Miseria Cantare
Love your hate, your faith lost You are now one of us Love your hate, your faith lost You are now one of us Nothing from nowhere, I'm no one at all Radiate, recognize one silent call As we all form one dark flame... Incinerate Nothing from nowhere, I'm no one at all Radiate, recognize one silent call As we all form one dark flame As we all form one dark flame As we all... Love your hate, your faith lost You are now one of us Love your hate, your faith lost You are now one, one of us The Leaving Song Pt. 2 Don't waste your touch, you won't feel anything Or were you sent to save me? I've thought too much, you won't find anything... Worthy of redeeming To he esta-do agui muchas veces antes y regreso To... break down, and cease all feeling Burn now, what once was breathing Reach out, and you may take my heart away Imperfect cry, and scream in ecstasy So what befalls the flawless? Look what I've built, it shines so beautifully Now watch as it destroys me Y regreso agui otra vez y comienzo To... break down, and cease all feeling Burn now, what once was breathing Reach out, and you may take my heart away Break down, and cease all feeling Burn now, what once was breathing Reach out, and you may take my heart away I left it all behind, and never said goodbye I left it all behind, and never said goodbye I left it all behind, and never said goodbye I left it all to die I saw its birth, I watched it grow I felt it change me I took the life, I ate it slow Now it consumes me I... break down, and cease all feeling Burn now, what once was breathing Reach out, and you may take my heart away Break down, and cease all feeling Burn now, what once was breathing Reach out, and you may take my heart away ... Heart away Bleed Black I am exploring the inside, I find it desolate I do implore these confines, now, as they penetrate, "recreate me" I'm hovering throughout time, I crumble in these days I crumble, I cannot, I cannot find reflection in these days (If you listen) Listen, listen (Listen close) Beat by beat (You can hear when the heart stops) I saved the pieces (When it broke) And ground them all to dust I am destroyed by the inside, I disassociate I hope to destroy the outside, it will alleviate and elevate me Like water flowing into lungs, I'm flowing through these days As morphine tears through deadened veins, I'm numbing in these days So... (If you listen) Listen, listen (Listen close) Beat by beat (You can hear when the heart stops) I saved the pieces (When it broke) And ground them all to dust I know what died that night, it can never be brought back to life Once again, I know I know I died that night and I'll never be brought back to life Once again, I know (If you listen) Listen, listen (Listen close) Beat by beat (You can hear when the heart stops) I saved the pieces (When it broke) And ground them all to dust So... (If you listen) Listen, listen (Listen close) Beat by beat (You can hear when the heart stops) I saved the pieces (When it broke) And ground them all to dust Silver And Cold I... I came here by day, but I left here in darkness And found you, found you on the way And now, it is silver and silent, it is silver and cold You, in somber resplendence, I hold Your sins into me Oh, my beautiful one Your sins into me As a rapturous voice escapes, I will tremble a prayer And I'll beg for forgiveness (Your sins into me) Your sins into me Oh, my beautiful one Light, like the flutter of wings, feel your hollow voice rushing into me As you're longing to sing So I... I will paint you in silver, I will wrap you in cold I will lift up your voice as I sink Your sins into me Oh, my beautiful one, now Your sins into me As a rapturous voice escapes, I will tremble a prayer And I'll beg for forgiveness (Your sins into me) Your sins into me Cold in life's throws, I'll fall asleep for you Cold in life's throws, I only ask you turn away Cold in life's throws, I'll fall asleep for you Cold in life's throws, I only ask you turn As they seep... into me, oh, my beautiful one, now Your sins into me Oh, my beautiful one Your sins into me As a rapturous voice escapes, I will tremble a prayer And I'll beg for forgiveness (Your sins into me) Your sins into me... oh Your sins into me Oh, my beautiful one, now Your sins into me As a rapturous voice escapes, I will tremble a prayer And I'll beg for forgiveness (Your sins into me) Your sins into... (Your sins into me) Your sins into me Oh, my beautiful one Dancing Through Sunday Will you join me in this dance, this dance of misery Cradled in imposs... impossibility? Swooning, I am swept away Swept off my feet, with step by step by step We take the lead as drop by drop, we start... to bleed (Oh, we dance in misery) And we dance on, and we dance on (Oh, we dance in misery) All lost in the arms of our misery, oh (Oh, we