Sheilds - 2013

-Persistance-

[Instrumental]

-Beneath Your Feet-

This Disease!

Memory is all that's left until we burn it down,
These bones are wasting to dirt
Your decision debased them to poison

The finger points as the compass turns
On your blood and on the source
The finger points as the compass turns

We will follow our eyes as our path is not clear
We'll follow our eyes in search of life

Will you take it again?
Everything we have left?

The finger points as the compass turns
On the bones we built, watch as the crumble and burn

We will follow our eyes as our path is not clear
We'll follow our eyes in search of life

We are, we are the grave beneath your feet
We are, the poison that you drank

We are, we are the grave beneath your feet
When you chose to drink your poison
You chose to leave us all behind

When you chose to drink your poison
You chose to die.

-Oppression-

Our minds are full of misconceptions,
this place is one you'll never own
So back the fuck off
In our minds, our opinions, our impenetrable place of rest
We are brainwashed by the media
Every minute, every hour, every day.

How much of the world has been untouched by eyes of the earth?
How much of the world is there left to be burned?
I'll bury my head to block out the sun.
In our eyes, In our ears, its at the fucking door,
The world of nature has been brought to it's demise.
We have all broken like water upon rocks

How much of the world has been untouched by eyes of the earth?
How much of the world is there left to be burned?
I'll move these mountains with the rage you've harvested
I'll bury your head to block out the sun
I'll move these mountains with the rage you've harvested

-Pages-

I perambulate through my forest
Searching for the young and helpless who cowere in the night

You can try and run but I will win this game

I've been hear once before tonight
These endless pages will be the death of me
You can't escape, you cannot hide
(Vocal glitches)
You can't escape, you cannot hide
You can only hope I'll make it quick and painless

You can't escape, I'm lurking behind every step you make
I am always watching, I'll never rest
Until I have you in my arms
You can try and run but I will win this game
I've been hear once before tonight
These endless pages will be the death of me

I found you, You're fucking mine
My face is white from the emptiness inside
I'll fill this void of mine with your heart and soul
Are you ready to die

-The Silence-

As I fall into the hole where my heart was
I find myself thinking back to where this all began
It seems that im not good enough (good enough)
It seems that im not good enough
I walked this world in search of guidance

And all I found was you
Hiding in your, hiding in your lies
(The truth is yet to come)
But the truth and lies come with one heavy price
What can I
(What can I do to rectifiy this mess"

This mess
(This mess thw world has made of me)
Made of me
I can't stand the silence, wont you break the silence?
I can't stand the silence... Bleh

Break the silence, wont you break

The truth and lies come with one heavy price
What can I
(What can I do to rectifiy this mess"
This mess
(This mess thw world has made of me)

I can't stand the silence because it makes me fucking sick
Of what I've become, of what I must do

-Your Forked Tongue-

My skin beings to crawl like a
comedown off your poison breath;
I was wrong to trust your forked tongue.

How long have you been growing teeth?
Long enough to feed your starving greed

SO BLEED!

So bleed your fucking lies and false love when I cut your paper skin.
My heart would skip a beat with you around, I've learnt to deal with pain,
I've learnt to face the fact.

My heart would skip a beat if you would smile, but you won't.

You are riddled with holes, broken nose, broken home
Now there's nowhere to turn you should of just stayed at home.
Look at me now, look in my eyes
You have taken my sight, you've left me blind

SO I'LL SHOOT YOU IN THE DARK!

Hanging off your crucifix of broken bones and time you've spent
Taking what you did not need

FUCK YOU face the consequence... OH!

My heart would skip a beat with you around, I've learnt to deal with pain,
I've learnt to face the fact.

My heart would skip a beat if you would smile, but you won't, Why won't you smile?
You are cold with no thought for your self
I wish you'd stay and be alive
I am here, won't you just come home
I wish you'd stay and be alive

You taste like sweet black venom poison
Like blood from a wound
Black like malice and cold like a tomb
And I know that I'm not perfect
But you seem to breathe wounds
You live for their creation and when
you die they'll grow on your tomb...

