“Empty all the colour
From your perception
Blur the lines
Forget shape
Forget structure
Close your eyes”
Vultures circle my bed
Dressed in white and reek of death
There is blood on my hands for every life that I've taken
The battle's not over till I've given up
Don’t take me now, my fights just begun
This broken vessel won't hold me down
Repair these wounds because i'm not stopping
Now
Oh, Ocean of gold
I'm just waiting for the tide
Back and forth
hypnotized
Lull me to sleep
Metal talons pierce my skin
Cut like scalpels
Am I to atone for my sins?
Vision fades to black
Plagued by ignorance
One false hope

Astral Vacation
04:07
|

|
Through time and space
I pierce the veil
For the first and last time
When Will I
Remember the feeling?
Clock stops but I can feel
It fleeting
Somewhere between
The light and living
Drift above
All that exists
watching over
Weight less body
Burdens heavy
Spent years building
Walls no ceilings
What was the meaning?
“Floating above where time can't reach you
Eyes like diamonds reflecting all the light
Hollow traveler So far from home
I can see right through you
You're so alone
Where is your throne?”
Isolation
Desolation
Don't take away my light
Clock stands still
Disintegrate
Slow decay
Soul washed away
Stars explode
When will god show?

Abstract War

|
A stroke of war on canvas
Colours of chaos
Catatonic eyes you've seen too much
“With scars on your skin
And corruption in your mind
Growing bigger growing deeper
Like quicksand
Your struggle sinks you”
Shell shock
Loose grip
Catalyst
Posed in a Gestured forward stride
Blooming fire and blister red
Forever marked by battle
Brush breaking bones shaking
Weak hearts, no stomach
Forever branded
Stuck staring at the same sad picture
Frayed edges of a broken frame
Heavy breathing
Smoke filled lungs
Spill the ink onto the page
blackout this memory
Stippling black and white shading all the light
Darkest skies deepest blue the tides
rage on with fight
Water and oil bleed
Mixing, breathing
Dripping mayhem out the seams
Shell shock
Loose grip
Catalyst
Posed in a Gestured forward stride
Blooming fire and blister red
Forever marked by battle
Weak hearts, no stomach
Forever
Growing bigger growing deeper
Like quicksand
Your struggle sinks you”
And i'm sinking down
It's leaking off the page
Colours are all wrong
Their bleeding out my eyes
Colours bleached and dyed
Wrong

Introspective
03:28

|
Lost amongst the trees
They stare and smirk at me
As if they know who's coming
as if they know who lurks
I can hear the screams
Like a howl in the breeze
Exhaled through jagged teeth
I hear them
See, where the lines connect everything
Feel, the presence behind the scene
Is this an illusion or is this a dream?
Skin cracks and flakes away
The pain is absent
But the cold remains
Why do I feel this way?
Something wicked this way comes
See, the colours begin to peel
Feel, the dying essence of this world
Is this an illusion or is this a dream?
Draped in sorrow
Bleeding serenity
It has come for me
Trembling flesh
I see death

Lifeless Ocean

|
I'd give it all away for another day
Another day to wash away my sins
I see death you stalk me
For every life that haunts me
Closer
Closer you get
Oh, my kingdom
I won’t let you crumble
If only i could start again
I promise this will be the last attempt
These words in my mind are fading away
Like an ocean losing its waves
Always attempting to crawl upon the shores
Never to succeed
Never!
“You’re lost within
Your mind decays
You’re lost
1000 times you’ve tried
Lost this war every time
Just take my hand
I can make it end
Pass on at last
Leave this battlefield in the past”
These words in my mind are finding away
Like the ocean losing its waves
Always attempting to crawl upon the shores
Should i shake the hand of death
And meet my fate?
Relive
Try again
Or End this masquerade

Dark Sand
03:41
|
|||
|
Colours bleed into black and white
Structure falls apart
Oh, this sanctuary begins to fade
This decision is something i can't evade
Crumbling all around me
Breaking every part of me
Even inside my own mind
The End is nigh
Lost in the in between
The sands of time slip back into motion
Reality comes crashing down
"Decide, do you want to go back, do it all again?
just give up this is the end, let go, just let this go
this is the end"
I stare as his recycled words glaze over my ears
Unconsciousness creeps over me
Sinking down
Through the ground
I've made my choice