dance in misery) And we dance on, and we dance on Swept off our feet by our misery, we're swept into the shadows Will you lend yourself to beauty that will horrify? Let me hide within your black, the still inside your eyes Deafened, caught within a cry So sensual, as step by step by step, I seperate As breath to breath, as I... suffocate (Oh, we dance in misery) And we dance on, and we dance on (Oh, we dance in misery) All lost in the arms of our misery, oh (Oh, we dance in misery) And we dance on, and we dance on Swept off our feet by our misery, we're swept into the shadows So who will follow? Who is the lead? I know I'll leave a stain, because I bleed As we dance, we all dance We all... have no chance in this horrid romance (Oh, we dance in misery) And we dance on, and we dance on (Oh, we dance in misery) All lost in the arms of our misery, oh (Oh, we dance in misery) And we dance on, and we dance on Swept off our feet by our misery, we're swept into the shadows Swept off our feet by our misery, we're swept into the shadows Girl's Not Gray I'll lay me down tonight Much further down Swim in the calm tonight This art does drown (What follows) me as the whitest lace of light (Will swallow whole) just begs to be imbrued? What follows has lead me to this place where I belong, with all erased All insects sing tonight The coldest sound I'd send God's grace tonight Could it be found? (What follows) me as the whitest lace of light (Will swallow whole) just begs to be imbrued? What follows has lead me to this place where I belong, with all erased I'll lay me down tonight Much further down Watch stars go out tonight On sinking ground I'll lay me down, I'll lay me down (What follows) me as the whitest lace of light (Will swallow whole) just begs to be imbrued? What follows has lead me to this place where I belong, with all erased What follows will swallow whole What follows will swallow whole Death Of Season Of late, it's harder just to go outside To leave this deadspace with hatred, so alive Writhing with sickness, thrown into banality, I decay Killed by the weakness, but forced to return, turn it off I watch the stars as they fall from the sky I held a fallen star and it wept for me, dying I feel the fallen stars encircle me now, as they cry Out there so quickly grows malignant tribes Posthuman extinction excels unrecognized Feeling surrounded, so bored with mortality, I decay All of this hatred is fuking real, turn it on... yeah I watch the stars as they fall from the sky I held a fallen star and it wept for me, dying I feel the fallen stars encircle me now, as they cry It won't be all right despite what they say Just watch the stars tonight as they, as they disappear, disintegrate And I disintegrate 'cause this hate is fuking real And I hope to shade the world as stars go out and I disintegrate The Great Disappointment I can remember a place I used to go Chrysanthemums of white, they seemed so beautiful I can remember, I searched for the amaranth I'd shut my eyes... to see Oh, how I smiled then, so near the cherished ones I knew they would appear... saw not a single one Oh, how I smiled then, waiting so patiently I'd make a wish... and bleed While I waited I was wasting away While I waited I was wasting away I can remember... dreamt them so vividly Soft creatures draped in white, light kisses gracing me I can remember when I first realized Dreams were the only place to see them While I waited I was wasting away While I waited I was wasting away While I waited I was wasting away Hope was wasting away Faith was wasting away I was wasting away I never, never wanted this I always wanted to believe I never, never wanted this How could I have become? I never, never wanted this But from the start I'd been deceived I never, never wanted this How could I have become? I never, never wanted this I always wanted to believe I never, never wanted this I never, never wanted this But from the start I'd been deceived I never, never wanted this Inside a crumbling effigy But you promised So dies all innocence But you promised me While I waited I was wasting away While I waited I was wasting away While I waited I was wasting away Hope was wasting away Faith was wasting away I was wasting away Paper Airplanes (Makeshift Wings) Raise high monolithic statues so fragile as they fall I am ever enthralled Gaze, lie and smirk in time, your arrogance will suit you well 'Til fashion is dispelled As waves of plastic fame go out of fashion You're going out, going out forever unknown These waves of plastic fame go out of fashion (These waves of plastic fame are drying up and I smile) You're going out, going out forever unknown (Because you're dying to become forever unknown, unkown) From above a rain of ashes descends Anathema I will remain, forever will remain From below, in