My Notre Dame 04:03
lyrics
buy track
Turning my back Fading to black Burning bridges now and then Walled myself within As I used to with my wishes An invisible web I’m caught in My convent I pretend I choose my imaginary friends Burning bridges I got my eerie peace again The sound of the house settling It’s more than enough man I’m more than enough man More than enough company More than enough company Empty matching empty Well as the bell rings My heart in the chasm My Notre Dame The last hymn My phone is dead And I haunt the windows from my head It’s just me and myself and I In the tower So many lives and worlds between What I’m supposed to be

Daimons & Angels Alike 02:00

What has bitten me The days a blur, like the years were My face a blot in every photograph ruined by the tears The pages flash flooding with bleeding lines Warding out my fanciful ways Self-polluting, an act god Demons and angels alike The cold grows within me Embraced never fully Made into something unknown to me Baby come and take life through me Disoriented, I work in my sleep Baby come and take life through me Even it kills me, bring the will to me Your return completes me As the swell of a symphony beaming Closest to the light I’ll be Draw the poison out the bite The breeze I am What has bitten me Find me through the noise I need to know your voice I need to know you take my breath with yours The pages flash flooding with bleeding lines Warding out my fanciful ways Self-polluting, an act of god Demons and angels alike The cold grows within me Embraced never fully Made into something unknown to me Baby come and take life through me Disoriented, I work in my sleep Baby come and take life through me Even it kills me

Battles 03:08
lyrics

Pick your battles Just end yourself first, by saving yourself for last I feel the worst is yet to come I could choke on my tongue A plateau of mood Pick your battles Just end yourself first They like to keep you small Wound you to heal you, so you’re not too strong Right under your nose I could list the wrongs twice Before the rights To lift this weight off my mind Free my body it’s a matter of time I used to cry myself to sleep It still hurts too much to speak Battered by the words interred in me And all that I consume returned to pick at me What I turn to soothe has introduced another agony Oh, the fault in all I see, I’m the one looking As a scapegoat For the stars to shine I need night to arrive Concealing those who abide Pick your battles, don’t fall in line Just end yourself first, by saving yourself for last I feel the worst, I feel the worst They like to keep you small Wound you to heal you, so you’re not too strong Right under your nose I could list the wrongs twice Before the rights To lift this weight off my mind Free my body it’s a matter of time Still awake so long after I close my eyes Contemplating how empty my hands are How little I know, as a scapegoat

Wolves Cradle 03:18
lyrics
buy track
They ask and then they hush Too sensitive once, too tough When it counts Open up, open up Be soft enough, just enough Trying to find a safe place Let me escape these imitation Goldie Locks Oh, tender is the knife I found in my side Oh, sweet as the tears that choke me quiet To be accommodating I die quietly with you in mind Crying does no good here How strange is my humanity? These are my woods This is my night, wear red The wolves cradle me in their lullabies As creatures shift through my dreams Remind me not to speak too much They ask and then they hush Too sensitive once, too tough When it counts Open up, open up Be soft enough, just enough Trying to find a safe place Let me escape these imitation Goldie Locks My blood paves a runway Oh, tender is the knife I found in my side Nestled between my ribs Binding my lungs Oh, sweet as the tears that choke me quiet To be accommodating I die quietly with you mind Avoidant attachment, crying does no good here How strange is my humanity Your touch feels like contamination to me These are my woods This my night, I wear red The wolves cradle me in their lullabies As creatures shift through my dreams Remind me not to speak too much They ask and then they hush Too sensitive once, too tough When it counts Open up, open up Be soft enough, just enough

Storm Witching 03:27
lyrics
buy track
Locked in another’s paradise As you walk on the backs of those who bow Using friends to climb challenging the sun This storm is witching Teach me how to find my one heaven through the many hells The one Daisy in amongst the Asters It’s a race to be found out There aren’t enough hands to cover my senses Mood shifting like a switch flipped The storm is rising Sensing thunder and the fire of lighting Gripping the edge But I’ve been falling in my own way This fame you possess is next to royalty A slim chance in the lightning's broken fingers A chant along with the rains race The quake of trees leaves, snapping as branches break The momentary terror before it’s over Hm, a silent prayer The key to transcendence passing over Teach me looking into the eye of the storm

Saint, Lady, Devil 04:05

Recitals of conversations Lost in my mind’s interpretation Masking they called me too faced before Little do they know my face oh it changes with the moons phases It creeps with the shadows cast in the setting sun I’m home on the dark side of the moon My goodness doesn’t equal greatness These tears have scarred my eyes to match my broken mind But behind glass, a saint, a lady, and a devil Chaos’s daughter Enslaved to social protocol Masking hysterics, statistics, and profanity It’s rare to be known Little do they know my face oh it changes with the moons phases It creeps with the shadows cast in the setting sun I’m home on the dark side of the moon With ink-black space starring back I feel fake in the world waiting to be found out For the faces to crack and oxygen let out Recitals of conversations Lost in my mind’s interpretation My goodness doesn’t equal greatness These tears have scarred my eyes to match my broken mind But behind glass, a saint, a lady, and a devil Chaos’s daughter Enslaved to social protocol Masking hysterics, statistics, and profanity It’s rare to be known
