Mortality 04:43
You have lost all your humanity, it seems I am picking up the pieces you’ve left behind for me to clean The shattered fragments of your memory are nearly clear to me And in time, I’ll walk away to find the mortality in me Don’t chase after me, it’s not your occupation I’m not afraid to leave behind all the things I thought were mine Look around, do you not see all the damage you have done? Go away, don’t turn back, I can’t stand you anymore I used to think that you had forgotten me But now that I know that I’m too strong to fade away from your memory You stole all I had to give to anyone But in time, I walk away to find the mortality in me

No Escape 04:23
My beloved, you can’t run away from me You mustn’t go where if you’re lost I cannot see I find your games are both amusing and unkind As if you want to mock the love of mine No escape, you’re bound to me No escape, you’re my fantasy I try to watch you when you’re almost fast asleep I close your eyes and plant a kiss upon your cheek I dream that we are lost inside of all the trees The snow will bless us from above peacefully

You can’t help but look down Let me show you the other realm Pleasure and pain Tell me, what is your master? Are you alive? It seems that you are slowly dying inside You cannot lie I will help you get away Do you think you’re fooling me? I can see how sad you have become And crying will not save you From the battles that you have not won Do you think you’re fooling me With that disgrace of a smile? You don’t have to pretend I’ll make you leave yourself for a while Come hither, venture near I see you have the desire To explore yourself And all the darkness there within You have no satisfaction Just forget the things that you hold dear And come away with me I promise that we’ll tear your soul apart

Alone 03:24
I waited for you, I watched from inside my head In a cold, dark room, my tears would bleed, I pretended to be free There was no moonlight window, just the redness of the wall I wished upon my recollection of the stars to leave it all I cannot watch, yet I cannot look away The fabric of my sanity has begun to fray I am worth so much more than this, I can’t believe it’s come to this I hope you are afraid, I hope you are ashamed I could have run away, but my journey wasn’t through All my guilt and superstition followed me to you Why can’t you look into my eyes, are you made of stone? It’s all too familiar, once again I’m left alone

Operation 05:49
I’ve forgotten who I am It’s been so long, I’m trapped in time and space But they say they have a plan What is this mask they’ve put on my face? Open her head, hope she’s not dead inside What is there left to find? Is she breathing, is her heart beating? This could be the last operation Open her head, hope she’s not dead inside The light has left her eyes Is she breathing, is her heart beating? Don’t stay asleep too long The knife moves closer to my head They puncture veins with drugs that make me fly The surgeon’s wrist begins to shake Now I feel lightness everywhere inside

Void 03:21
Trapped inside, I can’t escape So many bodies in your wake I’ll close my eyes and I won’t speak again How long till I am free? I lied to you, I do love you Everything you said is true I feel alone, I feel afraid But you’re the beauty that I crave I cannot tell, am I in hell? How long till I am free? I hate you, but I love you What more will you take from me? My heart is pounding when you’re near You see that I am full of fear The secrets inside me are true I hate you, but I love you The stars aligned for me to see You shot the arrow in my knee I couldn’t fly away And charm was deceitful, beauty fleeting

My Dear 05:58
You look so pretty there, my dear Just let me look at you, my dear I’ll make you see that it’s so clear No one adores you like I do, my dear The better to see you with, my dear The better to touch you with, my dear The better to love you with, my dear The better to eat you with, my dear Why are you crying now, my dear? In your eyes I can see the fear I promise I won’t hurt you, dear You’ll see you mustn’t run from me, dear I could not help myself, my dear I am a wolf by nature, dear I wish you were around to hear Tonight I didn’t mean to eat you, dear

Onward 05:41
Another day has passed, prisoners of the sun Crying tears of blood, why don’t we matter to anyone? Our time on earth was robbed, our spirits almost gone We mustn’t rest too long, we must carry on The weight of this burden on me is more than I can bear The pain is without compare, but this isn’t the end for us We must persevere; maybe we’ll be found Please just look around, our bones are everywhere If we do not carry our load, our fate lies in oblivion We will be forgotten among the sky and stars How could we go unnoticed? Why haven’t we been found? Though we cry out loud, you don’t seem to hear the sound Some of us have run only to be shot down We’ve seen it all around, what an awful sound The children cry alone for things they do not know Please let us be free; please let us go home
