The Fire
Through the cracks in the wall i see you
Crouching trying to breathe in
And all your heart is wasted on someone's destiny
what do you suffer for, the weight is on the fire
To dampen down the heat of all your ties
All i can give you is advice and fear
Caught in the headlights you stare back
Want to ride with my past
You look through the looking glass
The past is there in some light
To find a way to re- live destiny
As i see through the cracks the tidal wave will come back
To haunt you and hunt you down

Knives Sharpen
Knives sharpen
They're enamoured by his words
A frozen stare to me
I'll be the one to entertain your thoughts
Beneath the arches grow a starwort tomb
It would be nice to see you face to face
As i crawl out of this world
The butterfly of dreams is there
Is writing silence to you
A distant wailing
I can't see
Eyes are closed to die, devolve

Battlefield
The place i want to be is closer
And the cold light shines on that place i want to go
On the battlefield you go all at the time
And it’s colder than your heart as it opens sombre
There’s a place you want to go want to try

Night Vision
I’ve seen the figure in the darkest space
Look for confirmation around the ring of his face
It’s irrational i need assurance
Must of been asleep
I knew about nightmares and all the rest you fear
A shock no air, leapt to his feet
Dare you miss-inform him, watching you asleep
There's a buildup of clouds, there you will find out
The shelter is over here and down
Watch him over there, under the trees
Lightning strikes him, forced to his feet

Against the wild
He was sent today
Incessant trial and fragrant moments of art and loathing
Annoyed without the bright lights
Rested forth , dreams defined in love
Line of grace i’d like to know
Summoned here, rested fine
He’ll slow down your woes and empty lives
The wasted sky comes alive
Show me another place
Where actions awaits - savage against the wildness
Wrecking a primal phase
It’s brutal he replied
crooked answer
Now brawl against the winds of time

Balanced
Wished that all he could see balanced perfectly
And i have had all i can take i’m against the wall
Shifting of views and gaze to find a lions den
Open to me - nauseating
Build it up, in time change your mind
Carry the weight and find it doesn't teach you right
It doesn't make a difference if you were to talk
unwind are you comfortable there resting
It will be your time
Suddenly you will find he's serious

Our Time
It’s upside down the way you think
The whole days clearer to your eyes
Don’t tear the mind is blank in the sun’s glare
Calls in silence
Calls in the night and takes you by surprise
The highway you chose defines you and past
I know It’s worse than anything i feel - i might want to be
Can’t make it better can’t make it right
But i’ll try in time
Remember everyday our time
He idolised you
Darker is this daze, i plead with you everyday

Workhouse
Lead us with peace
Be on your guard
And you can see
Century of life pain
There's stillness and dare i’ll say
I’ve the lost the innocence this day
Bear along with merry strides
Fail to breath but dance the night away
The shade death there strange
Effaced i’m lost
But my bones done tire
Dont try don’t cry my bones don’t tire

Stranded
Extol the base, derive a cautionary life
Is bathed in light of gold
The cracks will show you go to go
I’ll be there again, you'll be stranded there
Lead us to our death you'll be surrounded
Lead us to the day
Where we are happy where we stay
I'll be there again you'll be stranded here
