Void seeps through fissure
Fissure to bone
Skull rattles silent
Grey seeps on what I own
Swallow the shame
That makes you ill
Ripple of the eye
The things Im meant to kill
I only worship what bleeds

Molting Fear

Weak soul,
begs to bleed
Made for nothing
but to kneel to me
Drain the spirit
Molting fear
lives in a gutter
Words meant to sear
A broken mutter
Swallow the shame
that makes you ill
Look in the eye
the things Im meant to kill
Ive bowed before
I refuse again
Fear of death
Burned in the skin
I only worship what bleeds
Void seeps through fissure
Fissure to bone
skull rattles silent
Control what I own
Fear is the restraint
and you wont be set free

Glimmer (ft. Holy Fawn)

Through bloodshot eyes
in the pale light
something tender
gives way
I peel the skin
a glimmer of sensation
a shrill pride
we degrade with time
i peel the skin
a glimmer of sensation
primitive
tangled in desire
made for me alone
when the last steps toppled
hope to feel home
trace around the seams
under light, flesh gleams
through velvet theres flesh and bone
all we hope to own
degradation
comes crawling near
through rusted eyes
we shed fear

The son of a bastard
I can never be free
Wrong side of the tracks
See it when I bleed
What I cant pay
My blood will
Caustic souls
Made to feel
Living in an echo chamber of violence
Sinking in, clawing at the silence
When the mind slips
Become a dog with no teeth
A tomb in the country
A life in the street
What I cant pay
My blood will
Caustic souls
Made to feel
Vi coactus
All I fear is carved in stone
every choice cuts to the bone
There’s peace when you know what you are
Lead to the end by another’s scars
The links in the chain are only meant to bleed
Flayed words

suffering is the only noble way
mark the lines of a lichen covered ego
cast a shadow that follows us home
a flash of light scatters hope
find what we need in the bottom of a well
descend the winding stairs, not a being to tell
face to face with eternity
what i feel is draped in certainty
godless
entangled in strength is a thread of spite
and what road you take won’t affect mine
im at the bottom of the pit but i see myself win
every choice made is covered in sin

where rust meets earth
and moss grows thick
contempt and pain brings decay
and the mist never quits
nothing will ever change
the rust remains the same
the city grows cold and grey
through darkness and bitter days
murk enveloped
and left to rot
mold filled lungs
and pointed thoughts
what’s it worth
when it stays the same
a tired story
washed with shame
in the shadow of
under the bridge
a shadow waits
nothing will ever change
the rust remains the same
concrete and apathy
live with the blame
To compromise is to die
the rain comes I bide my time
you can never win
living innocent
blank stares
no one seems to care
doomtown

Wither

A soft feeling could break me
the pieces fall away from there
all it could be
and whats for them
there’s an ache
that never seems to dull
whats worse than death
is to be defeated
I’ve done my time
struggled with the meaning
to endure is to be free
and every part I rip away
only bleeds
everyone has a choice
and I’ve made mine
held fate in my hands
watch it wither with time
ill make greener pastures
a place for the seed
in times of fear and sorrow
Ill file my teeth
What I cant touch means nothing to me
with the dirt lined up
everyone chokes
Ill take my beating
scratch these words in my bones
never a victim of what came before me

Blue Morning

The skin can fall away
It wont change it for me
The grey filled
Blue morning
We found a place
and in the mist it lead us home
I don't know what washes away
and death is what I carry with me
Blue morning
In time I hope to wash a stain covered soul away

forgiven now
no to cross to bare
a final exit
nothing left to snare
a last goodbye
would be a gift
but chances are
it won’t be like this
what i lost to time
you lost too
every scar of the heart
a worry come true
forgiven now
no to cross to bare
a final exit
nothing left to snare
in a desperate moment,
We could be the same
but all signs ask
who’s the owner of the pain?
i
Ill sift through the dirt
for the last time
no longer picking wounds
no longer toe the line
it died with you

Spire Of Fear

I’m crucified between two thieves
A regret for the past
And a fear of the future
Hope falls like silver rain
Molding the suture
Pinned in a chasm
A mirror is your prison
Every cry echoes out
All refuse to listen
Shy from ownership
Feel it in every breath
With every lesson unlearned
God wont come with age
These lesions of the spirit
Give way to silent rage
Down a cloaked path
Listen for the words
I’ve held the weight of knowing
And begged for what I earned
To hesitate is to die
Paralysis trickles down the neck
I knelt before the Spire Of Fear
And the misery was swept away
I felt the void seep through fissure
And my soul go the other way
A fear of the future
Hope falls like silver rain
In the time to come
sorrow could await
As I face eternity
I’ll never turn away
Spire of fear

Projections of the past
You refuse to leave
Reject tradition
Live with condition
A disciple who refuses to believe
Spit on what you think I should be
