Light Through Longing Waters

Ageless Eyes

lyrics: 

You're better off without me 
I'll just disappear 
Never done a single thing for love 
It's all been out of fear 
One day you will forget me, this is true I know 
I'll disappear forever, please just let me go 

You're better off without me, I get in your way 
You're so beautiful in all you do, in every word you say 
The void is home to me, I dont fit in 'round here 
So forget you ever knew me, let me disappear 

Mechanical 
Like the faulty parts I'm made of I'm 
Replaceable 

Interchangeable 
Rusting from the tears that fall and they're 
Untraceable 

Inescapable 
This sickness spreads to you, I know I'm Culpable 

Reprehensible 
Don't waste your time on me, cause you're too
Vulnerable 

You're better off without me 
I'll just disappear 
Never done a single thing for love 
It's all been out of fear 
One day you will forget me, this is true I know 
I'll disappear forever, please just let me go 

You're better off without me, I get in your way 
You're so beautiful in all you do, in every word you say 
The void is home to me, I dont fit in 'round here 
So forget you ever knew me, let me disappear 

This life was never meant for me so
I'll just disappear 
(Mechanical)
These broken dreams are all I have that keep me here
(Interchangeable)

There is no tool that can repair me, this is true I know 
(Inescapable)
I'll disappear forever, please just let me go 
(Reprehensible)

Contaminating everything, I just darken your day
(Mechanical)
I wish I could be like you in one single way 
(Interchangeable)

The void is all I've known, so please don't keep me here
(Inescapable)

Forget you ever loved me, let me disappear 

Disappear

All I want is to be free 
I wish to be vulnerable
Encased in a web of emotive calamity
Trapped in frozen fear 
Apathy suffocates me
I need air...

From the far reaches of death 
Claustrophobia is born
I gasp
I need to feel free...

This musty cell of depravity,
Vanity,
Disregard 
Hate...
It chokes me with the foul stench of death
The scent that tells me darkness falls

I can see no virtue in this prison
A veil is pulled upon me,
And I'm engulfed in merciless dissociation

Unravel my desires,
Dispel this illusion 
Return me to the source of all

This prison of emotive distress,
This cage of idiosyncratic routine,
This lockdown hysteria of need,
It's merely a base from which to start
The distance between us all
Only leaves room for us to grow
I can see the walls break down,
The old facades are wearing thin,
And I'm peeling away the trappings
Of things I thought I knew
But knew were never meant for me

Somewhere outside this darkness 
I know there is still love and truth in the hearts of humanity
As long as that spirit lives on, we have no I'll to fear 
And on horizons unending we shall find the day 

The day where all are free to fly 

Just help me find the way...

Binding Of Spirits

(His visions are intrepid 
Imagery his escape 
Vanity is the mask 
Pride, his retaliation 
Hatred, his solace
Anger has consumed him
Revenge is what he seeks 
Though his enemy is elusive 
His eyes have been blinded
Illumination, his fear 
Beware the lonely one 
For his tears are not revealed 
In the dark)

Why do you hide in the dark?
Broken, tempestuous seeker
Trading your hunger away, 
Journey to waken the sleeper

This battle was not my design 
A burden that I never asked for 
In a world where the cruel lead the blind
I want it all to burn away...

(His visions are intrepid 
Imagery his escape 
Vanity is the mask 
Pride, his retaliation 
Hatred, his solace
Anger has consumed him
Revenge is what he seeks 
Though his enemy is elusive 
His eyes have been blinded 
Illumination, his fear
Beware the lonely one 
For his tears are not revealed 
In the dark)

Visions of a bloodied world 
Consumed by the scion of might 
Eternal war to fill his thirst 
Til returned to the dark before night 

Brothers die by brothers' hands 
And fathers dig their graves 
Have mercy for this beast of clay 
We beckon our souls to be saved 

Visions are intrepid 
(Visions are intrepid)
Imagery, my escape 
(Imagery, your escape)
Vanity is the mask 
(Vanity is the mask)
Pride, my retaliation 
(Pride, your retaliation)
Hatred, my solace
(Hatred, your solace)
Anger has consumed me
(Anger has consumed you)
Revenge is what I seek
(Revenge is what you seek)
Though my enemy is elusive
(Though your enemy is elusive)
My eyes have been blinded, 
(Your eyes have been blinded)
Illumination, my fear 
(Illunination, your fear)
Beware the lonely one 
(Beware, lonely one)
For my tears are not revealed 
(For your tears are not revealed)
In the dark 
(In the dark)

Why do you hide in the night?
Searching, contemptuous seeker 
The answer lies still deep inside 
In pain lies the teacher of teachers 

