Door To The Past

nest of eggs in a sea of flames
the hideous breed endlessly
futureless, motionless womb
‘til the end of all that is
mysterious, malformed, misery
'til the end of all that is
reveler of tainted lives,
frolic feeds breeds endlessly
loss is all that is eternal
but to lose what we've become is all we gain
a breath cast through time, burning deep
spanned out through the dream forever caging me
grim visions, a haunted child
malediction, the deep chill
desperate plunge, last breath gone
anguished lung pains
sea of tears drinks my breath
bubbles form in my veins
I can now, see the plan structuring like spreading flames
look out to a silent pit, a tear filled trench, a sea so deep
close the door of the past
I want to lock it away
hear your cry from that side
underneath all that’s dead
close the door of the past
hear your cry I want to lock it away

banished light
the seasons turn back forever
diseased blood pollutes the bodies that still live
vanished souls will never see inside the deep rift
a blank earth refitted
snow and ice imprint
empty eyes, siphoned mind
we pray on the last of life, the last drop left
empty eyes, siphoned mind
we pray on the last of life
lord of flames, break our curse
maim the earth, quell our thirst
for the last drop left
hopeless one, dimensional thief
block out the sun
crawl to the next world
hopeless one
dimensional thief block out the sun
crawl to the next world
last drop, last drop left, for the last drop left

born to live a life bled dry
wrung out by the engorged
those that are paid to waste the earth have a blood line made of gold
plated in souls
the frames of shattered lives line the road cut from silk, circled by crows
the line stretches out for you
seen from your bay windows
priest prays out for you, out to your false idles,out to your island abode
the frames of shattered lives line the road cut from silk circled by crows
cut from silk circled by crows
a pain that isn't felt, a dead child grows inside
a hand that will be dealt from a deck full of lies
refuse to pay with my life
what dreams will come when we’re adrift, asleep, endlessly seeds die dry
plant a grave, wilt the earth
die cold and gray

airlifted to the nothing that comes chauffeured
to my pathetic grave
skin sinks to bone, eyes rot away
reduced back into ash
pushed through the flames
or imprisoned bone
disembodied, betrayed
watch over your grave
this day was unforetold
hephaestus
the arrival of the flames
burning the souls of all men
we know nothing
gasping for sight
afraid, inside, grinding the gears
screech to your hault, grinding the gears
screech to your hault
last minutes filled with pain
there is no vision for me
nothing inside, within the sunlight dims
putrid existence
can we give up this prize,
hide it away
beneath the bodies that have burned
agents of death
laid up to rest, just die
when did we go so blind
ages ago
refind the caves we have left seal us inside
disgrace, disgrace the earth
worship, worship your sins
disgrace, disgrace the earth
worship, worship your sins
taste blood, breathe
the stench of our sweat
your name is forgotten your life was for nothing
this earth is the perfect pit for burning our souls
falling faster, face first
falling faster have faith that we will not survive

the sky’s turning red with all this debt
we're lucky we're not dead
they’ll give you pills as long as you will pay
and when you stop you’ll be addicted any way
Iul
blatant profit off wasted lives
preserve your body
Tony
side by side and in a single file line
it’s the industrialized medical complex..
Iul
..and they can't wait to cash in your checks
how much time will i spend laid up hooked to plastic bags
multiplied by every vein i have
corporate drugs put a bullet in my head
and i see the road ahead
as I die in a hospital bed
the answer isn't found, i’m just counting down
the days medicated, naked in a gown
Tony
having to decide between medication or food
good luck paying your rent
there wasn’t anything left
lifetime living check to check
do you ever wonder why there’s nothing left
Adrian
how can I even afford to choke on my own blood
you want to help me, come kill me, go fund another war
it takes me so much to live and even more to die
how can i trust a bill of sale you've written with my blood
Tony
cold as life, let me begin
got all that money going to your head
provider networks changing their fucking terms
now you got to pay double even if it hurts
subrogate, they don’t care
if they did, it wouldn't be this way
making money off the needy and poor
crippling the next generation with extreme debt
the sky’s turning red
with all this debt we're lucky we’re not dead

Cursed Road

it's the beginning of the end, we’ve lied to ourselves for years
look out to the gods that died and wonder why anyones been spared
freeze in the warmth
blood blanket, I need your warmth
blood blanket, so please come forth
blood blanket, sleep in the morgue
blood blanket, die dreamless
eyes burn in my skull night after night
every throat emptied out, mouth dryer
every breath tears my gums
night after night every drop, emptied out
stains from the past envelop this earth, bleach this cursed road
the teeth that sunk in my jugular vein
you should not tap
thirsting for blood
eviscerate the mind,thirst unquenched
hunting, seeking, the thrill unending
one thousand faceless skulls new my true name
they loved me once, have rotted away
static warmth ensues
tragic endeavors
loving their treasures
awareness within
exsanguinated flesh hangs from the mantel
lust, feast, plea, flee
adornment, torment, voiceless husks
end this pain,end my pain withered alone
searching for my lost companion
it drains my life, twists like a knife
through every decade, stained like the earth
burn every tree in all directions
red like the sky, dead like the ground we excavated
glass face,new stomach dry pale, cold dead
fuck
know me, know every unburied memory
can't die, can't live, I cry
one more night alive
take your last breath slow empty one more throat walking this cursed road
