden 

It’s not that you were loved and lost 
I knew the stakes I knew the cost 
I just didn’t know it would take loss
To know love 

(instrumental break)

A vessel of wrath I can’t sail back 

Broken rosaries have your fingerprints 
No Christ but the cross exists 
Absent from the instruments 
Lacking from certificates

Broken rosaries have your fingerprints 
No Christ but the cross exists 
Absent from the instruments 
Lacking from certificates
I'll keep you hidden

No choice but to keep you hidden 

Vessel

Save me, for the waters have come up to my neck.
I’m sinking and I cannot find the light;
I have come into deep waters, and the flood sweeps over me

You have put me in the depths of the Pit,
in the regions dark and deep.
Your wrath lies heavy upon me,
and you overwhelm me with all your waves.

Save me
Save me 
I have plunged into the depths 
I have sinned unto my death 
I am to blame 
I am to blame 

Save me
Save me 
I have plunged into the depths 
I have sinned unto my death 
I am to blame 
I am to blame 

The waters saw You, 
the waters saw You and were afraid.
I trembled, along with The deep
Your path was through the sea,
Your way through the mighty waters

Save me
Save me 
I have plunged into the depths 
I have sinned unto my death 
I am to blame 
I am to blame 

Out of the belly of the deep I cried,
The waters closed in over me,
the deep surrounded me,
save me, save me

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you

Save me
Save me 
I have plunged into the depths 
I have sinned unto my death 
I am to blame 
I am to blame 

Bar Jonah

Spewed out from the belly of the pit 
Fleshy desires counterfeit 
Couldn’t purchase flight 
So I built a Tower of Babel overnight 

Never reached the sky 
Was struck down but somehow dry 
An oasis in the sea 
A place of refuge just for me 


Of sinners I’m the chief 
So why forgive me
Why draw me close  
When I have cursed you most
You should cast me from your sight 
You should take my life 
You should… 
You should…

First time I've felt sand 
That wasn’t tainted by glass 
Time somehow felt static 
No future, past or present 

I encountered energy 
Something unchanging 
Something powerful 
Undeniable 

I felt fire on my skin 
But burning just from within 
I saw blood shed that wasn’t mine 
I saw my death but didn’t die 
I saw a fruit from on a tree 
Saying pick me if you are weary 
Can you quench my thirst 
Can you heal my hurt 

Of sinners I’m the chief 
So why forgive me
Why draw me close  
When I have cursed you most
You should cast me from your sight 
You should take my life 
You should… 
You should…

Life rafts were for the women and children and better men 
My ship long wrecked I deserve judgment 
I’ve been letting the moon burn my flesh 
Don’t offer me harbor when they have no peace in rest 
Don't offer me life when you've given them death
Don't offer them salt when you've given me breath 
Can't you understand the environment
This hell is mine I deserve it 

Of sinners I’m the chief 
So why forgive me
Why draw me close  
When I have cursed you most
You should cast me from your sight 
You should take my life 

Of sinners I’m the chief 
So why forgive me
Why draw me close  
When I have cursed you most
You should cast me from your sight 
You should take my life 
You should… 
You should…

It shouldn't be so easy, 
The burden not so light
I don't deserve mercy 
Someone has to die 

Nineveh

What did your eyes see? 
Were they unfocused or just looking past
The shadows in the room 
Hovering over like an hourglass 

And No one dared to say what we all know now 
The legacy was ending, the castle was burning down 

But 
Between the gasps and rotten flesh we dared to pray to ask 

Could we go back to that kingdom 
That kingdom by the sea 
Where we all were still just children 
When you were still our king 
Could we have a moment with you 
Where we could be a memory 
Where one last time we could see you and we could still be seen

Annabel Lee is present
she's right by his side
that wind that blew only brought her in from the tide 
 Is this salvation, will it bring us to the Dawn?
Could that love that was love that was more than a love
Undo what the years had done? 

So between the gasps and rotten flesh we dared to pray to ask 

Could we go back to that kingdom 
That kingdom by the sea 
Where we all were still just children 
When you were still our king 
Could we have a moment with you 
Where we could be a memory 
Where one last time we could see you and we could still be seen 

All the things we thought we’d have the time to say 
And all the things we said every single day 
They couldn’t measure up they just seemed so crude 
So we all sat alone as together we battled solitude

You taught the Sun to shine 
Now we only own the night

Could we go back to that kingdom 
That kingdom by the sea 
Where we all were still children 
When you were still our king 
Could we have a moment with you 
Where we could be a memory 
Where one last time we could see you and we could  still be seen

Kingdom By The Sea

I guess the boughs not broken 
A past I've learned to accept 
I guess I'm getting better 
Overexposure had it's hand in that
 
Creation over chaos  
Like firmament spans the sea
I'm not the author or perfector 
Certain in uncertainty  

I'm writing down the names of all those lost at sea 
On Hallowed Tides I'm holding your memory
I'm black and blue but wading in the wake 
I'm holding fast to hope for dawn to break 

I'm collecting letters
of all your eulogies
I read them in the silence 
and feel you close to me

they say he's the savior 
of the living not the dead
so who should i pray for 
when I'm all that's left

I'm writing down the names of all those lost at sea 
On Hallowed Tides I'm holding your memory
I'm black and blue but wading in the wake 
I'm holding fast to hope for dawn to break 

Could we start a new legacy 
Where sons could cast nets in calm seas?
Could fathers lay in still waters 
and peacefully drown with their daughters?

I'm writing down the names of all those lost at sea 
On Hallowed Tides I'm holding your memory
I'm black and blue but wading in the wake 
I'm holding fast to hope for  dawn to break 
I'm writing down the names of all those lost at sea 
On Hallowed Tides I'm holding your memory
I'm black and blue but wading in the wake 
I'm holding fast to hope for dawn to break 

Hallowed Tides

What’s deeper than the depths?
Sabbath in eternal rest (eternal rest)
Where the blue fades into black
Where we suffer ego death (ego death)

Drown with us (drown with us)
Drown with us (drown with us)
Drown with us (drown with us)
To become, you must end (just end)

Now lay me down to the deep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should drown before I wake,
I pray the Lord my soul to take

Can a legacy be easy? (is it easy?)
Can the sea harrow Hades? (harrow Hades)
If I asphyxiate,
will I regenerate?
If I give up my breath,
Will my ego meet with death?

Drown with us (drown with us)
Drown with us (drown with us)
Drown with us (drown with us)
To become, you must end (just end)

Now lay me down to the deep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should drown before I wake,
I pray the Lord my soul to take

In the deep,
I’ll follow, I’ll follow
In the deep,
I’ll follow, I’ll follow

Is this how your lungs felt when they breathed their last?
Is this what your eyes saw when they looked past?
Drag me under, drown me in our legacy
set me free, set me free

Drown with us (drown with us)
Drown with us (drown with us)
Drown with us (drown with us)
To become, you must end (just end)

Now lay me down to the deep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should drown before I wake,
I pray the Lord my soul to take

Drown with us (drown with us)
Drown with us (drown with us)
Drown with us (drown with us)
To become, you must end (just end)
Drown with us (drown with us)
Drown with us (drown with us)
Drown with us (drown with us)

Ego Death (Drown With Us)
