Sleepwalking Into Armageddon
-------------------------------------------
this is the dawn of a new beginning
strained memories not worth reliving
a broken soul not worth reviving
I want to die alone without ceremony
this is my death song
escape into a new meaning
to keep this dead heart from ever beating
I lived that lie one time before
im not the one i was before
sometimes even dead angels sing
sometimes even the dead can dream
can you hear them can you hear them scream
"so many things undone"
we sail on the breeze of disease
if you had eyes even the dead could see
our hearts beat so swiftly
but we are not forever
I wore a suicide veil
sleepwalking into armageddon
my blind eyes were colored like the sunrise
you took my hand led me to hell saying it was heaven
there is no sunrise
only a death colored suicide
my heart is piss
I am the loveless
there is no sunrise
only a death colored suicide
my heart is piss
I am the loveless
this is the dawn of a new beginning
strained memories not worth reliving
a broken soul not worth reviving
I want to die alone without ceremony
this is my death song
escape into a new meaning
to keep this dead heart from ever beating
I lived that lie one time before
im not the one i was before

A Mouth Of Cadavers
-----------------------------
a bastard knows that hes the son of a dog
it digs his heart out by the roots
the threat of love always tastes so bland
better live amongst the wolves
than die by their fucking hands
enjoy the rain its about to storm
better to leave it behind
look a bit closer and youll see it in my eyes
everyone who smiles is dying inside
im as empty as the sky
you say I have a mouth of cadavers
and all I speak is hate
but you ask how I am,
is it the truth that you want?
I hate.
is it the fucking truth that you want?
I hate.
is it the fucking truth that you want?
I pretend I'm an illusion
kept quiet for so long that even death will pass me by
if silence is golden then I scream when I call your name
cover myself in indiscretion, I'll lay down in this shame
the songbird sings for the last time
cause love is a cowards muse
the songbird sings for the last time
There is nothing deeper than skin deep
cause this world is only deceit
There is nothing deeper than skin deep
cause this world is only deceit
There is nothing deeper than skin deep
There is nothing deeper than skin
There is nothing deeper than skin deep
I pretend I'm an illusion
I've kept quiet for so long that even death will pass me by
I pretend I'm an illusion
I've kept quiet for so long that even death will pass me by
a bastard knows that hes the son of a dog
it digs his heart out by the roots
the threat of love always tastes so bland
better live amongst the wolves
than die by their fucking hands
enjoy the rain its about to storm
better to leave it behind
look a bit closer and youll see it in my eyes
everyone who smiles is dying inside
im as empty as the sky

Ashen Fields
------------------
Let's stay for awhile in this field of flames
don't let this hell tear you away.
So many things to say but smoke engulfs the sky
my lungs are filled with the hell of you and I
every minute is eternity
and this world doesn't deserve our poetry
These words were only for you
these words were only for you
they are the hours that seem like days
but you said you had the power to shut the sky
it feels like im dying inside
it feels like im dying inside
hear my thin voice
in your empty arms
I crumble in fear
you are a distant dream.
I dig my grave in these ashen fields
you were never within reach
In my dying eyes
in your empty arms
you still my tears
Im a faithless monolith
I dig my grave in these ashen fields
you were never within reach
There is no cure in this paradise in flames
at rest in this grey graveyard
you said you had the power to shut the sky
and it feels like im already dying
hold my hand while I slip away
You were never within my reach
will you sing a funeral dirge
for the one who never made it
can I die as my dreams do
can I die as my dreams do
can I die as my dreams do
all of this must burn
you said to never dream again
I stomp the hearts beneath my feet
I hate myself for speaking your tongue
all of this must burn

Beautiful In Your Apocalypse
---------------------------------------
swim with me in these passionate waters
drown with me and die my muse
its always pretty here
we're drinking our own tears
kill me and eat my beating heart
Have you seen the end
danced our last hour
as beautiful as the apocalypse
cyranoid I'll bite my lip
you always leave me here
we're running from our fears
so alone in these thoughts
Have you seen the end
danced our last hour
this serenade is growing old and breaks my soul when I scream
so many thoughts cutting through my heart when I try to sleep
on this burning horizon lies a dream for you and I
lies buried unbroken by the rules of the sky
this serenade is growing old and breaks my soul when I scream
so many thoughts cutting through my heart when I try to sleep
you are so beautiful, you are so beautiful
you are so beautiful in your apocalypse
and with you I know I'm with an old enemy
swim with me in these passionate waters
drown with me and die my muse
its always pretty here
we're drinking our own tears
kill me and eat my beating heart
Have you seen the end
danced our last hour
as beautiful as the apocalypse
cyranoid I'll bite my lip
you always leave me here
we're running from our fears
so alone in these thoughts
Have you seen the end
danced our last hour
Breath the air it’s a stench of hate
A heart like mine is beating on the window
Life is screaming to be let in
but death is to kind for a soul like mine
I start to laugh to keep from crying
but I still see you smiling as you walk right by
Are you doing the same thing
are you doing the same thing
this serenade is growing old and breaks my soul when I scream
so many thoughts cutting through my heart when I try to sleep
you are so beautiful, you are so beautiful
you are so beautiful in your apocalypse
