1. Prelude Abstract
2. Cut Off Your Wings
Internal contradictions break the skin
Forsaken noises surrounding temperament
Feel the void liquefying ceased existence prying
Intellect habitual neglect
Triggered senses false perceptions censored
Spherical impressions tactics threatening all of this
Cut off your wings cut off your wings
So I stare at the world through callow eyes
With the lights off, I think of night
And the days forever looked back on now recite the cause of this fall
Conveniently once again you’ve reached a crossroads
Surely you’ll pick the path that always seems to be most traveled
So grab a makeshift personality and get lost in the shuffle
Contaminating devastating reality
Loss of self worth appears entity
Reflections mean nothing but what you want to see
One day you’ll open up like an autopsy
Cut off your wings
3. Wrist Art Calamity
Eyes wont close
Despite the dose so close
But no one knows why the next day seems so far away
The monotony won’t break
Wrist art calamity
I cant breath underwater - I can’t be pacified
I can’t rise from these ashes - I have become one with night
I’m nightened
The thoughts that crawl to end it all
Walls fall just like a row of paper dolls
The skin will grow over the wound
But not if this will continue
I want to draw a picture - But draw it with a twist
Draw it with a razor blade - Draw it on my wrist
I want to draw - A picture - Draw it with - A violent twist
Draw it with - A razor blade - Define art - In my own way
I want to draw a picture I want to draw a picture I want to draw a picture I want to draw
Wrist art calamity –fall
4. Uprooted
Every time my eyes open I stare at you
You are always there for me
Never stop trying to hold the sky
No matter what they day might bring
And now I watch you die all over again - My shades gone it has gone away
I just wish I could do something As I stand here lonely wishing you strength
Nature comes by forcefully uprooting
I have watched you grow but pointlessly
The end result is always the same
Your demise is my disappointment
Means I leave empty handed again
And now there’s nothing I can do
No matter what you will uproot
Every time the stars came up, I stared at you
You were the only thing that was dependable
I watched you grow but so pointlessly
The end result is always the same
Uprooted
Why did you fade away
5. Not Forgotten
1000 thoughts now cross through my mind
It clears the webs left in hindsight
An endless right with no resolve
It haunts the burns and chills the calm
Not forgotten not again
Curiosity forever kills
And bid the time and eat these pills
And make the sleep forever hold me
Iit spills the fears of this travesty
You try so hard to break me down
I cannot breathe, I can’t find ground
You try so hard to break me down
I cannot breathe, I can’t find ground
I watch all the colors wash away
The blues and reds all look the same
The worst place to start to learn
I dilute all your words
I quiver while I wait to hear you speak
Next thing you say can change everything
A smile torn from the left behind
It’s a shame there’s no rewind
If I am hated at least I am
Not Forgotten
6. Infect the Ill
