Every second allowed to be fashionably late Is a second from me you take I hope I’ve been nourishing longings unsaid Just look straight ahead, airways collapsing, The flash of my silhouette the choke will bring Looks like I’ve been nourishing fevers and dread Breathe all me in Relive the sin Who’s your new best friend? Anyone instead The plainer the better there’s no love to lose Smoothing out the loss, without bruising all the gloss You’re alone Meet my new best friend With the sweetness ingested, the bitterness aches Leaving sweetness for charity’s sake Now I’m granted permission; acerbic rewind, Is there anything else you’ve lost? Oh yes, your time Breathe all me in Relive the sin We all send our condolences We all send our full expenses Let us all pretend we’re wonderfully content, and raise a glass to absent friends

This will be the last of me you’ll see Rest assured this time These are the last words I’m still desperate for more Verbose maxims, grasping on to reasons Your same touchés, impaling and well seasoned Can’t you see rhetorical guilt? Can’t you feel the lyrical lilt? Spit it out now, spit it right back Enterprise together never dies Bear in mind designs have a legal bind You flip the switch, so innate and perfect I’ll be worthy of tomorrow’s brunch subject There is more Pandora has in store I’ll blow the dust off your secret heartbreak Oh I see through you There’s the tone that hides the pain Oh I see through you Your abuse still tastes the same Tell me the truth Since I do not believe you Enterprise together never dies Bear in mind designs have a legal bind Genesis is shared In the sketches we draft to map our hearts Genesis is shared In the timbers we lay to keep our faith embraced Someday I’ll teach you to not forget that

Scalene 05:05
I’ll stand here, rib deep and wading in You’ll stand there, so weightless and serene This wasn’t ever a question – of self-fulfilling prophecy This wasn’t ever a question – of proving love Conjoined, we were face to face Eye to eye Rotate, now we’re heel to heel, unglued Polarized, polarized; now the magnet’s gone Polarized, polarized; now the physics says it’s true The balance was biased all along You ran away with double negatives You ran away with artful paradox ... away with fancied flight of thought This is how you have come out righteously? Not a chance I covet you through and through You cover me with your dues You ran away with every promise Conjoined, we were face to face Eye to eye Rotate, now we’re heel to heel, unglued Polarized, polarized; you left years ago Nothing left anymore to share with you Nothing left anymore to spare from you

Forensics 05:24
Cast the rescue line my way again It coils around my neck instead The more I tug the more it tightens Madrugada missives Memory dismissive Build it high, cement dry Soon weight swings, collapse in I’d pick you off the suspect line Hands tied and blind I’d pick you off the suspect line In any grain of time Your phenotypes are my enzymes Too much pride, zealous mind Still employed scoring points I’m glad I’ve something to hide Keep social decency high My image of you is the perfect race The blueprint’s logged; I can’t erase the data I’d pick you off the suspect line Grey haired and blind I’d pick you off the suspect line In any grain of time Once a sage told me to never recapitulate And I ignored him because I never knew just what he meant

Dust to Dust 07:11
Miracles arise as the genome still unwinds We are left to chance and chance will be a fine thing (chance will do just fine) Think of the permutations that occurred Think of the combinations that endured That led you to my arms Constellations burst like fireworks and shower down Sparking a blessing of life your touch revives Misty sunlight dapples the earth Incubating my mind All these seeds that germinate leave Only one fruit behind I will blossom, show my colours Only for you I will for you Constellations burst like fireworks and shower down Sparking a blessing of life your touch revives Here’s the meaning of life: there’s always hope Here is the meaning of life: there is hope (there’s always hope) Every scene, the meet-and-greet, the wine-and-dine, has cause Each choice has a consequence The penny-fountain creation And now you stand, pressed in my hands, I’m shown the reason Your fingertips stamp the seal of beauty existing Your fingertips stamp the seal that beauty exists Your fingertips stamp the seal of beauty existing Every scene, meant to be Now you stand, in my hands I can find the reason why Essence is here, in us

Neptune 04:07
Hope caught in these four stone walls Faithful torture seeps through Tears loosen tension, seasoning the sea Weathered his face; not dead, stronger Your vast anatomy suffocated me The weight of the world wrenched our shoulders Keep me guarded, safe within you Forever treasure Reflect the bleak lunar gaze Reflect Pounding, engulfing, dissolving monotony How worthless our nerve against the deep swell Possessing, absorbing our rationality The weight of the world wrenched our shoulders Keep me guarded, safe within you Forever treasure Behold, the grey landscape calls So cold, I’m so cold The grey landscape falls away Unfold and let sense be infinite and echo history The weight of the world wrenched our shoulders Surrender to the sea and offer your heart Keep me guarded, safe within you Take me somewhere, somewhere new But somewhere with you

This is a life quiescent through principles To venture forward I need the past to sign consent forms The turmoil of symbiosis has bent the lock You try to force with keys you cut that just aren’t hers Fairytales make jokes of social interplay I thought I’d accepted modern human traits I’m keratinized too thickly to absorb Give me all you have You didn’t even think about the way this would affect me The silent kill The silent killer Maybe you’re right I find it hard to say the words to you It’s the classic line in the book So every sigh I hold is a dissonant ode of regret Dear Alice, I’m the Tin Man Cold, rusting steel Dear Alice, I’m the Tin Man I just won’t heal This is introspection at its most self-indulgent A vendetta against myself You didn’t even think about the way this would affect me

Ruin Ethics 05:03
The fear of belief that you had in the past Sweet denial The fear of intrusion that you chose in illusion was never given a chance I’m down on both knees, thought it would be the one I’m so perfect The honours list should have me up for knighthood, not an execution I can say those words, but they’ve lost all their worth The space between the ash and flame The space between the thought and shame If I survived the Judgement would I gain respect? There isn’t even the symbolism worthy to dissect Bitterness and remorse play tug-of-war Forgiveness is just too hard Just too hard Only Jesus wins Losing perspective has shown me the door Sweet denial It would have been nice if I knew how finite was our ‘forever more’ The concept of moral ground is a farce I’m so perfect When all that I take is everybody’s mistakes with a magnifying glass The space between the ash and flame The space between the thought and shame If I survived the Judgement would I lose respect? There isn’t even the cynicism left to break your neck

In Memoriam 06:57
You’re waltzing through nostalgia Your tempo syncs the rhythm back Your glide of figure is unmistakable It’s the only thing now that really is You were the purity And still you tarnish me Fate has argued long enough It’s all you It’s always you Everything is calm, so calm and fluid There’s too much sweet nausea in your black lace to be anyone else We’ve found each other again and we deserve space I’ll let you touch the brushstrokes I’ll let you tilt on the gentle slope of grass Now I’ve earned subsistence in your grace Solar power was all that was needed It’s all you It’s always you Everything is calm, so calm and fluid Fate has argued long enough You were the purity And still you tarnish me Faces concealed Your fingers wind into the dorsal grooves you carved And I pray you’ll follow me as I drag you through the dark Faces concealed I can't find out who is real
