Hymn For The Broken Denial Of Frailty & Twilight Deaths & Entrances Hymn For The Broken
Denial
Of Frailty & Twilight
Deaths & Entrances
--------
Persephone sings
I am lost without this headridden seed
You are only true when all else fails
You are the snake
Feeding to breathe
You are the snake in all its inelegant glory
Oh, this spartan soul sways
Of kings & queens & placid fields
& dreams of neverwhen
Oh, this spartan soul sways
The glue of dreams & skin,
jump onto the saviour machine again
Oh, you can seperate, you can lie
These are days
Oh, you can seperate, from this life
These are the days
We'll wipe this clean
Erase the only, the only deception
Oh, you can seperate, you can lie...
Persephone screams,
Angst & fear collide
Undecided, uninured
The light grows dim
So, this broken soul sways
Revisiting dreams of innocence & sin
Oh, you can seperate, you can lie
These are days
Oh, you can seperate, from this life
These are the days
We'll wipe this clean
Erase the only, the only deception
Oh, you can seperate, you can cry...
Denial
Nothing blank, nothing whole
From this void i'm immune
I can crawl out of your heart,
& i know that...Death's not the end of you
Falling Down
Stay with me
Falling Down
Stay with me
Please stay with me
Another razorblade
To light the dawn, to redress
Something lost in the middle of you
Something's gone again
Falling Down
Stay with me
Falling Down
Stay with me
Please stay with me...
Of Frailty & Twilight
This wind blows cold
Humming a sorry tune, of weakness & betrayal
We skirt around the truth...with the dance
Secrets & little white lies are far too frail
We become the void
Existing day to day
Smothered in the awful truth
Trust seems far away
I'm sorry i hurt you
Sorry i hurt you
Sorry i hurt you
But i was bored
I could never understand
Why this hate wears so thin
You were far too demanding now
These are the wages of sin...
Deaths & Entrances
this dysfunction is a badge
a matter of pride
a fallen blackened hole
hearts in transition now
we are battered
we are broken
lying ripped upon the floor
you appear well versed in the art of distance
this lilting tinge of misery
it's emblazoned across my chest
another open wound
weeps through every tired and fading day
i have bought
sight unseen into love
uncoloured by meaning
as the world winds home into a brand new day
don't start
just focus on playing the game
life in monocrome
swallowing bullets
you fell upon the knife
obscured by a thousand deaths and entrances
in pursuit of a hollow and flawed paradise
i have bought
sight unseen into love
uncoloured by meaning
spent a lifetime waiting for the flood to break
poles apart
and still focused on playing the game
so plastic and impure
never thought
the dance would end this way
trying to keep pace with emotion
never trip
never falter
i have bought
sight unseen into love
uncoloured by meaning
as the world winds home into a brand new day
poles apart
and still focused on playing the game
playing the game
playing the game...
