When will I see the end of this road Leading me away from you all I have disgraced myself When will I see the end And as I look forward, My back burns from regret What can I say? If you would just hear me… When will I see the end of this road Leading me away from you all I have disgraced—disgraced myself When will I see you again? Cast out I walk in exile May the sea swallow me Lost is my heart, Lost is my soul May deserts bury me--Time, erase me Cast out (My will, my heart, my soul) I walk in exile I see it now… the end It has a face… No eyes, no faith Something I cannot explain, but it draws near I shield my view from an empty storm, I realize I don’t deserve this. Cast out I walk in exile May the sea swallow me Lost is my heart, Lost is my soul

Throes 07:01
I can’t get any closer To a source of warmth and care Pure suffering You are the parting sun Your glory fades And when you return, I only expect to be robbed of hope again I have fallen into madness How much longer can I endure? Deep in the throes I long for repose Exhausted dreams I’m torn at the seams I’ve wilted away What can I do? Just when I thought you had left forever You return again, lighting my face with joy I am your slave This world is my grave The perfect hell You are the parting sun Your glory fades You come when you please, But you fail to realize We’ve fallen together You are not free You are the parting sun I am endless space Your glory fades You cannot resist me Deep in the throes I long for repose Exhausted dreams I’m torn at the seams I’ve wilted away What can I do Without you?

Fan the blazes of inevitability With unattainable hopes They watch me from the walls Naked—exposed What is life without trust? Will they ever die, and turn to dust? I am doomed... trapped Until the end of time Bloodless, ashen skin Glares that turn hair gray Appetite for slumber A communion of sleep The infamy of blackened crowns Rule the living “Weaklings born to die” The world is a bottomless trench Where damaged souls climb To reach the surface, And feel the heat of a fabled sun That may not be there This cruel idea is strength To the worn minds Who cling unknowingly Unmerciful lords I seek thy blind eye Bury me deep in shadows Forget me, leave me Please... I will sleep forever Out of the light End my suffering

Enamored 05:38
Shine the light of truth, Upon a shadow long and pale O greatest destroyer, I bow to thee never Ravager Extend your sickened hand Enrapture us all Stand aside She has arrived Trumpets full of gale Eyes grow bright Enrapturing sight Amidst a shadow, long and pale Shine the light of truth On her darkest of dreams On her bent realities And they will shatter She weighs us down In a sorrowful fog Her eyes… her dark eyes Shine Shine the light The light of truth On her darkest of dreams On her bent realities And they will shatter A delicate balance A fragile life Tip the scales Dominance, power Delusional, dream swept tempest Shine the light of truth Upon a shadow long and pale O greatest destroyer, I bow to thee never

Tearful moments Brought on by grief My descending mind drowns I carry with me Gilded sorrow On my deepest elation I still see you Right in front of me My love My everything We lied in embrace Eyes passed through mine You faded before me And all I could do was watch Slow is the air Stagnant... it strangles me My spirit wrung to die Slow is the air It strangles me The truest of lamentations Exhausted winter I must remember There is life after love, but if I dare to live I will forget why
6.
Fear holds the hand of a loving caress Lips in contempt shout in silence Unearthed The worm welters Unearthed A morsel for the dove The wheel counters round Nightfall, midnight, dawn Make a wish upon a belief Demands on this love you feel (This love you feel) You fail to see around this bend What dangers lie ahead? With all that’s unsaid Do you dare to pray? Isn’t it beautiful? This place you’ve never seen Was it easy to drop from the clouds... The perilous descent? Was it simple to take the dive... When realities bent? I’m sorry, my dear The rot has traveled too deep Farewell... Nightfall, midnight, dawn Nightfall… nightfall Lost, Sleepless one? Wound thorns grow dull And the morning forever dim Unfamiliar lands, Deepest one? I’m afraid you’ve outstayed your welcome

Monument 08:10
I asked for its name And it said unto me, “You know my name, You've always known.” Then any sense of my power Dissolved into its awful form It travels in reflections A vision of despair, Measureless sorrow I stood in its shadow As the unsound ate reason Terror subdued me, and it wallowed A simple look Crippled me with grief And I knew This was the monument That causes our pain The pain of living The monument That causes our pain Skies so dark And the rain It never ends Pooling sadness Faded daylight in Payne’s grey This vision of misery grew The way it split the sky Its peak pierced my chest My breath tapered off Like the unsympathetic apex The crushing presence of its aura Draws color from the world around Desires ebb, I fall, I cannot move A simple look Crippled me with grief And I knew This was the monument That causes our pain The pain of living The monument That causes our pain

Unspoken words Burn like winter fires Deep in my Hollow chest A dark concealment clings To my stone dead walls of shame It coils my body Stripping my spirit away Everlasting pain The burden is too much to bear The bellowing Earth Roars around me Drown my senses In the stream that carries me Waters, black as pitch: How can one dread your gleam? Yet yearn to be cradled In your eternal arms He who dwells Betwixt the sills The cold wind blows It calls and crows Of oil adorned And torch upturned The vast old void Approaches thee May comfort guide The departing This grueling trial never ends I pound my ravaged head Against a column of failure Wreathed in ivy I bind my suffering What remains of my will Smolders before Elysian dawn The tethers give way I commence celebration Take me now He who dwells Betwixt the sills The cold wind blows It calls and crows Of oil adorned And torch upturned The vast old void Approaches thee May comfort guide The departing The cold wind beats upon my ears and subdues my face Our distance pushes on The upturned torch signals my life to death I drink from the humble cup To finally escape the Liminals of profound loss
