A Thousand Stars Burst Open

no longer cradled
in gravity's memory
still in ??? lessness
spinning in torment ???
into the lightning white

 

Hair Shoes

how long can i contain
this wretched that no cure can tame
feel it coursing through me still
never knew that i could so ill

your wings are over me
if only i'd the strength
to try
to hide
watch me fall apart
but leave me with my heart, my heart, my heart

Babymaker

breaking through
into the waters heat
it won't be long
it's impossible to understand
there's no way of knowing
and no way out

take a breath
and tear it out (up?)
it's not enough
as the sky gets nearer
so does time
you'll never know
what you left behind
the only way is down


as the sky gets nearer
so does time
you'll never know
what you left behind
the only way is down

Featherframe

losing everything
the frame on which you hang
the constant (???)
the source of pain

losing everything
that she should bring


waking up the ???
held inside the


moving space is left to take your place
of colours against the grain
feel glass eyes
waking up the ???
held inside the


he says waking up the ???

Hunted

never alone
sticks fast to him
as shadows loom (?)
it tracks him everywhere he goes


surgeon's hands
the only way
to free him from
the one he begs will disappear


feels free in his sleep (???)
but there no such peace
waits for him to awake
laughs in his face
falls to his embrace


never alone
says to him
shadows long
shadows everywhere
false freedom is sleep (???)
but there's no such peace
waits for him to wake
laughs in his face
falls to him
false freedom is sleep (???)
but there no such peace
waits for him to awake
laughs in his face
falls to his embrace


false freedom is sleep (???)
but there's no such peace
waits for him to wake
laughs in his face
falls to him
false freedom is sleep (???)
but there no such peace
waits for him to awake
laughs in his face
falls to his embrace

Liquid

silver head
what makes you
sick inside
she stood by you
seasons hand
holds your dream
???
ways you can be
all meanings can frame
the pattern of your fins

?
swims and lights
??? truth
all other wise
golden things
twists and writhes
??? fish
caught in your eyes
all meanings can frame
the patterns of your fins

 

There Is No Day

come back to me
come back to me
there is no day
until you come
back to me

Neverending Night

i sit and wait
for birth and being
from day to night
back to beginning
i see
i see

but now
i look
you're disappearing
the ? that
falls is deafening
can't sleep
can't sleep

 

Ordeal

dreaming too long
wake up
hear ? ocean roaring ??? feeling
making fishes mouths inside your skin

now your senses
grow impatiently
feel the light is landing
on the surface of your being
like you're dragging an old dress along a floor

Shell

climb inside your mind and hide
throw the keys away
no one could ever know
the pain
you're going through
but i'll remember you
yes i'll remember
run and hide in your mind
run and hide don't

don't eat
don't move
you don't sleep
empty where you lie
gets farther every time
be still
you're just a shell
you do not exist the way you used to
run and hide in your mind
run and hide don't ???
learn to cry
learn to fly

Thread Of Light

hey percy
the beauty hidden in the pain
i smile and i bleed
body rain


between the scenes
you should hold someone
every piece is time
you've undone


pretty boy
everything lost and still a sound
of mother's arms and soul
can be found


between the scenes
you should hold someone


between the scenes
you should hold someone
every piece is time
you've undone

Throwing Back The Apple

don't fall too deep
don't try and sleep
beneath the ? that ?
it's coming through
taking over you
it's coming through
pouring into you

it hurts so much
but you're close enough
to step outside again
it's coming through
taking over you
it's coming through
pouring into you
it's coming through
taking over you
