KITTIE LYRICS

1. I've Failed You

The colors of my summer dress have led out, faded to grey
I wear it like a scarlet letter, I cannot wipe away this stain
Can't you see that I've failed you
Look now I've failed you
Ugly and telling, I rub my hands but still, the dirt remains
Just let me lie here,
For its the fucking bed I made.
Can't you see that I've failed you
Look now I've failed you

2. We Are The Lamb

Tied to this post, without foresight, of what's to come
The lamb he sings, the song of the martyr
He is the chosen one
The one to help us fail. The one to let us grow
The torch is passed on. We are the lamb
And who have we become now? A life longed to be lived?
Our fierce love, destined to destruct
By our own selfish hands.
The one to help us fail As blood runs cold
The torch is passed on, We are the lamb
We have so much to gain,
But our hearts won't let us learn
Blinded by the pain of loss
And who have we become now?
We are the lamb

3. Whisper Of Death

All that I had,
I let slip through my hands
Poison to everything I touch.
The things I've done, so ruinous
Decaying love, a bondage broken,
Crumbling in my hands
Every word, destroying us
From my lips, born plague and death
The ghosts of the past come back to haunt me
Dressed in ash
The coldest whisper of death,
Breathing the end
Burn it down like a wildfire,
Goodbye my friend
I've learned to live without life
Defeat has taken my dying light
Lay down your arms, lay down your heart
The weight of your gravestone
the weight of my regret
A heavy heart as cold as marble
The promise, defying us
Weakness became my
greatest strength

4. What Have I Done?

These tears I've cried a thousand
I'm slowly losing ground
Oh, what have I done?
Oh, a setting sun
Oh, what have I done?
Oh, a setting sun
In silence Cold December
Just barely treading water
If to live is to suffer,
I have lived a thousand lives
Over and over, had my happiness denied
Lifeless and souless and
loveless and hopeless
A pathetic mess in a heap on the floor
I am the catalyst,
destroyer of my own world

5. Empires (Part 1)

[Instrumental]

6. Empires (Part 2)

You learn to swim, if it doesn't kill you
Cried this ocean to reality
Tides will wash away what's left of the city,
And the flood will pull you under with me
These streets have all but been abandoned
Even empires will fall
And here we are, we sit in silence
There is nothing left to say
Our lives lay scattered in the
midst of the ruins
Giving up is the only way
These streets have all but
been abandoned
Even empires will fall
These castles somehow built
to crumble
Even empires will fall
Let the waves overtake me
As I fall to the floor
Let the black water fill me
Love exists here no more

7. Come Undone

I cast away the last of these cahins
A loveless servitude awaits
A starlight delusion, the whisper of change
Feeds me like a starving wolfe
The blood of your own act
Marking the night sky
And follows you wherever you go
Freedom of will, extends out before me
Into the unknown
Out Of the fire
Rise from the flame
I've come undone
Born of a bad sign
As black as the night sky
The endless darkness heaves
A prison, built of our own flesh
Painted with the blood of deceit
To break away from the comfort of safety,
And dance with an untamed beast
Enslaved by an unrest, a self imposed exile
To mourn alone, my only release
There's no turning back
We will forever be,
united in loss

8. Already Dead

Destroy the spirit and the body will follow,
unraveling before you
No pulse, the void of my heart
Warmth and meter cease
I felt the end upon me but
I was already dead
A silence without warning
I was already dead
I writhe amongst the worms,
mmy words are now my spade.
Raising my hands to the sky,
The light forever beyond my reach
I felt the end upon me
I was already dead
A silence without warning
I was already dead
This is my curse
A waking nightmare
The plague of man defies me
I fear the worst
There is nothing inside me
