A burning crow gliding
A million drones diving down Your eyes have gone hiding in your head Of all your extinctions I'm surely the worst you found Your eyes have turned inside out and fled You summoned a cannibal You summoned an underfed animal You summoned a cannibal This sun is so incomplete always A cyanide beehive A fentanyl landslide plague Your eyes have gone hiding in your head You’re longing for earthshine But I’m in a saltmine quake My empathy chokes in clouds of dread You summoned a cannibal You summoned an underfed animal You summoned a cannibal This sun is so incomplete always This sun is so incomplete always This sun is so incomplete always You summoned a cannibal You summoned an underfed animal You summoned a cannibal This sun is so incomplete always You summoned a cannibal You summoned a cannibal You summoned a cannibal You summoned a cannibal You summoned a cannibal You summoned a cannibal 02. Break My Lying Tongue
Behind the cracks in your excitement
There is a pause or two Another week of misalignment A silhouette of you Break my lying tongue I ask of you Break my lying tongue I ask of you A tiny fleet of my obsessions I let it strike and play Why do we sail into confessions? I would have dared to stay Break my lying tongue I ask of you Break my lying tongue I ask of you Break my lying tongue Break my lying tongue Break my lying tongue Break my lying tongue 03. We Will Not Disband
Truth be told
I don't remember what went down but I'm still cold Light the fuse I won't be able to contain this canned youth We saw the lights in this broken land We saw the kites in the crystal bell We crush the night with our broken hands We will not disband Truth be told We found a trail across the roof in a blindfold Amplified We're louder than the universe on the inside We saw the lights in this broken land We saw the kites in the crystal bell Wе crush the night with our broken hands We will not disband (Through thе flood) We will not disband (Through the mud) We will not disband (Through the blood) We will not disband Through the We saw the lights in this broken land We saw the kites in the crystal bell We crush the night with our broken hands We will not disband 04. Glass Mannequin
Worthless
My inner vision is birthless Holes appear on its surface And move us further apart Restless I dream of solving the big test Finding the flaw in your protest That moves us further apart I don't want to throw this glass javelin I don't want to watch it fly I don't want to break my glass mannequin, once again Find us The final map is behind us We long for brightness that blinds us And moves us back to the start I don't want to throw this glass javelin I don't want to watch it fly I don't want to break my glass mannequin, once again I don't want to throw this glass javelin I don't want to watch it fly I don't want to break my glass mannequin, once again Once again Once again 05. Bleed Out
Hey hey
Hey hey We were born one day apart I grew teeth, you grew a heart We became a work of art, surely You connected, I withdrew You compiled the stones I threw I'm a poison pushing through, purely And all these casualties I can't explain And all these sunken ships still move inside my vein And all these bended trees that still remain With all my mental ease they dancе inside my brain What does it matter now, boy? Our minds rеfuse to meet We walk and then we bleed out How do we turn around, boy? We speak in future tense Into violence (Hey hey) We were born one day apart You got brushed and I got scarred A peculiar drawing card, surely I appalled while you amused I avenged when you refused I'm a poison pushing through, purely And all these casualties I can't explain And all these sunken ships still move inside my vein And all these vultures in the window pane With all my mental ease they dance inside my brain What does it matter now, boy? Our minds refuse to meet We walk and then we bleed out How do we turn around, boy? We speak in future tense Into violence I'm covered in blood I'm covered in blood I'm covered in blood I'm covered in blood I am covered in blood I am covered in blood I am covered in blood I am covered in blood Your satellite observes me You see the tide when I lay still We can't divide this heartbeat Your feet will slide on what I've spilled What does it matter now, boy? Our minds refuse to meet We walk and then we bleed out How do we turn around, boy? We speak in future tense Into violence We walk and then we bleed out We walk and then we bleed out 06. Paper Wolf
I cover my tracks and peel my layers
I gather my strength from thoughts and prayers I empty my house too flee from chaos I dream of a king that won't betray us, don't delay us all You better watch out, the wolf is coming, save your soul You better watch out, the wolf is coming, dig a hole My cigarette ash converts to sparkles My eyes are installed in walls of marbles They told me to break my floating castles I dream of the day your bones are fossils Are you puzzled now? You better watch out, the wolf is coming, save your soul You better watch out, the wolf is coming, dig a hole You better watch out, the wolf is coming, save your soul Give in to the crowd and turn to nothing, bells will toll tonight You better watch out I won't drown, I can't hold down my head (Formed so inconsistently, extending this misery lane) So you better watch out I will swim with phantom limbs instead (Breathing out the ever-present tragedy born on the plane) I was never in doubt You better watch out, the wolf is coming, save your soul You better watch out, the wolf is coming, dig a hole You better watch out, the wolf is coming, save your soul Give in to the crowd and turn to nothing, bells will toll tonight 07. I Don't Know How We Got Here
A boy was killed in the arcade
The ice cream spilled down on the blade A thousand lights starting to fade Down where he played A girl got lost in the old mall Her coat was found out by the wall A thousand ghosts starting to crawl Easing her fall (Ah) Hey I don't know how we got so far down here I don't know how the silence broke our ears I don't know how we got so far down here Choking slowly I don't know how we got here A birthday card flew into space The red balloons cold and disgraced A thousand words leaving this place No one's embraced Hey I don't know how we got so far down here I don't know how the silence broke our ears I don't know how we got so far down here Choking slowly I don't know how we got here I don’t know how we got so far down here Choking slowly Far down here Altered and lonely I don't know how we got here 08. Hollow Kid
Death doesn't matter
Breathe out while you shatter Gods laughing at her Clench your fears and climb the ladder Life doesn't matter Breathe in while you shatter Seeds you will gather Take this soil and sow the dagger He will be running with his eyes closed all night He will be picturing the scarecrows all night Though there isn't a shadow he hasn't tried The kid remains hollow Love doesn't matter Detach while you shatter Hounds flying at her Dress your face in stoic lacquer Dense liquid splatter Absorb darker matter Halt the attacker Once again your pieces scatter He will be running with his eyes closed all night He will be picturing the scarecrows all night Though there isn't a shadow he hasn't tried The kid remains hollow The kid remains hollow The kid remains hollow There's a voice falling out of transmission (The kid remains hollow) He will stick to his old repetition There's a boy letting go of ambition (The kid remains hollow) He will stick to his old repetition He will be running with his eyes closed all night He will be picturing the scarecrows all night Though there isn't a shadow he hasn't tried The kid remains hollow The kid remains 09. Tray
You gave up my repair months ago
Now I'm breathing your air down below There's a dog in the bay left unbound Will you greet me the day I come around? Excuse my while I strain my blinded eyes Excuse me while I drain another life My terrain is slipping away, ah And your champagne is still on a tray, ah I gave up my distress years ago You were never impressed, feeling low In the bright chandeliers bottles burst From illusions to peers and then reversed Excuse my while I strain my blinded eyes Excuse me while I drain another life My terrain is slipping away, ah And your champagne is still on a tray, ah Lost in waves and never found The covenant fails Reaching for a higher ground With seven inch nails My terrain is slipping away, ahh My dark horse refrains from the day My terrain is slipping away, ahh My dark horse refrains from the day, ahh All my rats are begging to stay, ahh And your champagne is still on a tray Still on a tray Still on a tray Still on a tray Still on a tray Still on a tray |
