Cages

Chalk white knuckles, failing vitals
Passing notes over the ashes
Pin prick triggers can't keep aflame
Passing notes to the devil
Fear masked in barbell denials
Taping our hands to reduce the strain
Passing notes over ashes
Bury memory in the bright lights
Tape my eyes to mask the shame
Chalk witness falling idols
Walking past in velvet indifference
Tape my mouth to take the blame
Passing notes to the devil
Fear masked in barbell denials
Taping our hands to reduce the strain
Passing notes over ashes
Bury memory in the bright lights
Tape my eyes to mask the shame

Grave Peddlers
04:19

You don't have to ask me to give you direction
Your eyes so bright and brittle
Arteries the balustrade we clutch and cling to
To keep alive
These faces don't lie awake at night
We fit through the unguarded spaces
Through cracks in the cages we find light
I'll save what I can
You don't have to tell me the holes you're done filling
Captive to a crowded hall
Dreamed this was a special case
The arguments keep mounting

Good Night

Good Night Sweetheart, Good Night
Rest your weary bones
What I could have been
What I should have been
Good Night Sweetheart, Good Night

Debris
02:42
|
|||
I've been sleeping
Under my belly,
Under the table,
For no one to see
Under the covers
Through a mirror blade
It cut open the debris.

Pinched
03:28
|
|||
I saw the crime
Ballots burned to ash
No evidence.
I drank poison
And saw the ocean.
I pinched myself
My eyes are clear.
Soft days to numb the zeal
And to lose control.
The pigs are on the move,
To eat away.
Gunfire is drawing near.
When I smell death,
I fall to my knees.
Dance, the clouds have peaked
The Sword from Your mouth
You've finally appeared, my Dear.

Memoriam
01:48
|
|||
We were all seated in a room
The candle lit and flowers from your mom
When I think of past memories
I think of the stains on your veins
When you drank morphine drip
It reminds me of the other hospital trips
When babies were born
And people said goodbye
When will it be when the flowers are for me
But not from my mom
And I lay frozen

Egg Shells
02:57
|
|||
In the middle of the night
When it's quiet
The sound of pulses through neighboring walls
In between us lies what walls can't make
When I looked at you, I was shook up
I saw the end of my life with you
If all the people saw
Could they hold it in front of me
Tell me that the words will come out
Tell me that I'll say what I feel
Tell me that I'll even have a notion of need
Tell me that you'll hold me
If I had something to say
I'd let you know
I spit eggshells for you to walk on

Trophy
04:27
|
|||
Something under my belt
Something on top of my shelf
Something to show you
Say it loud
Say it clear
From your mouth
To my ear
All I've gain and all I've lost
All I have, for the cause
|

Wanted
01:47
|
|||
All the things I wanted
All the things I needed
All the days I lost it
All the times you tried to
All the times I'd fight you
