The Storm

You fell asleep
And drifted into a coffin
With an alarm of sirens
You were exhumed
You always wore the stench of death
But I thought it was perfume
Shadow monsters
Voyeur ghouls
The siren songs of slaughter
Taunting from the walls
You tore the skin from your back
I saw your wings peaking through
So I bandaged them up
To keep the skies away from you
Did you see the light?
Or were you only dreaming?
Did I save you from bliss
To return to the slaughter?
Was this just a selfish attempt
To keep you underwater?
I still see an ache in your eyes
When you look to the sky
You look so pretty caged up
Where you’re not allowed to die

Speak please
Say something
Anything
Don’t leave me behind
Get up, getup, get up
Just wake up
Get up
I gave you a push
I gave you a shove
I pried your eyes open
No response
I told you I’d call the cops
You didn’t seem to mind
Holding onto ecstasy
With oxy and wine
Ambulances show up
much faster than police
Ambulances show up
Much faster than police

Holding On and Screaming
01:09
|

Eye sockets screaming
Blanket of pain
Vultures in my stomach
Cement in my veins
All I could do was scream
The air was ignited
My heroes had gone
Fiction is fucking worthless

It’s been 6 months since you opened your eyes
And I still fear you’re dead every night
Behind every door
Each time you’re alone
I fear the worst
Will this I outgrow
Or will I just have to live with it?

Arm in arm, we carry through
Armaments to the rescue
Broken glass rains down upon us
Marking our trail with breadcrumbs of blood
With each new bandage comes
Another designer wound
If the bones in your back should collapse
I’ll carry you on through the woods
Marking our trails with breadcrumbs of blood
Your pain has brought me purpose
But your friendship gave me life
We’ll never get out of the woods
And that’s fine
