THE ABSENCE LYRICS
"The Absence" (2004 EP)
1. I, Deceiver
2. My Ruin
3. Seven Demons
1. I, Deceiver
Where
seduction sleeps
to the smell of your lifelessness
Wrapped in plastic
Your fiction
bitter sweet....loss of sleep
where this day comes, reckoning
Unforgiving
Where these two now go missing
and throw me to greatness
Ghost signals and the taste of the ice
that froze all of their hearts
with the sadness
and betrayal
where these mourning end as empty handed as I
Its only sinking deeper
The shame now, no healing
Its only sinking deeper
This hollow feeling
So fear
I swear that I will walk on water
If you will forgive me
this one last time
So fear
I swear that I will walk on water
If You will just forgive Me
Bitter sweet
Loss of sleep
Where this day comes reckoning
Unforgiving the departure
Watching your blessing to accept
While Im watching you sink below
To the flutter of this lonesome angel
suspended in the silhouette
This faith, my slowest fever
and this hope my great deceiver
Its only sinking deeper
So fear
I swear that I will walk on water
If you will forgive me
this one last time
So fear
I swear that I will walk on water
If you will forgive me
this one last time
I will lay here
in your devastation
for just one more night...
You led us on
You killed your own
Where
seduction sleeps
to the smell of your lifelessness
to wrap in plastic
Your fiction
bitter sweet...loss of sleep
where this day comes, reckoning
Unforgiving
I will lay in your devastation
for just one more night
2. My Ruin
Their flies,
circle halos over this emptiness
where the breathing gets older
and My lips grow colder
when these rains get thinner through the burden
And this buried dream
We must reap what these eyes now see
This is where My heart now dissipates
You disintegrate
I will fill the heavens no more with this never ending wake
while I promise death
to a bled hearts beating
open arm seething
This monument to the dimming heights
where the tears and blood are always awry
And for the millions of staggering swine
who teeter aimless to the open sky
trudging slowly
over the dead
where the days now end
Silent and gray
in a grave to lay
crumbling hope
and My end of days
Far too tired to burn this bright
when mountains will topple and send Your fears alight
The wonder in this stay
and hells price to pay
My ruin this infatuation
In the endless, I'm so far away
My ruin this infatuation
In the endless, I'm so far away
SOLO Patrick
My ruin this infatuation
In the endless, I'm so far away
SOLO Peter
Their flies,
circle halos over this emptiness
where the breathing gets older
and My lips grow colder
when these rains get thinner through the burden
3. Seven Demons
Lead Joseph
The wreckage to plagues we sing of
on the breath of harmony
submersed, forgotten, and singing in suffering
while I stand behind these shimmering tired eyes
watching your faithless stride
deep into hell
Taste...Taste the blood of the angels heart
We have only just begun to fall
In the end when we fall
Consumed by all that we deny
They have gone to the razors thrusting up
and thinking of this failure alight
stillborn, slit in this nevermore
the flight deeper on this pale horse
They bury their hearts in the opens of remission
while I bury my heart deep in this morning star
Taste...Taste the blood of the angels heart
We have only just begun to fall
In the end when we fall
Consumed by all that we deny
