A Patient Man

Bleeding hands Claw at the dirt I am eating the earth It tastes of fear and desperation And I can't get enough I will feed I will feed I will feed I will feed Feed Feed Feed Feed I will feed For the void devours all There's no cure I can't stop Stop Stop I was born to become a blackhole In a blue sky Heal me Heal me Heal me Heal me Heal me Heal me Heal me Heal me Please Please Please Please Please heal me Heal me Heal me Heal me Heal me Heal me Heal me Heal me

Mutilate me, cut me open Let me spill my truth, into the dust Divination through blood Through the viscera The path will reveal itself If you crawl inside and see the world through my eyes Suffer this hate This unnameable depression Slowly grinding against your skull Like shards of broken glass Of broken glass I will destroy who you are Leave you broken and wanting more I will destroy who you are Leave you broken and wanting more The path's disguised as love Let it bring you joy Believe it's real So I can take it all away All I want is everything All I want is everything All I want is everything All I want is everything All I want is everything All I want is everything All I want is everything All I want is everything

The air is close The dark is closer Windows shut out the light What bleeds through illuminates nothing I don't know how long it’s been Time passes by and pays me no mind My bones are crawling inside my flesh I'm made of snakes that hate the sun Extend your hand I won't take it Extend your hand I won’t take it Extend your hand I won't take it Extend your hand I'll cut it off The world seeps in through the cracks As distant laughter A spreading plague of joyful corpses Warmth, wealth and love lay outside these walls I am all I need, alone with my enemy Endless isolation ritual Endless isolation ritual Endless isolation ritual Endless isolation

Arise mother of misery Arise as divine sorrow I offer up all I am So that you may feast on me Pass through me like dark light Make my burden yours Let this pass from me Daughter of the dark Dance with me to the sound of God's infinite silence And when the sun rises again I will be made new Safe from your touch From your poison thoughts And your heart breaking power If I could see the sun Just one last time I would be made new I would be made new I would be made new I would be made new I would be made new I would be made new I would be made new

In a world of joy A light will fall On the hearts of all mankind So full of love But not for me From atop the cross Poison flowed from Christ Now I wake up numb In a world of joy I will not weep For the dark has come And the fear has passed I surrender There's no place for me In a world of joy I will not weep I will not weep I will not weep I will not weep I will not weep I will not weep In a world of joy I will dance on my own grave

In the shame of youth stood the lion's ghost Black eyed and smiling Ignorant and innocent It was my first taste of death A violent sour loss Violent sour loss A violent sour loss and the guilt is eating me alive Eating me alive Eating me alive My memories of you are worth more than god A string not broken by indifferent hands of fate But by my fucking need for never ending pain Pain I should be dead I should be dead Not you I should be dead Not you

The words are sick but sweet For my lungs are full of roses And my mouth's full of thorns As a boy, they taught me how to hate As a boy, they taught me how to hate myself Within the sanctuary, they forged a mournful blade of flesh and guilt I speak the language of violence I know the cost of guilt The empty throne to which it leads I’ve become the thorns in the crown of Christ He will share my pain Together we will weep I've become the thorns

Behind somber eyes of muted silver I cultivate my pain For they are shields And my tongue a weapon Cut deep and lick the pain Cut deep A sharpened edge through soft skin A human shell of venom I shine this golden light upon you Let you call it life Beautifully crated words mean nothing They carry no weight For within my heart, you’ll find no purchase I’ll leave you just as dead as me Just as dead as me Just as dead as me Me Golden Empty Full of venom

Every sleepless night, I freeze to the bone Every sunless day begs for the thaw But all warmth has gone from this place My eyes open and the world is new The weight of the sun The cost of love The fear of peace carved into my bones Such sweet hell Such sweet hell Such sweet hell Such sweet hell If I give in, I let him win Such sweet hell Such sweet hell For within me waits a patient man Look upon me All the world Behold thy pain And weight of fear I will carry you I won't give in I will carry you to my end

The road is endless and paved in misery Tears fall and turn to glass Yet we must walk on Step after merciless step We're shredded to the bone We bleed We grow We grow callus Our great reward is waiting Shining bright in the distance We must walk on Passed empty houses We must walk on To the broken right hand of god We must walk on We leave or are left behind We must walk on We must walk on We must We will fail Fail
