Vervain

We were taught to fight A wild river pulses in my blood And the air is soft against my skin I'm alone at night And I feel the earth flow Like a tide inside me There's a river in my body I see the circle of all my deeds I feel the fire in my intentions I hear my voice It's finding me From earth to body My wilderness Wash away all trace The clear water purifies my soul And the air is soft against my skin Standing face to face With the fearsome earth rising Like a wave inside me There's a tempest in my body I see the circle of all my deeds I feel the fire in my intentions I hear my voice It's finding me From earth to body My wilderness My wilderness My wilderness My wilderness My wilderness I heed my powers I heed my enemies I see the circle of you and me I feel the fire in my intentions I hear my voice It's finding me From earth to body My wilderness A sea of silence It's closing in On me on fire On my intentions I hear my voice It's taking me From earth to heaven My wilderness

[feat. Michelle Darkness] Love decay, love cast away Words crumble into dust Skin to skin You're innocent but who am I to trust I feel the blow to turn around Make love revive just one more time Can we be creatures of the night I am bound to live forever I'm alive enough to sense you Why am I hiding Are we only dying Your breath of life I feel your warmth like sunshine on a rock Sin by sin You're innocent and who am I to trust I don't know how to turn this page Make life revive, some day it ends Can we be lovers in the light I am bound to live forever I'm alive enough to sense you Why am I hiding Are we only dying I am cursed to love in darkness I'm alive enough to touch you Why am I breathing Am I only dying to crumble into dust Why am I thriving Why am I denying Why am I longing I feel the blow to turn around Make love revive just one more time Can we be creatures of the night I am cursed to love in darkness I'm alive enough to touch you Why am I breathing Am I only dying to crumble into dust Are we only dying Crumble into dust Love decay Love decay

I have loved for centuries But I am still yearning Die or survive your enemies We are here still craving I have loved in silent ecstasy I feel the pulse and the heat Every move is a hunting breed It's a creeping desire You're my purple fire I could write a century But my poet lingers Lie or deny your enemies We are here still pining I have loved in silent ecstasy I feel the pulse and the heat Every move is a hunting breed It's a creeping desire You're my purple fire We will love for centuries And we are still pining I have sinned in silent ecstasy I feel the pulse and the heat Every move is a hurting breed It's a creeping desire You're my purple fire I am pining for you Vervain I have sinned in silent ecstasy I feel the pulse and the heat Every move is a hurting breed It's a creeping desire You're my purple fire Fire burning vervain

Where did all the ravens fly Earth dry, all starving Seasons are passing by Nothing left but a burning sun Running sweat down my neck I feel faint, I feel dizzy No breeze to chill me Standstill of everything I can't breathe Where do we go now Where do we feed We used to be hunters, hunters[2x] Feathers are broken Worn out and dust-like Dead weeds and rivers dry Desolation complete Fire winds are passing by Nothing left but a burning sun Running sweat down my neck I feel faint, I feel dizzy No breeze to chill me Standstill of everything I can't breathe Where do we go now Where do we feed We used to be hunters, hunters[3x] I can't breathe Where do we feed We used to be hunters

She will be waking Waiting to raise from the mud In her own brightness She's solitarily proud My lotus will rise Show through the dark Sealed to the ground My hands not gentle enough to hold her soul Shimmering lonely star Quietly thinking Why hurry this life away Open-minded intentions Peaceful with all that surrounds My lotus will rise Show through the dark Sealed to the ground My hands not gentle enough to hold her soul Shimmering lonely star Some day she'll wither Like the first love in young arms Calmed by the winter Frozen inanimate life My lotus will shine Glow through the dark Sealed to the ground Your blooms tender but strong to hold my soul Shimmering lonely star Your lotus will shine Grow through the dark Sealed to the ground Your blooms tender but strong Enlighten my soul Shimmering lonely star Lotus don't linger Open the cage of my heart

I don't mind if you don't care 'Cause we don't have much love to share Why do we hold on Why do we hang on to relations Elucidation, elucidation oh This feels so wrong My bright side, your revelation Elucidation, elucidation You could feel so loved I will get over you, I will, you too Let's build a barricade in the blue It works in my imagination So far this always gets us through Why do we hold on Why do we hang on to relations Elucidation, elucidation oh This feels so wrong My bright side, your revelation Elucidation, elucidation You could feel so loved I'm drowning in your tide of darkness Of your damnation This open space inside is like an open grave of your damnation I'm drowning in your tide of darkness Elucidation Why do we hold on Why do we hang on to relations Elucidation, elucidation oh This feels so wrong Why do we hold on Why do we hang on to relations Elucidation, elucidation oh This feels so good

When the rain's dripping from the ceiling Mingling with the dark I feel the fire Thirsting, longing eyes of those of us Not yet asleep The eyes of a beast come out, come out I sense no inward struggle not to go I am detained Two and a heart We seize the night and fall with day You and I Two and a heart When the wind's whipping my white skin I breathe the cold in I feel desire Bursting with the need to celebrate I'm not at all asleep The mind of a beast come out, come out I sense no inward struggle not to go I am detained Two and a heart We seize the night and fall with day You and I Two and a heart One by one we melt with death Our souls never rest One by one No one of us will ever come to rest We will never come to rest Come out We seize the night and fall with day You and I we're two Two and one heart

Creeping I crawled ten miles Drenched in mud Scorching sand I want to lay down It won't release me This vacuum sound Creeper I am breaking into pieces I am sinking from reverie To still life Creeper I'm a creeper Creeper I creep for life I am breaking into pieces I am sinking from reverie To still life A drop of love A second of your keen sight You make me want to surrender See me shattered See me on my hands and knees But I know there is water underneath us underneath the desert sand I'm a creeper Creeper I creep for life A drop of love A second of your keen sight You make me want to surrender See me shattered See me on my hands and knees But I know there is water underneath us Underneath the desert sand Creeper I'm a creeper I creep for life

I saw their silhouettes passing Along the sleepy walls I heard their voices interrupting Cold falling raindrops I'm oblivious and I can't forget You were all I had And you burned my earth I'm holding on to ashes Oblivious I just can't let go I'm oblivious and I can't stop the black From blinding me with hatred You saw the woman in me passing Deluded into gaze Hearing you whisper sweet nothings You left a silent rage I'm oblivious and I can't forget You were all I had And you burned my earth I'm holding on to ashes Oblivious I just can't let go I'm oblivious and I can't stop the black From blinding me with hatred What if I burn my own bridges What if I cease to feel This gaping wound of jealousy Is the demon standing before me I'm holding on to ashes And I just can't let go I'm blinded by hatred I'm sickened with love I'm turning oblivious I'm drowning in jealousy I'm blinded by hatred I'm sickened with love

[Bonus Track] Breaking forth You tempt the deepest flood You break forth where no man has set his feet Savage blood plays in your veins Whisper to me in your native voices I thought my eyes were dead to light My heart too still to love My skin too white to be touched I dwell in fear A shadow too vast to cast a shade in your room When you stay near I'm unbreakable My mind is slipping away My visions turning grey Yet I am healing You break through every wall You will always find me If I could get a little braver A little more courageous Then you will make me heal Breaking forth You dive the deepest oceans Force forth where no one has left a mark Savage blood runs through your veins Sing to me in your native music I thought my eyes were blind to light My heart too kind to love My skin too white to be touched I dwell in fear when you are here I'm unbreakable We're unbreakable
