The stairs that bind you have grown Reasons lost now break away In this room, stares from your eyes cut Halls breathing new life in Taking steps, walking backwards for more A face takes shape and loses its name Tongue in cheek apathy, trying to let go In trying to hide the cloth of the disguise For none else to see, a curtain, wrinkled, sways And stairs you can't escape

Threads 04:42
Looking after Your heavy heart Loveless eyes still dreaming Hope in bloom, steady persistence Finding place in lust Threads still hold to your whisper What would you do, if it all came back to you Arms collapsing, hands reach to the sky You were the only one to carry the torch Images which never fade A picture frame never vacant Whispers lurking, a child reborn Walking before the crawl of life A lost frame finds its home again Through your eyes

Ad Hominem 06:14
Innocence lost, fading indifference Meanings lost by actions, backed by broken words Words broken to land on deaf ears Silence ringing ever blinding, blinding to the edge of silence What are we, but our words, and actions Stripped to broken words and promises Time spreads thin, and clings to a feather Floating Falling back (Keep me close, and hold trust) Cycles leading back to you (When we used to dream, this life) And why we've held on Mistakes made from idle hands Ideals lost and fade away

Losing sight finds someone else Cold hands remind of your soft touch Spoiled eyes led this down Demons dressed as sheep Led by these cold hands And please, hold your breath while you wait for me Promises made lies, I can't keep leading the blind Not following what's found I'm sleeping with cold hands Hearts extend their final glance with love Hands out of time a lover's waltz ends
5.
Mirages 04:56
Wait, she said This life has meaning after us A sharp, calming nerve Digging a soul from the ground Embracing each step, home is where our bodies lie I'm still holding on But hiding the ghosts from moving on I'm not holding on But running away, from the things I have done (I'm still holding on, I'm not holding on) Will I find my body again, or has dust become my home?