Guilt - 21015

-I've Dealt With Worse-

I've dealt with worse

I float around searching for promise on this one way road
Wasted chances, lost and never found
The ground you walk on moves without me

Wasted chances, lost and never found
My heart is clenched like a fist, I am done
The ground you walk on moves without me

Where do we stand?

Face to face with you, I can't tell where we stand
Am I more than a burden?

Hand in hand with you, I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed
I can no longer love
I've dealt with worse but this feels worse

I can no longer love
I've dealt with worse, you made this worse

I found that love that I lost, it's filling up my chest
My ribs are cracking under the pressure
I want nothing less than the best for you
Make up your fucking mind

I want nothing less than the best for you
So make up your mind
I want nothing less than the best for you

Where do we stand?

Face to face with you, I can't tell where we stand
Am I more than a burden?

Hand in hand with you, I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed
I can no longer love
I've dealt with worse but this feels worse

You had my heart in your hands and you tore it apart.

-No Hope-

No fucking hope

I've seen this before
Another brother, another time
I can see you leaving my life
You spat back at the opportunity of making your life worthwile

We have spent to many years trying to get you on your feet
(Your feet)
I am sick, I am sick of this

This never ending lie
(the fucking lies)
It never ends, the fucking lies

There's only so much i can take
There's only so much i can understand

Now that you've reached your hell I know you'll burn
(Know you'll burn)
After flooding your veins with gasoline
I know that you'll burn

Burn, blister, from the inside out
Fucking burn

You can only blame yourself

We have spent to many years trying to get you on your feet
(Your feet)
I am sick, I am sick of this

This never ending lie
(the fucking lies)
It never ends

Everything has died with everything you used to be
You broke the trust that kept us close
You lost the love I had for you
A shiver down my broken back for every time we took you back.

-Guilt-

How fucking dare you speak his name
You wear his death like its something you gained
How dare you even breathe
If guilt doesn't kill you then I will

You think your safe from the lies that you preach
But I know where you sleep
You better bite your tongue, choke on your blood

I am the voice at the back of your mind
I am everything you left behind
The space is filled with hate, I'll take it for mine
You are everything I despise

How fucking dare you speak his name
You wear his death like its something you gained
How dare you even breathe
If guilt doesn't kill you then I fucking will

I'd rather live in a fucking tomb
Than pass up an opportunity to
Cut your tongue from behind your teeth
I'd rather live in a fucking tomb

I am the voice at the back of your mind
I am everything you left behind
The space is filled with hate, I'll take it for mine
You are everything I despise

I am the voice of a thousand screaming
Our bleeding throats will bleed as one.

-Jordan-

ow can I find something that's not there?
How can I come to terms with the loss of a friend?
Lost inside the time spent crawling through my mind
Searching for something to explain this

I don't understand, it's something I can't grasp
And now it feels like such a waste

With blood so young in your skin

Your memory will carry on, you are gone from our side but not from our lives
I can't find a way to say goodbye, will you be alone?
'Cos we have lost ourselves down here

Lost down here

Your tired eyes, these burdens keep you blind
If only you had seen past the dark

I can't move on by forgetting the past

But my pain is my burden, and life goes on
Life goes on, we have lost ourselves
I can't find a way to say goodbye, will you be alone?
'Cos we have lost ourselves down here
I know the best I can do (my very best)
Is what you'd have wanted (what do you want?)

I can accept, I can accept,
you have left our lives but not our hearts.

-But This Feels Worse-

All of this time I've tried to push it down
I've dealt with worse but this feels worse
My pain is pure and it's yours to remember
I've dealt with worse but this feels worse

You had my heart in your hands and you tore it apart

All of this time I've tried to push it down
I've dealt with worse but this feels worse
My pain is pure and it's yours to remember
I've dealt with worse, you made this worse
Fuck

And still I want nothing less than the best for you.

