Wake up my brothers
The wicked hour arrives
Farewell my brothers
I'll greet you after the night
Hello my brothers
You come at me with your swords
Farewell my brother
You're killing me with your kiss

We're burning under city skies
We slumber here beneath the night
With forever in our sights
Straining to see the fading light
We'll dine with princes, paupers, and thieves
We'll drink with harlots, whores, and kings
'Cause in the end we're the least of these
For now we wait here in between
As we cross these dying seas
Here where even cynics dream
Straining to see the fading beams
We'll dine with princes, paupers, and thieves
We'll drink with harlots, whores, and kings
'Cause in the end we're the least of these

Father and son, bonded in blood
With a fire burning holes in their chests
Mother is gone, into the dark
When death came and laid her to rest
We'll find our way, walking down
By the road marked with blood on the ground
We'll find our way, marching through
These woods painted sadness and blue
We'll find our way to the sea
Where my lover is waiting for me
We'll find our way to their shores
Dream of bright lights behind their doors
A bullet and gun for father and son
The trigger weighs heavy like sin
Tattered and torn, threaded in love
Carrying on with no start and no end
We'll find our way, walking down
By the road marked with blood on the ground
We'll find our way, marching through
These woods painted sadness and blue
We'll find our way to the sea
Where my lover is waiting for me
We'll find our way to their shores
Dream of bright lights behind their doors

Gomer's Breed
05:03
|
|||
She trades her charm for cheaper things
She's got no time for diamond rings
She fakes her way through everything
Feigning a smile from ten to three
She lays with whoever pays
She loves whoever gives enough
They come and go as they please
She fakes her love for a fee
They burn her up like gasoline
She gives them everything they see
She lays with whoever pays
She loves whoever gives enough
We sons and daughters of Gomer's breed
We live like slaves though we are free
Our eyes are fine but we can't see
We keep believing fallacies
We lay with whoever pays
We love whoever gives enough

Annabel Lee
03:25
|

Many many years ago
In a kingdom by the sea
There lived a maiden there who you may know
Oh she was loved by me
In a kingdom by the sea
The wind blew out by night, her life it stole
And the angels envied me
In a kingdom by the sea
They stole my Annabel and left her cold
Our love was stronger still
Than even they could see
They could not cut the cord binding souls
So now the moon, it beams
Every night and brings me dreams
In a kingdom by the sea with sinners just like me
And now the moon, it shines
Illuminates the night
As mortals bodies die I see my bride
Oh lovely Annabel
I see that you are well
They've kept us far apart for far too long
Oh lovely Annabel
As far as I can tell
Our love is beautiful and far too strong

Death of Narcissus
03:43
|
|||
I fell in love too soon
Down by the drowning pool
I fell head first into myself, the fool
I fell in love too fast
Like chasing burning coals
I fell head first into myself, the fool
And now I see the sun
Shine through the water glass
This death can't be undone, I drown, I pass
Into the dark abyss
Of my reflection's eyes
This death can't be undone
I found the beauty of myself
I found the beauty of my soul
In lies, in death and compromise
I found the beauty of myself
I found the beauty of soul
In war, battle waged without a sword
Go now and learn from me
Shatter the mirrored lies
All that which shines and gleams will fade and die
So lay your treasures
By the eternal tree
Its light will never fade
Go find the beauty of yourself
Go find the beauty of your soul
In light, in the dawn behind the night
Go find the beauty of yourself
Go find the beauty of your soul
Be whole, take back the love they stole

The Carousel
05:17
|

We've been dancing around this fire for ages
Now your in my arms, despised and hated
You're crawling up this hill
The carousel descends
Welcome to your hell
Here is where it ends for you and those you love
Welcome to your hell
Nothing will be well for you and your sons
Welcome to your pain
End of love and grace for you and those you love
Welcome to your pain
These are darker days for you and your sons
You've been forgotten and forsaken
But I like you like this, weak and broken
You're crawling up this hill
The carousel descends
Welcome to your hell
Here is where it ends for you and those you love
Welcome to your hell
Nothing will be well for you and your sons
Welcome to your pain
End of love and grace for you and those you love
Welcome to your pain
These are darker days for you and your sons
What have you done?
You're breaking my grasp
What have you done?
You're breaking my grasp
What have you done?
There's light in the cracks

Atmosphere
04:12
|

You fell into a broken love
But we built these towers from the mud
And we feel something over us
And we feel it falling over us
It's in the atmosphere, we feel it everywhere
It's in the atmosphere, we feel it everywhere
It's in the atmosphere
It's in the atmosphere
They've made such a mess of us
But we built these castles from the dust
And we feel something over us
And we feel it falling over us
It's in the atmosphere, we feel it everywhere
It's in the atmosphere, we feel it everywhere
It's in the atmosphere
It's in the atmosphere

All is Sea
02:06

When skies are gone and all is sea
Your light is leading me
When moon is dark and stars are dreams
Your light is leading me
Sweet Annabel, I've felt your spell
Inebriated by your light
Sweet Annabel, now all is well
As we dance into the night

The Air is Clear
04:35
|

You're hanging by a thread
And you fall so well, you fall so well
You're walking like the dead
And you fall so well, you fall so well
Wake up, wake up
Your light has come
The dawn is here, your night is over
Lift up your eyes
Breathe in and rise
The air is clear, your night is over
Your eyes are burning bright
And you see so well, you see so well
Behold the breaking skies
And you see so well, you see so well
Wake up, wake up
Your light has come
The dawn is here, your night is over
Lift up your eyes
Breathe in and rise
The air is clear, your night is over
Wake up, wake up
Daughters and sons
Your hope is here, your night is over
Lift up your eyes
See death's demise
The end of fear, your night is over
Wake up and breathe it in
Wake up and breathe it in
The air is clear
Your night is over

Flooded

Can you hear the sound of love rushing us
Can you hear the sound of love flooding us
Can you hear the sound of love's covering
Hear it loud
This is you
Can you hear the sound of love breaking in
Can you hear the sound of love crashing in
Can you hear the sound of love resonate
Hear it loud
This is you
And the whole world sings along
'Cause the whole world feels the flood
Can you feel the flood
Do you feel the rush
Can you feel the love
Feel it now
