Peace In Place
I'll change my colors and show myself out I’ll change my colors and show myself out Eyes full of blood and light Why have we built this grave? Fate buried in the dark Just so I'd have something to save Mouth full of blood and light Teeth tear into the sun Fate buried in the dark There is a distance in everyone Inhale my pupils beneath my brow Suffocate On the embalmed petals you leave around Suffocate Look inside, look inside Now confess The final gift Embrace your exit Changе my colors, show myself out Change my colors, show myself out Eyеs full of blood and light Ex-lives like bolts and chains Fate buried in the dark Just so I'd have something to save A field to pace before the noose Matte canvases fake the skies Painted clouds never rain Borrowed places and borrowed time I’ve let the leeches grow Trying to peel myself From mouths that sculpt Provocation Look inside, look inside Now confess The final gift Embrace your exit Change my colors, show myself out Change my colors, show myself out I remember every hand that let go We all bleed, bleed the same Is this our peace in place? Drag us down, drag us down together Is this our peace in place? Now we all bleed the same Is this our peace in place? These hands that drag us down Reclaim our peace in place

Now I quietly reflect In the space you shaped for me I feel the pull of your steps In the shadows you leave behind Will your gaze fall softly upon me? If one moment could be mine Pull back to me To feel your presence one last time Pull back to me If one moment could be mine Pull back to me To feel your presence one last time Go farther, leave me now The weight of loss is on my sidе Stolen spirit Your absence hеavy as the sun Won't you wait just one moment? Won't you wait just one moment? Pull back to me Still longing for Seasons I bowed to the ground Our gardens wilt so sudden In the shadows you left behind In the shadows you left behind If one moment could be mine Pull back to me To feel your presence one last time Pull back to me If one moment could be mine Pull back to me To feel your presence one last time Go farther, leave me now The weight of loss is on my side Stolen spirit Your absence heavy as the sun Won't you wait just one moment? Won't you wait just one moment? Pull back to me Heavy as the sun dissolving the sky I keep you alive Keep you alive Heavy as the scar where my heaven resides I keep you inside Keep you inside

How can I move on and exist within this wreck? It crystallized our minds My voice kills yours Your voice kills mine Foundations gave way Teeth tear into our spines My cuts are yours Your cuts are mine (Haunt me always) Haunt me always The tremors in your wake Like grieving lungs Gasping in their cage (Haunt me always) Haunt me always The embers in your place Like ornaments A monument to fade I walk our landfill Leeching our landscape It petrified our lives My end is yours Your end is mine Raw palms from begging How can I move on Your voice kills mine Your cuts are mine Your end is mine {Chorus} (Haunt me always) Haunt me always The tremors in their wake Like grieving lungs Gasping in their cage (Haunt me always) Haunt me always The embers in your place Like ornaments A monument to fade Another ghost, another song Return the name you never speak Return the name you never speak (Hung by the legs) Another ghost (An ornament) Another song (A monument to fade) Return the name you never speak

Turn back and watch it grow Strengthened from all the lows Turn back and watch it grow It's confidence breaking through the unknown Forcing the body closer to the floor When your final note is played It’s a shame that you'll never know Erased our roles to regain control So now I breathe only when told Tears slowly spread across the floor And now I breathe only when told And now I breathe only when told Spit out words like broken souls The changes breaking through the unknown Tracing the body that I used to own When your final note is playеd It's a shame that you’ll never know Erasеd our roles to regain control So now I breathe only when told Tears slowly spread across the floor And now I breathe only when told It's a light around the rose but it's gone So gone It's a light around the rose but it's gone (It's gone) So gone (So gone) It's a light around the rose but it's gone So gone Erased our roles, regain control And now I breathe only when told And now I breathe only when told Tears slowly spread across the floor And now I breathe only when told And now I breathe only when told And now I breathe only when told And now I breathe only when told

It could be tragic if the whole world Slowly turned to look at you A thousand fates, a thousand faces Showed up to plague us Slow down, the atmosphere's racing Hello, they're waiting Are you selfless or self-destructing? Architects of burden born from something that cannot be They lunge at you, torn limb from limb Terrified, you ask them why Dread found me The call is the curse through every radiant verse In my uncertainty, dread found me I want a different me, I want a different you I wanna know exactly what we built It became a cage Showed up to plague us Don't slow down, the seconds are wasted Hello, they're waiting They lunge at you, torn limb from limb Terrified, you ask them why Dread found me The call is the curse through every radiant verse In insecurity, dread found me The worst of times that thin the skin Now blame your former self, I won't let you in The glow of the muse spills through a memory Our calling is a curse, I want a different me I want a different you I want a different me I want a different you I want a different me

