Lost Isles - 2015

-Fourthirtytwo (Intro)-

[Instrumental]

-Blood Brothers-

Born and raised side by side
Been closer than close our whole lives
We share the same blood, same mother and mind
But ended up so different, you and I

You was always a brother to me
Helped me out in times of need
I would anchor down
And weather the storms
You would stand and fight to protect us
This you had sworn

Taste the blood of your brothers
Draw blood
If you fell down we would fall together
Like a sinking ship in stormy weather
You’re the bones to our flesh and skin
But now that you’re gone
It’s time to rethink without you
Home is fractured and broken
I’m still hoping for your safe return
But you never looked back since you
Took your first steps
And mother still grieves over that
Day you left, that day you left
And mother still grieves, still grieves
That day you left

Draw blood
Eliminate the weak
You stray down the wrong path at night
Trying to fight your own way in life
Beaten black and blue from
The eternal flight
Side by side, you know
Everything will be alright With you by my side
Everything will be alright

Taste the blood of your brothers
Born and raised side by side
Been closer than close our whole lives
We share the same blood, same mother and mind
But ended up so different, you and I

You was always a brother to me
Helped me out in times of need
Raised me up for when you were gone
Taught me to take no shit from anyone

You was always a brother to me
Helped me out in times of need
Raised me up for when you were gone
Taught me to take no shit from anyone.

-High Horse-

Get off your high horse and bow before me!
Silver stairs to a castle so high,
that from the tallest tower you could touch the
sky
On an island in an endless sea of sun
The devil dances on the horizon
With your head in the clouds,
I guess it’s hard to hear the sound of a dying world
Where pure evil courses through its veins
We’re just a stain in your beautiful creation
The poison to your apple
We picked all those years ago
We are the poison!

You’re just a snake in the grass
That always seems to slither
right through the cracks unscathed
But you have no one to save you now
I am filled with rage!
I am filled with hate…

Your way with words is your only asset
Wormed your way into every aspect of my life
What makes you think I’d give up without a fight?
Get off your high horse and bow before me
Silver stairs to a castle so high,

that from the tallest tower you could touch the
sky (pretend to fly)
On an island in an endless sea of sun
The devil dances on the horizon

-Vultures And Sharks-

They came to conquer,
all they wanted was to watch us suffer.
Should of known what doesn’t kill me,
only makes us stronger.

Some say we brought this upon ourselves.
Overlooked the cracks.
Never heard the cries for help.
I have no one to blame but myself.
Whispers in the wind,
shared all our sins and secrets.
They came to conquer,
(They Came to conquer) Not for glory
or a hero’s return all they want
is to watch us crash and burn.

Vultures above and sharks
below are waiting for us to fall.
In hope that they’ll catch you and ruin it all.
Circling us from head to toe.
We’re swimming in the shallows arguing to
and fro There’s bad blood in the air.
This killer instincts
the only thing we’ll ever share.
We are the creators of our own demise.
They took to the sea’s.
They took to the skies.
Only had eyes for my prize possessions
Turned all my confessions into lies.

All they want is to watch us crash and burn.
This is what it feels like to be in the jaws of defeat.
One thousand teeth. Slowly sinking in.

Vultures above and sharks
below are waiting for us to fall.
In hope that they’ll catch you and ruin it all.
Circling us from head to toe.
We’re swimming in the shallows arguing to and fro.
There’s bad blood in the air.
This killer instincts the only thing we’ll ever share.
They came to conquer,
all they wanted was to watch us suffer.
Should of known what doesn’t kill me,
only makes us stronger.

