Funeral

You know we built our houses
Where we were burning bodies
The ground still remembers
The ground is still bloody
So if there's an above
And this is below
Then surely we can sink no further
And there's nowhere else to go
The stench of death was always here
As far as I recall
As were the sounds devoid of pleasure
Words laced with vitriol
Between now and then
Between us and them
Never will you see
Men and angels breaking bread
As above, so below
Spent is thy litany
Hate thy neighbour
Shake his hand and strike him dead
Weep in fear and wonderment
Of what you have become
A superman, a God on earth
Can't be others 'til there's one
Weep in fear and wonderment
Of what you have become
A superman and death itself
Can't be others 'til there's one
It'd take more than a few men
To put out the word
But they're of little potential
Men fall down and they fold
I call upon my memories now
But some seem to have departed
What I used to know is but a blur
I guess it mattered when it mattered
You know we built our houses
Where we were burning bodies
The ground remembers
The ground is still bloody
You're excused, but not forgiven
For whatever is past and done
For when you couldn't commit
This is a funeral
This is a funeral
This is a funeral

Be The Ghost
04:12

We're flaws and dreams of our fathers
We're made from little parts of others
Divorce the heart and the beating
Hold your breath, be taller
Be the ghost amongst the living
And my heart parts
These hands, they cannot protect me
And my tongue coils
The terrors are coming to take me
And I'm alone no matter what
No matter who holds my hand
But when I drown I wish the weight wasn't there
Its easier to go this way, I swear
Its easier for you to forget I was here
The sun is not a god, it too is dying
I'm not the only one that's sick of fighting
I'll share my grave with "rest" of the living
And silence will bring us back to the beginning
Oh, how can I sleep knowing what's coming?
Knowing what's coming
Oh, how can I sleep knowing what's coming?
Knowing what's coming

Control
03:05

|

Who will be here when its over?
See the doom and pull me closer?
No, you don't love me, you never have
And look how tall I've grown without your love
In endless darkness, we could float together
But you're not ready to be gone forever
No, you don't love me, you never have
And look how tall I've grown without your love
You keep your face
You keep control
Negotiate before you sell your soul
And you will live
If you don't let go
The past is just a hole
You can't fall in if you grow
As long as I am with you
Expect trouble
As long as I am with you
Expect to pay double
As long as I am with you
Expect trouble
As long as I am with you
Expect to pay double

Ghost Garden
04:42

If the sun does dare to turn its face away
I will lend my voice to darkness
If I'm exiled from the light of the day
I'll walk the night with the assassins
In this world
Where we are lords
We tend to forget
That death is God
And only death knows its reasons
Queen mother, pure and free
I'm only leaving dirt behind
Enough to bury me
I've little time to spare
But a minute to decide
To taste the sweetness of the air
Or gaze into the other side
And the touch of the sun
Fails to arouse me
I trap my shadow in doorways
To leave it behind me
I laugh, blackout drunk, bleeding out
In serendipity
For I smiled upon abyss
And abyss smiled back at me
I'm coming home
I now know
Those who are leaving
Shed all the weight
They won't be needing
But if I go to war
If I go today
No-one here will love this garden
Oh, if I go to war
If I go today
Keep your given word
Tend to my grave
If I go to war
If I go to war
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
And the touch of the sun
Fails to arouse me
I trap my shadow in doorways
To leave it behind me
I laugh, blackout drunk, bleeding out
In serendipity
For I smiled upon abyss
And abyss smiled back at me
I'm coming home

Out Of Reach
03:05
|
|

Oh sweet oblivion, kind to my memory
There's nothing left in this cruel world for you and for me
All I wanted to be
Is dead and out of reach
Oh isn't it something?
The crown I never claimed
The splendour never won
Oh my sweet girl, will you remember me when I am gone?
All I wanted to be
Is dead and out of reach
Oh isn't it something?
All I wanted to be
Is dead and out of reach
Oh isn't it something?
All I wanted to be
Is dead and out of reach
Oh isn't it something?