my seclusion Look up to the sky to see paper wings and watch them burn Without habitation, you'll never find a soul inside No life, but nothing's died No lights, but quite the show (Just as long as no one ever knows All motion is pantomime) As waves of plastic fame go out of fashion You're going out, going out forever unknown These waves of plastic fame go out of fashion (These waves of plastic fame are drying up and I smile) You're going out, going out forever unknown (Because you're dying to become forever unknown, unkown) From above a rain of ashes descends Anathema I will remain, forever will remain From below, in my seclusion Look up to the sky to see paper wings and watch them burn Dancing in the rain of descending ash Dancing on your grave, I'll see you all falling Dancing in the rain of descending ash Dancing in your dust, I'll see you all falling I'd stop it, had you a heart I'd stop it, had you a heart From above a rain of ashes descends Anathema I will remain, forever will remain From below, in my seclusion Look up to the sky to see paper wings and watch them burn This Celluloid Dream Calling tears from deep inside, oh, you're so exquisite And in the mirror, all midnight eyes Oh, if I could remain, but it's just a visit All midnight eyes read "vacancy" Twisted, twisting To the lovely dancing lights, I begged, "May I cut in?" But they never stopped playing "their song" Of a joyous song the sing, I've heard whispers On a freezing note, I resonate Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end Just like a memory, it twists me Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end Twist... twisting me You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic Onto the melting boy, and melt away You light as gently, you're so cinematic Bathed in your radiance, I melt In the glitter, in the dark, sunk into velvet Praying this will never end In the shadow of a star, in static pallor I realized I never began Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end Just like a memory, it twists me Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end Twist... twisting me You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic Onto the melting boy, and melt away You light as gently, you're so cinematic Bathed in your radiance, I melt All the colours upon leaving, all will turn to grey All the colours upon leaving, all will turn to grey (All grey) All the colours (All grey) upon leaving (All grey) all will turn to grey (All grey) All the colours (All grey) upon leaving (All grey) all will turn to grey... grey... You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic Onto the melting boy, and melt away You light as gently, you're so cinematic Bathed in your radiance You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic You land as lightly as the new snow, and melt away You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic Bathed in your radiance, I melt The Leaving Song Walked away, heard them say "Poison hearts will never change, walk away again" Turned away in disgrace Felt the chill upon my face cooling from within It's hard to notice gleaming from the sky When you're staring at the cracks It's hard to notice what is passing by with eyes lowered You... walked away, heard them say "Poisoned hearts will never change, walk away again" All the cracks will lead right to me And all the cracks will crawl right through me All the cracks, they lead right to me And all the cracks will crawl right through me, and I fell apart As I... walked away, heard them say "Poisoned hearts will never change" Walked away again Turned away in disgrace Felt the chill upon my face cooling from within ...But Home Is Nowhere Twenty-six years and seems like I've just begun To understand my, my intimate is no one When the director sold the show, who bought its last rites? They cut the cast, the music, and the lights This is my line, this is eternal How did I ever end up here? Discarnate, preternatural My prayers to disappear Absent of grace, marked as infernal Ungranted in dead time left me disowned To this nature, so unnatural I remain alone Twenty-six years end, still speaking in these tongues Such revelations while understood by no one When the new actor stole the show, who questioned his grace? Please clear the house of ill-aquired taste This is my line, this is eternal How did I ever end up here? Discarnate, preternatural My prayers to disappear Absent of grace, marked as infernal Ungranted in dead time left me disowned To this nature, so unnatural I remain alone Give me something, give me something Give me something, give me something Give me something, give me something real I lay strewn across the floor, can't solve this puzzle Everyday another small piece can't be found I lay strewn across the floor, pieced up in sorrow The pieces are