She is the Ocean

The toils of this life's anxious fires
Its oiled well spreads flame across the land
to purify works every time
awash one's self and flood this charred ground
This is the age unweave the veil
Drown in the lights
I've seen the same that you despise
I feel the shame with what they sow branching out
What's in the nature of your saviour
what's in her eyes that you've seen
Confess these notions that feel serene
wont betray, her secrets she'll always conceal
what's in the ocean that can't be seen
beneath the waves that you'll never reveal
She'll cleanse my soul, to make me new
I am again, now sail myself ashore
...She is the ocean
The tide will rise
intoxicating me
the moon she's high
drown me now
Confess these notions that feel serene
wont betray, her secrets she'll always conceal
what's in the ocean that can't be seen
beneath the waves that you'll never reveal
We are the old, we are the new,
we are the same but stronger than before

What's in this life less is all I see led by lies
Lo and behold watching madness in wry
there's no real eyes, to wake and realise
Why strive?
For loss of life, space and time
This sink or swim society is upon us
Crushing you through, crushing you every time
wash it in lies smoke its disguise
Why strive?
For loss of life, space and time
This sink or swim society is upon us
Try your deed in tragedy
Those who would perceive drown in self-esteem
undiluted belief entitled to a dream
In their minds they'll define the storm
this chaos will come raining down

The Struggle is Ethereal

A picture of the night dark thoughts come flowing through
you can see figurations of light
The blind revelation I'd say you've improved your sight
you can feel the pyre alight
Inane, what's on your mind you'll see it if only once, shed it out
What's in this world that you cannot perceive
don't need reasons who won't believe
its always been but didn't foresee
once you've seen it you know it can be
Scry, through the frame of your mind escape this ignorance
trust yourself but instead you look into the skies
In this picture of the night beckons us to look through
with retaliation I try to beat them too
when you eyes align you'll wish you lost your sight
focus, expose what's in the lies you found
What's in this world that you cannot perceive
don't need reasons who won't believe
its always been but didn't foresee
once you've seen it you know it can be
Look into yourself and trust
Scry, through the frame of your mind escape this ignorance
trust yourself but instead you look into the skies
Look into the skies, the skies

Bind Us as One

Rise into your fires your dark caress incantations
into my weary mind and now my flesh comes crawling too
I was blind in my eyes withstand an age my roots in soil
why in my need its yet time
I see her face a thousand times
through pages of dust and twine
her dried leaf tears stain on the land
ingrained in my own hand
Why have you awoken me to walk hot coals across the land
Why have you forsaken me to join the legions of the damned
Its on frayed edges of what you've seen
but the lies keep feigning truth
Against the surges but your life keeps flowing through
I see her face a thousand times
through pages of worlds decline
her sun dried tears wash on the shores
absorbed in the sands of time
Why have you awoken me to walk hot coals across the land
Why have you forsaken me to join the legions of the damned
My eyes rescind this age that's been
I cannot see a place for me
I'll leave it all to oblivion
The ancient ways precede
a bygone amenity
it all becomes too much for me
Unburden me the time has come
scatter my ashes beneath this sun's glare
it bears witness to what I've become
the struggle subdues as I am undone
