Ravine 04:21
Deep into the… Deep into the ravine I was lying, broken and weak Surrounded by… Surrounded by steep cliffs Deep into the… Deep into the ravine For who knows how long The morning sun... The morning sun...overhead River breeze behind, Watch the boat drift away Just a sound, calling me Horns in the wind Boat is drifting away Facing away from me Ref: Come here my child, You’re here so early Your shame owns you now I can clearly see Come here and say, you belong to me Come here my child Beaten, can’t feel my legs Trying to shout, call the ferryman Is this a place I'll call home For how many miles do I have to walk? It’s too loud, It’s too hot Misty air before me River breeze behind, Watch the boat drift away Just a sound, calling me Ref: Come here my child You’re here so early Your shame owns you now I can clearly see Come here and say, you belong to me Come here my child Calling me

Obsidian 05:03
Get out It seems company I’ve found Reaching me, distant mouth Movement of silhouettes Are telling me something Deafening the sound of cries I have to take steps too To see this young man Cause I hope he holds the answer To this yellow brick road Ref: Now there is no edge No rope to hold on to I’m all around you You are the mass You are the voices too Through the misty air Listening to his minacious laughter I’m ending all of this The sharpest stone knife i could find, I took With a single short move I’m ending all of this, look Opening my neck To all this misery Before you my friend Revealing my flesh to this cursed land Ending all of this Ref: Now there is no edge No rope to hold on to I’m all around you You are the mass You are the voices too The rope let you down Making yourself drown I am the martyr too I came to see what you got now in the end Do you know you are on my land? Get out, get out, i’ll tear your soul apart Ref: Now there is no edge No rope to hold on to You’re all around me I am the waste But I am the martyr too You know you are on my land? you are on my land The rope let me down Making myself drown I am the killer too

Her 04:32
Elements vibrating, surrounding me Mother will carry me home Elements compressing, getting out Mother is calling me, i can barely shout She will settle all of this down Ref: My eyes are in the outside world Moment of a birth, gently curled With a puzzled frown Is this just a dream? Marching utter lunacy of the first beam Elements are burning too fast You can judge me now Can’t decide if it’s wrong or if it’s right Gonna wear out my whole world You can see it, like a worthless mold But i’ve never cracked a smile Ref: My eyes are in the outside world Moment of a birth, gently curled With a puzzled frown Is this just a dream? Marching utter lunacy of my second beam Element’s reached a peak At this spot, but i can’t stop Elements are burned Wasted my last chance for a redemption Deep in my veins, Depleting my energy Pushing all of you away It must be a dream But i see my last beam Getting out of me

Tightrope 05:36
Collecting the last sherds on the ground End of the last round Tremor of thoughts with constant sound Alone in this room with a pocket of tears Alone as a roaming dwarf Alone in the shining sky Ref: Familiar dream Goes with my last beam Fractured neck tells the same Your eyes overwhelmed by this sight And grasping for air No one else to blame End of the last round End it all on the last round I’ve killed all of these murmuring voices On the edge of the sill, in the gap of my kill Remaining tight rope of false hope Lingering and shouting on me I’m standing still on my edge of the cliff I’ll make it brief, make it brief, make it brief...Quivering and... I’ll make it brief Collected all the sherds of the ground This was my last round Alone as the roaming dwarf In the darkened sky Familiar dream.. Goes with my last beam... Ref: Familiar dream Goes with my last beam Fractured neck tells the same Your eyes overwhelmed by this sight And grasping for air But there’s no one else to blame

Look at him poor and ashamed, Look at his hands, shivering He’s holding a candle, It’s burning from its both ends As a shadow creeps against him, For him, with him Somebody should look for him, At him, with him Ref: Waiting for a hand to hold He’s just like you and me Somebody should look for him Don’t you think He’s alive as i’ve never wanted him to see Dead as my will to breath, while the mirror speaks He's holding a candle It’s burning from its both ends As a shadow creeps against him, For him, with him Somebody should look for him, At him, with him Ref: Waiting for a hand to hold He’s just like you and me Somebody should look for him Don’t you think Don’t you think It’s an ugly dream In a far away distance My last beam As a shadow creeps against him, For him, with him Somebody should look for him, At him, with him Waiting for a hand to hold He’s just like you and me Somebody should look for him Don’t you think Don’t you think It’s an ugly dream In a far away distance My last beam Don’t you think
