Something to be Needed 02:58

I stare from my place across the room I know what he will have to do Start with the knife, it is more fun It is what I did, but mine is done As the blade touches her cheek, her tears turn red She says “we’ll be fine”; but, five minutes, she’s dead Kill because it is not my hand “Good job, son”; I’m not a fan “Do your best”; I don’t get support Nor praise for all my effort As the blade touches her cheek, her tears turn red She says “we’ll be fine”; but, five minutes, she’s dead Am I your one Am I your one Am I your one Am I your one As the blade touches her cheek, her tears turn red She says “we’ll be fine”; but, five minutes, she’s dead What is my purpose, I don’t provide the gun What is my reason, I don’t survive for anyone What is my whole, I don’t have a self What is my honesty, I’ve no hand to be dealt As the blade touches her cheek, her tears turn red She says “we’ll be fine”; but, five minutes, she’s dead Am I your one Am I your one Am I your one Am I your one Am I your one Am I your one Am I your one Am I your one

Catching Up 04:15

His throat is gone, as if he missed Hand still finished, barrel kissed That makes it two with missing toes One less eye and broken bones Clearly he knew when at the end He forced himself to contend There’s no match, as if a ghost We’ll have to wait, maybe he’ll boast Dear all those who think them smart I flutter about, tearing apart Seek and search, as if I’m near I hope you simply sleep in fear I know my self Blade starts to sing I know their health Knife kills to sting My whole plans have been executed As if suicide were something to be betted You trace a path that can’t be repeated I am smarter, I can’t be defeated Just remember, this is your fault Don’t forget, I can’t be bought If you try again, I’ve planned ahead Eat your brain, I’m already dead Dear all those who think them smart I flutter about, tearing apart Seek and search, as if I’m near I hope you simply sleep in fear I know my self Blade starts to sing I know their health Knife kills to sting Dear all those who think them smart I flutter about, tearing apart Seek and search, as if I’m near I hope you simply sleep in fear I know my self Blade starts to sing I know their health Knife kills to sting

Killing Booth 03:19
lyrics

My eye starts to twitch and my throat is dry I need new beauty, portfolio-mine I want to suck, I want to drain My tongue slithers for new red rain I hate your lies; eat glass eyes I hate your fleas; absent grease I will feast tonight I’ll eat to consume fright Forgotten accept truth Steal your life, Killing Booth I’ve got a hole in my thumb I am tonight’s current sun Seeping blood on my old soul And I am tomorrow’s foal I hate your mind; pay in-kind I hate your hope; it helps me cope I will feast tonight I’ll eat to consume fright Forgotten accept truth Steal your life, Killing Booth I’ve stalled long enough, I cannot wait I’ll forego the use of typical bait Maybe I’ll change, it’s time to adapt I want more excitement from my trap This time I won’t write myself in No hints to help my ragged grin I don’t want to provide insight I’m selfish, fuck your human blight

Sacrificial 03:55
lyrics

You will be mine; I will own you You will be mine; I will eat you You will be mine; I can’t wait to have you You will be mine; I will kill you I cannot feel; your pain will entertain I cannot feel; your fear’s in vain I cannot feel; your hatred’s a game I cannot feel; your ignorance shame You will be my sacrificial Eyes are gifts but superficial My taste does love your hiding mind My love does taste of your killing bind You will not move; I’ve done the work You will not move; I no longer lurk You will not move; I have you now You will not move; take a final bow You cannot be; anything new You cannot be; I already drew You cannot be; I’ll never be free You cannot be; sucking life vitality You will be my sacrificial Eyes are gifts but superficial My taste does love your hiding mind My love does taste of your killing bind

Down in the Toy-Box 06:49
lyrics

When did you last listen to the wind You should lose your ears for sin Why did you last taste the sea You should lose your tongue for me What did you last smell in the field You should lose your nose to yield How did you last touch the Earth You should lose your hands, rebirth But you will always have your eyes I won’t relieve you of all their guilt I will make you open blinds You won’t die from what I have built Slice through what’s in the way I’ll drop your health for you Sleep will continue to stay at bay You’ll never again be whole or true I can’t feel my legs I can’t feel my hands Forget my begs Forgive my lands I won’t be free; but, I’ll fly the sky You can’t hurt me; break I’ve already tried The world left me; too bad you’ve already lied Your pain haunts me; forgive me when I’ve died I won’t be free; but, I’ll fly the sky You can’t hurt me; break I’ve already tried You can’t - run away - I know you, you will do I can’t - hide away - It is true, but you too But you will always have your eyes I won’t relieve you of all their guilt I will make you open blinds You won’t die from what I have built Slice through what’s in the way I’ll drop your health for you Sleep will continue to stay at bay You’ll never again be whole or true I’ll hide what’s my purview What else can I do I don’t care anymore I’m just sick to you I can’t feel your legs I can’t feel your hands Forget your begs Forgive your lands