This vision was not my design 
No citadel greets my horizon 
Unending like seasons in time 
The voracious old for ever rising 

Visions of a bloodied world 
Consumed by the scion of might 
Eternal war to fill his thirst 
Til returned to the dark before night

Brothers die by brothers' hands 
And fathers dig their graves 
Have mercy for this beast of clay 
We beckon our souls to be saved

Shine your light upon me, 
I want to be free 
I cant heal this broken world 
Just give me eyes to see 
I cannot be purified 
I will not be tamed 
Wielding all the dark inside 
Til I forget my name

Ocean, can you hear me?
I want to be clean 
I won't forget this troubled world 
Allow me to be seen 
Giving all the strength I have, 
Take all that remains 
I will wield the light inside 
I will heal this pain...

I will heal this pain
Someone heal my pain....
I cant heal your pain
Someone heal my pain....

(Beware the lonely one 
For his tears are not revealed 
In the dark)

Lyrics:
Hurt me once and it's shame on you,
But you hurt me twice so I'll run you through
Counting all the wounds that are in my back
The blood is still drippin' so I'd better attack!

Disperse! 
Your lies!
This curse!
Better keep running 'fore it's time to die!
Disperse!
Your pain!
My curse!
Better start praying so it's not in vain!

Disperse!
My trust!
This curse!
Time to start peelin' away the rust!
Disperse!
These lies!
Your curse!
Better start running,
For it's time to die!

My friend 
You're forever evergreen

I'm sorry 
I'm sorry I couldn't see how badly you were fucking hurting 
I was hurting too, but that was no excuse 
I was in a position of responsibility to be there for you 
But I fucking /wasn't/ 
I let you down 
I let everyone down

Cause when it came down to it 
When you really needed me 
I capitulated to power 
Instead of my friends 

For that 
I will always be sorry 
I will always be sorry 
I will always be sorry 
I will always be sorry
I'm so sorry 
I love you 
I miss you

Lyrics: 

something ugly in you you also saw in me 
guess we're infected with the same disease 
well you could be my girl and I could be your baby 
have a habit of ruining everything 

we're the same, we're both rabid animals 
got sick heads and minds, we were both born feral 
like fields growing high, we're just those dark animals 
the sad things at night, we know no control 

you like to play with knives and get all cut up 
had a shotgun and you sawed the barrel off 
covered up in welts you say you like it rough 
well no blood for you will ever be enough 

we're the same, we're both rabid animals 
got sick heads and minds, we were both born feral 
like fields growing high, we're just those dark animals 
the sad things at night, we know no control 

i'm the darkest horse that you've ever seen 
of all the things you fuck i'm the most empty 
and no blood for you will ever be enough 
can't bury anything without digging it up

Rabid (Nicole Dollanganger cover)

Through many nights of unsound sleep
I've heard you say my name
You held your hand out through the haze
And whispered
"Come and find me..."
Your invitation woke in me
The hurt to hold out hope
You've ruined me,
Stole all from me,
And I have always loved you.
If I could take away the nights
I longed to touch your hands
Or smell your hair
Or hear your laugh
Or know you missed me too
I would.
You took my very confidence,
Walked away with all my pride
Doused my trust and struck a match
Reduced my faith to cinders.
Your love was never really mine,
Those sparks alive inside your eyes
Told me I was not enough
Impressions all re-told, relayed
And carved into the hands I hold
Fists I clench ask I stay brave
Despite the truth I thought I'd stayed
Bid farewell and walked away
I've hated every single day
I thought your eyes were mine
But found out later lied at times
And left me in a state of stupor
Stayed up late refreshing thoughts
In hopes I'd see you one life sooner
Not have to wait another chapter
You spin your story, yet another,
I've found my ending with my lover
The one I've loved in living matter
In skin and bone and days forever,
Not dreams that lived through dying embers,
Fantasies of youthful slumbers
Our dreams were worthy of remembering
Days spent in September, singing,
Laughing like our youths together
Holding hands, through frightened fetters
Hearts and promises were breaking
As I recall, the air was heavy
Thick with quaint and distant longing
Brought my blood to painful burning,
Exalted fears to basic yearning,
Turned away, last second learning,
Tears in eyes tore me asunder
Brought me to my lowest standing
I can't afford to be so petty
Perdition's path turned me astray
That road was ours to walk together
But we got lost along the way
Our paths will cross again, I wager
But not the way we walked before
I've learned to trust my loss and anger
The pain is weakness leaving me
Reminders grief was all worth feeling
Wisdom that to life there's more
I have mine and you have yours
Remember that these bonds are precious
Like soothing rain that stops the storm
Like distant clouds on the horizon
Like winds that settle change's roar
I left your memories on the shore

