Sullen Ghost

How could you claim to love someone?
How Could You?
How could you claim to love someone
You're not willing to hear...
Dear Presumptuous Foreign Host
Over Looked and Silenced
A Sullen Ghost
How could you be so unwilling to hear?
Even the Deaf, Dumb, and Blind
know I'm here
Am I getting Louder?
Am I Getting Through?
Am I getting Louder?
A Reluctant Sigh
From a Lonely Ghost
Though you love my faults and Failures
It's not a collection to boast
How Could you be so unwilling to hear?
I wake the earth
Shake the Ground
Until You Hear
Perhaps it's time to find the world in which
i'm accused of spending my fucking time in
This satisfaction I wouldn't give
Those are not my words
they're your projected insecurities
those are not my dreams
How could you claim to love someone
Next To This Integer of None
Should You claim to love someone?
You aren't willing to hear...
I'll wake the earth and shake the ground
until you have forgotten who I am
Then the empty space can replace
what's expected of me...
Am I Getting Louder?

Innerupted Me
06:26
|
|||
I'm sorry my absence would interrupt your life
I've become eternally disrupted as I erupt internally
if the empathy you had for me
wasn't knotted up in selfishness
Anything you've done for me
was not enough...
You wouldn't need to move an inch
to have walked a mile in my shoes
stoke the flames of selflessness
This is when you would
see this more clearly
if and only then
I'm not interrupting life
so I can disrupt yours
This life has innerupted me
if the empathy you had for me
wasn't knotted up in selfishness
if the empathy you had for me
wasn't knotted up in selfishness
Anything you've done for me
was not enough...
You wouldn't need to move an inch
to have walked a mile in my shoes
stoke the flames of selflessness
This is when you would
see this more clearly
if and only then
I'm not interrupting life
so I can disrupt yours
This life has innerupted me
Meet the new existentially corrupted me
This life has innerupted me
You wouldn't need to...
You wouldn't need to move an inch
to have walked a mile in my shoes
and stoke the flames of selflessness
This is when you would
see this more clearly
if and only then would you forgive me
I'm not giving up this life because it would disrupt yours
Life has interrupted me

A Wish Upon 'Oh Well'
07:04
|

This Silo
In Your Toxic Silo
Malevolence
Is like a disease
Through The
Depraved and Corrupted
Through The
Insane and Disruptive
Shine the light to bring the shame
with an intentional deprivation
It's Depraved, Corrupted
In your toxic Silo
In your toxic silo
caught in a web
locked in a cellar
left for dead
in your toxic
in your toxic
in your toxic
In your toxic silo
I wished upon 'Oh Well'
For Bliss
Not a Decent to Hell
Scattered All Around Me
Puzzle Pieces From The Fall
On Her Back Staring Up at the Halo
Deep within your toxic silo
isolated and forgotten
convinced that
convinced that she's...
I wished upon
'Oh Well' For Bliss
Not a Decent to Hell
Scattered All Around Me
Puzzle Pieces From The Fall
I wished upon
'Oh Well' For Bliss
Not a descent to Hell
Scattered All Around Me
Puzzle Pieces From The Fall
Puzzle Pieces, Puzzled Pieces
From the Fall
Each and Every Drip
Each tick of the clock
Each and every Drip...
Each tick of the clock
Will collect until they drop
Cascading toward the fall
memories scattered like
puzzle pieces
puzzled pieces
puzzle pieces from the fall
Lost and broken
Malevolence begets my forgetfulness
Malevolence begets my forgetfulness
Malevolence begets my forgetfulness
Malevolence be g e t s m y f o r g e t f u l n e s s

Puzzled In Pieces
06:15
|

I see you've placed all your little...
Placed all your little pawns in my way
Puzzled in Pieces
Here we sit playing our game
I see you've placed all your little pawns in my way
Appearing Lost
Puzzled in Pieces
Faceless degenerate
in a black mirror
Here we sit playing our game
I see you've placed all your little pawns in my way
In my way
Appearing Lost
Puzzled in Pieces
Reflections Resonate
Infections Deteriorate
I'm puzzled in pieces
puzzled in pieces
Appearing Lost
Puzzled in Pieces
Face this Degenerate
Faceless Degenerate
Face this Degenerate
Faceless
Degenerate
in a black mirror
Face This Degenerate
Reflections Resonate
Face This
Degenerate
In a Black Mirror
Faceless Degenerate
Infections Deteriorate
Appearing Lost
Puzzled in Pieces

The Addition of Infinity
04:39
|
|||
Purgatory is just another place to be
impotent in its monotony
Without the Addition of Infinity
Without the Addition of Infinity
A journey through a ticking clock
barely time to breath
between each tick
between each tock
Much like hell
Much like Fire
Much like hell
There is no potency
Until Temporary
Becomes indefinitely
Deep within a frozen clock
might as well be lost
lost in space between
each tick and tock
might as well be lost in space
Between
might as well be lost
Between
Might as well be lost in space
Much like Hell
There is no potency
Until Temporary becomes indefinitely
Deep within a frozen clock
might as well be lost in space
lost in space between
each tick and tock
Might as well be lost.

Question
06:08
|
|||
I used to think about it
When it was on my fingertips
It's not worth the road
I used to dream about it
When it was on the tip of my tongue
it's not worth the road
Just let it go
Just let it go
Just let it go
If you're wondering how I am
If there's a Question in your mind
Just let it go
Just Let it Go
Just let it Go
Just let it Go
I can feel it in my mind
Can barely look into your eyes
but it's worth the fight
I struggle with these fears
The endless battle deep within
It's not worth the fight
Just Let it Go
Just let it Go
Just let it Go
If you're wondering how I am
If there's a Question in your mind
Just let it go

somewhere my sum=1
somewhere to someone
until then i remain an integer of none
I know somewhere my sum=1
truth and questions blocked out by the sun
let the fools gathering around their pretending sun
they'll freeze
You must be empty and void
as the accusations you've aimed at me
burned me down
so you could be
at the center of attention
As fake
and empty as the glow is bright
their pity will expire
their tears begin to freeze
and cease to drop
The lies become arrows
that black out the sun
light as a feather
they fall one by one
to pierce my heart
dehumanize me
drain my soul
You must be empty and void
as the accusations you've aimed at me
burned me down
so you could be
at the center of attention
The empty foe
needs a supply of light
to portray the sun
so my value is drained
from sum to none
You're the void at the center of attention
my value is drained because
this empty foe needs a supply of light
to portray the sun
my value is drained from sum to none
enjoy my glow
as it warms the night
Shining faux
my foe
my fright
as empty as the glow is bright
for the warming light
of my shining foe
shed faux light with a stolen glow
you're the void at the center of attention
for the warning light
of my shining foe
shed faux light with a stolen glow
you're the void at the center of attention
fill the void
feel the void
Am I getting Louder?
The lies become arrows
that black out the sun
light as a feather
they fall one by one
to pierce my heart
dehumanize me
drain my soul
You must be empty and void
as the accusations you've aimed at me
burned me down
so you could be
at the center of attention
in your place
next to this integer of none
somewhere my sum=1
Fill the Void at the Center of...
am I getting louder
Fill the void at the Center of...
am I getting louder
Fill this void at the center of
fill the void at the center of your attention
made a wish upon oh well...
Void at the center of Attention
You made a wish upon "Oh Well"
Void at the center of attention
Make a wish upon 'Oh Well'
Void at the center of attention
I made a wish upon "Oh Well"
A victim at the center of attention
You made a wish upon 'Oh Well'
Am I getting Louder?
How could you claim to love someone?