Personal Original Sin 04:16
lyrics

I have started to hunt again I hear my feelings go to lend I’m numb but that doesn’t mean I’m dumb I’m prone, but that doesn’t mean I’m alone I’ll spend my time with you today Not that you have a choice anyway I figure we’ll talk hate Not that you can with your mouth gate I guess you just hate yourself We’re less different in mental health Perhaps that’s just wishful thinking I see your rapid blinking I slowly feel a shift in the floor You keep glancing to the door But something went wrong There’s now calls for… I see the holes in the wall Representational call I wonder aloud why you have so much It seems unlikely for an organ touch Listen, I think you’re lashing out Against whom, I’m lost about Maybe you have a victim of your own You feed them scraps off the bone I guess you just hate yourself We’re less different in mental health Perhaps that’s just wishful thinking I see your rapid blinking I slowly feel a shift in the floor You keep glancing to the door But something went wrong There’s now calls for… I guess you just hate yourself We’re less different in mental health Perhaps that’s just wishful thinking I see your rapid blinking I slowly feel a shift in the floor You keep glancing to the door But something went wrong There’s now calls for…

You’ll never hurt him again I have now found your helpless victim You scream that it wasn’t you Your lies familiar, I see through Just like mine, you hurt to cover How can you call yourself another I’ll have him end your evil life Maybe then you’ll see the rolling dice You brought me a gift A toy to cause a new rift He’ll be my arms and bands Wash my sins with his hands You brought me a gift A toy to cause a new rift He’ll be my arms and bands Wash my sins with his hands I found someone to take care of You’ll never understand how to wait above Fuck your evil, darling fate I’ll teach to protect and hate Cursed be my bleeding heart; led me ‘round, new start I’ll help guide your hand, never again, forced understand You brought me a gift A toy to cause a new rift He’ll be my arms and bands Wash my sins with his hands You brought me a gift A toy to cause a new rift He’ll be my arms and bands Wash my sins with his hands You’ll never hurt him again I have now found your helpless victim You scream that it wasn’t you Your lies familiar, I see through You brought me a gift A toy to cause a new rift He’ll be my arms and bands Wash my sins with his hands You brought me a gift A toy to cause a new rift He’ll be my arms and bands Wash my sins with his hands

Focus your hate on what you hunt In others’ home, we never fund She was the one who hurt you Her body gone, I have the clue I’ve learned the father took the blame Hid my body for explosive tame I own him now, I have permission I guess you’ve never taught a lesson I will save you; I will brave you; I will tend you; I will end you Protection racket Forget and track it Ego-death, hack it I will save you; I will brave you; I will tend you; I will end you I made it out, totally free Your hunt will change, no catching me The tides have turned, completely sane With this victory, I’ve no more to gain I will save you; I will brave you; I will tend you; I will end you Protection racket Forget and track it Ego-death, hack it I will save you; I will brave you; I will tend you; I will end you I will save you; I will brave you; I will tend you; I will end you Protection racket Forget and track it Ego-death, hack it I will save you; I will brave you; I will tend you; I will end you

I’ve never been yours We’ve not been checking doors You used me for lies Cut my family ties You lied to me; will end you The line should be me The truth will not be seen There is no going back You never gave me slack The haunted recesses can never be found I know my mind’s still just flailing around But never again you Something you never tried to do I will only protect him I’ll show him how to sin I will save him; be free now I’ll bathe in the rain It will wash out the pain I can ignore your stain I will be the true slain The haunted recesses can never be found I know my mind’s still just flailing around You think you’re so clever for what you’ve done You killed me, but I eventually won You never learned the truth The haunted recesses can never be found I know my mind’s still just flailing around The haunted recesses can never be found I know my mind’s still just flailing around

I’ll train you to be honest Always focus on how you blessed I saved you, I’ll protect you I will help you, I’ll teach you Don’t cry or feel fear I will stand back to leer I can fly to devour We won’t stay past the hour Never forget to be aware We will make life to be fair I can give you your suture We will walk to the future You don’t always need a test You’ve succeeded so don’t best They allow solicitation with belts Fuck the system that doesn’t do help Breathe and free those in need Leave and follow my lead My captor was wrong, it worked out My father’s gone, my heart, no doubt He was put away, don’t want him back For endign abuse, we have a knack Blood from your faith, all your sins decay We are butterflies in the rain Never forget to be aware We will make life to be fair I can give you your suture We will walk to the future You don’t always need a test You’ve succeeded so don’t best They allow solicitation with belts Fuck the system that doesn’t do help I will run away to the light Your painful soul cannot fight I am free, and so is he Listen now to the song I sing Never forget to be aware We will make life to be fair I can give you your suture We will walk to the future You don’t always need a test You’ve succeeded so don’t best They allow solicitation with belts Fuck the system that doesn’t do help You don’t always need a test You’ve succeeded so don’t best They allow solicitation with belts Fuck the system that doesn’t do help
