you pray
you pray you’re not alone
your soul needs sunlight, hey
you pray, you cut your arm.
the blood!
(you assume that i would leave you
behind)
I ———-
I —-
this soul, you are my own; to know.
this soul, you carve your arm; to know my blood
~
drowning, i’m too far from the shore
barely alive to embrace the light for you.
(you pray you’re not alone)
i’m hanging on to holding on.
(your soul needs sunlight)

(you) had to know you’d lose your mind
(the) last to show, first to fight
left alone (to) tour your mind
had to know what i’d find
~
i lay down - HIGH
broke in two - EYE
~
(the) path below - realigned
mine to grow ~they say this on high~
please be slow, death defy / breath defined
now you know ~soon it will be you~
~
i lay down - HIGH
broke in two - EYE
eyes break through - FLY
i made you - MINE
~
where do we go from here?
to my home?
i’ve been turned ‘round
might fall over
where do we go? far
to my home?
i been turned round, i been too low
where did we go wrong, i been too long
i’ve been turned away
where is my way?
~
i lay down - HIGH
broke in two - EYE
eyes break through - FLY
i made you - MINE

it’s too late to lose your mind
it’s the path i will choose tonight.
you say i’m too grown, i know.
the way i’m supposed to show…
~
the way, the light that finds -
your way goodbye to zion
~
it’s the way i misuse the vine
it’s the heart i will choose (to) divide
you find your soul decided to lose
the way i will lose my mind
~
the way, the light that finds -
your way goodbye to zion -
~
hide away and i will find you,
either way it ends in fire.

the giant's awake
03:44

you die, you wait to know (the) divine
you wind your way throughout your mind
angels betray below the fire
~this is not the way!
i don’t mind
~this is not the way
but i’m to wait!
you and i, we can divide
you and i became divine
you deny with your own eye
soon divine, we can live on high
down below

the question
02:50
|
|||
you say “don’t lose your mind”
what’s left to spare?
cut out what’s dead inside and leave me here.
(you) say you won’t deny, would that be fair?
say you won’t tonight and i will be…
alone, you wait and hide, out of despair.
alone you wait inside. will i be there?
~
what do you want to know?
~
a ghost who walks inside forever be damned.
this place your soul resides, inside we stand
the dark you can deny, but i am still here.
your hand it clenches mine, at me you stare.
~
where do you want to go?
