Liar, Liar 03:34
The words drip from your teeth like blood The only thing I knew before the flood Came and tore the world apart A hollow needle filled with poison Abcessed lungs that scream unceasing Woes to all that raise their voice But you stand Raining despair But you stand And tremble In the peculiar way the dead forget How to breathe without collapsing The restless way you leak regrets And hide within your casket Liar, liar You call to me Wanting nothing more than the days betrayed Liar, liar Untamed, unnamed A statue on the floor holds the life you freely gave The open door beyond your eyes As smoke billows in frantic disguise You watch The beaten soul you gave to me Pondering so gracelessly The cost The peculiar way the dead regret All that came and all that went The restless way you play with fire And weep when it all burns down Liar, liar You're dead to me As beating heart returns at last And you can only fade away

Dreaming 03:42
I keep dreaming of you Like there's anything left to dream about And the spark between Has sputtered out Leaving the cold, leaving the doubt You haunt me still With vacant smile As if you knew all the while I was only in denial Maybe one day it will all make sense The colours all Faded out Leaking remnants of a heart So I've tried to cover the cracks And ignore the past I keep thinking of you Wondering where you are now About the person you've become And still it hurts so disproportionately To the time spent in the sun Maybe one day it will all make sense The colours all Faded out Leaking remnants of a heart So I've tried to cover the cracks And ignore the past The colours all Faded out As we grow further apart So I've paled and railed against The uncaring memories

Lucid 04:13
Lucid The water in your eyes Reminds you of the dreams you loathe Reflected in the cold In the weight upon your soul Breathe Helpless It spreads Numb and isolated Radiating through your bones Never felt so alone Like one already gone Once again unknown But here you are Weeping tears Made of fears That never fall and shatter Never really mattered An afterthought of what's to come Like one day you would see the sun The lost hands attain their Graceless dancing Through the storm Reaching out For the spark For the song The hymn to which the world ignores As the sky weeps its fears And you dance into the ether The lost hands attain their gracelessness Wringing hope from patterns in the sand You seek the answers in your hands And rail against time's demands Like the answers are trapped under your skin

Hands tied Behind your backs Waiting for another to crack Speak out against the crowd While the walls come tumbling down Wake up and see Open eyes in fevered dream The only hands The ties that bind Heads buried in sand are fried The sky will not save you from yourself Hands tied Lacking stress Pleading mere emptiness The will to fight, so in plight Leaving the hourglass The sky will not save you from yourself Houses falling Draped in green Winds stirring the unclean Houses falling Draped in white Surrender to uncaring plight Look at your hands Shaking in fear The world is ending and there's no-one to hear The sky will not save you from yourself Look at your hands Lined with wisdom Tracing the trails Of constellations The sky will not save you from yourself The sky will not save you from yourself