lost, these pieces don't fit Pieced together incomplete and empty This is my line, this is eternal How did I ever end up here? Discarnate, preternatural My prayers to disappear Absent of grace, marked as infernal Ungranted in dead time left me disowned To this nature, so unnatural I remain alone This is my line, this is eternal How did I end up here? Discarnate, preternatural My prayers to disappear Absent of grace, marked as infernal Ungranted in dead time left me disowned To this nature, so unnatural I remain alone [Untitled] We held hands on the last night on earth. Our mouths filled with dust, we kissed in the fields and under trees, screaming like dogs, bleeding dark into the leaves. It was empty on the edge of town but we knew everyone floated along the bottom of the river. So we walked through the waste where the road curved into the sea and the shattered seasons lay, and the bitter smell of burning was on you like a disease. In our cancer of passion you said, "Death is a midnight runner." The sky had come crashing down like the news of an intimate suicide. We picked up the shards and formed them into shapes of stars that wore like an antique wedding dress. The echoes of the past broke the hearts of the unborn as the ferris wheel silently slowed to a stop. The few insects skittered away in hopes of a better pastime. I kissed you at the apex of the maelstrom and asked if you would accompany me in a quick fall, but you made me realize that my ticket wasn't for two. I rode alone. You said, "The cinders are falling like snow." There is poetry in despair, and we sang with unrivaled beauty, bitter elegies of savagery and eloquence. Of blue and grey. Strange, we ran down desperate streets and carved our names in the flesh of the city. The sun was stagnated somewhere beyond the rim of the horizon and the darkness is a mystery of curves and lines. Still, we lay under the emptiness and drifted slowly outward, and somewhere in the wilderness we found salvation scratched into the earth like a message. This Time Imperfect I cannot leave here, I cannot stay Forever haunted, more than afraid Asphyxiate on words I would say I'm drawn to a blackened sky as I turn blue There are no flowers, no, not this time There will be no angels gracing the lines, just these stark words I find I'd show a smile but I'm too weak I'd share for you, could I only speak, just how much this hurts me I cannot stay here, I cannot leave Just like all I loved, I'm make believe Imagined heart, I disappear Seems... no one will appear here and make me real There are no flowers, no, not this time There will be no angels gracing the lines, just these stark words I find I'd show a smile but I'm too weak I'd share with you, could I only speak, just how much this hurts me I'd tell you how it haunts me I'd tell you how it haunts me Cuts through my day and sinks into my dreams I'd tell you how it haunts me Cuts through my day and sinks into my dreams You don't care that it haunts me There are no flowers, no, not this time There will be no angels gracing the lines, just these stark words I find I'd show a smile but I'm too weak I'd share with you, could I only speak, just how much this hurts me Just how much this hurts me Just how much you... Synesthesia Heartbreak, incarnate, I'm nothing if not your memories Heartbreak, please let me be enjoying your pain Someday, I will be... I'll be the common voice for community Because I am a man who'll forever be Where all remaining failed Please let me understand I'm your pillow Letters of past so distant and wrinkled Please let me understand I'm your pillow Letters of past so distant and wrinkled (Just say...) Say you will follow me (follow me) Invite me to your memory (Just sing...) Sing again for me (for me) That long forgotten song Heartbreak, incarnate, I'm nothing if not your memories Heartbreak, please let me be enjoying your pain Someday, I will be... I'll be that what you want from a failing dream Because I will, I may at best Be as low as you feel Please let me understand I'm your pillow Letters of past look distant and wrinkled Please let me understand I'm your pillow Letters of past look distant and wrinkled (Just say...) Say you will follow me (follow me) Invite me to your memory (Just sing...) Sing again for me (for me) That long forgotten song Let me be all the words Let me be all the words Let me be all the words Let me be all the words Let me feel the words echo in comfort Let me be all the words that you'd unsay Let me feel the words echo in comfort, comfort, comfort, comfort Let me be all the words that you'd unsay, unsay, unsay, unsay Let me feel the words echo in comfort Let me be all the words that you'd unsay Let me feel the words echo in comfort, comfort... comfort Let me be all the words that you'd unsay, unsay, unsay, unsay |
