The Rope

Conceal
what I am
who I’m trying to be
for the sake of me
Cause I swallow my voice
as I shorten the rope
for the sake of me
The knot in my throat is a part of me
defining my words
I wish you could see
it’s a part of me
I wish you could see
it’s a part of me
what if you’re wrong and the chains can’t contain
the creature inside and storm it will bring
can’t lose grip
mouth to the tail
Focus on running, can barely walk
I try to forget what structure looks like
Can’t let go
Won’t let go
can’t u see
it’s a part of me
Fear of the ocean, the water is weak
It’s darkness that haunts you for every mistake
can’t u see
it’s a part of me
pick me up
drag me down
crawl inside the bane of my broken soul
close your eyes
watch me drown
ignorance is bliss on the other side
Spit out the venom, cut out your lungs
there’s no other way
part of me
part of me
the knot in my throat is a part of me
leave me be
Fear of the ocean, the water is weak
It’s darkness that haunts you for every mistake
fear of the ocean in me
what is the feeling that hurts you the most?
spit out the venom that poisons your soul
what if you’re wrong and the chains can’t contain
the creatures inside and storm it will bring
can’t lose grip
mouth to the tail
Focus on running, I can barely walk
I try to forget what structure looks like
can’t u see
it’s a part of me
part of me
restraining me
cut me out, slay my name
Every breath the blade cuts deeper
and every word makes the noise sound weaker
mute screams won’t be heard
Cut me out
Failure
Slay my name

Wasting faces

How do we cope with this
constant destruction
When bridges keep burning and
roads disappear
No-one is able to
savor the moment
Day after day
I am wasting away
stuck in a rhythm of
manic depression
when highs are just lows
and the feeling decays
I walk alone
in the void of existence
voices on my shoulders
screaming, what they’ve seen
mind and memory
No-one is able to
savor the moment
Day after day
I am wasting away
Waste
cut my ears off
Fade
hold on to my beast of prey
still I’m wasting away
Try to reach out
through the whispers of ravens
show me the values
you’ll put on your grave
What am I supposed to feel?
I can’t tell what’s fake or real
All day long I wonder why
How the fuck do I survive?
All these nights are such a bore
my mind is rotten to the core
Wasting faces, wasting me
Faded social amputee
I’m fucking sick, don’t look at me
All we ever did was waste away

Centipede

I - I am the one who knows
I - I’ve spent my days in fear before
I - I’ve spent my fears in tears before
All along
Years of fears have kept me safe from finding out what I can be
And kept my steps in line of thoughts not knowing I am centipede
Undergo
All you know
Lost my balance when trying to cope
Stuck in the eye
Back on my feet, Centipede
I’ve got no sorrow for the blood I bleed
blood that feeds my inner needs
and helps me get back on my feet
slipping away
preach your childhood fallacy
Step into the fire of earthly desire
Find – find your way
And feast on my flesh, the corpse of a liar
I am what I am,
the son – the son of my father
Fear
All I can see
All I can be
Tearing me down
Down to my knees
Undergo
All you know
Lost my balance when trying to cope
Stuck in the eye
I have become, I have become Centipede
I am the kin of those who tried the face the fate of men
The child that’s born in sight of death, a path of fear
I got knocked down, they broke my legs to keep me here
my bones are real, unlike your dreams
Back on my feet, Back on my feet
become Centipede
self-proclaimed
no-mans land
close my eyes and crave to see
this world change in front of me
are we sick, about to break?
are we self destructing snakes?
Drink the cure and face your fear
in the end rats persevere
On my feet
Centipede
face
your
fate
face
your
hate
your inner hate
tired
we’ll face the gauntlet

Consume me

my precious insolence
- locust – pestering - machine
you’ve got me on my knees
- violence - suffering – brutality
chaos in clarity
- silence – sheltering - the truth
- silence – savagely – consuming me
the love, the hate
i push myself aside
Every day the same
Every day is worse
don’t tell me i’ll suffocate
the indifference in your eyes is the only sense I recognize
Nerve exhaustion
What’s the point?
I’m on the edge of falling through, my fingers can’t hold on.
anxiety
consuming me
drape myself in misery
fantasy and self deception
chains - strap me to the wall
fade
chains - strap me to the wall
cut me off before final judgment day
you better stay inside
your bitter culprit mind
you fucking parasite
-
Gradually
my capability
of finding strength
in solace is
diminishing
I can’t prevail
I can’t sustain
you better stay away
you parasite
Nerve exhaustion
What’s the point?
I’m on the edge of falling through, my fingers can’t hold on.
We ran for cover to discover there was no place to go
And searched for fortune in this puddle that we used to – we used to call home
You’ll find me crawling in the shade
You’ll find me searching for a new embrace
my mind is filling with shades of regret
I'm on the edge
consume me

If I die in front of you
Can you take me, will you take me
If I die before we fall
Take me home
left this place when I was young and filled with hopes and dreams
I feared the night above the day but still it sets me free
The structure in rapture, the voice inside your breath
These feelings are inhuman, as it’s human to fear death
And I kept - seeking the line, the constitution of time
I found nothing but regret and silent thoughts inside my head
too late for me?
are we close to our defeat?
shaking the hands of he who claims - my fathers lands?
further
than we ever were, we’ll ever be,
far away from home
father
you feed me, you bleed me
you can’t reach me no more
father
you feed me, you bleed me
Take me home, rest my soul
Take me home
