1. For Indifference

I choke on my bitterness
Because some things are better left unsaid

Hesitant is my instinctive venom
Since I've stepped out of this light

I said I'm sorry
The truth is I never was
Begging to be indifferent
I'll take you down with me

You're going down
I'll take you down

Falling
Scratching, tearing

Ripping, falling, melting
Scratching, tearing, bleeding, feeding

I said I'm sorry
The truth is I never am
Begging for indifference
I'll drag you down with me

You're going down
I'll drag you down

A toxified embrace holds me up
As my suicide increases
And my life skids out of control
Shouting back in my face

As I lose control of my hands and mind
As I reach for my peace

I claw at my eyes
Insensitivity looking away
Just like a raped mother to her child
I hate you just the same
I hate you

And when patience wears thin
Intentions watch hungrily transparent
Anxious to feast on your devotion
Anticipating that quenchless thirst

2. Fate's Design

Torn from slumber
Haze of sleep melts away
Inner peace splintered
Security decays

Praying for forgetful snows of winter to cover me
Tomb of ice surrounding, sheltering my blazing heart
Beating down the blooms of spring, deny awakening

Realize too late
You were not what I needed you to be

With blinders I race into the storm
Only to be struck down
Smashed on the rocks below

Conflicts of my heart and mind
Unknowing victim of fate's design
On broken knees, hands thrust towards the sky
Descend the cliffs praying to fly

Turn my back to the warning
With blinders I race into the storm
Only to be struck down
Smashed on the jagged rocks below

I reject your ideal
Deny my blood's one desire
Free fall through space
As I fall I burst into fire

3. Grifter

The gates open I drown
The magnet, the withdrawal
Offering these to you
Shamelessly ripping my guts out

How could I expect you to change your face?

A time lived by seconds
I unfold at your beckon
I will be passed by I am the minimal
The useless being

How could I expect you to change your face?
My memories out dated and weak
How could I expect it to? Well I do
How could I want it to?

I despise your charming attributes
Conjure up the summoned
Then left to contend with them
Stirring the killer, inviting this old ghost

After all, it's me that is drowning
My dream is the warped
They pick me clean
These vultures
I know now the door is open
I know now I must be dead

4. Forecast

I view deep in this reflection
It's just the outside world looking in
Even if I could escape is
Is suffocation
Cascading bursts of light
Illuminating from the silence

But I still wonder if pulling free is
Is necessary
What else could I do?
I feed off of your cruelty

Once again I torch this day
It probably never existed
I used to think I had a grasp
That door closed years ago

I predicted the armageddon
I predicted the absolute
My lack of insanity held me back
I could have saved you all
But why?
The sheep retain their wish
Swallowed
Swallowed in Hell-fire
Why?
The sheep retain their wish

Swallowed

I don't listen to tomorrow
I don't look beyond the overcast

I won't see the forecast anymore
I won't look beyond the overcast
