Tied to a Dying Animal

Feed what is hungry Let every footstep in the snow melt beneath your boots Warm with blood, saliva, and contemptuous steam Let disdain for others stain the roots Everything rises again Infinity in cycles Cycles that end with the spilled blood of brothers And semen in dead mothers (solo Jon) Feed what is angry Let every tear drop that falls burn and tear chunks from your skin So you can learn to react and think comforting thoughts Force yourself to learn to hold them in I'm only wanting something new Don't blame me if it means the ending of you It's the ending of me too The beautiful, something away. (solo Rory) Know when it’s right to let go.

(solo Jon) Clenched jaw A reason to believe that the future looks bleak Target Each sun that rises above my peak Your sadness not even a distraction Clenched jaw A reason to believe that the future looks bleak Target Each sun that rises above my peak I call you beautiful I'm an animal for your innocence Your sadness, not even a distraction It's just inherent in your beauty A maddening part of my being One I refuse to understand Always wounded by the space Between inner and outer man I lash out (Solo Rory) I do not kill I injure I do not kill I injure I live for the sound of pain I do not kill I injure I do not kill I injure Kept alive by my disdain

This is not the hearth that charred Nyeli Nor the flames of enduring energy I may die with all my flickering This fire belongs to me It dies when I die With my reaction to eternal form And when my wind carries it New foreign lands can be forlorn Sorrow implied Designed for those who rise Every human struggle A smoke cloud for empty skies Where every arm is extended I've cut off a hand My fire, sent to burn the skies Will first burn all the land (Solo Jon) (Solo Rory)

It will be winter soon enough So I prepare my warmth Without the need to prepare my warmth I’d be left with only myself My winter Snowflakes imprinted with messages of death Words explaining why love has failed How my life is veiled by the comfort of others And how every light grows pale (Solo Rory) (Solo Jon) Reasons for the brightness Fear of self, worry for others, diminished hope, desire to escape Consequences of my desire Murder, suffering, more convictions and more love Blood stains the snow The snow will always melt Blood stains the snow The snow will always melt Who will see?

It follows I am the reaction of conscious prey Long hours subdue me with distraction At the end of the day I am prey At the end of the day Dead inside I've stalked mine Missing opportunities Now a person like other people Hunting prey elsewhere This maelstrom, others might call it a mistake I call it fate Some call it energy in all the wrong places As they fall prey (Solo Jon) (Solo Rory) (Solo Jon) (Solo Rory) It follows Manifestations of murderous desires Long hours subdue me with distraction At the end of the day all are prey Mistakes lose their meanings Especially the beautiful ones Not everything needs an answer

Where the most beautiful things are slowly murdered Their memory dies slowest of all Dragged through the mud after the last pain of torture Of legend, that they were ever here at all And their memory dies slowest of all Engrossed in Detached from I'll do anything to survive This chaos This last breath Irrelevant, this legend of lies Irrelevant! For even though their memory takes the longest to fade away Every beautiful thing still dies long before the end of human days (Solo Rory) Where all thoughts are dying embers No one cares what you remember (Solo Jon) Never with an alliance Learn to die in silence Comfortably.

Show me that you trust me Lash out Anything but apathy Show me the beauty in the unsettling If necessary Where all need to be slaves Some pray, some use, some hate Everyone loves Everyone stands above One never overcomes Lose faith in dreams Where flocks of sheep devour the healthy greens Lose faith in dreams Where barren land has devoured all the trees Lose faith in dreams. Lose faith in dreams.

Filthy posterity Descending to the last slimy rung of a wet wooden ladder Dropping into once sanctified wells worldwide And overcoming everything Overtaking every stream Claiming piety Entrancing the feeblest of an impoverished under elite Vengeful spirits with no place to release And an overabundance of seed Overtaking every field The lion never eats straw Children can not lead And nature carries on without flesh or streams The poison entered this well of blood Long before our generation And we are unto death Tied to a dying animal.

It Cycles Bleeding melody as it becomes visible If the eyes watch closely They see the spoiled notes and they are fooled by what they hear This is life for the lesser Every lesson a disguise Dirty little coward Filthy whore And every lie told beats another down Every lie told leads her down Still beautiful, afraid Separate only in name

Prominent cross, high in the air Degradation underneath Who is worthy of love? Prominent cross, clouding the air Penance underneath Who is love worthy of? I'm sorry I held my hand to the flame again To honor that which was taught to me by you, father I'm sorry I held your hand at all Visibility feeds, the lights go out Honorable men go with honorable men In the dark I'm sorry I held my hand to the flame again To honor that which was taught to me by you, father
