Innocents hurt the ones they love the most Violence. Your muzzle reshapes my soul I wanna let go Get carried away I oughta let go Innocence. I want it to take control Sediment buried beneath the snow You take up my shadow You carry the weight through the gallows Better days? It’s a battle to a bed behind my eyes Can you fake it? It’s a battlefield No time to apologize I’m behind the sunrise Can you take it? Will you find me with the fired weapon aimed up straight to heaven? I knew when I was dumb Life would blind me Pull me out from under I can’t watch you suffer any longer When you’re severed from the weather You know it can feel so cold It can feel like you’re a tether And all I need is a knife To cut so deep in love Will you find me with the tired weapon aimed up straight to heaven? I knew when I was young Light would find me Pull me out from under I will watch you suffer forever

I’m a mother I see poison seep right through you I know your father well He came straight from hell And you’ll follow suit You can trust in me, I look good on TV Isn’t it easy to control the taste of what we’ll tolerate Don’t you feel free? Can you breathe another breath for the ones who have been terribly harmed? Can you watch another death by the ones who won’t admit their wrong? Look us right in the face It’s our blood we’re waging now You just want us erased It’s our blood we’re waging now Burn down everything Light another fire when it makes no sense Cheapen everything Light another fire when it makes no sense

New Enemies 05:52
Gonna stare too hard to blink Bottled up in unused ink Stick a pin in my mind and twist it Love’s too blind to think twice, fear it Gonna take this heart of mine Bottle it up in turpentine Stick a shiv in my spine and split it Love’s too blind to be kind, hear it call You made my light wake anew There is no wrong that we can do I don’t know why my need is so bad Out of the night, I can see I feel the earth beginning Here is where I belong Hold my song through the cold Inside this storm where I was born a phantom I went away but here I stay held ransom Inside this storm where I’m reborn a madman I went away but here I stay your anthem So hold my hand through the cold

No South 03:35
How can we speed up the speech of sound? In here we dither We run, run, run ‘til we’re under the ground We knew right away You see me splinter like a memori I hear the whimper The drugs in the gutter with your god in a cage Have ye metal faith I have no south, I hit the ground You’re my northern wind that blows me down It must be hard, sickly starved To find a sliver of yourself in the dark How can we meet this mountain? Out here we wither The fight that fails in the winter We knew right away You see it shimmer like a fantasy I hear the city wail The cracks in the covers with your mind off the page I am wide awake Hey, yeah, yeah You’re my northern wind that blows me down It must be hard, sickly starved To find a sliver of yourself in the dark I wean, baby, what do I win? I bleed, baby, what do I believe? I have no south, I have no sound

Like a daisy, afraid and naked You lost your cause to remain what once was It’s a shame I’m right Everything we fear is a landmine I’m gonna shake this stolen form And watch it explode Like a plague, afraid and nameless You’ve lost your cause, oh my my my my

Idle Seas 04:49
Hold my favorite fallacy An illusion born to bury/banish me I can’t face the space between You and me Play it safe, safe from me Indecisive company How escapist can we be Spinning boats on idle seas Losing sight, shift in sleep Shaky hands and forcing teeth Recreation, make-believe Crippled legs on restless feet Playing games, winners cheat Masquerading as the free How creative can we be? Spinning boats on restless seas
7.
At Your Door 03:43
My love can’t handle one more shove Kids you better call the medic Because love has shriveled down to none No fun Hesitate and we’ll forget it And I wait at your door To open up like the ocean Like the deepest darkest coldest ocean
8.
Home Repair 03:43
It takes two hearts to make a pair But you and I are beyond repair Stay away, stay very far Who we were isn’t who we are My heart is a home where you don’t belong My light is my own that you’ll never know It takes two halves to make a whole ‘cause blood ain’t enough to heal this hole Stay away, stay very far Who we were isn’t who we are My heart is a home where you don’t belong My light is my own that you’ll never know Your hell is a hole where you live alone My heart is a home where I will be strong