-Downsides-

Life’s not as bad as you make it out to be
Reach out… the world is at your feet
You can’t dwell on your feelings, in a city that never sleeps
Stop dreaming
Start believing in yourself
Wake the fuck up, break through the walls
Drop your fears
Control was never lost, it’s always been here
I’m walking on thin lines of broken glass every night
You have no idea, you have no idea

about all the fucked up shit that runs through my mind
Keep your head up son and look on the bright side
Stop weighing up the downsides of life and you’ll be just fine
You’ll be just fine
In this concrete jungle, you’ve got to fight to stay alive
Burn bridges in order to survive
Opportunity is your only ally,

shut your mouth it’s your only alibi
But the worst part about this is I can’t fully describe it
These problems and issues - are not mine
I can’t help you, it’s up to you
Stop dreaming, start believing
Show no weakness and hide your feelings
I’m walking on thin lines of broken glass every night
You have no idea, you have no idea

bout all the fucked up shit that runs through my mind
Keep your head up son and look on the bright side
Stop weighing up the downsides of life and you’ll be just fine.
You’ll be just fine

-Floorboards-

Asking so many questions
Finding so little answers
My friends told me to give up the ghost
and move on
But I don't like to take my chances
to take my chances

Pick me up off the floorboards
I'm not dead and burried yet
They always seem to creak
When I needed someone to speak to
They've been the only thing I've talked to in weeks
Where were you
Where were you?

Stitch me up and make me new
I need someone to pull me through
Endless nights with open wounds
I've been to hell and back because of you

Why tell me I need to change?
When you woke up in someone else's bed
Without even knowing their name

I may have crossed the line
This Time!
But I sure as hell hope you have a rope for this climb
From here on out it's all a downward slope
And I'm not falling for anyone or anything
Othe than the noose you tied around my neck

I've lost all sense of space and time
Just thinking about when you were mine
The days become weeks and the weeks into months
I refuse to put on these implausible fronts
To face the world would cause me to self destruct
To face the world would cause me to self destruct
The days become weeks and the weeks into months
I refuse to put on these implausible fronts
To face the world would cause me to self destruct
To face the world

Pick me up off the floorboards
I'm not dead and burried yet
They always seem to creak
When I needed someone to speak to
They've been the only thing I've talked to in weeks
Where were you
Where were you?

Picke me up (Up!) off the floorboards
I'm not dead and buried yet
So pick me up (Up!) off the floorboards
I'm not dead and buried yet!

-Linger-

You was always trying to
make us into something we could never be,
So you may as well erase me.
Best kept memories, worthless apologies.
Inseparable, now you won’t even acknowledge me.
You were all that I had; you were all that I had.
We would run between the lines and
I would chase you every single time.
Painting by numbers, how hard could it be?
Stole all the water colours from our dreams.
Told me our future was all just make-believe.

Ripped me open for my friends to see,
destroyed my world and made me bleed.
Lost the most beautiful thing I’d ever seen.
You took my heart and painted it black,
looking on the bright side is something
I lack.
You were all that I had.
I lie in my room pulling out my own hair.
It gives me something to do, but doesn’t get me anywhere.
Not even time can repair
the space the you left here in my chest.

You linger in the air.
So fuck the facts, you knew all along we’d never last.
You were all that I had, you were all that I had.
We would run between the lines and
I would chase you every single time.
Painting by numbers, how hard could it be?
Stole all the water colours from our dreams.
I lie in my room pulling out my own hair.
It gives me something to do, but doesn’t get me anywhere.
Not even time can repair the space
the you left here in my chest.
You linger in the air.
I used to think you was beautiful.
But now you’re just bland and I’m so cynical.
Your colours faded away unlike my feelings for you.

-Equinox (Interlude)-

[Instrumental]

-Part Of Something-

I have never felt like I’ve been part
of something.
Community is a lost cause.
I need to be where I once was,
Not with the people I want but the ones that I trusted.
This is a toast, to make amends to all

our friends who were there from the start.
Apologies we had to leave, we thank you with open arms.
You made us who we are.
We’ll drink to this, through thick and thin.
Lost in desire.
Misdirected but never inspired.
Even though we are miles apart,
you kept us close, held to your hearts.
Through these years we’ll drift afar.
My head will always be back at the start.

You kept us close, held to your hearts.
We’ve come so far, to look back now.
We will never leave you behind.
We’ll always find a way.
We’ll always find a way.

I can see through you with the eyes of a snake.
With good intentions I’ve learnt once, I’ll learn twice.
The open road is not my only home.
This is a toast, to make amends to
all our friends who were there from the start.
Apologies we had to leave, we thank you with open arms.
Lost in desire,
Misdirected but never inspired.
Even though we are miles apart,

you kept us close, held to your hearts.
Through these years we’ll drift afar.
My head will always be back at the start.
This is what you call a real friendship.
This is what you call a real friendship.
This is what you call a real friendship.

