1. A Homicide Divine
Disgust drives deep into my flesh. And the lighest of day lifts me up into your only escape, your longing to live. Surpassing our standards and once again falling deep into your final. Branded the weak, I feel it burn. I see the fire beneath your eyes. Your hate for... leaves these scars bleeding. Imprisoned in your narcissism, I am surrounded words that mutilate my mind. Beneath your skin, the lies clot within, turning my insides cold. Envision your blood streaked across the tiles, drying like paint around my hands. Battered, I lie on the floor as a child. Coming closer to death, I wonder what makes me chant. Conquered, you've left my aspirations. I fall with your help. We abolish creation. Your hatred is for yourself. Your rain lashes hard upon my shoulders. I fall to my knees wishing that you could see yourself.
2. Beneath The Barren Fields
3. The Gates Of Redemption
Silence troubles my thoughts for these past few days. I've done nothing but sulk in this hypocrisy. Never have I seen such words made to this heart. I watch myself bleed from the scar you have incised. Flee to your sinful gates of forgiveness, as you cover this face of ignorance with a veil of innocence. Where am I left this past year of give take give, and what are you hiding from? These two eyes which gave you sight? At night I would dream of your gut-writhing touch. Frightened, I awake choking on my tongue, feeling my body soaking in sweat, wishing it was yours. It was yours beading through your skin, and steeping deep into my bed. Darkness controls my thoughts, as these pas few nights I've conjured excuses to live. Dealing with my mistakes, and the revelation that I don't need your faith, I want to watch you bleed... and regret every last word you've said.
4. A Revelation For The Forsaken
Take this laugh as my lungs collapse. i choke on the smoke in this hell of my own. I lie on the floor, forsaken and alone. Blood smears across my face as this smile is stripped away. My hopes, destroyed with my dreams of one day walking a stride so tall. In a room of emptiness, naked and beaten I lie. Memories crushing a mind of regret, and here I anguish. Pacing forth on splinters and fragments of broken glass, I leave this sticky trail behind that will never be followed. And this solitude has come for where violence and poetry are no longer medicinal to my pain. Serenity is lost. Everything was lost the day you said goodbye, the day your went away. Where every drop of misery that falls from our mournful above pushes me into shallow puddles of somber. You've taken the pure from me, and never will I love like the way to lotus bloom. My knuckles so red and worn from scraping the concrete. And how in my case, it's never good in the end.
5. Drawn From Autumn
Tasting the traces of midnight mist, the cold tremble I feel from your voice of deceit. Kindle this week of devotion and watch the heart explode. Force-fed the everlasting burn of love when all that is left are fragments of your lacerated letters and charred photographs. Now, every memory of embrace is in his skin. Blistering in my head I see you running into his arms. Standing in shadows of ruin. Auburn falls from the branches that bear my cloak, and the wrath of deception continues to kill like the fall. The dried roses continue to die, but warmth I once felt inside claws itself out. The familiar twinge is no longer killing my sleep. Still I can see your face in these empty frames by my bed, and the scent of your naked body remains in these unwashed sheets: It's in his skin... would he kill to love you because I would.
