Why did you have to die? You left me broken and alone with a long life. How could you watch me fall to pieces? If you don't know who you are at this point, find yourself something to lose. If you don't know who you were before, disengage, start anew. How could you watch me crumble? Over my faith did I slip and stumble. How could you watch me claw the skin right off my bones? If you don't know who you are at this point, find yourself something to lose. If you don't know who you were before, disengage, start anew. I watched you fall to pieces, again and again. I won't let you die without a fight. If you don't know who you are at this point, find yourself something to lose. If you don't know who you were before, disengage, start anew.

Glass Waves 03:06
This could be the turning point, A ship sailed towards redemption and the prospect of a new day. I've reached far beyond my breaking point, Padded walls closed in and crushed her bones, the sky and sea turned grey. She won't call me by my first name. My faith was resisted by my intuition. Our vessel capsized, we swallowed salt, and you were dying fast. I ripped my hand from yours, I watched you sink, and I floated away. She won't call me by my first name. My faith was resisted by my intuition. She's falling away from the surface. She's falling away. The solace of the sea couldn't alter the loss of my love and the enveloping of hate. I'm floating away. I'm floating away from the burden. I'm floating away.

She came in with a "come-and-get-me" grin. She swallowed all her sins whole and kept them. Within her smile, was a cry, a crave for pity. She fled from the wilderness, and learned to fuck the city. Lights, sounds, desperate creatures in the jungle, jungle boys and girls. Nestled in the strangling arms of a mother, a child masked from what's outside. You won't bleed the love from your daughter. Let her be free, let her be. She lives imprisoned by her emotions. Latched onto her neck, they feed. You won't bleed the love from your daughter. Let her be free, let her be. I keep my expectations buried beneath the floorboards with her remains. Lights, sounds, desperate creatures in the jungle, jungle boys and girls. Nestled in the strangling arms of a mother, a child masked from what's outside. You won't bleed the love from your daughter. Let her be free, let her be. She lives imprisoned by her emotions. Latched onto her neck, they feed. You won't bleed the love from your daughter. Let her be free, let her be. I don't think I'll notice you for long. Nestled in the strangling arms of a mother, a child masked from what's outside. You won't bleed the love from your daughter. Let her be free, let her be. She lives imprisoned by her emotions. Latched onto her neck, they feed. You won't bleed the love from your daughter. Let her be free, let her be

Mood Ring 03:56
If I showed you all that I'm made of, would you turn your back and walk away? So fall, just fall like you'd always imagined when you were young and safe. So young, so safe. It was worth it just to hear you say "I want you and nothing's ever felt this way". Was it worth it just to hear me say "I want you and nothing's going to change"? But things you know they change. If I gave you every ounce of my love, would you throw it back into my face? So many letters and images not worth the words, but I still can't seem to make you stay. It was worth it just to hear you say "I need you and nothing's ever felt this way". Was it worth it just to hear me say "I need you and nothing's going to change"? But things you know they change. Things you know they change. I claimed that you couldn't save me if you tried. To you, that was the first and only time I had lied. Things you know they change, but this feeling still remains. I'd die just to know you'd stay forever young and safe.

Born into half of a body, desperate to be realigned. 8 limbs, 2 tongues, redefining false design. Separation magnetizing a reunion of golden souls. Reassembled at hip and mouth, dispel your demons, welcome home. Every day that you spent searching for the womb of your rebirth. Preserving every sacred organ just to show her what she's worth. Exhaling all of the darkness dissipates Beauty personifies, dead dreams animate. Defeated from the moment she came. Now we're sound and safe, you're the one I'll follow. Locked hands til our old age, and never letting go. I'll bring you back to life. You're not alone. Comfort in love is sheltered inside. I keep reaching for a way out when the love is not enough. I've been dancing in the dark for far too long. My tongue is yet to tire from her first name. Infinite desire, come for my last name. Defeated from the moment she came. Now we're sound. I'll bring you back to life. You're not alone. Comfort in love is sheltered inside. I keep reaching for a way out when the love is not enough. I've been dancing in the dark for far too long. I've been hanging on a heart when I'm not strong. I've been dancing in the dark for far too long. All my love, can you feel it? I'll bring you back to life. You're not alone. Comfort in love is sheltered inside. I keep reaching for a way out when the love is not enough. I've been dancing in the dark for far too long. I've been hanging on a heart when I'm not strong. I've been dancing in the dark for far too long.

Skin Cult 03:57
You can taunt me with your body, and I'll erect my canines. Drain the fluids from your thirsty body, teeth to neck, we entwine. Howl at the moon for the first time in your everlasting life. Howl at the moon and be reborn again and again. Dismiss sin. This is rebirth. Connected at the hips, cerebrally and physically entwined. My calloused fingers outstretched along your ribs. My calloused fingers down your spine. Howl at the moon for the first time in your everlasting life. Howl at the moon. Your rewritten virtue, aborting the midwife. This is rebirth. Hands so soft, now cracked and broken. Clench rope tightly, legs wide open. Tell me, are you scared as I peel off your skin, slip right in, and stretch you out? Are you fucking scared? You shouldn't be, because I am you and you are me. Howl at the moon. Abort the midwife for the first time in your life.

Rainmaker 03:58
Rainmaker, why have you forsaken me? You taint my walls with dripping shadows, trapped in a love I can't keep. Storm chaser, the one who bears my seed. Storm chaser, leave. I know of virtues I can't hold. Could you go tonight with me? Give our dreams to sons and daughters. Rainmaker, you just love to watch me lose. Persistent upon your blessing, grant me love I can't refuse. The purest form of beauty may bear an omen in between, but the grey, the saturation, made her look just like a dream. I know of virtues I can't hold. Could you go tonight with me? Despite who I have been, I hope you show some faith in me. Don't slip from my reach. Give our dreams to sons and daughters. You'll never break these walls again. You'll never break these walls. I know of virtues I can't hold. Could you go tonight with me? Despite who I have been, I hope you show some faith in me. Don't slip from my reach. Rainmaker, why have you forsaken me? Rainmaker, please.

Demons 03:16
I hope that you don't mind if I settle into the stems of your troubled mind and watch your soul slowly decline. Someone, somewhere, prays that you make it out alive. Say the word any time, move those fingers, they're yours and mine. I'll contort your limbs with ease to the rhythm of my disease. For every devil that you shake, lies another coiled in the warmth of your embrace, never meant to escape. Someone, somewhere, loved you child. They left you to save your own life. Now demons pull at the teeth of a soul never set free. Say the word any time, move those fingers, they're yours and mine. I'll contort your limbs with ease to the rhythm of my disease. Say the word any time, as I linger in your mind. There's nothing else for me to be, besides the needles in your feet.