-Over The Edge-

Conjured from the very thing I despise.
Like a cancer it grows inside.
You always had the god damn wit.
With just a flick of the wrist, to pop the
button and push her buttons and send her over the edge.
I’ll remember this to the end.

You and your god damn wit pushed her over the edge.
Contagious in every light, and I can’t stand the sight of myself.
Living this life in skin I’m not worthy to wear.

As memories fade, I can feel myself beginning to change.
Even in my sleep there’s no escaping.
Voices plot and plunder, they’re saturating
my mind with words of wisdom.
That destroy the world which I once calle
d my kingdom.
With just a flick of the wrist.
You went and pushed her over the edge.
You and your god damn wit.
I’ll remember this to the end.
You and your god damn wit, pushed her over the edge.

-Entity-

Everything changed that day
I saw the great white light and passed through to the other side.
In a moment of madness when time stood still,
all that was wrong, felt perfectly fine.
I was never the saint, more like a sinner.
But I knew my rights from all my wrongs.
That living for the sake of loving,
was where my heart always belonged.

You’ll always have a place in my heart,
even after death pulls us apart.

I am the ghost that haunts this place.
The cold that always touches your face.
The thought that sends her weak at the knees.
I sing the songs that get lost in the breeze.
I am the ghost that haunts this place.
The cold that always touches your face.
The thought that sends her weak at the knees.
I sing the songs that get lost in the breeze.
I am the entity.
Oh what I do to let you see me smiling down at you.
I’ll be the light to guide you from harm’s
way and fight to keep your demons at bay.

If you need me, just pray.
I am the ghost that haunts this place.
The cold that always touches your face.
The thought that sends her weak at the knees.
I sing the songs that get lost in the breeze.
You’ll always have a place in my heart, even after death pulls us apart.
I am the entity.

-Lost Isles-

I left behind streets paved with gold,
to live a life in the dirt and the undergrowth.
I cut all ties, severed myself from what they
called “the real life”.
Carved my path through stone, where am I now?
No one knows.
With new lungs to breathe and fresh eyes to see.
I pity those too weak to not break free.

Living their life on old ideologies,
that have been passed down for centuries.
Run free and see what you want to see.
Get lost along the way…Break free.
Forever searching for an open door.
All I’ve known my whole life is how to run.
Through distant lands and foreign shores.
To escape has been my only thought.
Raised by wolves into the wild.
I am a son of the lost isles.
Raised by wolves into the wild.
I am a son of the lost isles.
No rules, or religions.

Just a free world and my own decisions.
I’ve never been home…
I don’t belong anywhere.
I guess I’m homeless because home
is where the heart is and I’ve never been home.
Forever searching for an open door.
All I’ve known my whole life is how to run.
Through distant lands and foreign shores.

To escape has been my only thought.
Raised by wolves into the wild.
I am a son of the lost isles.

-Mirage-

Everything... reminds me of you.
So much so, that there’s nothing
I can do - to escape, but shout your name.
These echoes are the only thing that
keeps me sane (that keeps me sane).
I’m trying my hardest to forget.
Not to let your face, mirage inside my head…
Smile’s come few and far between…these days.
I can overcome this, but the numbness,
I’ve endured for so long.
It’s hard to break the mould.
I can barely keep my head above the waves;
cus’ this hurt, it never fades.
It never fades!

I’ve endured this - for so long.
This pain - never fades.
A kaleidoscope of emotions, that changes with the wind.
When will I be free again?
This pain it never fades…
What more, do you ask of me?
I bear the scars and a broken heart on my sleeve,
that’s so heavy I cannot breathe.
So I beg you and I plea.
Just let me go, just set me free - because the pain it never fades.

