The Dream
04:25

Do you ever dream of dying just to pass the time?
I lay at night and stare ahead and wonder why I still try
I lay and wait for the coming moment if it takes me all night,
To finally cry myself away into a dream that’s all mine
Do you find it hard to love
When you’re all I ever dream of,
But you’re still not enough?
Does the pain keep you up at night?
I know, because it’s haunts me too
We can share this plight
I wake screaming in the night
A light beyond the veil greets my mind's eye
Shame, singing in the dark
I want to bleed out until the dawn
Lead me to the blade
I know you know the way
I can face the flames
Take me to that painless place
And I know you know the way
What will you say?

The Misery

In your bed
For the last time
You’re turned away
When you said
I cannot love
It broke my heart
Show me
A life without the pain
Hold me
'Til I don’t feel this way
In your head
All the time
You’ve nothing to say
No matter what
No matter how long
I couldn’t be the one you wanted holding you
What you found in me was nothing like you
Or anything you could possibly love
It’s a weak heart that holds on so long
To everything that comes with the misery of us

The Ascent
03:55

Ignite your faith
Ignite your gods
See what good it does
See what happens next
There’s nothing holding us
There’s no rope to pull us back up
Trapped in a fire
In a house with no exits
There’s nothing left for us to do
There’s no time on our side
I hear your scream
Ringing through the ash
I see your silhouette
A pale form in the amber glow of the walls
I reach for your hand
Nothing there
We sit and wait for the flames to meet your flesh and mine

The Sacrifice
02:32
|

I’ve only loved the stars
When they remind me of your eyes
If you’re not the word of god
Then god never spoke
It’s clear to me
I’ve found my peace
For a lifetime
In memories

The Memory
04:22
|
|||
A light through the window of a room I used to know
Shines on a picture of a couple long ago
I wonder why I stand here, in some altered memory
It was never this serene, at least not for me
And I don’t want to know about the songs you’ve sung
About the loves you had and lost
Nor the times you’ve spent alone
And I don’t want to know about all the good you’ve done
These past few years without me
It just hurts too much
Alone in an old room with someone I hardly loved
So why do I feel sorrow for something that never was?
I wish I could forget everything I’ve ever learned
About you and your life and the time from me you stole
Someday you will forget all about me
But you will always be stuck in my memory
