- All The Stars Are Falling
Time to lose
Time to mourn
Time to guide this raft on
On through the storm
When counting to ten-thousand
With our eyes closed
I'm sure that island's on the other side
A blink away
- Ascension Day
I tried to find some silence in this shallow space.
I pushed pillows in my ears - I concealed my face.
No, don't you even try to catch my eye, it sits frozen in it's place.
Here it's invitation only...I'm lonely, but I'm forced to say
That I cannot see you now.
Yet everywhere I walk I'm crushing something
Because I cannot see the stairs.
I'd share my sores with you over coffee,
- Double Spades Effect
Don't try to bluff
I'm wearing these shades
I anticipate the moves that you make
I'm calling you now
I'm watching you sweat
I'm shaking you down
If I were your friend, well, I'd hit you now
I must stay ahead
- In Search of My Rose
I found you crying outside on the wall of Devil's Well
A hangman's knot around your feet
And praying for the spell to be shattered.
May I be the one to rip the shackles clean away
and lead you to a place
where loneliness is tackled with a kiss?
- Isis Veiled
They're closing in, I switched the pictures
Painted all the walls
I hung the medals, hid the magazines
As caped crusaders crawled down freedom street
Guns of liberation ushered in the dawn
One guy wears an eyepatch while the other wears a tie
One will play the liberator the other run and hide
I hear the cannons crack a mile down freedom street
- Romulus And Venus
Everything you gave me lies within a trunk,
within a drawer. I burned one
hundred photographs or more.
I fled across the ocean with another face,
another name. Nothing but my soul remained the same.
But still you came
with cases, I was forced to let you stay.
You bought the locks, the box in
- The Center Bullet
Dead shot through the temple
In the temple heard the preacher screech
I bored you full of holes Lucretia
Saw you crease up in a ball
As if you swallowed your own poison
Followed as you crawled up to the altar