Hikari - 2017

-Benzaiten-

[feat. Alex Teyen of Black Tongue]

Born to premeditated harm

Her infant limbs
Ripped from her mothers arms
Born to premeditated harm
Lifeless

She never wanted this
She her wanted to live like this
No honor

They raise her to her feet
Pure as the lotus leaves
Blossoming from this
From this disfigured earth
Yet so colorless

Just don't be afraid just don't be afraid
She watches over you grieving with your pain
They should be afraid they should be afraid
Bow down or no neck remains uncleaved
Flowing like a stream with unrestrained fluidity
To rid the world of this disease

Silently existing immersed in green
Her heart still pure as the lotus leaves
Her heart still pure as the lotus leaves
Stalking in the confines of the night
With a thirst to massacre her fucked up mind

She rises to her feet
Her heart empty with grief

Something sharper no mercy no neck remains uncleaved
As she watches the kingdom burn redder than the autumn leaves
No mercy no neck remains uncleaved

-Sarin-

Silver tongue silver tongue
It's all bull shut that stems from his lungs
Played sweet deceiver for so long
The web he weaved will soon be undone

Fuck your interfering
I don't believe a single word that I'm hearing

You'll never know the things he does while you're asleep
He's counting women while you're busy counting sheep
You'll never know the things he does while you're asleep
He's counting women while you're busy counting sheep
I swear if you only knew all the things he does when he's not with you

Inflicted with the wandering eyes
Silent killer with insatiable appetite

They say that nothing lasts forever
Now I know now I know it's true
Gifted him the world but I was a fool
To think that he would too
A victim of his selfish ways
This time the predator predator turns to prey

Still walks around like a gift
Ignorant to his head in the cross hairs
It always was it always has been there
Through thick and thin
This broken skin is all
It's all that keeps him whole

I promise this life will go on
It was always him that was the weak one
Played sweet deceiver for too long
This web he weaved has come undone

Your poison killed your own
Your poison killed your own
Your poison killed your own

-Covert-

You know I have this unrelenting fear
That I'm wasting every minute every hour that I'm living here
I won't ask for sympathy
Just the understanding that I can't change that part of me

I'm just so scared to admit
Act like I don't give a shit
Hide behind this masquerade
Hide behind this masquerade
So sick of being like this
Trapped in this ignorant bliss

The very fabric of my being is fucking torn

You know I have this unrelenting fear
That I'm fighting the days but losing the years
It's calling my name
Every day is the same
Except this voice in my head
Is merely fueling the flames

It's calling my name
Just show me what it means for me to feel again
It's calling my name

So take me away
From this godforsaken place
These empty eyes and fake smiles made me believe
I am defective my own worst enemy
Put up these walls to hide my secret
My deepest 'cause I know you won't believe it
You won't believe

I'm just so scared to admit
Act like I don't give a shit
Hide behind this masquerade
Hide behind this masquerade
So sick of being like this
Trapped in this ignorant bliss

To live like this
Trapped in this ignorant bliss

-Hansha-

Incarcerated between these worlds
Reality seems to lose it's hold
We hide away and try to fill the space between these thoughts
Detached from everything that lives and breathes
Emotions just words on a screen
So fabricated is the life we lead
So fabricated is the life we lead

Side by side
You'll watch the world world pass you by
An affliction this addiction
Side by side
Out of sight you're out of mind
So obsessed with imitation

Stuck living in this cycle of vanity
Will self loathing even matter if they're calling your name
Call my name

When happiness is so dependent on shallow words
Spoken from the mouths of introverts
Measuring your own self worth

Feeding your anxieties
They'll throw you to the wolves
At the slightest hint of weakness
Just don't let it defeat us

Turn a blind eye
Why should you give a fuck what they say
I'll never give a fuck what they say
Your judgements preconceived of me

Don't waste your life living a lie
Worthless lie

Incarcerated between these worlds
Incarcerated between these worlds
These worlds

-Deadweight-

This empty space
It overwhelms me
Invokes the darkness from inside
I fear I'm losing my mind

Follow this compass
That occupies my chest
It always leads me back to you
It always leads me back to you

You have this pull on me
A force that flows from deep beneath the surface
You are my gravity
You are my gravity

Set ablaze like a wildfire
The day our worlds collide
I can't expect you to forget
You're moving mountains for me
When all I do is bring you pain

With open arms
I shall accept my fall from grace
With open arms
I shall accept my fall from grace
With open arms
I shall accept my fall from grace
With open arms
I'll accept my fate
I'll accept my fate

