The Poacher Diaries

Awaken from the bliss of sleep The daybreak haunts you in such a subtle light I hear them, they tell me these roads we have travelled fork up beyond the bend Beneath the flutter of desperate wings they sing a song of reclamation Where tomorrows hanging horizon interupts the hum of electrical towers Here, there are the shallow graves, the shallower romances and the shallowest of words still to be spoken and there you are with open ears Locust reign on your parade

And the clouds they break above our best intentions The rain it pours upon our last kiss Somewhere between the stinging sheets of city rain and the thunderclap, we see who we are And this is all I have, this is all we are The ground shakes with your every smile And hearts are crushed in an instant The rain it pours upon our last kiss Somewhere between the stinging sheets of city rain and the thunderclap, we see who we are Three years then four days, and one sentence later I rise from ruin, this is all I have, this is mine Today, I rise from ruin

Up for days cutting losses and trading in the most precious of wings The nights never end, and these ghosts will never know true rest They stretch for miles, they take me home In the name of love and you I say... sometimes when you win the war you lose it all Towering, they stretch for miles speaking as eloquently as the tallest of tales They stretch for miles They take me home

No, I'll lay half empty Half finished Half written Until my end I'll leave the lights on just in case you want to be found again To the dead, I wrote you countless letters Dear only some I sent How easy it was for silence to say Some of the loudest of things To speak so effortlessly the words and syllables That can crush in an instant To our end, to the dear departed Are you my last chance or the first chapter In the greatest fable ever told? For the rope is getting shorter and these days They are getting longer with every ghosts I find They leave no heart unbroken, my great devastator To our end, to the dear departed Are you my last chance or the first chapter In the greatest fable ever told? I'll leave the lights on just in case you want to be found again My great devastator

Were it all had meaning, were we fell in love for the first time It erupts in nights like this, tangled in the simplicity of... Some far off distant evening with hearts filled to the brim with good intentions and the sweetest of tragedy I hope you hear me coming, I hope you turn your head Arms spread wide like Jesus, without the heart or cowardice, or mouthful of easy answers Headlong we pace into the killing fields Born of fevers and the brooding night sweats and the war about to be waged Stop crying, just give me the keys I hope you hear me coming, I hope you turn your head Stop crying, just give me the fucking keys Headlong into the killing fields These days I am becoming bulletproof The bells are ringing, it's the end of the line I'm becoming your fears I'm becoming every broken heart I hope you hear me coming, I hope you turn your head

Dear, just one day, just another fight just one more lonely night Just one more crowd under the burning lights (with some blood and mind to be paid) To my friends to my family I tried to be the best man I could ever be I tasted their failure on the entrance way (with some blood and mind to be paid) To my greatest of demons, I beat you I beat you Thanks to nick0168, oceanmachina for sending these lyrics.
