It begins within and without
The grandest experience is love
It's love there can be no doubt

The first time it happens you fall
Your heart wants to burst from it's skin
The grandest experience is love

The air starts feeling really thin
As the breaths get harder to take
Your heart wants to burst from it's skin

You start wondering if this could be fake
If reality could burst back in
As the breaths get harder to take

Patience is your begetting sin
It begins within and without
If reality could burst back in
It's love there can be no doubt

Fall

We all inevitably fall.
What matters is how high we crawl,
The time we take to do it in.
Can we, mankind, pay off our sin?
Or are we bound to fall for years?
Pull up by your bootstraps my dears,
Chin up off your knees, feel cheer!
There is more than one way to win.
Perhaps we just prepare to fall.

Sin Eater

I miss the feel of your skin
My sin is yours to steal
Unreal how this became home
Atoning has never been easy
Dizzy I fall into your arms
You disarm my defenses so well
Quell this feeling inside me

A Vision in Blue

A rhapsody in cerulean
A prayer to sapphire skies
The perfect shade of everything
A universe in your eyes
The gravity drags me under
Beckoning pulls me in
Reading my darkest fears
Knowing my every sin
I couldn't escape if I wanted
Trapped in a vision in blue
Drowning in ultramarine
All caught up in you

Dagger's Edge

Dagger’s Edge

Sometimes my feet get bloody

My balance is not quite level

But the ground below is muddy

I’d end up completely disheveled

It’s harder then walking on eggshells

At least, on that you know the score

For eggshells crush rather easy

They are simply the spoils of war

But balancing on the dagger’s edge

Playing both sides at once

You never know which bet to hedge

Relying on luck and impudence

There’s always a side to favor

Someone who wants to win

Never taking time to savor

Only looking for the next sin

The only winners are failures

The only triumph is loss

Truth is no longer my savior

To bear this is my cross

Accept

There’s a whore in all of us

There’s a sin in him

We are all made up of lust

But we rarely go out on a limb

We take care to guard the exits

We dance to protocol’s whim

Sometimes someone comes along

That says to hell with prim

It’s not even good to be proper

‘Cause those people never win

You have to fight dirty to prosper

We lived in world rotting in sin

We have to stop rejecting our nature

Learn to accept where we’ve been

Accepting ourselves for who we are

Is the greatest way we can win

Namaste

I draw your light into me

And use it to dispel my shadows

Reflect it back into the world I see

Its brilliance shines onto everything

There is nowhere the darkness can hide

What poor soul do I offer you in exchange?

So dingy and full of darkness

Even your evanescence shines

Your purity and clarity

Dispel my demons and sins

The weak thread of truth unravels
