1. Apathemy - Silent Years
Picking up the pieces of silent years
Expectations of winter arise
Absent thoughts of steps and sights
Dried tears tell a story of blackened skies, of blackened visions
Open wounds cry for attention
Hands bound, eyes clenched as we try to maintain life
Stepping on the cracks of common ground
Trees burn in the memory of the fall
The silhouette of your shadow brings my death
Poison the voice that speaks your name
Fermented blood stains the tiles, and we wash our soiled hands
Aching the words buried under the soil that only cry to die
Expressions of seasons gone to waste
Tides of envy wash away craving for closure when you won't hear my words
Silent years of trying to forget your name
Silent years... and you to blame
Walking into my own demise
2. Apathemy - Ravens
Tear out my heart and feed it to the ravens
Stars that seemed so easy to hold drift further from the touch
I was there to hold your face to mine
Such limbs to prey among my dreams
Choke and claim their ground
Positioned within my deepest fears to come alive and assume my place
Your judgements come and leave their marks
Ambition is nearly a shadow of a dream
Ravens feast on eyes that once saw beauty
No touch can leave its mark on a heart that breaks
I stand motionless where it first began
A new wind blows chimes to summon an end
Flowers arise... bodies descend
Ravens seek decayed... feeding on carrion
3. Break of Dawn - The Soup & The Clouds
Scene one (I think this is where we left off),
Shot two (And I just know this will be the final one), take three.
Rewind, begin again, it's all the same: how it washed us away.
I can feel the red closing in; collapse around our heads.
We're drowning.
Please look at this and follow through.
All that I've done has always been for you
But still, I must dwell on this fear of you ending without ever knowing just how much I've loved you.
"In these hands I could trust the world."
Today I walked beneath the crying trees,
Through the grass that flowed like silk, no, twice as soft.
Under an autumn sky cool breezes kept hopes warm,
And all I could think of was you.
Scene one: where we left off.
Shot number two.
And I just know this will be the final one, take three.
Please look at this and follow through.
All that I've done has always been for you.
And all I've said, I hope you're listening, will always be for you.
