Twisted
Breaking under tasteless reason and sanity.
Slitting the throats for their insanity.
I'm nothing but a dead man!
No strength to stand.
Missing the minutes I killed without a second thought.
Just your average pet project.
Perversion's got an appetite,
Keep it trapped inside and you might just die.
There's simply no end,
To this twisted master plan.
Slitting the throats for their insanity.
I'm nothing but a dead man!
No strength to stand.
Missing the minutes I killed without a second thought.
Just your average pet project.
Perversion's got an appetite,
Keep it trapped inside and you might just die.
There's simply no end,
To this twisted master plan.

Which One is Really Me?
Stop living within me!
There's nothing to see.
Hide me away from me,
I'm my own worst enemy.
Falter me while I am cold.
There's nothing here,
But my own stone soul to hold.
It's me that I fear.
How can I escape my grasp?
When it holds to tightly,
I'm stuck in it's clasp.
I'm dying in fire brightly.
Why does no one look within,
I'm sitting alone again,
Just beneath the fucking skin.
It's just a matter of when.
It's planning something, I know,
I can tell when it's plotting.
This terrified look isn't for...
There's nothing to see.
Hide me away from me,
I'm my own worst enemy.
Falter me while I am cold.
There's nothing here,
But my own stone soul to hold.
It's me that I fear.
How can I escape my grasp?
When it holds to tightly,
I'm stuck in it's clasp.
I'm dying in fire brightly.
Why does no one look within,
I'm sitting alone again,
Just beneath the fucking skin.

Death's Bed Time Stories (collab)
I'm as old as I ever am
And as young as I ever will be.
But what am I doing with this life of mine?
I ask myself,
But all that comes out is a strangled choke
And a satisfied goodbye.
I'm not worth the air I breathe
Yet here I stand
With nothing underneath.
Am I dead yet?
I like to ask,
But only because I like the pain I feel
When I answer no.
I close my eyes,
Soaking in this open relationship
I favor with death.
But he never comes through
And takes me to hell,
Just makes me listen
To all the stories he can't tell....
And as young as I ever will be.
But what am I doing with this life of mine?
I ask myself,
But all that comes out is a strangled choke
And a satisfied goodbye.
I'm not worth the air I breathe
Yet here I stand
With nothing underneath.
Am I dead yet?
I like to ask,
But only because I like the pain I feel
When I answer no.
I close my eyes,
Soaking in this open relationship
I favor with death.
But he never comes through
And takes me to hell,
Just makes me listen
To all the stories he can't tell....

Break Again
center]Giving up on me? I see,
I'd do it if you were me.
I'm not pretty like she is,
But don't leave me without a kiss.
I'll never hold you back,
If it's your life's track.
But there's no point to me crying,
When I'd rather be dying.
I'm not smart like he is,
I don't blame you for leaving this.
I wouldn't like to stay,
With someone like me anyway.
I think you should go,
I think you should know,
That's it not her you'll need,
It's the girl you've never seen.
I've been right by your side,
Lending...

Two Sixth Senses and a Broken Limb
In a world where a creature such as myself is misunderstood
Under a watchful eye I'm starting to wish I really could
Forget your eyes, your sickening lies, your fake cries
I'm in love with the person you've only presented to me
I've never caught a glimpse of that person underneath
The hard shell, the glance of hell, you don't ring a bell
But I've found that I've given up everything I own to you
This part of me, under a rusty lock and key, so under used
Your skin, knee deep in, the soul that's deep within
But I can't forget the way you held my...

Doesn't Sound the Same
I can't stop, what's there to stop?
My fingers keep moving on the strings,
Playing with a bow that cuts them off.
Blue strings aren't all that strong,
But it's okay, I knew it all along.
I play with all the sadness I carry so far.
But the strings are breaking now,
And these aren't the tears I tried not to cry,
And blue strings are just lonely blue veins.
You can't play a violin
On your arm with only a blade,
It just doesn't sound the same.
My fingers keep moving on the strings,
Playing with a bow that cuts them off.
Blue strings aren't all that strong,
But it's okay, I knew it all along.
I play with all the sadness I carry so far.
But the strings are breaking now,
And these aren't the tears I tried not to cry,
And blue strings are just lonely blue veins.
You can't play a violin
On your arm with only a blade,
It just doesn't sound the same.

Lake Side Path
I can't walk this lonely road,
But it may be the only road I know,
I can't tell where I'll go,
But I'm sure I figure it out one day.
One day when I decide I'm worth the price to save,
Maybe worth the grace.
But that day isn't today,
So leave me alone to drown in this lake.
But it may be the only road I know,
I can't tell where I'll go,
But I'm sure I figure it out one day.
One day when I decide I'm worth the price to save,
Maybe worth the grace.
But that day isn't today,
So leave me alone to drown in this lake.

Murdered in the Home
You're not the person I trusted with my life,
You're not the person who calls me their wife,
You're just the person holding the knife.
Murdered in my own, now bloody, home.
How do you live without your own soul?
You lie to my face while cutting me with holes.
You're not the person who calls me their wife,
You're just the person holding the knife.
Murdered in my own, now bloody, home.
How do you live without your own soul?
You lie to my face while cutting me with holes.

Hadn't
Empty stares and blanker conversations.
Have we not moved on from mental patients?
You make me sick sometimes,
And yet I stomach these times.
Not for my sake, but for yours,
Cleaning up after you is a chore,
But it's still my job,
I took it on.
Now I really wish I hadn't.

Love
you've betrayed me in ways I can't scream at night, I can't go back, this is my heart attack. I'm dying in the middle of self proclaimed vanity. Who's heart did I find had gone missing. I can't believe I'm still standing even while the world is spinning. I'm tripping over planets that are throwing themselves out of alignment just to stand in my way. What am I flying for? Was the sky ever not in war? With itself and the beckoning of the world of people, jumping higher and higher, just to touch the silk she is. Let her down gently, we're casting holes in her brilliance already. She screams the...

Going Down
Fuck you and your overwhelming fuck face,
You can only curse because you don't know the taste.
You've never been looked at with eyes of scorn,
You've never felt your heart when it's torn.
Don't pretend you know anything about life my dear,
I'm your best friend, I know what you fear.
You can push me away with your anger and malice,
But in the end it's me who will win the chalice.
I may look benign and no danger to your social status,
But darling I can do anything with this madness.
Who was it that talked you off the ledge...
You can only curse because you don't know the taste.
You've never been looked at with eyes of scorn,
You've never felt your heart when it's torn.
Don't pretend you know anything about life my dear,
I'm your best friend, I know what you fear.
You can push me away with your anger and malice,
But in the end it's me who will win the chalice.
I may look benign and no danger to your social status,
But darling I can do anything with this madness.
Who was it that talked you off the ledge...

Kaleidoscope
My mind's a kaleidoscope, it thinks too fast
Blurs all the colors 'til I can't see past
The last mistake, the choice I made
Staring in the mirror with myself to blame
Sometimes I'm afraid of the thoughts inside
Nowhere to hide inside my mind
I'm scared that you'll compare and I'll look a lifetime past repair
I second guess myself to death, I re-solicit every step
What if my words are meaningless? What if my heart's misleading this?
I try to capture every moment as it comes to me
Bottle up the memories and let them keep me company
When...
