Use Your Pain
03:10

Hate will dictate my approach to this place
I will hate these interactions,
hate the conclusions you draw
I will hate the joys of others,
hate so much it makes me sick
A part of me has left
and it’s never coming back
A heart that must defend
becomes the heart that must attack
Hate so much it makes me sick,
but sickness is weakness
and I hate weakness
A part of me has left
and it’s never coming back
A heart that must defend
becomes the heart that must attack
Use your pain
I know you’re hurting
I just don’t care

Cut After Cut

I am in your life,
you’re not in mine
I live alone in the
dark of my mind
I don’t have visitors
I don’t have visions
I count the days
with a brand new incision
Cut after cut
Say goodbye
Life slips out of my hands
No love to relieve
what I have set in motion
Molting heart
I’ve been dissected again
No love, just two teeth
You know what I must do
No love, just two teeth
You know what I must do
I am painting with the blood
that pours from your arm
Something depicting
the way you used to feel
The red brings out emotion
that other colors won’t do
What is blood to you?
What is blood to you?
What is blood to anyone?
I will write these black words down
and when you wake your heart will be free
Who am I to you?
Who am I to anybody?
The flowers may sway as if something is there,
but there isnt

Die Silent
05:21

There’s love in the violence
that tears a man apart
and mercy in the breaking
of a promise made to harm
There’s calm in the silence
of the end set to start
and mercy in the breaking
of a wide and lonely heart
I’ve never known something that cant be broken
I've never known, never wanted, never tried
Just because I close my eyes
Doesn’t mean it’s still not there
Cos you cant escape from something
when it’s part of you
You take it with you everywhere
No, you cant escape from something
when it’s part of you
until your final gasp of air
Few people laugh
Few people cry
Most people die silent
When you see me again
it won’t be me
Let’s tear this man apart
No mercy in the breaking
of a coward’s yellow heart
No patience for the bloodshed
I’ll start, never end
I’ll take your tongue our first cos
it doesnt matter when
most people die silent

Just Dirt
04:23
|

If only I could rip you into air
The wind is rising
Candlelight dies
A braid of fog
unbound
God knows I’ve tried to stop it
God knows I’ve tried and tried
I am at the bottom of my life
Shifting inside me
like ice on water
Clouds cross the silence
in a circle dance,
in a circling dance
May you follow my shadow forever
Shifting inside me
like ice on water
Clouds cross the silence
in a circle dance,
in a circling dance
No floor, just dirt
No windows, just the door
hung open for light
If only I could…
