I`m sorry, this will hurt me far more than it will hurt you In a darkend room fully torn apart Infront of me the one who stole my heart Motionless, bound and tied Her sweat reeks of fear The sight alone could wish you blind One last touch One last time One last caress One last time Instruments of pain gleaming in my sight Tugging at the sense of wrong I will perpetrate tonight The first incision wrenches at my soul As the world turns red, i finally let go An artist with his tools of trade Gazing back at what is left in my wake All beauty lost, destroyed Down to every instance left of joy No sign of affection, love or lust Only thing remains is a feeling of disgust What my hands What my hands wrought i can never take away I've scarred I've scarred my sight, I've scarred my fucking mind What my hands I've scarred my sight, I've scarred my fucking mind There is blood There is blood on my hands... The blood is mine

Nightfall 14:04
As the light fades from my world I... I am left behind Others burn so bright As time passes by Shadows give me peace I will never shine Take whatever's left I took my... I took my eyes In absent light left to die Tempered by shadows i survive A single spark out of empty eyes Empty eyes...

Tis pain the clarity of ruin And a soul that is laid to waste A march of things forever broken Laid bare between shards of faith Broken beings recognise its like Drawn to them like moths to light What blocks the gears, the geares from turning What lies in sparks, what gathers dust (broken) broken... To heal what once was broken To sprint the gauntlet of its inner workings To pick oneself apart To free the head and heal the heart Far few do breach this end of state Gaze upon its law of faith Condemned by those who fear its sight Who would pray for dusk in the dead of night I hold no stake here I will be washed away I hold no stake here A heretic does not pray So strike the light from my eyes It is all of you who dim Bound by shackles of faithful`s light Praying for dusk in the dead of night

For a state of flow is to what i strive Fully engaged in life unbound, never blind Automata, nothing is as simple as a machine Never brought down by delusions of a living dream Nursery rhymes, life worth losing, the best of times An open heart, rose tinted eyes, comfort in caress Lies in life make our world shine Flooding every sense, drowning us alive Drowning us alive Cracks and fissures form ripples in the flow of time Illusions do fall, clarity will you still be mine So much warmer is the light The neural trappings of the lost internal sight Marinated in a chemical cocktail burning bright How or why should i resist Live in shadows cease to exist What is care but dimming light What is love but rose tinted sight What is truth but shade against the sun Am i a ghost in the machine, am i whole, am i one Careless in a world of dimming light Heartless in a place far from sight Boundless by others, a wayward soul Regardless of things i cannot control Living in the sun still not remaining blind As cities burn, souls ashen away in time Somewhere somehow happiness i`ll find Heartless, careless
