Cut off from you no more remembered
Cut off from you though I surrendered
Cut off from you my joy is ended
Darkness is my closest friend
Burning hands my lovers beat me
Burning hearts my friends forsake me
Burning eyes I know you see me
I’m numb I’m blind I’m left for dead
I know you’re watching
You know that I know that you put me here
Does the dead rise up to greet thee
Does your wrath lay heavy on me
Will this pain and sorrow stay me
I’m a man who has no strength
Shadows rise all around me
Shadows fall all inside me
Shadows reign and embrace me
Out of light the darkness comes

And I will take your love
regardless of the cost
Destroy your purity
‘till your innocence is lost
Toad upon the grass
waiting patiently
Jack Daniels for my Mass
and shotgun dignity
Cartoon background noise
solitaire by candlelight
Jagged metal in my spine
and blood dripping from the bite
Tell me where are you
in this muddled disarray
Don’t you hear their cries for me
in the simple words they say
Praying for me in this place
concrete and steel cell
All the loneliness and pain
two doors down from hell
They abuse me twice a day
and I’ve tried so hard to resist
I think about the dreams I had
and all the goals I’ve missed
Sure I said I was sorry
but you know I think I lied
I love my evil wicked ways
and I don’t care you died
And tell me where are you
I said the prayer and I asked you in
But all I want to do is return to my sin
Don’t you want to change this beast
I’m still the vulture snake
Won’t you take this heart of stone
and save me from the fire lake
They say that you forgive
something about a second chance
You know that’s what I need
you know my circumstance
Sprawled out in this stall
all naked used and confused
Am I just a worthless life
meant to be abused
Before you give your pardon Jesus
think twice about the state I’m in
When all I want to do is return to my sin
Return to my sin and start all over again

Nothing Is Nothing

Planets rise and wind blows sound
Leaves are scattered lost and found to be
Raise our hands all glory bound
Lives are shattered lost and found like me
I wish that you could give me peace
Cared enough wipe these tears and bloodshot eyes
Throw your net I’m on the other side
Not so tough full of fear and foolish pride
Stay my soul
I don’t love you need you want you
Go away I won’t cave I’m here suffering
All alone with and without you
Another day of self-inflicted suffering
I’m not giving in
Vagabond beggar castaway
Slurred and fallen all the things I say
Sand spayed neutered and turned to grey
I’m not the same when you’re away

A Letter to Charlie Pace

Replace the strings a thousand times the old guitar still rings
I play this on the radio You All Everybody sings
Ironic that we learn to swim so we can learn to drown
LOST to everything the lonely aliens come down
I’m alive
The duty of a brother see my future stay my fate
Alive without and dead within are there memories we hate
The plunge awaits our separate fates a painted mystery
You never LOST you never fell my mistakes are all redeemed
Everything I ever said to you was true
You know you can trust me
Trust my words trust my heart trust my love
You know how close we are how far we’ve come
And where we are going together
Always together
Deep within your eyes I swear I pull you’re lines apart
Stop and stare the naked bare love within my heart
Together we are so complete LOST in the mystery
I am your trust you’re my desire And we were meant to be

The Everdark Part I
04:28

He rips her from their arms
She becomes his only charge
Her speech and skin are strange
Unheard unseen above the earth
Binding her wounds
He places a mask upon her face
Hiding her thus
A promise to her he makes
Together they ride
To find the road the below
Leading them down
The light dissolves into the Everdark
Her people in revolt
The presence of an outsider
His love will keep him there
In chains for her he will not bow
Her heart has softened to
His trust his strength his sacrifice
Until the end
She becomes all there is for him
Until the end
He becomes all there is for her

This song is a secret
This song’s for you
This song is the sound of my heart
Beating broken
There’s a piece of me missing
Could it be you?
This song is a secret
This song’s for you
This song is the sound of my heart
Beating broken
Is there a piece of you missing?
Could it be me?
Your voice is the most beautiful thing
That I have ever heard

The Death of Irial

Wierzyłam, że śnię
Wkraczając w ciemną knieję
By zmierzyć się ze strachem
By zmierzyć się z kłamstwem
Wiedziałam, że umrę
Ale moje dziecko/dziecię będzie żyć
I saw the wind
Felt it blow right through me
Tearducts dry
I hope that you don’t see me
Cold and shivering
The moon awoke
And led me to the forest
Where I cannot see
So I embrace the darkness
Courage has failed
She rose above
A dragon most deceiving
Eyelids closed
I raised my hands believing
That I would live again
