The Riddle
There's static on the screen.
My meaning means nothing.
It's in everything I say.
My mouth is dripping lies,
Gathering fiends and flies.
It's in everything I say.
Inside I'm frozen cold, weak,
And seasons old.
It's in everything I feel.
I'm rigid as a stone;
A tower of skin and bone.
It's in everything I feel.
I'm a witch upon a pyre,
A martyr up for hire.
It's in everything I do.
I'm symbols in a tomb.
I'm orphaned, lost in Rome.
It's in everything I do.
I don't dare dream.
I just hope to seem like I'm
Happy
Now.
I don't dare dream.
Just hope to seem like I'm
Happy
Now.
It's reflections in pale water.
It's emotional slaughter.
It's in everything I think.
It's broken bottles in a bar.
It's me painting another scar.
It's in everything I think.
I crawl in underground.
In forgotten soil I drown.
It's in everything I am.
And these hands of mine I fear,
I fear, won't dig me out of here.
It's in everything I am.
I don't dare dream.
I just hope to seem like I'm
Happy
Now.
I don't dare dream.
Just hope to seem like I'm
Happy
Now.

Eurydice
Lowly love
Do you follow?
You left so suddenly
Left the light
So hollow.
The veil between
My world and yours
Wears thinnest
In the early morning
Right before life begins.
I'll be coming to get you
Blood spell
Seduce every dying thing
In hell.
Still coming to get you
Coming in when the god's asleep
When the veil is thin.
My lowly
Love
I won't turn around in doubt,
But please, please, please
Follow.
I'll let them know,
Let them, let you,
Let my lowly go.
My lonely love
Who knows?
I'll never know for sure
If it was
You at all.
I'll be coming to get you
Blood spell
Seduce every dying thing
In hell
Still coming to get you
Coming in when the god's asleep
When the veil is thin.

Right Here

Right Here
Show me your eyes dear
Tell me your price dear
Know that I'm lovely
Know that I'm right here
And know that I'm gone.
Know that I'm gone.
Know that I'm gone
Right here.
Tell me you love me
Need me and want me.
I know you can't stop
And I know you won't run
But know that you're wrong.
Know that you're wrong.
Know that you're wrong
To stay here.
Show me all your secrets.
And show me all your pain.
Show me all your mercy
Then show me to my grave.
I know it can't be perfect
I know you'll never change.
Still I'll lie breathless and wait
Right here.
You can carry me out now.
Don't let me fall down.
Your angels and roses.
My weakness; your sickness.
Do you know that you're all
Know that you're all
Know that you're all
I can feel
Right here
Right here
Right here
Right here

Damage Me

Damage Me
Strung up suffering your cure.
Prevention
Was never quite an option.
You say this will only hurt a little
And then a little more.
Do your worst love
Hand in cuff love
Hit and don't miss
Miss that I'm a masochist.
Kiss, choke, cut, bleed
Damage me.
Strung out on experiments
I'm patient
While your knife cuts up this tension.
You say this will only sting a little
And scar forever more.
Do your worst love
Hand in cuff love
Hit and don't miss
Miss that I'm a masochist.
Kiss, choke, cut, bleed
Damage me.
Kiss, choke, cut, bleed
Damage me.

The Room

The Room
The room fills up with water
In my dream.
The room fills up with water
As we kiss.
And all around us tears and storm
We could keep each other warm
And underneath the water
Learn to breathe.
It's open-eyed dreaming.
It's your open arms, stealing.
I found you
I found you
To drown
To undo
Because leaving
would be lying
I'll stay here
Unmoved
In our room.
The room fills up with water
Silver cold.
She's bleeding tears of rust
She's torn and old.
And I could now decease in bliss
or learn to give up all of this
And underneath the water
Unlock these eyelids.
It's open-eyed dreaming.
It's your open arms, stealing.
I found you
I found you
To drown
To undo
Because leaving
would be lying
I'll stay here
Unmoved
In our room.
The room is filled with water
When I wake.
But not one drop of water
Is on your face.
You turn to leave, I melt and freeze...
The room reminding me
While I
As I
Learn to breathe.
It's underneath the water.
It's underneath the water.
I found you
I found you
To drown
I had to.
Because leaving
Was lying
I stayed here
Unmoved
In our room.