Life In Exile - 2018

-Intimacy-

Dread,
Girding yourself for something terrible.
We all die, what makes you so fucking memorable?

Was I born in the wrong fucking century?
Is this just how things are meant to be?
We are lonely; we are afraid of intimacy

-Black Dog-

The skin around my bones starts to unravel
And I live exposed. I’ve become so cold
The air inside my lungs starts to go stale as I decompose

I am falling apart, I am falling apart
I am broken; dysfunctional, beyond repair
With my dark companion, crippled by his stare
I am falling apart

This beast is all I have; meet my loathsome friend
Leave us be. I’m not getting any better
This beast is all I have; meet my loyal foe
Leave us be. I’m not getting any better

Black dog

It feels like my last day alive was long ago
A black dog follows me where ever I go

Living this life I’d rather die
I’m done living this life; I’d rather die
I’m done being hounded by a black dog

Feels like my last day alive;
Feels like I shouldn’t keep breathing

-In the Grey-

I should be dead by now
Dead by now
Thick Nails of perception, like claws,
Embedded in my flesh
Pulling me further back down into a nightmare
I could never envision

I am sitting in the grey with glassed up eyes
This is insufferable. I am not myself
I am sick, I should be dead by now
I am sick of the life that waits for me ahead
I am sick, I should be dead by now
As I chewed on the belief
That the problem was always me
I should be dead by now


My mind is a maze of corridors
For hours I would weep at the feeling in my teeth

I am sitting in the grey
This is insufferable
I am not myself
I am sick, I should be dead by now
I am sick of the life that waits for me ahead
I am sick, I should be dead by now
As I chewed on the belief
That the problem was always me

I've got to kick this fucking habit
I am too quick to give up on myself

For hours I would weep at the feeling in my teeth
As I chewed on the belief
That the problem was always me

-Upside Down-

I spend 99% of my fucking time
feeling sorry for myself
Get up, get off your feet

Goddamn, it seems I’ve got some issues to fix
I’ve lost time beating myself down
I’m knuckle deep into brick and mortar
As I bleed I release myself

What’s coming next?

My blood drips on the floor
Always low; so insecurev No running away; I’m losing all control

I don’t know whats coming next for me
What am I supposed to see?
I don’t know whats coming next
I’m so obsessed; what’s coming next for me?

Can I turn my life around if my world is spun upside down?

I am fragile, I will persist and persevere
despite the doubtful voices
Stamp them out
I will stamp them out

What’s coming next?

-White Embers (feat. Spencer Charnas)-

Drive through the streets that burn with gold
White embers turn to fucking mould

Watch at the roads fold like paper
Watch as the sky bends backwards
Aren't you seeing this
Are you fucking blind
Parasites devour the earth

Drive through the streets that burn with gold
White embers turn to fucking mould

Why do my words catch in my throat
Why do you see right through me

The world is at its knees begging for a helping hand
Comets blister through the atmosphere
We are all so fucked, nothing to be done

Is this how it all ends
Why do my words catch in my throat
Why do you see through me
Why do you see me
Please let this be a dream

Drive through the streets that burn with gold
White embers turn to fucking mould
Drive through the streets that burn with gold
White embers turn to fucking mould

Why do words catch in my throat
Why do you see right through me

-It's Killing Me-

Keep me strong

I was a child who never smiled
Every step I took felt like a mile
Compared to everyone I knew I wasn't the same
I lived in exile every day

They say what doesn't kill you
Makes you stronger
It's killing me, killing me
There's no one to keep me strong
Keep me strong

I was a child who never smiled

Time has healed nothing
Time pulled this wound further apart

They say what doesn't kill you
Makes you stronger
What's killing me, killing me
There's no one to keep me strong

They say what doesn't kill you
Makes you stronger
What's killing me
Is having no one to keep me strong
