1. SILENCE IS SURRENDER

Falling from a place of grace
The closest hold just out of reach
Visions of a better time haunt my sleep
These tired hands are far too weak
To save this mass of flesh and guilt

Boundaries of existence have faded away
Suspended in between dimensions
Transformation incomplete

My soul has died and hollowed
Killed a lamb to save tomorrow
My silence is surrender
I fill the void with sadness
For pain is greater than absence
I'm tired of trying

I am not afraid to face the endless nothing
But I'm terrified that I cant change
What I'm becoming
I can't change what I've become


2. I WAS PROMISED THE WORLD

I've spent a lifetime fighting to remember
Now I surrender
So come what will

Minds die
Nothing lasts forever
Frail ties
Hold it all together
A common fate
Together we surrender
Not a single scar
Nothing to remember

Look at what we've become
So fucking cold
Bound by these strands of light
Imprisoned in my own mind
Look at what we've become
I was promised the world


3. WE ALL DISSOLVE

A choir of souls
The faintest echo
In a sea of white noise gone grey
The light washes over me
And blurs my edges
I begin where the world ends

Swallowed by myself
From the inside out
Creation in reverse
Destruction is rebirth


4. REGRET

What do I have to show for these 26 wasted years
A few tired glances
And two calloused hands
And a void which cant be filled


5. WITHOUT ARMS

I see myself without arms
Can't climb from this hole
So I wait for the floods to come
And hope my words reach you

From here the sky looks broken
So I collect the pieces
And try to put the picture
Back together

If I cant hold on
And the sun should fall from the sky
I will build a new
Light from the fire in my eyes

I see myself climbing
I see myself dying