Cold breath, wrecked whispers in the frost My hands, like traitors, let the reins fall Her hiss coils through chambers in my soul Shattering altars, altars of porcelain dreams I praise the fracture of my will I praise (I praise) I plead (I plead) Please don't stop, please don't stop I praise the fracture of my will And it's the last time that I'll ever say It'll be okay I only feel for one thing The life that flows inside of you If I could crawl beneath your skin I'd die afraid of what's inside of you Your eyes, twin pools pouring into mine Seeding a fragile hope within my veins I drag the body through our plague When you drift through the door Your pulse a tomb I can't ignore And all I ask, are you real? Or just another well to drain I only feel for one thing The life that flows inside of you If I could crawl beneath your skin I'd die afraid of what's inside of you Your pulse a tomb It's the last time that I'll ever say it'll be okay The last time that I'll ever say it'll be okay Scarred remains Wounds we labored to mend Twin pools pouring into mine The flood that brought me the end I only feel for one thing The life that flows inside of you If I could crawl beneath your skin I'd die afraid of what's inside of you

I want to be an exploding star The blaze erasing the distance between us Suffocating air Gravity disappears We embrace, we embrace, we embrace In a kiss Our planets are silent and still We burn in the shadows cast by our moons I need to be eternity To stop all the wrath that's created between us Suffocating air Failing light We embrace, we embrace in our death In our death Our planets are silent and still We burn in thе shadows, cast by our moons I can barely hear your name I can barеly, can barely hear your name Our debris will litter the galaxy Our debris will litter the galaxy Another line of tragic lives that didn't lead to where they wanna be Our debris will litter the galaxy Another line of tragic lives that didn't lead to where they wanted to be Our planets are silent and still We burn in the shadows cast by our moons I can barely hear your name I can barely, can barely hear your name

Withering light Inside the skin's domain Concedes for others They never call my name Torn limbs sank deep into a scorching sand Until your hands Pulled me up from the dark There you found me You built us shelter from the storm A tempest subsides My way out is through you My way out is through you Bury our shrine Of weathered blood and bone Rebuild the shining frame While reflections corrode An aftermath We'll claim our own Blooming defiance Where despair had grown Now you clutch me Wе've built a haven out of blood I won't let this slip away My way out is through you All wе were is gone No more dancing like ghosts in the war zone All we were is gone No more dancing like rats through the floodplains No more dancing like steps in a minefield All we were is gone Seed this plague into bitter ground Above the heavens turn black Threatening eyes glare on those below The reflection stares back Above the heavens turn black Threatening eyes glare on those below All we once were is gone

Won't kneel no more For you to simply cut off my head In the name of mercy Can't bow no more These voices are not my own I am the patient son Twist my truth to stone I can feel you But I don't remember you I don't remember you Unwind your hands From around my neck Don't bend no more for you Sever my head for kindness The dirt spills over Fabricated decay Through blinded eyes All I see is waste I can feel you But I don't remember you I don't remember you A sanctuary filled with faces of strangеrs Broken mirrors once whole Now thеy distort me Unwind your hands From around my neck Unwind your hands From around my neck I bend no more I bend no more for you Unwind your hands around my neck I kneel no more for you Unwind your hands around my neck Never again to grind my teeth In the name of kindness Never again to bite my tongue In the name of mercy My past was a blurred photograph A crowded room with nowhere left to move I know now I know now Years anchored in my chest I know now Mistook comfort for love Treading water Learning 'bout myself alone Through the haze, I saw you A lighthouse in the dark We need to land, I thought we vanished, grateful, on my knees Following your scent, following your scent I'm alive I'm alive Offer you my name as the waters churn Offer you my name, oceans fade away When the seasons change Our bonds remain I will be yours if you'll be mine When the seasons change Our bonds remain If you'll be mine When the seasons change Our bonds remain I will be yours if you'll be mine When the seasons change Our bonds remain I will be yours if you'll be mine
