I can still feel it here acrid and unmovable its eyes never blinking I cannot look away worse I hear it singing ancient yet understood. The wards are holding they are not permanent oh its WORDS are seeping bleeding straight through the wall come preserve me father do not forsake me now light so quickly fading where is the blessed dawn. hope I have abandoned nothing can save me now its WORDS compel me forcing my writers hand know she was not crazy that lonely jackson girl she like me could see it her WORDS were not here own.

Still Air 04:28
The night is silent a cloudless empty sky the air is still here a total lack of light. Moving in the shadows the darkness wears her face no longer hiding I cant escape its gaze. I know the silence that is here its secrets are finally revealed a darker purpose made for me theese wounds will never ever heal our mortal souls cannot be saved we’ll be eternally enslaved when your downfall finally comes you will know you’ve been betrayed

As...Light begins to fade You...Have yourself to blame Now...As lightning fills her eyes You...You will pay the price. Fly...Like moths drawn to the flame You...You attract their gaze Now...The whispers fill your ears You Find...You have much to fear.

Deathless 05:08
Commanding demanding these instruments of vertigo I strum alone by myself but not myself. It snares me a thrall enthralled compelled to act at its behest the sounds so wrong to educated ears of man. All by myself I’m not alone in this my sanctuary home I fear this time I’ve gone to far. It reads my thoughts it reads my mind there is no safe place I can find opened the door I didn’t know. DEATHLESS. Oh whats the use I’m giving in seduced by darkness I have been if there is hope its not for me. Older than death stranger than time I twist the weak and fragile mind you hear my WORDS but not my voice. DEATHLESS

Happy People 04:46
I long to feel it my tired bones I’m nearly finished I’ll soon be home my hand is steady my voice is strong my eyes are heavy and I begin to understand. This is the end its come to pass without any fear I breathe my last This is the end its come at last without any fear I breathe my last. The nameless city that fills my dreams is soon upon me I will not grieve what have I written what have I done need explanation but there is NONE… This is the end its come to pass without any fear I breathe my last This is the end its come at last without any fear I breathe my last.