I'm nothing but deadweight
I'm nothing but deadweight

Set ablaze like a wildfire
The day our worlds collide
I can't expect you to forget
You're moving mountains for me
When all I do is bring you pain
All I ever do is bring you pain

-Veridical-

[Instrumental]

-Entrapment-

Condemn these visions of clarity
Vast glaciers they conceal reality
I'm so sick of all the memories that haunt my mind
Frost bitten but convince myself that I'll be fine
This time it's gone too far
This time it's gone too far

This fragile cover can pull you under
Please don't bury me
Why can't I keep these thoughts from caving in
Like an avalanche
Like an avalanche

All it takes is one little step
To be the death of us

So suffocate beneath this weight
Entrapment
Concealed so deep it's slowly killing me
This emptiness in my head pulls me apart at the seams

Purity let's slip to deception
I'm caught beneath the ice searching for my reflection
On step wrong move caused it all to shift
A consequence but it don't mean shit

Desolate
Entrapment

The recklessness has fallen silent
But I never took you as one for violence
The damage is already done
You left me numb

This fragile cover can pull you under
Please don't bury me
Why can't I keep these thoughts from caving in
Like an avalanche
Like an avalanche

So tread lightly now the snow is weak
I should have never gone so deep
Take my hand
Take my hand
So pull me out of this avalanche

-Hikari-

Down foreign paths and uncharted shores
The beauty lies within these wars
Overcome the wilderness with countless failures
For I'm not living just to exist

I'm on the verge of discovering
This person I'm meant to be
I'm on the verge of discovering
This person I'm meant to be
I'm on the verge of discovering
My calling

Sometimes losing yourself is the only way back home
Believe in me it's all you need
True happiness is the greatest discovery

Forget the ones who tell you how to feel
It's crystal clear once you know it's real
Been here all along right in front of you
Stood in resounding opacity
It's the greatest discovery

-Birth-Marked-

Just a child
Who longed to see you smile
But you tore my heart apart
And forced me into the wild
Just a child
Made to carry this burden
Made to carry this burden

Cast into darkness from the day I was born
Crying out for help but beat to the floor
You never loved me
You never loved me

Battered and broken
Left stripped of emotion
These wounds go far beyond skin deep (far beyond skin deep)
What have you done to me
What have you done to me
Starved of the love I craved so desperately

Hush little baby don't you say a fucking word
You make my skin fucking crawl

My innocence consumed by fear
Drowning in waterfalls of tears
Yet through a tyranny of words
There's still love here
Can't you see that there is still love here

Battered and broken
Left stripped of emotion
These wounds go far beyond skin deep (far beyond skin deep)
What have you done to me
What have you done to me
Starved of the love I craved so desperately

Just a child
The one that you defiled
I bear the scars from my past
A life that you had exiled
Just a child
Born condemned to rejection

Waste away
Though you gave me life you're fucking dead to me
Waste away
Waste away

-Ukiyo-

[Instrumental]

-Escapist-

You're my enigma
Why claim another life
When you're still ruling
A sea of corrupt minds
Feed from my weakness
(my weakness)
I fear my hands are tied

Afflicted over and over again

This vicious cycle it eats me away
The very soul of this person you lead astray

Fighting this with every breath I breathe
When the smoke fills up my lungs
It's so hard it's just so hard to see what's underneath
I lust for strength to just come clean or bite my tongue and let it bury me

I know there's a hell 'cause you're keeping me here
You're keeping me here
You're keeping me here

(Fighting this with every breath I breathe
When the smoke fills up my lungs
It's so hard just so hard to see what's underneath)

Fighting this with every breath I breathe
When the smoke fills up my lungs
It's so hard it's just so hard to see what's underneath
I lust for strength to just come clean (come clean)
or bite my tongue and let it bury me

I lust for strength to just come clean (come clean)
And let it bury me bury me (bury me)
I lust for strength to just come clean
Or bite my tongue and let it bury me

You're my enigma
Why claim another life
When you're still ruling
A sea of corrupt minds
Feed from my weakness
(my weakness)
I fear my hands are tied

Afflicted over and over again
Fuck

I know I could have been a better me
I know I could have been a better me
