The Dead And The Dying
Gather ye round, fellow children of sadness
For madness and misery beckon once more
Imploring us all just to fall for a moment
Back into the days and the ways of before
If only to suffer aloud for a moment
Outside of the hell of concealing inside
The thoughts and emotions, such poisonous potions,
That unwanted tragedies force us to...

Twisted Reflection
There in the mirror, the face of normality
Looking through me, breaking me down
Is this the nightmare, or is it reality
Morbid intrusion, it muffles the sound
Is this me crying, is this me dying,
Is this me trying to be less like you
Am I now bleeding, am I now feeding,
Am I now failing like you want me to
There...

Lost
The loneliness I feel tonight inside this crowded room
Forever leaves me with no words to say.
Lying there in silence, you've left me far too soon.
You promised me you'd never go away.
But sometimes words are spoken, and promises are broken,
Though you didn't really have a choice.
So much we haven't gone through, and so much I haven't told you.

Tower Of Humanity
A hundred wasted lifetimes
A thousand broken dreams
Countless shouts of triumph
Rage apart at ill-stitched seams
Hands which reach for glory
Fall to dust an inch away
Towers of humanity
Crumble as they sway
Tapestries of vanities
And falsely stated niceties
Only set the mind at ease
While silently they breed disease
And thus will further weaken
Your vaguely-wrought construction
Until...

Sin And Tonic
Get right to the point, as you point your trembling finger
Pour it out upon me, and let the feeling linger
Let me know that everything I've ever done is wrong
Let me know you knew that I would fail you all along
And as the words fall lifeless, don't forget you tell yourself
That everything you say is justified within yourself...

The Door That Is Not A Door
A window that is no window at all
Shows a vague view of my soul.
Coated with grime of misfortune and time,
It does not dilute what is shown.
Such evils I've done, and deeds I recall
All take a murderous toll.
The after effects of my ways and my crimes
Leave alien landscapes, unknown.
There is a...

Thiever of Souls
Slow creeping castles in mind intertwine
With memories bled deeply with pain
Chaotic structures, foundations of fear
And lives of a dark crimson stain
Slivered intentions thrust deeply within
Black fingers which clutch death like gold
Breeding disfigured delusions of life
In a worm-ridden heart love can't hold
Distorted figures of flesh and of shadow
Vehemently spawning delusion
Embedded far within failure-worn...

Slipping Away
All the things that I've never had
Are all of the things that have had at me
My wishes of the things I love
Become phantasmic memory
As this new feeling burns inside
Close akin to travesty
My mind returns to seize the day
When heaven came to bury me
I watch tomorrow's yesterday
Slipping slyly through the glass
Contaminating leagues of failures...
