Strings Attached 03:48
lyrics
buy track
Plucked these strings that you left me A melody of a ghost on empty Plucked these strings that you left me A melody of a ghost on empty This unfamiliar solitude bounces words you can’t repeat I have been listening These strings are deafening - incomplete This light is blinding me, don’t you see? I’m melting in your imagery You’ll never see what you did to me Lost fragment burdens my heavy air Old habits and heavy hearts beyond repair Broken, beyond repair Broken You saw the colour blank or not You felt the warmth that I have forgot You heard what I could never say Speak to me through broken strings You saw the colour blank or not You felt the warmth that I have forgot You heard what I could never say Speak to me Silence in this crowded room (It’s deafening, left me attuned) I’m yelling, but it's too soon (Your faith left you immune) Just listen, I’ll do the same Set fire to an open flame This unfamiliar solitude bounces words you can’t repeat I have been listening This unfamiliar solitude bounces words you can’t repeat I have been listening These strings are deafening - incomplete This light is blinding me, don’t you see?

Feeding Lies 05:17
lyrics

The pain that talks to me, is louder than before. All of my good intentions, Feel easy to ignore Echos of a time forgotten, Blows through the wind. This weeping faith, Reminisces a not-so distant grin Have you heard the story in my eyes, feeding lies How you, made me dull my shine Why I, let you lose my mind I thought that I could confide, into your arms but to my demise It’s all just a mystery; a never-ending history Do you see what you did to me? I’m better off without you I’m better off with you Neverminding symptoms, too blind For my own insight Never leaving breadcrumbs, outright, Oh what an oversight The city lights would shine so bright. You shut them off, Just like I thought you might, feeding lies Everything that I’ve had Everything that I’ve done You stole my sense of self, and never gave it back I’m nothing but a shell; an artifact Memories of what was left, will die with me What I’ve done or who I am now, nobody Nothing Echoes of a time forsaken, Blows through the wind Now I’m finding a place to sleep Sinking slowly into the deep You stole my sense of self, and never gave it back Now I’m nothing but a shell; an artifact How you, made me dull my shine Why I, let you lose my mind I thought that I could confide, into your arms but to my demise It’s all just a mystery; a never-ending history Do you see what you did to me? I’m better off without you Echoes of a time forgotten Blows through the wind Now I’m finding a place to sleep Sinking slowly into the deep The city lights would shine so bright You shut them off, Just like I thought you might, feeding lies

Black Lotus 04:59
lyrics
buy track
I am a ghost, but only when you let me Reminiscing of what I used to be So long - alone and forgotten Headstone of a man I have known Circling a phantom in the shadows Out of sight and out of mind But in the darkness I have found Our complete lack of common ground Don’t forget me, when I’m gone Don’t forget me, when I’m gone I never wanted life to end this way I can see the pain that tears us apart Every line of my living counterpart I’ll never live it down How could I ever fucking live this down? How could I ever call this living? The final black lotus dies and withers away Only to be lost and dead the same I never thought that I’d surrender in my own hell Frozen no longer I bid my last farewell And in my final moments, you told me this was my apocalypse I can see the pain that tears us apart Every line of my living counterpart Nothing but regrets of what I have done All this time but right back where I begun I am a ghost, but only when you let me Reminiscing of what I used to be So long - alone and forgotten Headstone of a man I have known Circling a phantom in the shadows Out of sight and out of mind But in the darkness I have found Our complete lack of common ground I am nothing but a ghost

Metastasis 04:14
lyrics
buy track
I can still hear the screaming I can still feel that something’s wrong After all these years, of what you’ve done - I’m not afraid Could you blame a dog who kills a threat? Like your past leaves you a silhouette A design of failure can’t sustain The final glimpse of hope dies in vain Lie to me, then bury me alive Lie to me then bury me alive Guaranteed the cycle finds its time A dream to a fucking nightmare, it’s all I’ve ever known Pretending that I ever did care, it’s all I’ve ever shown I can still hear the screaming, I can still feel that something’s missing Clawing at the walls just to feel safe Your comfort became an acquired taste I’m stuck in a nightmare Seasons changing and so are you Colder than the winter’s blue I’m stuck in a nightmare You gave me nothing but borrowed time An artificial debt you thought was mine You turned a moment into forever Thinking you would drag us down together Reflecting, disconnecting Another shadow slipping away Just a spirit now left to decay Lie to me then bury me alive Guaranteed the cycle finds its time A dream to a fucking nightmare, it’s all I’ve ever known Pretending that I ever did care, it’s all I’ve ever shown I can still hear the screaming, I can still feel that something’s missing Clawing at the walls just to feel safe Your comfort became an acquired taste

Conscious 04:34
lyrics
buy track
Inside his cell he’s broken Begging to be unchained But for his cage to open He must embrace the pain (A life in vain) Rock bottom is here to last The first stone again recast Locked up - stripped down Barren wasteland Abandoned, and pushed to the edge Left to die and there, bled What I am fell nothing short of this damaged man Only for, the one to save me - mutilate me Buried in toxicity with no plan of escape Falling into black holes, forcing me into this shape Terrified - fears are conjured Rotting night - underwater Abandoned, and pushed to the edge Left to die and there, bled Spit me out and say that you’ll save me I am the one who would succumb I am desperation, I am rock bottom I am desperation, I am rock bottom I am desperation of everything that you know I was rock bottom, but now i'm sinking through the floor I am desperation, I am rock bottom
