Skin & Sorrow
Would you die For me like You promised Such sweetness So tired of this treacle Hold you to your truth So bored with empty words I will have revenge You promised To love me Forever Whatever So tired of this treacle Hold you to your truth So bored with empty words I will have revenge I'm the tragedy that I tried to avoid Your words, your lies Such pretty noise The things you say, they bring such callous joy Rip through my heart and left to fill the void Pretty lies told Why should I believe? Pretty lies told Why should I believe? Revenge I'm the tragedy that I tried to avoid Your words, your lies Such pretty noise The things you say, they bring such callous joy Rip through my heart and left to fill the void

No soul to sell Desperate, dragged down, and dwindling Maintain my grace Swatting at souls like flies Dig deep Concealed now Bright eyes betray a dark heart I don't want you to see That there's darkness in me I walk alone Hiding among the empty ones Keep to myself So well veiled the misery Concealed Just smile now Bright eyes betray a dark heart I don't want you to see That there's darkness in me So many tears My wicked ways So many fears All tuckеd away Bright eyes betray a dark hеart I don't want you to see That there's darkness in me

Each tear feeds the fear Sadness, I once held dear Single, ragged breath Swells in the dance of death Hide your eyes Hide your eyes All skin and sorrow You stand Lament the hours not spent Held by a grieving hand Poetry written, not sent Invested in your misery Mourning, avail your injury You, with the broken wing Bandage your heart And sing Hide your eyes Hide your eyes All skin and sorrow You stand Lament the hours not spent Held by a grieving a hand Poetry written, not sent I remember the nights You blessed me with your eyes Rest now, beautiful soul I remember the nights You blessed me with your eyes Bless me, beautiful soul

I hung you high from a cross To hear your quiet heartbeat fade Reeks of mediocrity And the heaviness, it weighs Would you forgive my sins If I ever asked you to? You know I carry your knives Say my name, I'll run you through Bitter and jaded Hurtful and faded Such a pretty waste Can't stand the taste of Ipecac I laid you softly in the dirt To watch your pale roots grow Nothing special in your skin Light falls dim amidst shadows I live among the hardened few Hide among the vacancies Laughing while you come unglued Maleable decencies Bitter and jaded Hurtful and faded Such a pretty waste Can't stand the taste of Ipecac You gave me almost everything Wrote me songs that broke my heart Gave me voice and made me sing Now, make me stop before I start Bitter and jaded Hurtful and faded Such a pretty waste Can't stand the taste of Ipecac

The darkness has returned It never really left This pain around me burns Like a flame upon my chest Forever wasn't promised But I'd swear it was implied Even the stars Weep at their loss I'll bleed for you Mourn hands not held Just rest now Beneath this veil I try To hide the grief I bear I feel so very frail Yes, I have for quite a while Forever wasn't promised But I'd swear it was implied Even the stars Weep at their loss I'll bleed for you Mourn hands not hеld Just sleep now I'll weep for you Mourn hands not held Just sleep now

You made me bleed I'll watch you burn Down on your knees Now it's your turn Pick at the scab I'll taste your tears Heavy hits the hand Of harm You smell like lies So insignificant I've cut all ties Enter the sacrifant Pick at the scab I'll taste your tears Heavy hits the hand Of harm You're a wound that won't heal The toxicity of bitter tears Run down my cheeks and sting my lips I've served my time You're the sick in my mouth

Gave away my pain My loss no one's gain Steeped in regret Gave away my name Lost my identity Center of gravity I left my light Inside your eyes In your eyes In your eyes Through the eyes of the joyless I saw my goodbye Bright hearts are broken freely Enveloped by your sigh Heart full of white lies Head down, traumatized Shame, what a mess Angry bitterness Blinded by daylight Comfort in darkness I left my light Inside your еyes In your eyes In your еyes Through the eyes of the joyless I saw my goodbye Bright hearts are broken freely Enveloped by your sigh All the things I was All the things I was Through the eyes of the joyless I saw my goodbye Bright hearts are broken freely Enveloped by your sigh

She sings for the dead, only Drawing down the moon, slowly Those who walk through the fire Must return Bless those who blessed us Sing hymns for your dead Surrender to it Pray to lift your light She walks in magic, slowly Sings the songs of love only And then we all fall freely Bless those who blessed us Sing hymns for your dead Surrender to it Pray to lift your light

My perfect misery Breathing deep, feeling lost Weary, withered, mostly frail Your tired spirit fails My beautiful sorrow My beautiful sorrow My perfect wound, my sorrow Darkness creeps in Shine your light down on me Shadowed deep, feeling low My beautiful sorrow My beautiful sorrow Wait among profound thorns Tend the angst that I keep Unknowing and unbound Fathomless and steep My beautiful sorrow My beautiful sorrow
