shadowline 04:52
the lines etched upon my face symbolize forgotten lies of yesterday's disgrace traveled cobblestones of dreams fastened by roadsigns leading to empty streets the lines etched upon this face symbolize the crimes of an older man's disgrace never a promise of anyone's fulfilled praying the waters at bay, be still this time I'll take my time this time I'll wait as the older man takes mine this time I'll take my time this boy's done time inside his mind I won't spend my time waiting for you to get yourself aligned I can't live my life for you this boy, boy, has been confused the lines etched upon this face run very much deeper than the smile on your face let's take all these toys outside this boy's no longer capable of holding it all inside the shadows consume lines upon my face take a look around, the result of our disgrace you say you'll feel better, to feel out of place the shadows cast a smile on my face

these four walls confine confine a mind eroded by time these walls restrain holding back the rain of a glacier's pain these walls are mine built of a steel like no other kind these four walls confine hands bound by faceless signs these walls can't contain me by mercy's grace I shall become free your absence, in time, will become obscured by stainless steel walls, you rest assured blessed be the powers that be that built these walls that contain me define a mind that can not see down six, under sound, is where I'll be these walls aren't built for two these walls never quite had room for you these days I've become sick by separation, yeah, and distance lift you up, tap a vein, inhale deep the rain sit you up, tap a vein, it will tear me down six feet I'll be found six under sound

crickets 04:29
sleep it comes like a fevered dream dislocated, and hauntingly, it seems she taunts her cold and lost embrace tears and fears rush gently upon my face hold me tenderly, help me patiently through this moment of absolute despair a recurring dream of a morbid affair save me from this disrepair I can't sleep this night not without a fight this room around me crawls another deranged nightfall sleep it comes like a fevered dream dislocated, and hauntingly Edgar Allen's prose and his 'slices of death' he takes my last breath when will my gate's lock break? or will this self-loathe seal my fate? let me rest, it's all I ask crickets that crawl upon my chest let me rest let me rest let me rest it's all I ask

today I taste the morning sun so soothing to these lips I resolve to hold myself calm without fits but again, today I lie another part of me has died the sun it burns so deep inside how I've lost the strength to even try hold myself, drown myself, burn myself relieve deceiver, accosted me bless myself, drown myself, rape me relieve deceiver, all cause of me in place of glass, a dark stone wall you held the keys to make my castle fall I stabbed them deep, I burned my eyes and now you stand above my size relinquish the throne, I'll never be king only a cowardly weakling give it up, give it up, give it up give it up, give it up, or let me down now, find what's light now, find my dawn tide's sight now, taste my sun tell me sweetly I'm not the only one you gave to me you took from me and now you smile? hypocrisy bathe in me relinquish me I'm leprosy now, find what's light now, find my dawn tide's sight now, taste my sun tell me sweetly I'm not the only one
