01. The Future As History: I Love You Dead

Music & lyrics by Night Verses
Yeah, I'm drowning in your poison
Venomous love, teeth sharp as razors, I cry
We're so honest when we're choking
When all the oxygen has burned up all of our minds

Here's where it starts
Where it starts out of my skin
I feel the warmth pour out from my crying eyes
Yeah, I love you dead

(I wanna shake the earth)

Come spit up your devotion
Upon a canvas of infinite corpses divine, oh
We're so honest when we're choking
When all the oxygen has poured out of all our minds

Here's where it starts
Where it starts out of my skin
I feel the warmth pour out from my fucking eyes
Yeah, I never wanted anything
Yeah, I never wanted anything
But I know that I love you dead
Yeah I love you dead

Ahh!
Dead!
Yeah, I love you dead
Oh!
No, I never wanted anything
But I know that I love you dead
Ah ha ha ha!
Yeah, I never wanted anything
No, I never wanted anything

02. Connecting Hexes

Music & lyrics by Night Verses
I was caught underneath the gravity of the curse
In empathy, pathetic in the night stalking
Yeah, I took on another life
And, no I never wanted to steady my hate upon the earth
Where it hurt
That's when the universe lit like a match
And I don't know why

I hear my beating heart
Listen
I hear the sound of revolution
Listen
A lightning bolt has struck my soul unscathed
Into the air (x3)

Follow me we'll split in two
Follow me we'll split in two
The galaxy we'll travel

I held onto the bottom and whispered in the dirt
A parasitic creature in the mind waiting
Yeah, I was feeding on the lies
And when I never thought it would gnaw at traumatic incidents
I'm innocent and that's when my body exploded a star and shot into the sky

I feel my beating heart
Listen
I hear the sound of revolution
Listen
A lightning bolt has struck my soul unscathed
Into the air

Follow me we'll split in two
Follow me we'll split in two
The galaxy we'll travel

I was caught underneath the gravity of the curse
In empathy, pathetic in the night stalking
Yeah, I took on another life
I never wanted to steady my hate upon the earth
Where it hurt
That's when the universe lit like a match
And I don't know why

Follow me we'll split in two
Follow me we'll split in two
The galaxy we'll travel

03. Drift

Music & lyrics by Night Verses
Lie alone and listen to your thoughts
Calm is empty, desolate and blue
There's a war upon the burning heart
Ease your mind before the truth

Let's drift
Drift in
Let's drift, yeah
Drift in
Oh, oh

Underneath the glowing moon
Blood is dripping, burning red
Where there's a stillness in the mind
Fall asleep and count your dead

Drift
Drift in
Let's drift
Drift in

Yeah, I don't wanna live with knowing
We were told to stay the same
Yeah, I don't wanna live with knowing
We were told to stay!
(Stay!)

Let's drift
Drift in, yeah
Let's drift
Drift in

Drift
Wide awake you save your speech (Drift in)
Yeah, I can sense a common thread (Let's drift)
There's a war beyond the reach (Drift in)
Fall asleep and count your dead

Drift
Drift in
Let's drift
Drift in
Drift (Fall asleep and count your dead)
(Drift in) Fall asleep and count your dead
(Let's drift) Fall asleep and count your dead
(Drift in) Fall asleep and count your dead

04. A Dialogue In Cataplexy

Music & lyrics by Night Verses
Are we numb?
Pure intensity shaped like a gun
Fired at the world through a volatile tongue
Now, I'm chained to distress with a hole in my head
Bleeding out all the wrongs

Sell the truth
Cut your mouth again
Our world's in question
When you battle my nerves at the center
There's no more questioning

We all hide under lines to strengthen our spine
There's no place in the sun
We're losing our minds

Are we content?
Overbearing when nothing makes sense
I've got no one but myself to judge
Now, I'm chained to distress with a hole in my head
Bleeding out all the wrongs

Sell the truth
Cut your mouth again
Our world's in question
When you battle my nerves at the center
There's no more questioning

We all hide under lines to strengthen our spine
There's no place in the sun
We're losing our minds

Our urgencies collide and a warning sign hangs on
They breathe amongst the weak
Enough to disarm and cause lovers to fear and fall

Our urgencies collide and a warning sign hangs on
They breathe amongst the weak
Enough to disarm and cause lovers to fear and...
Fall (x4)

We all hide under lines to strengthen our spine
There's no place in the sun

Open up your arms, open up your heart
Open up your arms, open up your heart
Oh! I love you enough to disarm

05. Vantablack

Music & lyrics by Night Verses
Floating past the planet where I've grown
Stirring all the emptiness I know
Vanishing light in a cosmic hold
Everything's so perfect all alone

I, I was, I was so lost but now
My emotions swim
Hollow never felt so proud
I was, I was so lost but
Now

Voyager reflecting in the stars
Shadowing imaginary means
All this space is worth it when you're cold
Everything's so perfect all alone

I, I was, I was so lost but now
My emotions swim
Hollow never felt so proud
I was, I was so lost but now
Hollow never felt so proud
My emotions swim
Hollow never felt so proud

06. Faceless Youth

Music & lyrics by Night Verses
Your body's irrelevant now
Time's transparent and flowing through
All the life your breathing
Upon the cavity of space and dust
Leave earth and rise up
Call the energies where the planets bend
Accelerate your skin, transform your cell

We'll rip the soul out of our being (being)
Erase the touch and divide
(The cavity of space and dust, space and dust)
There's so much more than what we're knowing (knowing)
We are the infinite and true
We are the dawn of faceless youth

Your mind's an element now
Transcend your physical form
Nothing and everything to let go of
A swarm of vast complexity
Abandon all safety
Channel all the sun's glare
Crash your voice into despair

We'll rip the soul out of our being
(Your body's irrelevant now)
Erase the touch and divide
(The cavity of space and dust, space and dust)
There's so much more than what we're knowing
(Your mind's an element now)
We are the infinite and true
We are the dawn of faceless youth

A swarm of vast complexity
A swarm of vast complexity

We'll rip the soul out of our being
(Your body's irrelevant now)
Erase the touch and divide
(The cavity of space and dust, space and dust)
There's so much more than what we're knowing
(Your mind's an element now)
We are the infinite and true
We are the dawn of faceless youth

We are the infinite and true
We're the dawn?

