Clarity 08:42
I once knelt down believing No questions asked, stability Now I can't see anything Logic has crawled its way inside me Open up Look Beyond See the truth Turn a blind eye Something you will never doubt Something I will never have Falling further into darkness I never knew Flickering candlelight Thinking maybe they're right Smothered by such confusion Wishing for some clarity Open up Look Beyond See the truth Turn a blind eye Something you will never doubt Something I will never have Falling further into darkness I never knew Slowly aging, rearranging, never changing, morbid views Feeling something, then it's nothing, someone show me, a real truth Woke up this morning There on the screen Bullets flying Hell on the streets How can this be just? Such cruelty Bodies in the dust Can't take this piety No one saves Those who preach With the blade Or deceit Something you will never doubt Something I will never have Falling further into darkness I never knew Slowly aging, rearranging, never changing, morbid views Feeling something, then it's nothing, someone show me, a real truth

Plaguing You 05:29
Darkness falls on your life again And you pull the curtains shut Hoping that someday the light will come Another shot to the foot From the pit of your despair and pain Your hands they desperately search Yet still the hole fills with the pouring rain Pale white fingers clamber at the dirt Slipping under and yet again Rescued by one you call your friend As soon as you are on your feet The 'friend' is subject to your deceit Never learn and you never will Exploiting everyone until They cannot take any more of this And back you fall into your abyss (I don't know what you want from me I don't know what you want me to be I don't know what is plaguing you I don't know what you want me to do) Everyone falls from time to time And everyone can need help It seems as though you cannot see the line No one matters no one except yourself Slipping under and yet again Rescued by one you call your friend As soon as you are on your feet The 'friend' is subject to your deceit Never learn and you never will Exploiting everyone until They cannot take any more of this And back you fall into your abyss (I don't know what you want from me I don't know what you want me to be I don't know what is plaguing you I don't know what you want me to do) Slipping under and yet again Rescued by one you call your friend As soon as you are on your feet The 'friend' is subject to your deceit Never learn and you never will Exploiting everyone until They cannot take any more of this And back you fall into your abyss (I don't know what you want from me I don't know what you want me to be I don't know what is plaguing you I don't know what you want me to do)

Complacent 06:45
Try so hard but to no avail It seems my acts are just in vain Every time I bend over backwards You kick me off my feet Passive like a timid slave I persevere 'til I nearly cave But every time I willingly return And all I want is to be loved by you And everything I do is ignored by you No one but you can take away the things that I love It's a power you possess that I just can't bear thinking of, it's too hard I let you into my head now I can't get you out Every minute of each day and night my head is filled with doubt, such doubt Isolated, I have no one else Paralysed by my dependence But still I try with all my might but why? Wishing that I could break away But my obsession forces me to stay So complacent as you exploit all I am And all I want is to be loved by you And everything I do is ignored by you No one but you can take away the things that I love It's a power you possess that I just can't bear thinking of, it's too hard I let you into my head now I can't get you out Every minute of each day and night my head is filled with doubt, such doubt Taking all that you can from me Causing damage that only I can see Simplistic mundane gestures that cripple me You keep on magnifying my insecurity And all I want is to be loved by you And everything I do is ignored by you No one but you can take away the things that I love It's a power you possess that I just can't bear thinking of, it's too hard I let you into my head now I can't get you out Every minute of each day and night my head is filled with doubt, such doubt

Once again I find I'm in too deep Once again I find I'm losing sleep Once again the time seems to fly by Once again I'm lost in those eyes I've been around here for far too long But I still love you even though it's wrong I've been and I've learned and I've gone astray But I'm still here to face another day Once again confusion's tainting me Once again she's the only thing I see Once again the pressure, it seems to build Once again I need her as a friend I've been around here for far too long But I still love you even though it's wrong I've been and I've learned and I've gone astray But I'm still here to face another day I've been around here for far too long But I still love you even though it's wrong I've been and I've learned and I've gone astray But I'm still here to face another day And so I find I'm here again Another close call to losing a friend And so I find it's for the best Sacrifice giving up more for less To face another day

Labyrinth 07:42
Come into this place and you'll never see the light again Taken, my life's worth Rituals of sadistic revenge Twisted, a product of lust Subsequently, punishment unjust Anger, none can stand a chance All just victims of my circumstance Trapped in captivity No answers lie in these walls Trapped by those who made me He will stay until he falls Blood of men around me No glint of sword and shield No displays of mercy For none were shown to me Fight, one that cannot be one (can't be won) Walls, they have nowhere to run (nowhere) So unfeeling, falling one by one (to run) She, she created me (she made me) He, created what you see (what you see) Chances taken, unending deceit No one has escaped This victory is mine to take Inside all these walls Hateful being Over death he crawls His head will be my prize I will end this sacrifice The slowly greying skies One last look as the light dies Smell of death and disdain Of hopelessness and pain Things will not be the same Everything will change Fight, one that cannot be one (can't be won) Walls, they have nowhere to run (nowhere) So unfeeling, falling one by one (to run) She, she created me (she made me) He, created what you see (what you see) Chances taken, unending deceit Why must she have betrayed? Look what she has made Walls around start to fade Freedom from the blade Fight, one that cannot be one (can't be won) Walls, they have nowhere to run (nowhere) So unfeeling, as it comes undone (to run) She, if only she could see (she should see) Now, what's become of me (become of me) Fallen rival, lying next to me (dies with me) No survival, mutual defeat (death sets me free)

