steam rises, trading blood for a higher place fill your lungs with sin boys, we'll decide our fate. sift through borrowed ashes make sense of it sift through borrowed ashes make sense of it all build for something more than this build for something more than this wasteland with unopened eyes on the forgotten we'll come through the front door a pilfered kingdom distrupted ascention breeds our dissension hollowed lines are crossed for but the glory of a new breed, the new king. fill your lungs with sin boys, we'll decide our fate. I am awakened.

no one makes it out alive walking among ghosts they look right past me living in god's blind spot decieve this artificial existence slip the pills under your tongue from the tank you seem like just another specimen breathe deep. fall asleep. branded a loose end the light comes for me no sleep. no retreat. a life lays on the floor bleeding out ive sacrificed everything for this thats not a still life down there but it may as well be angels always regrow their wings there's no quality of life Is this hell? Is this purgatory? Remind me. I forgot to breathe. Bury me. They forgot to bury me. The solution came to me. It must be a dream A vicious dream. There's no one to answer for this. Awaken me on the other side. No one makes it out alive. slip the pills under your tongue from the tank you seem like just another specimen breathe deep. fall asleep. Is this hell? Is this purgatory? Remind me. I forgot to breathe.

SHE CRAWLS OVER MY SKIN GAZE SECURES ME REASSURING THIS IS SOMETHING I'VE BEEN MISSING IS THIS LIFE BEGGING AT THE DOOR? AND THOUGH I THOUGHT THE SUN HAD SET ON THIS ISLAND FOR THE LAST TIME LIGHT FOUND A WAY. HELP ME BELIEVE THAT THESE THOUGHTS WON'T BURY ME x2 THIS HOPE CHOKES THE LIFE FROM ME FUNNY IT'S ONLY AT THE CUSP OF DEATH THAT ONLY NOW WE REALIZE JUST HOW MUCH WE ARE ALIVE THE BURDEN OF YOUR EYES MEETING MINE RESTS ON MY HEART LIKE A HOT COAL OH THE HERESY IN THIS SWEET TASTE FREEDOM HAS ITS PRICE AND LOVE IS PAID IN TWO'S HOLD YOUR MARTYRS TO THEIR THROAT AND BEG FOR SWEET DELIVERANCE PROMISES KISS THE SKY GOODBYE, DANCING IN THEIR SMOKE SURROUNDED BY THE LIES I'VE TOLD MYSELF I KNOW I'VE MADE IT HOME EVEN BETRAYED I TEAR IN TWO, NOT FOR THE FLESH, BUT FOR THE FLAMES, FOR BUT A FLEETING MOMENT IF I EVER HAD A SOUL I'D TRADE IT ALL AWAY FOR ONE MORE DAY JUST ONE MOMENT FOR ONE MORE DAY ERASED HER DISCARDED WE'RE ALL GOING TO PAY DISTRACT ME FROM THE SILENCE OF THE FALLEN SIREN BATHE ME IN THE FIRE, DRAG WHAT'S LEFT OF ME DOWN THE ROAD DON'T GO DON'T LEAVE SURRENDER YOUR BODY, BUT NEVER YOUR MIND DON'T GO DON'T LEAVE SURRENDER YOUR BODY

This is not the end. Wake up. Are we heaven sent? Or are these scars washed away when we die? So who will atone? Who will admit it's all been for nothing? And will that same man rise upon the bones of the sacrificed, and find a path home? I've worlds like these crash and burn. And no ones made it out alive Omnipotence be damned. Whether you worship your pockets or the sky, we forget to cherish the times. The face of emerald dead planet versus the rotting face of an existence that flourshes is still the greatest question. We're still doomed We're still missing the picture Our dirt castle keeps us warm Our back alley love keeps us sane we were never meant for mainstream fame Just make it to tomorrow And only then can we ask for more. We're still doomed. We're still missing the picture. This is not the end.
