HOMELESS
In this house where I grew up
With cozy chairs and broken cups
Memories piled up to the ceiling
Can they tell what I am feeling?
I know this house outside and in
But three birds fly upon my skin
Lay my head down in the darkness
Like so many nights before this
In this bed where I rest
I'm homeless
This house I know best
But I'm homeless
My hunger it grows
And it won't let me go
And it burns in my chest
I'm homeless
Heavy steps on hardwood floors
Into my room through broken doors
Try to leave this day behind me
But peace will never find me
In this bed where I rest
I'm homeless
This house I know best
But I'm homeless
My hunger it grows
And it won't let me go
And it burns in my chest
I'm homeless
I have a place I can call my own
That's where I go til the night is gone
I travel my mind and into my heart
Nobody knows when I go that far
In this bed where I rest
I'm homeless
This house I know best
But I'm homeless
My hunger it grows
And it won't let me go
And it burns in my chest
I'm homeless

BLACK LAKE
Our love was my womb but our bond has broken
MY SHIELD IS GONE, MY PROTECTION IS TAKEN
I am one wound, my pulsating body
SUFFERING BE
My heart is enormous lake, black with potion
I AM BLIND, DROWNING IN THIS OCEAN
MY SOUL TORN APART, MY SPIRIT IS BROKEN
Into the fabric of all he has woven
YOU FEAR MY LIMITLESS EMOTIONS
I am bored of your apocalyptic obsessions
DID I LOVE YOU TOO MUCH? DEVOTION BENT ME BROKEN
So I remained, destroyed the icon
I DID IT FOR LOVE, I HONOURED MY FEELINGS
You betrayed your own heart, corrupted that organ
FAMILY WAS ALWAYS OUR SACRED MUTUAL MISSION
Which you abandoned
You have nothing to give, your heart is hollow
I AM DROWNED IN SORROWS
NO HOPE IN SIGHT, OF EMBER
Reckoning eternal pain and horrors
I AM A GLOWING SHINING ROCKET
RETURNING HOME
AS I ENTER THE ATMOSPHERE
AS I ENTER THE ATMOSPHERE
I BURN LAYER BY LAYER
