Angel Or Alien

Shadowmourne

[Verse 1]
Reflections
Contortions
The human condition's clear
The beginning of the end
Unending
Has no purpose
Here
Dismantling
Unraveling
The chemicals inside
Beneath the skin
The soul within
We are the mirror's edge

[Pre-Chorus]
We're better off
Just close the coffin

[Chorus]
All we are
Is chemical
Molecular
The same as dirt
We're better off dead
There's no purpose
It's the beginning of the end

[Verse 2]
Just flesh and bone
Stripped to the bone
Unplug the machine
And burn it all down
When all hope is gone
You are free
And you are the one who owns your fate

[Pre-Chorus]
We're better off
Just close the coffin

[Chorus]
All we are
Is chemical
Molecular
The same as dirt
We're better off dead
There's no purpose
It's the beginning of the end

Mirror's Edge

Lyrics 


Radiator hums in a midnight flat,
cup gone cold and the screen is black.
Four bare walls and a buzzing light,
I count the seconds just to prove I’m alive.


If silence is a snowfall in my chest,
I’ll breathe a path through the drift, step by step.


No where to go, no one to call,
but I won’t let go when the ceilings fall.
I’ll hold this breath till the night lets go—
no where to go, but I still go.


Empty inbox like an empty street,
voices in the hallway never speak.
Small talk ghosts in the grocery line,
I fake a smile just to buy some time.


My name is just a whisper to the room—
I say it back so it won’t be consumed.


No where to go, no one to call,
but I won’t let go when the ceilings fall.
I’ll hold this breath till the night lets go—
no where to go, but I still go.


Count to four, feel your feet, let the air come clean.
Open the door, let the hallway breathe.
If the weight comes back like a winter storm,
take my hand in the dark—we weather it warm.


Hold on! Don’t let go!
Head up! Ride the low!


No where to go, but I won’t fold—
there’s a turn ahead that I can’t see yet.
If there’s a dawn behind this road,
light me a spark—I’ll follow it.


Till morning taps the window frame.

Harlots Breath
