lyrics

Come, lost, broken soul
Won't you give me a dream
I saw you wander through the halls
Were you looking for me
Come night the air is cold and I can hear you speak
Soft whispers through the walls haunt me to sleep

Sent off to meet my strangled woes
A vacancy
Trespass among the thoughtless, whole, but empty
A march without motion as stiff as a stone
They start to bleed
Black seeping through their bones
A soundless scream

Dissonant forms made of glass
Gather to mourn a spirit passed
Through cracks in their core your image is projecting
The deviant holds heinous lies
Like a mother would hold newborn life
The body declines and none are left standing

And I wonder if, you're thinking, thinking of me
Through this, I see it dissolving through me
And I wish you felt it like knives on your knees
Defy this
Believe in the ghost of me

Drained vessel, your remains are shown through shattered screens
Far past them, you awake alone and caught between
The endless divide of a choice unbeknown
You fail to breathe
An arc of misguided subliminal tones
Your mind recedes

Legions occur
Grasping, thin
Mirroring words held within
I know who you are
But can you really hear me
The decedent stirs
Wakeful eyes are ravaged and blurred
Robbed of sight
Ambivalence dies
And none are left standing

And I wonder if, you're thinking, thinking of me
Through this, I see it dissolving through me
And I wish you felt it like knives on your knees
Defy this
Believe in the ghost of me
And I wonder if, you're thinking, thinking of me
Through this, I see it dissolving through me
And I wish you felt it like knives on your knees
Defy this
Believe in the ghost of me
