i’m still waiting
i’m still waiting here for you to say
that you regret something about those days
iron gates at dawn
the bruises that you left
well, they never left
i’m still waiting
and all these years of silence have kept you innocent
a dark room, a voice crying “it was never meant”
your hand felt like a knife
the bruises that you left
well, they never left
the bruises that you left
well, they never left
i’m still waiting

Crucifix
04:26
|
|||
i have known it all along
i am not my father’s son
the love you purged from my chest
it was never heaven-sent
the days go by
the wounds don’t heal
does that crucifix around your neck
make you feel like a good man?
and does that crucifix you flaunt so proudly
excuse everything you’ve done?
i don’t know where i am from
but i know i won’t become you
it was never clear to me
now i know i never knew you
don’t you tell me i don’t know pain
don’t you tell me it’s not the same
i was weeping on the stairs
that look in your eyes behind those iron gates
was your own father’s loveless glare
i was weeping on the stairs
and the jasmine tree watched over me
my mother wasn’t there
that crucifix around your neck
don’t you tell me i don’t know pain
does that crucifix around your neck
make you feel like a good man?

Sacred Echo
04:21
|
|||
running from my desperation
through the forest, emerald prison
my heart reaches for the darkness
save me from myself, i’ve fallen
i extended my arms toward that heaven of darkness
and watched the blood on their hands consume their days
like a shroud cast upon their fading hearts
and that heaven of darkness offered no reply
and in a single black motion drowned out the moonlight
like a shroud cast upon their fading hearts
the next part of the dream has died
and it’s haunting the sky
but with eyes shut and knives drawn
the night becomes mine
my heart reaches for the darkness
save me from myself, i’ve fallen
hollow bodies, searching eyes
sacred echoes killing lies
the starlight resigns
the night becomes mine

throw me in the fire tonight
carry me to heaven tonight
sacrifice my love tonight
watch me as my heart dies
into the fire, into the night
that vision of you is burning bright
winter declared i would never see you again
but when i close my eyes i see you glowing in my head
the image of you fades away
farther and fainter every day
vacant as the fading moon
your dreaming eyes were gone too soon
in flames i watched woven wings descend
now i wait for the night to entwine us again
you can carve out my heart but all you will see
is a heaven of darkness inside of me

remember blue glass, remember brooklyn
memories fading, but please don’t forget them
those days are gone now, but your love still lingers
i’ll never forget those trembling fingers
tonight it feels like everything is ending
tonight it feels like everything is ending
tonight i have realized nothing is permanent
nothing is permanent
the autumn fells its leaves
nothing is permanent
and i’ve nowhere left to be
nothing is permanent
everything dies
nothing is permanent
it’s just a matter of time
wicker swan, loaded gun
what have you become?
wicker swan, the damage is done
what have you become?
everyone says the glory is gone
one more step until you come undone
wicker swan, loaded gun
what have you become?

A Shadow Without You
03:50
|
|||
i was born in the town where your heart died
and i still hear your voice whisper in the night
every morning is a shadow without you
the despair is endless and there is no exit from this love
this aching love for you
haunts my dreams
eternally
and i die a little death with every sigh
as i dress my sins in white by the candlelight
at the end of the night there is only you
at the end of the night there is only you and this love
this aching love for you
haunts my dreams
eternally
show me how to love again
give it to me then take it away
a thousand hands reaching for my neck
squeezing tight and never letting go
this ending glows
my vacant heart
will never grow

I see your regrets in the lines in my face. The husbands you lost. The wages you deserved. The dark hours you always kept. The anxious and opaque nightmares that kept you awake through them.
Brooklyn. Lake Isabella. Verdugo City. You were looking for a home. You were looking for love.
The older I get, the more real you become-- in the colors I wear, the patterns I avoid. Your accent still resonating inside me so deeply. That city I’ve still never visited-- I can picture it in my head from every story you ever told.
Those fitful, nervous habits bled from your veins to mine. And I just can’t shake them.
They said I would never see you again. But I still see your face every time I close my eyes.

you drive all night, but you have nowhere left to go
the tears you cry will stay in 1964
sometimes we just aren’t born where we belong
wicker swan, my love, what have you become?
(hold on to the love you lost)
eighty-eight constellations
none of which have ever known
the feelings that you hide
within your hollow chest
(oh james)
(dream of all the paths you’ve crossed)
silver wishes gleaming beneath
the wings of a decade discarded
by rueful iron gates
and fading hearts
(oh james)
i feel it, too
and i’m here with you
fear not, my love
into the fire
into the night
your heaven awaits

Dream Ceremony

release my tortured soul
answer my cries
october ritual
blood sacrifice
under the jasmine tree
my body lies awake
heart set for the moon
there is no turning back
awaken these ancient fears
turn out the lights
burn the secrets in the fire
not a soul will know
silent
fallen
cursed
under the jasmine tree
my body lies awake
heart set for the moon
there is no turning back
release my tortured soul
answer my cries
october ritual
blood sacrifice

oh mother
i know you tried
i could feel you through the jasmine tree
your sagittarius eyes

the darker the night, the deeper the sea
the further you drift away from me
i drive past your house and the sorrow sinks in
i know i will never see you again
my dreams of you still come and go
my feelings of grief are hard to show
now i wait for the night
my vision of you is a ball of light
everything dies
it’s just a matter of time
the darker the night
the deeper the sea
your silent eyes stared up at me
the stories you told are just a memory
the jasmine tree lets go of her leaves
but the memories won’t let go of me
i waited for you at the top of the stairs
a wicker swan beyond compare
and now your love haunts my dreams
a heaven of darkness inside of me
the darker the night
the deeper the sea
everything dies
it’s just a matter of time