I've walked away, I'm hurt no more
I've left your memories on the shore

Ambient

On The Shore

ebbing tides and breezes bend
'neath the transitory skies
wonder where these waters end
wonder where, i wonder where

in the mystery they lend
bracing winds' and waters' tie
shifting tides and breezes bend
'cross the transitory sky

ever-changing seasons send
a rush of ardor past my eyes
beauties over water's end
i wonder where these waters end...

elements of hope defend 
the grace with which the heavens cry
mourning not the summer's end
cherish all the last goodbyes

In The aWake

We have lived and we've died at least
A million times before 
We familiar 
Few who, promised peace,
Were sent to war
What men fight
To keep alive
They just as soon destroy
Then trade away dreams
For momentary shades of joy

Our homes become battlefields
Plowshares turn to swords
As the land that we share becomes
Surrendered to our lords 

All the lines that divide us fall from
Shadowed skies above
And descend on 
Our hungry hearts 
Into what we 
Call love

Convinced we are the enemy
They curse our place on bended knee
Guided by the war within,
We bend beneath their weighted whims

We get lost in the silence 
Where words become violence
Then lost in the violence,
Our words become silence

Lost in the silence,
Where words become violence 
Then lost in their violence,
Our words become silence

All split between many truths
And paths we're taught
to walk,
We collide with our jagged steel,
And forget how to talk
In the battles we're forced to wage
Humanity's not lost 
Does the one who denies its wonder
Truly know the cost?

Our homes become battlefields
Plowshares turn to swords
When the mercy of martyrs
Becomes lost upon their lords

And when the blade falls upon us
Weakness does not 
Make us weak 
For the strength of one's  
strength of all, the
The source of love we seek

It asks "how can you silence me?
When I am that which sets you free?
Listen past the bloody din
And you can hear me deep within”

But you're lost in the silence 
Where words become violence
Then lost in the violence,
Words become silence
Oh, please don't deny me
Words don’t define me 
In a world that derides me
I'm just trying to find me

But I'm lost in the silence 
Where words become violence 
Lost in the violence 
My words become silence

Oh, please don't deny me 
Words don't define me
I'm just trying to find me 
I'm just trying to find me

But I'm lost in the silence,
(please don't deny me)
Where words become violence
(words don't define me) 
Then lost in the violence,
(i'm just trying to find me)
My words become silence
(i'm just trying to find me)

So please don't deny me
(i'm just trying to find me)
Words don't define me
(i'm just trying to find me)
I'm just trying to find me
(i'm just trying to find me)
I'm just trying to find me

But I'm lost in the silence...

Lost In The Silence

Dig the blade deep 
For soon you will see 
The blood in my heart runs black 

Dig the blade deep 
For soon you will see 
The blood in my heart runs black 

Drive the arrow 
The wound is narrow 
I have no heart to attack 

Swallow the sea 
Gaze upon me, 
This phantom thy sorrows command

Abandoned by all, 
Succumb to your fall 
For your own blood was spilled by your hand

Dig the blade deep
And soon you will see
The very face 
Of your own betrayal (x2)

Dig the blade deep 
And soon you will see 
And soon you will see 
And soon you will see

BLASPHEMY 

Brothers in arms I've betrayed 

HERESY

Drowning in the blood
that my dagger craves 

DERELICT 

Would you abandon the world to be saved?

HERETIC 

Buried in the guilt as you're digging your grave 

BLASPHEMY 

Teach me the power of pain 

HERESY

Drowning in the blood that
runs black from this blade

DERELICT 

Abandon all will to be saved 

HERETIC 

Dive into the dark as you're 
digging with the blade  

Dig the blade deep
And soon you will see
The very face 
Of your own betrayal (x3)

Dig the blade deep 
And soon you will see 
And soon you will see 
And soon you will see

BLASPHEMY 

Brothers in arms I've betrayed 

HERESY

Drowning in the blood 
that my dagger craves 

DERELICT 

Would you abandon the world to be saved?

HERETIC 

Buried in the guilt as you're digging your grave 

BLASPHEMY 

Teach me the power of pain 

HERESY

Drowning in the blood that 
runs black from this blade

DERELICT 

Abandon all will to be saved 

HERETIC 

Dive into the dark as you're 
digging with the blade   

 Dig the blade deep 
(Soon you will see)
For soon you will see
(And soon you will see) 
The blood in my heart runs black 
(And soon you will see)

Soon you will see....
