Cartesian Diver

Here come the weakest days
Placed before a heart, he hides
Resolve to follow me
I’ll lead you into light, he lied
Some seek to shelter in
The fear that makes us choose a side
It’s just a game to him
While ladders and the snakes, we ride
So all hail, the cartesian diver
That takes us down
Wild words and hands raised
Are hard lives
Bad faith and faint praise
Make long knives
Go home and wait for me
Nothing will remain this day
No need for charity
Something wicked comes our way

The Hook In The House

Maybe it’s all wrong
But I release you now
You were not the one
They say you learn somehow
I just can’t believe
You called me by my name
True, you wanted me
For someone else to blame
I will always
Be your friend
And you’ll know this
At the end
Moving in the wind
You wear the motion well
Kneeling at your feet
You breathe and break the spell
I’ll remember you
If mercy will allow
You were not the one
They say you learn somehow

The Midwitch Rifles
04:07

They chose to stand before it
A cross upon their arm
Gentle in the murderhouse
The souls they kept from harm
To hold a life together
Under candlelight
A different kind of bravery
For the few that would not fight
So breathe
Breathe the air again
Save yourself this time
To see your face again
Once again
And when the blood was over
The hate would follow them
Flowing through the neighborhoods
That won’t be home again
For every word unspoken
And silently condemned
A promise left unbroken
We will remember them

Rain At Tangier
04:15
|
|||
You found a ragged star
And looked beyond the light
Stepped between the doubt and dare
When it took all of you
And everything you knew
To find the home inside despair
Feigned like love
All ghost and hand
They walk away in fear
Lost again
But lingering
A bright rain at Tangier
A moment half undone
You walked a rare divide
It’s not a road that you forget
And when we all succumb
We’ll find another name
For the treasure and the debt

The Weakest Days

Here they come now
The weakest days
Placed before you
A heart he hides
He hides
