Dark Water

Forced to see the future
Into the mirror that never breaks

The seduction and destruction

Joined in spirit of blind faith 

The abyss looking back

at the rich, the wise and the poor

From avoidance to acceptance

Watching time killing us slow

I'm silent as the waves whisper

Fate is not yours to lose

It's not yours to fool

It drove better men mad

Get what you want

lose what you had

I see my reflection 

in worlds light years way

I hear my screams in the void

The echo knows no names

I fight the endless night

And high tides in vain

A shadow in the shade

Adrift in the dark water

Forced to see the unknown

With hazy stubborn eyes

Caught between need and greed

The disdain and delight

In the endlessness of ends

Anything can resemble to love

From despondence to consequence

Wherever you go, fate will follow

The Deep End

I learned to fill with prayers

The sterile silence I dread

Purging and casting spells 

Begging till my knees bled

Everytime I hold my breath

His moans summons demons

Legions of lust and regret

From the back of my mind

To the front of my wide-eyed gaze

You're there as a mirage

In every plea and every praise

The closing that didn't bring closure

Truce is a farce, love is dissatisfied

They won't kill me with their lies

But please let all this be over 

I can't keep killing you

No matter how much I want to

Say your peace, let it go in the wind

With a whole eternity to live or waste

I'll burn your body, I'll say your name

I'll light up candles to your grace

To contemplate where love cast shadows

And contempt drains the strength

The madness chasing us down

to the deep end

Living through little white lies 

A spirit billows in pale memories

Playing back psalms and songs

To cast away the reverie

In dirty secrets and treacheries

With the faith of the unfaithful

Still he moans ill and unholy

The hunger of the fires

Consuming the whole limbo down

To show, illuminate and purify

Then leaving ashes in my mouth

In the forever of his stillness

He doesn't need to say it anymore

I'll always remember the song

And he won't forget a single note

Then I had to kill you

Although I didn't have to
