Trauma unbinds me
Pages spill out
Flood,
Overtake
Everything
And anything
The ego sheds
Detachment now
A loss profound
A heart that tears will
Bleed, endless
Breathless, I fall
Help me up
Help me up.
I wish I could undo the
Years spent drowning this in dust.
I found the deafening silence so
Comforting. I lost all I had
Back then
Back then
Back then.
Underneath all this,
A weak heart beats, still true.
Underneath always,
A fading light still burns.
I tried to believe it all,
Tried to keep faith that
This would end someday.
But still it comes crashing,
Still the pain resounds.
I’m lost and out of rope.
You’re more than this...
You’re more than the
Things you’ve done
This hate turned in
The loss profound
Detach,
Detach.
You’re more than this.
You’re more than this,
I promise.

I’ve grown sick of living in my own skin
I’ve tried so long to find a way out
Night after night, lost in a bottle
Night after night, lost in transit
The next station’s still a far way out
The line goes nowhere, I’ve bottomed out
The grave calls its name, I’ve bottomed out
“It’s not enough. It’s never enough.”
I know how this all ends
It’s been with me every step.
I know, it won’t let me go
It won’t me live, I know.
My hands. My wrists.
My hands. My wrists.
Too sick to live, too weak to die.
Too sick to live, too weak to die.
Too sick to live, too weak to die.
Too sick to live, too weak to die.

The coldest morning
On the wrong side of June
Sunset shimmer lost
On flowers full bloom
Full bloom
Full bloom
I remember petals, scattered across
The roof where we kissed,
The wind on my skin,
Still burning. Remembering…
It got harder this week
It’s been harder all year
The walls come back
They break me down
I can’t figure how
To stand,
To breathe,
To love,
To leave
You broke me
The whole way through.
The years have passed
And you’ve moved on
But I’m still here
Lost and alone
Tattered in shame
Unable to sleep
What gave you the right?
To take my worth?
My fucking choice?
All I have
And all you took
Will wilt away.
October air.
October air.

Catacombs

Nothing changes if nothing changes....
I wanted more from life
Than failed beginnings
I wanted you to know
I never stopped trying
I wanted more from this
Than hollow reflections
I wanted you to see
That things could get better
I stumble and fall
Afraid of the call
I’m on my last straw
Afraid to withdraw
For all the pain I caused you, I’m sorry. I’m sorry.
For all the things that I said, I meant them. I meant them.
The addict falls on his own words.
The drugs destroy everything he loves.
The streets are littered with the dead.
These catacombs we call home.
It’s time to move out.

Virtue

The first day the moon rose last
I felt regret, I felt a hole
The first day I lost it all...
The first time we drowned out here
The light went out, a blackness creeped
The last time I felt like this…
I think I’m losing sleep again
I think I’m losing
I think I’m falling
I think I’m falling in love with this
I think I’m dying
I think I’m trying
O’ hallowed be thy name, fault of mine
I follow you, I fall behind
The heart still pines, the heart still
Pines
I think I’m losing sleep again
I think I’m losing
I think I’m falling
I think I’m falling in love with this
I’m dead on dying
I’m dead on trying
The virtue of the moon:
It turns back, haunting
Ashen shores, a will divine
This thirst of mine,
I wanted more
The virtue of the self:
It prays for something else
Another life, a wave of Bliss. I’m sick of this,
I wanted more
I’d be better if
I could just hold on
I’d be better if
I could let this go

A Heart Still Pines

I want to let go
I want to let go / the salty wind
I want to let go / the heavy waves
I want to let go / a heart still pines
I want to let go / there must be more
I want to let go / than ashen shores
I want to let go / a loss profound
I want to let go / this will divine
I want to let go / there must be more
Than tattered shame / we’re tight on time
I take the blame / I felt it all
I take a hit / there’s nothing more
There must be more / there’s nothing more
Than ashen shores / we found the light
A loss profound / beneath your veins
A loss profound / there’s nothing more
A loss profound / there’s nothing more
A loss profound / there’s nothing more
A loss profound / there’s nothing more
A loss profound / there’s something else
The salty winds / there must be more
There must be more / there’s something else
A heart still pines / there must be more
There must be more / there’s something else
The heavy waves / there must be more
A heart still pines.
A heart still pines.
Your heart still...
