ONE THE ONLY NUMBER
TO NOTHING WILL THIS COME
THREE DEFEATS OUR PURPOSE
(TAKE ME PLEASE)
FOR EVERYTHING’S UNDONE
I THE EARTH BENEATH YOU
STILL HIGHER THAN THE TREE
DO WOODEN LIES BEQUEATH YOU
WITH SULLEN EYES THEY SEEK
THE BEAST HE WRITHES IN AGONY
BESIDE ME WITHIN ME
A PART OF ME
WE MUST FEEL UNWORTHY
YET TRUST THE HAND THAT FEEDS
TERMINATE THIS HUNGER
AND SOLVE THIS LIFE’S DISEASE
HE MAKES IT EASY TO ATTAIN
WE CAN BE THE JOURNEY
HIGHER CAN WE REACH
EXIST IN DUAL AUTONOMY
PLANT MY DIRT PLANT MY SEED
AND THOUGH I DREAM
WHAT’S LEFT TO SEE
ON FORGOTTEN WAYS ARE WE
AND THOUGH I TREAD
WITH EYES UNSEEN
ON FORGOTTEN WAYS ARE WE
THERE IS NO FURTHERANCE
NO NEED TO REMINISCE
ON FORGOTTEN WAYS ARE WE
WE ARE ENDLESSLY
IT’S HARDER TO REMEMBER
WHAT NEVER WAS
COMFORTING THE COLD AND DAMP
WE CAN BE THE JOURNEY
HIGHER CAN WE REACH
ALL IS LOST LESS YOUR FURTHERANCE
BEGONE ALL SHRED
OF SECOND CHANCE
NO LONGER FAITH PER CHANCE
LOVE IS NO MORE
I WILL BE YOUR OPIUM
HIGHER CAN WE REACH
I WILL BE YOUR OVERDOSE
HIGHER WILL WE REACH
THE BEAST HE DIES WITH DIGNITY
SURROUND ME AMEND ME
DISCOVER ME
KISS THE HAND THAT BLEEDS
AND THOUGH I DREAM
WHAT’S LEFT TO SEE
ON FORGOTTEN WAYS ARE WE
AND THOUGH I TREAD
WITH EYES UNSEEN
ON FORGOTTEN WAYS ARE WE
THERE IS NO FURTHERANCE
NO NEED TO REMINISCE
ON FORGOTTEN WAYS ARE WE

May Her Wrath Be Just

SHE SPEAKS TO ME
I CAN HEAR HER FAINTLY
SHE WHISPERS SHE SCREAMS
A NAME UNSPOKEN
SHE REACHES THROUGH ME
YET THIS IS NO WARM EMBRACE
SHE WHISPERS I SCREAM
UNLEARN THEIR NAME
O MOTHER
DIE FOR YOUR DIGNITY
WE LISTEN WE LISTEN
THEY SCREAM YOUR NAME
AND WHILE YOUR CHILDREN LIVE
THEY TAKE WHAT’S OURS
AS THINE WOULD GIVE
AT LAST WE CAN ASK NO MORE
SHE’S GIVEN ALL SHE CAN NO MORE
I CAN FEEL HER HEARTBEAT
SHE SUFFERS UNWORTHY
OUR FALL FROM GRACE
SHE TEACHETH ME
WE CAN NEVER LEARN THE WAYS
WE SUFFER UNWORTHY
WE OWN OUR BLAME
O FATHER
DIE FOR HER DIGNITY
WE LISTEN WE LISTEN
THEY SCREAM YOUR NAME
AND WHILE YOUR CHILDREN LIVE
THEY TAKE WHAT’S MINE
AS THINE WOULD GIVE
AT LAST WE CAN ASK NO MORE
SHE’S GIVEN ALL SHE CAN NO MORE
MAY HER WRATH BE JUST
MAY HER JUST BE US

TIME DECLINES
DECADENT
REPLENISHMENT
INSIDE
INGESTED FOR ALL TIME
PARASITE PARASITE
GESTICULATE THE TENSIONS
IN YOUR MIND
I’LL GUIDE YOU THROUGH
THE ONCE OBSERVED
TO TWICE ALIGNED
AND IF YOU TRUST ME YOU WILL FIND
AND IF YOU TRUST HIM YOU WILL FIND
YOU MAY LEARN TO UNLEARN
TIME DECLINES
DECADENT
INSIDE
I’LL GUIDE YOU THROUGH
THE ONCE OBSERVED
TO TWICE ALIGNED
PARASITE PARASITE
AND IF YOU TRUST HIM YOU WILL FIND
EVER KNOWING NEVER BLIND
EVER GROWING YOU ARE MINE
YOU ARE MINE YOU ARE MINE
ALL THIS WILL FADE
AS WAS OUR DAY
FOR ALWAYS FOR ALWAYS
AS WAS OUR DAY
AS IS OUR NIGHT AFLAME
DAYS DO NOT APPROACH ME
WEEKS DO NOT APPEAR
MONTHS TURN INTO MONTHS
ANOTHER YEAR HAS DISAPPEARED
ONCE HAS TURNED TO NONE
NOTHING WILL SUFFICE
MANY ARE THE FEW INTENDED
MENDED BY THE GLORY OF HIS LIGHT
MENDED BY THE GLORY OF HIS LIGHT
GLORY OF HIS LIGHT
AND IF YOU TRUST HIM YOU WILL FIND
EVER GROWING NEVER BLIND
EVER GROWING YOU ARE MINE