Aesthetics 07:11
Such hypocrisy Such twisted beauty Burning desire only to judge Fake smile of reassurance I have never felt so alone as now But I'm not on my own by any stretch And so This feeling starts to grow I want, I hesitate The staring, hatred tearing through the air I feel like I can't stay because truth it has worn out Can't see the light of day for all the insults and doubt Isolated, I am warped just like wood in choking heat Rarely changes, no matter who you meet Sophisticated Domesticated Generalise, something of a frequency The crevasse is deeper than you'll ever see Time changes so many things I see But this plague it infests perpetually And so Do you want to know My flaws? My past mistakes? My deepest deepest insecurites? I feel like I can't stay because truth it has worn out Can't see the light of day for all the insults and doubt Isolated, I am warped just like wood in choking heat Rarely changes, no matter who you meet Some things are truly beautiful to me Aesthetics or morbid irony And so This feeling will not let go Still want, still hesitating Don't know just what you're creating I'm breaking you keep taking it all Too late now I fall into myself I feel like I can't stay because truth it has worn out Can't see the light of day for all the insults and doubt Isolated, I am warped just like wood in choking heat Rarely changes, no matter who you meet

A final writ; emotion from beyond the grave A double life; one that I never saw This confuses the life that I've led Well I feel useless now As you sit here inside my head How could I trust you, believe you and call you a friend? I was there But now it means nothing as your life has come to an end All your secrets and... Lies; that you weave Cries; let me grieve Why am I falling? The reaper comes calling Without you for answers it feels like I'm crawling and Absorbing life; never thinking of the ones you'd leave behind The hurt, the pain; of a world you never saw Amusing games that you played in your mind Well you lost cheaply now As the rest of us journey on You played the victim to justify self sacrifice, why bother? Now you're six feet under and I pay the ultimate price For your secrets and... Lies; that you weave Cries; let me grieve Why am I falling? The reaper comes calling Without you for answers it feels like I'm crawling and I drown my sorrows by flickering candlelight, hating That you've crossed the river and bid me a friendly goodnight With your secrets and... Lies; that you weave Cries; let me grieve Why am I falling? The reaper comes calling Without you for answers it feels like I'm crawling and

All my thoughts drifting apart A new sensation is clouding me Another presence, a mental intrusion Another mask takes what I see Myself looking back at me Delerium covers me He's hearing voices in his head Words from people lost instead Lies made of whispers 'I'm here for you' What can be done for him, what can we do? Sense of control so foreign and new I'm running in circles without a clue Losing myself in this turbulent hell My friend in the mirror, me myself (Someone else inside my mind Makes my choices from time to time I speak back to myself Struggle in my head I'm my friend in the mirror myself) Memories and sentimentals all fading The threat of losing control slowly growing Meditation and reflection results in someone else Running uphill, a losing battle, it doesn't make any sense He's hearing voices in his head Words from people lost instead Lies made of whispers 'I'm here for you' What can be done for him, what can we do? Sense of control so foreign and new I'm running in circles without a clue Losing myself in this turbulent hell My friend in the mirror, me myself (Someone else inside my mind Makes my choices from time to time I speak back to myself Struggle in my head I'm my friend in the mirror myself) Reflected being Another excludes me from all my thoughts The broken dreams Awaken with new memories A cold sweat I'm not alone I'm no longer free And now I'm sure That there's something else growing deep inside of me He's hearing voices in his head Words from people lost instead Lies made of whispers 'I'm here for you' What can be done for him, what can we do? Sense of control so foreign and new I'm running in circles without a clue Losing myself in this turbulent hell My friend in the mirror, me myself (Someone else inside my mind Makes my choices from time to time I speak back to myself Struggle in my head I'm my friend in the mirror myself)

Tireless efforts to escape Beautiful sight, what is this place? Thoughts of violence my unease growing Hatred, disdain, breaking, destroying Sight and voice are futile and useless This can't happen, just can't get through this I wanted that place Nothing more Found, a new way out, but a new doubt Is clawing its way through me Blind, by my own mind, I cannot fight I know now I should not be here Once my haven of infrequent peace Pain and confusion, they still increase The more I found about this place The less I understand about it At first it was somewhere I hid from all I had to face And now I just want out of it Breaking at the seams There's no respite Found, a new way out, but a new doubt Is clawing its way through me Blind, by my own mind, I cannot fight I know I should not be here Psychological, illogical, how is my mind breaking? Same, more of the same, drives me insane, and I can't get out Please end this now Someone stop this from controlling me Breaking at the seams There's no respite Found, a new way out, but a new doubt Is clawing its way through me Blind, by my own mind, I cannot fight I know I should not be here Psychological, illogical, how is my mind breaking? Same, more of the same, drives me insane, and I can't get out Where am I now?
