Her Fire 05:34
She shivered in the still day Daylight cold grey She shivers She stares Staring at the stagnant waters Cloudy, dank caving in Dark, shrouded mirroring Mirror pools Shadow dark cloudy eyes Staring in shallow waters She knows, Her Fire She knows, it’s coming She hears the ticking time clock She knows the rhythm rocking Rhythm Swaying Rhythm timing She hears them She hears them call again Time to let Towers fall within She, she says to Let it burn Fierce sparkling Fantastic fires She knows, Her Fire She knows, it’s coming She feels the need to burn It all down Let them all settle in The things of no control Let it all burn within The things you must let go

I see your face now Trying to keep face, how? But its just slipping away And I'm slipping away Away from you Away from you Tears are falling Now you're falling down Who's crying now? We used to laugh, how We used to make up, Our perfect worlds, Our perfect worlds, But it's just slipping away And I'm just slipping away Away from you Away from you

Addict 04:20
Frightful Now it’s getting nightfall And you’re feeling doubtful Now you’ve got a heartful And you’re feeling fitful Stuffing on your mouthful Now you’re walking careful Afraid that you’ll be seen Come on Now you’ve got you’re hard on Neurotic masturbation Sad and sorry self pawn In your own destruction No one left to call on Now too scared to move on Lost all that you have been Falling towards the floor Night lifts to dawn And if you just keep on just say goodnight the curtains drawn Nothing is left to find, inside But the shell you called yourself Just say goodbye

I’ve given it time, I’ve given you me I give you my thoughts, my everything I show you the world In pictures and sounds I’ve given you the taste of myself I’ve given it time, I’ve given you me I give you my eyes, my ears, my skin I build you a world We can discover and play I paint you a sky to make your stars sparkle in Nobody’s home Such vacancy A soulless stare I cannot reach Nobody’s home I’m dipping in An empty pool I cannot swim Nobody’s home Nothing to see Searched everywhere That I can think Nobody’s home Such vacancy A soulless stare I cannot reach I’ve given it time, I’ve given you me I give you my dreams, my flaws, my sins I’ve played all the games, to get you to see I’ve pushed all the places a button can be I’ve given it time, I’ve given you me I give you my friends, my anything I show you the paths that you can create I give you a key, to your own place Nobody’s home

Choke 03:32
We see you hiding in the dark We see your lying blackened heart We see right through the games you play We watch you waste it all away I curse you fall and fall apart I curse you know your blackened heart I curse you fall and fall apart I curse you feel your blackened heart Mirror Mirror you see…. you'll see Choke on the Heart Choke on the part Choke on the bone stuck in your throat Your killing joke Your piece of pie Such cherry lies And masquerades We see you acting so sincere We see your mind games played with fear We see you spreading lies like seeds We see your virus spread like weeds

My Machine 05:26
Gears are grinding Gears are shifting Hands are winding Click Clock Tick Tock Digital dialing Levers lift me Levers levitating Spark plugs sparking Sparks now firing Hydraulic pressure Building inside Silicone slipping Hyper threading Hyper bonding Units combine Pistons firing Synaptic play Cylinder spins Synaptic charging Dynamic flux Synaptic discharge Codes are crashing Codes are breaking Codes cracked now Jacking in Unauthorized access Tap into the MetaVerse Infinite avatar Wetware interface Boiling circuts B.I.T.M.A.P.D.I.S.E.A.S.E. High rez revelation Innervate Energize Binary verses Miracle virus Wired Chuck metal Obsolete Motherboard Mainframe Time to jack in again Aeon assemblage Aeon flux The flies in the eyes The prey is caught Fractal pie (3.14) Synaptic sparks Now self aware

Not so much fun The way it pulls upon my heart I’d like to scream From the way my life has torn apart I wouldn’t say This was the way that I had dreamed I just don’t care for the feel of ripping at the seams And so I fall with the pull of it all And so I fall from the pull of the call Such a twist of fate The way the clouds are cast across skies The way the strings are played upon my heart The way it tears me up My heart is bled and raw The way I die inside The way I’d love to hide And so I fall with the pull of it all And so I fall from the pull of the call Such a twist of fate The way the clouds are cast across skies The way the strings are played upon my heart The way I can’t control Such twist of fate The things I just can’t know It’s the twist of fate The way I just don’t know Where I even want to go The way I just can’t see Where I even want to be And so I fall with the pull of it all And so I fall from the pull of the call

Tread Softly 04:16
For you (I am making our choice) Of what must be, for me To let me go To let me free A new path is calling My truth I must walk So I promise you (With our love upon my heart) I will Tread softly Walk softly

Black Ocean 05:26
Too beautiful and frail for this world Some flowers are not meant to be taken And fall away Falling into the breeze Carried by the wind into the Black Ocean This Dream pulls so strong A slumber of promise, peace and quiet The passage calls from the deep Black Ocean I know you blossom within me Blossom within me Please know I swim those tides for you I’ll swim for you I’ll swim for you I swim these tides for you And one day, I’ll bring you through My Black Ocean My Black Ocean Am I dreaming? Is she breathing? The empty feeling Where are you tonight? I wish to show you Who I’ve grown into Wish you could see me now You would be so proud

I hold your heart Within a lifetime All the dreams That we share I free your heart At the same time No binds or bars Hold us here Unconditional I bear my heart Ascend my Soul I stretch my arms And I let go Transparent Unconditional I let you see me Everything All I am I shed my skin And stand in the Sun In love with life And so aware We’re breaking all the rules Embracing Love From a place of Truth

Trapeze 04:53
I am balancing upon a floating ropewalk Placing my footsteps As I close my eyes Feel my steps My view I, perceive A myriad space Reflecting place Not stuck in time And yet in forms of movements And yet in forms I’m finding I wanted only in dreams (pulling inside / dancing outside) The lights reflect to me From upon the windowpanes I dream in galaxies And move amongst the stars Embraced by the night The sky reflects to me I dream in galaxies And dance amongst the stars Upon the coiled rope I walk I see where my steps are chosen In this sacred moment In this space between I breathe, I love Perceptions of Where I am and what I be Living in This Mortal Coil Living in This Mortal dream

Guillotine 04:11
How can I find it in my heart this time to let you in? Two many faces and closed doors, no wonder you pretend All the things, that you said to me, your words they cut so deep I’m about to lose my head, you’re a guillotine babe Can I forgive and heal these wounds, can I forget, can I undo Another lie, another bruise How could you leave me black and blue The blade it hurts red, your words cut me in two I feel the cold edge You’re a guillotine You’re a guillotine You’re a guillotine The blade it hurts red, your words cut me in two I feel the cold edge your words cut me in two
