Go. Carry on tearing off.
Make it bleed.
Write poison in the dark
Where you’re safe.
Feast on the response. Now
Hate found a voice
Found the words
Found a screen
Feast on the response. Now.
Crying all the wolves
Lend lies to the truth
Your fanning all the flames
Without a name. Without a face.
No one’s born heartless, craven.
Buried blind.
We always stand in our own way.
What’s left - after shame? after guilt? - of us?
Troll
Crying all the wolves
Lend lies to the truth
Your fanning all the flames
Without a name, without a face.
Who are you?

Sing the wrong note.
Head up, shoulders back.
Veer off the road,
Got maps but no route
Tear out the page - start a new verse
For no one.
Call it a day.
Tomorrow’s just fine to
Crawl back,
Crawl back again and face it down.
Crawl back,
Crawl back again and close the delta.
Stray from the path
Bring back new light
Uproot the weeds choking all growth
Toward the sky and
Crawl back,
Crawl back again and face it down.
Crawl back,
Crawl back again and close the delta.
Tomorrow never comes.
Lows and highs of
Joys and lies of
Our belief that we’ll find
A way to there.
Crawl back,
Crawl back again and face it down.
Crawl back,
Crawl back again and close the delta.

Metal Fossils

Abandoned places are where we’ll go
Open and wide
Chemical lights
Metal fossil skyline
Nameless intentions
Desolate known
Metal fossil skyline
You’ll go down for this
Wild and reckless
Scar the sky
Destroy night
Chemical Lights
Bring your mask
Poison. Poison.
Pack your bags,
Poison. Poison
You’re not alone,
Poison. Poison.
Running pristine.
Destroyed and
Gone.

Sleepless nights and endless days
My home’s so far away
Landscapes passing, trapped on trains
Rewriting what i’d say
I found you there
Reflected in the glass
All the moments float away
Been dizzy, in a daze
Dark clouds rose the rain came down now
Time to germinate
I found you there
Reflected in the glass
I found you there
But that moment passed
Ripped from the ground, growing new roots
I’m gone from here
Don’t have to worry, water and sun
I’m gone from here
Endless days.

I see you in the shadows
Hiding from pain and darkness
You see me, in your likeness
But you have gone too far
How’s that working out for you?
I see you
Anchored and chained
Scared to dive
in too deep.
How’s that working out for you?
It’s Always Sunny When You’re Cool
Rest in my arms
Spit in my heart

Blackest Prius

Here it comes: disaster
Closer to the flames
Feel the heat growing faster
Up close, forgot my name
Leaning toward calamity
Held fast and fiery
You have known
Taste the cold
Burn the house down
Never coming home
Romance of the risk
Love dangerous
Sold endless.
Sold youth, return.
Close my eyes to the truth
All the lessons I’ve learned
I met the Devil.
He tried to take me home
In the blackest Prius
With lies on his lips
Sold endless.
Sold youth, return.
Close my eyes to the truth
All the lessons I’ve learned

Ashes

I’m dancing, floating
In the cold, careless
Eyes ripped open unguarded
Come to me, you're so bold
We’re infected with yourself
We’re infected too far gone
Weary souls resting
Resurrected from the dream
We’re enchanted with yourself
We’re infected too far gone
Where I thought I’d lay
Ashes fill my tired lungs
I can’t breathe
We’re infected with yourself
We’re infected too far gone
We’re infected with yourself
We’re infected too far gone
Where I thought I’d lay
Ashes fill my tired lungs
I can’t breathe

Broke every heart
Devil’s loose in our house
Then they’ll leave us for dead
Traitor
Perils on our tongues
Sublime object of struggle stay pure
Light the path with burning heretics
No shelter here. No home. No rest.
They’re disappeared. Etched on their graves:
Broke every heart
Devil’s loose in our house
Then they’ll leave us for dead
Traitor
Perils on our all tongues
Border agents and spies
Informers and police
Perils of purity
Perils of piety
Inside she screams
“I should be safe here”
Gaslight the way to erasure
Fortify the walls they’re outside
Apostates will let them in
Traitor
Broke every heart
Let them inside
Circle then fire in
Keep us Pure
Perils on our tongues

Can’t Go Back

Time is going nowhere
The day bleeds into night
The road has started fade through the fog from here
I can hardly see any light
Cold seeks darkness
In my eyes
I can hardly see any light
Cold seeks darkness
In your eyes
Walk alone beyond the mountain
Stand alone. Wait for me.
Instant gratification
No need to stand still
You're on to the next idea and now you can't go back from here
I can hardly see any light
Cold seeks darkness
In your eyes
Choose where to go
Weeks are dissolving
The universe laughs
Moving nameless in a city
Never able to grasp
Will I make it out of here
Never able to grasp
Walk alone
Stand alone
Walk alone
Stand alone
Wait for me

Turning back from all these new distances
Losing sleep and choosing static
First it’s won’t, then it’s can’t
Cross the threshold
A life inside the lines
The gate closing panic
As youth keeps passing by
Spoiling meat can’t shake the stink of decay.
Neglect’s reward.
Shut the door on every new visitor
Close the shades to spite the shadows
All the lies, the years, and the effort
To keep them outside
The gate closing panic
As life whittles away
Where’ we’ve never been, we’ll never go
The gate closing panic
As time finally runs out
Where’ we’ve never been, we’ll never go
The gate closed
We can’t go
So stay home.

Private Language

Exhausted my words
Filled in every frame
Sounded the notes
To useless rhymes
Ruthless arrow of time
So let’s just work from our own lexicon, love
Work from our own lexicon
The language we learned in our youth
Always fucks up our articulation
My dad told my mom “I want to stay”
Foreign bodies came and took
His voice away
Took his voice away
Pretend talk won’t fail us
Bodies betray us
Let’s pretend the sound
Never leaves us
Speak in our own tongue, no noun for fear. Fear.
If death called our names we’d know the phrase
To steel ourselves in its gaze.
No, it’s not enough.
What could ever be?
Keep these words private
Between you and me.
I’m scared but I don’t care
I’ll stare right back in its eyes with you
There’s no word
There’s no word
For exactly how
It would feel to lose you
