Old World 03:25
You're a thief, and I'm a liar waiting for another summer to run its course. I believe that there's a love that you cannot see, and I misjudged it And now we're bleeding. That's the last of the old world as we stand inside an hour glass and find that the image turns as the hours pass into a face that years past have changed. Lines we sew Into our own faces As we grow and all we know changes.

Prospect 02:58
Break a sweat over me. I don't mind. I don't mind. Break your back and your teeth Just to see if you're seen. Force yourself to believe On your knees Scarred, but clean. Hope's a thing that you only consume. I look for the day when I don't need you. Pierce the quiet with your laugh. On your tongue, I was so young. Inside your eyes it's turning black. But don't hold back. No, don't hold back. Retrospect's not all that bad. Looking back will make you go mad. Hope's a thing that you only consume. I look for the day that I don't need you. I was collected like an insect Pierced against the walls to make you forget. 'Cause you could never cope with the prospect That the walls are getting closer by the minute.

Winter/Press 04:41
You never know how to feel. You're becoming less real Becoming less real. And you can't bring the joy that I want Bring the joy that used to make me feel. So I told you. So I told you: Life is what you make of it. It's not what you can take from it. That breath you took, It's all you have. Open your eyes. Open your eyes. Oh, you can take it out on me. I'll try to be, I'll try to be A better stain upon this earth. Open your eyes. We don't want hell.

Sleep 03:27
I was caught in a dream Where I was the person I should be If you had stayed right beside me In the water so heavy I saw you so clearly. The green mountains are calling. Green leaves ever falling. Now I wake to the concepts That the world is now spinning, And I'm barely breathing. The ocean is drying. My withered hands dying. I know you're somewhere beneath me. On some ancient shore sleeping. All that I am contained in hollow flesh, Is there a fate in hell that's worse than this? All that there should be, but there isn't is cursing the bed that I am sleeping in. Belief is a poison coursing through my head Hoping for morning some time after death.

Perian 06:14
When all the lights go And all my blood flows My head will not close. I'm dead in the night song. The house speaks And moves in me Every small creak Is a melody. And I'm losing the battle in me. And I'm fooling the world that I'm free. If the water was your home, I would buy a boat And sleep upon the ocean Holding onto hope. And if I could hold my breath, And never breath again, Aloft the waves unfolding Bear me to the west.
