  • Razors cross across our face, Chained to the desire to be clean; To relive floating towards emptiness, The water never cooperated Hands cross our hearts Of hopes crossing our tides. Those looking for openness freezing; Who could save such hopeless souls? Never again, the ship sunk below the surface, Thought the unsinkable banners meant forever…

  • I fell in love with the sound of the river So I swam in love with the current pushing me away I just wanted to fall in love, I loved the sound of it all, didn’t I? I was so far away before I found rock bottom And through the trees all I could see…

  • In your absence, I’ve finally become fond of myself again In Your Absence A place in the heart, May forever be A place where our love was All of the nights gone by won’t be the forgotten ones Exposed, Cold lies to the truth A forgotten face, Forgot how to live in this broken place…

  • I walked these streets, Looking for the cracks I tripped on as a kid To find it’s all been replaced It’s what we’ve been moving on Unfamiliar sounds of ghosts I said I was never scared, Never free Body plays host I don’t recognize you anymore Now I just see a shadow, with a frame…

  • A world painted in black and white, Nights long fears, shades slip away from light Distilled and brewed, Broken and bruised Silence carries letters various and unknown A face painted in hate spilled Heart lost in fate filled Twins screaming we don’t look the same As glass breaks we all feel that pain Sensible words,…

  • If the fumes weren’t enough, The blood vessels explode Like iron meets the pavement This inner machine was made to corrode Ignite a spark, It wants to burn But this city was built with matches And the phosphorus air was not made for breathing It pumps like the waves that took you under, An organ…

  • An empty space is all I need, A place alone with you I see Somebody dug up a hole And told me it will become my home Walking alone, all I can see is the stars, Looking down so brightly, Glowing where your smile used to hide They replaced it with stone, Turned around and…

  • Finally you have seen the vision, The world wouldn’t stop us from spinning Gravity can’t hit us here I could dive into your seas and find the entire ocean Down below the world is the void of being open We could lose it all in a flash Should you feel to leave, Just wait until…