07. Panic And Pull Your Heart Out

Music & lyrics by Night Verses
Broken ghosts inside our minds
Digging up complacent ends
Penetrate the flesh that tastes of mulch
In the cemetery where no one knows

Grab at the sky
Stab at the walls
Escape from the Vault
Panic and pull your heart out

Burning Bones
We bathe in fire
Underneath the city streets
Bloody headstones laced with salt and skulls
In the cemetery where no one goes

Grab at the sky
Stab at the walls
Escape from the Vault
Panic and pull your heart out

Grab at the sky (Grab at the sky)
Stab at the walls (Stab at the walls)
Escape from the vault (Escape from the vault)
Panic and pull your heart out
Grab at the sky (Grab at the sky)
Stab at the walls (Stab the walls)
Escape from the vault (Escape from the vault)
Panic and pull
Panic and pull your heart out!

08. Growing Out Of Orbit

Music & lyrics by Night Verses
We caught fire in cities made of snow
Cut so deep by everyone we loathed
Two were one before division bells
Separation peeling back our shells
We're the same

When you're crumbling by the wayside
When you're lost and torn apart
You can call on me
I'll pull you, I'll pull you
There's no end to my affection
When you're life comes crashing down
You can call on me
I'll pull you, I'll pull you out

Gone the days of innocence and youth
Complexes evade us from the truth
Opposite sides from a firing line
Synergetic, holding onto you
We're the same

When you're crumbling by the wayside
When you're lost and torn apart
You can call on me
I'll pull you, I'll pull you
There's no end to my affection
When you're life comes crashing down
You can call on me
I'll pull you, I'll pull you out

Oh, We're the same

When you're crumbling by the wayside
When you're lost and torn apart
You can call on me
I'll pull you
There's no end to my affection
When you're life comes crashing down
You can call on me
I'll pull you (I'll pull you)
Yeah, I'll pull you out

09. Blue Shades Of The Sun

Music & lyrics by Night Verses
I recall you crying out in distress
Where the space between
Was broken down
Permanent

Speed of light beyond the bounds
Spin a web that's so surreal
If the world we adore is ending
We'll erase with no appeal

I'm not trying to switch you off my mind
I may be wrong, I may be wrong
But I can't stand straight
I can't sit still
I'm not trying to switch you
I just hate this place
Yeah, I hate this place
And I know I always will
Oh! I know I always will

Speed of light beyond the bounds
Spin a web that's so surreal
If the world we adore is ending
We'll erase with no appeal

I'm not trying to switch you off my mind
Oh! I can't stand straight, I can't sit still
Yeah, I hate this place
And I know I always will

10. Strange Graves

Music & lyrics by Night Verses
There's a mirror filled with sand
Broken glass has gone and swallowed the shore
Through the cracks, I can finally sense sunlight
Time after time I felt the sorrows deafening my world
Afraid I couldn't change
Now, I want out

I'm breathing fire
I want to glisten

Who we are
We'll find out
BEWARE YOUR STRANGE GRAVE

I can feel my tired heart opening up, embracing itself
Insecurities erase from my mind
Night after night I hit the bottom
Underneath my shell afraid I couldn't break
Now, I want out

I'm breathing fire
I want to glisten

Who we are
We'll find out
BEWARE YOUR STRANGE GRAVE

11. Phoenix III: Into The Vanishing Light

Music & lyrics by Night Verses
I can feel you from the outer distance
A sudden call of synergy through us
You're my lungs
You're my breath in this cold place
I swear on everything I have I'm never gonna leave your side
You're my lungs
You're my breath in this deep space

You swallow my sorrows
Yeah, you keep me alive
A particle of burning truth
You hollow my heart out of a bottomless hell
A dagger of love cuts through
You're all I've got in the world
Don't leave

I'm worlds away on these sleepless nights
Without oven another to hold in our eyes
Like a glimmer of love under vanishing light
So, guide me guide my body back into your eyes
Don't let me burn

Fall dead in the darkness through a vacant sky
But I'll come back because you keep me alive
You're the permanent solution
A radiant burst of love through a swarm of confusion
So emotional, a sick sadistic pessimistic view over the world before your beacon had reached me
Now, I'm a phoenix in the sky and when I fall apart in the moment? don't let me burn up

I see you so close in my dreams
You're a cloud colored violet
I reach out as if you're a ghost
I can feel you with me
We're connected above and below
Into the vast unknown
All the warmth inside
You're a cloud colored violet
All the warmth inside
Don't let me wake

I'm so lost from you
I'm so sick

Let's escape our realm
Forget everybody else
(Fix my insides)

I fight to be your bones
We'll never break or bend

Shooting past the stars
Forgetting anything at all

You're living a lie
We're living a lie