HERE WE GO AGAIN
CAN THIS HAPPEN TWICE?
THIS CANCER CAN BE PERMANENT
ALIEVE ME OF THIS PLIGHT
AT ONCE I THOUGHT BENIGN
IT GROWS AT VIRUS SPEED
THE END AT HAND MY FIRMAMENT
WILL JUSTIFY MY MEANS
EVERLASTING GLORY
EVERLASTING DREAM
ALL WILL HEAR MY STORY
RECEIVE
FUCK WHAT YOU’VE BEEN TOLD
YOU ARE NOT WELCOME HERE
FORGOTTEN GHOST INFERIOR
DISPELLED AS ONCE FOReTOLD
THIS IS NO RESTING PLACE
I WELCOME YOUR ETERNITY
THE SHAME UPON YOUR FACE
EVERLASTING GLORY
BESTOWING YOUR WISDOM TO ME
EVERLASTING DREAM
DREAM EVERY DREAM TILL IT BE
ALL SHALL HEAR OUR STORY
WE WILL BE FOREVER
FOREVER WILL YOU BE
WE CAN TASTE THE NEVER
I WILL HONOR THEE
CAN YOU HEAR ME
AT ALL

LET’S RIDE THE SKY INFINITE WE RISE
FEAR NO LONGER ENDLESS DREAMS
PATTERNS SOAKED WITHIN ITS SEAMS
TWISTED EYES YET GENTLE FLESH
BREATHE A DREAM UNFETTERED BREATH
LET’S GO INSIDE DEEPER DEEPER
DEEPER YOU MAY FIND
THE LAYERS FADE AWAY
CURSE THE DYING DAY
LET’S GET INSIDE DEEPER DEEPER
DEEPER YOU MAY FIND
LET’S SAY GOODBYE YET SCREAM HELLO
THEY ASKED HOW HIGH WE SAID WE’D GO
IN HIS ESSENCE WE ARE LESS THAN AMEN
FOREVER COLD YET FEEL MY HEAT
AND TO MY BONE THEE BE MY MEAT
IF NOT ALONE THEE BE MY FIX
LEAVE US STAY AMONG US
WE ARE ALONE JUST YOU AND ME
FOR A SHORT TIME SO SHALL WE SEE
LEAVE US STAY AMONG US
LET’S SAY GOODBYE YET SCREAM HELLO
THEY ASKED HOW HIGH WE SAID WE’D GO
IN HIS ESSENCE WE ARE LESS THAN AMEN
TEMPT US WE INVEST THUS
ASSURE US BRING US WORDS TO SING
LEND US PLEASE ACCEPT THUS
THERE’S MORE TO ME
WILL YOU SET ME FREE
WE’VE REACHED OUR GOAL
SO HOLD ON TIGHT
INTO HIS FOLD INHALE THE NIGHT
IN HIS LESSONS BREATHE
HIS ESSENCE AMEN

WE ARE INFINITY DIVINE INSANITY
ENTRUSTED TILL THE END
IGNORE THE FATE OF MEN
I AM WITH YOU AND NOW WE ARE
TEMPTED IN HIS QUEST
ANOTHER VISIONARY GUEST
WE ARE HIS MYSTERY
BEYOND HIS GIFT TO THEE
HALLOW RISE THE FALLEN
HEAR BEYOND HIS CALLING WE CAN BE
FIRE LIGHTS OUR DARKNESS
FIRE IN ME
HIGHER MAY YOUR FIRE BURN IN ME
NEVER QUESTION THIS DIRECTION
ALL YOUR WORLD TO SEE
HE WILL GRANT THEE
I’LL TAKE A LESSER PATH
WHERE CHOSEN FEW BEGAT
ENTRUSTED TILL THE END
INCITE THE HATE OF THEM
THEY ARE NOT YOU AND I WE ARE
VESTED IN OUR HEARTS
A DYING BREATH COMMITS OUR START
WE ARE NO MYSTERY
FOR HIM I GIVE YOU SELFLESSLY
TWO KEYS
HERE BENEATH WE SLEEP
FIRE LIGHTS OUR DARKNESS
FIRE IN ME
HIGHER MAY YOUR FIRE BURN IN ME
NEVER QUESTION THIS DIRECTION
ALL YOUR WORLD TO SEE
OUR TIME NO TIME
DESIRE ALL YOU SEEK
LASTING AND LASTING
LISTEN AS HE SPEAKS
MY SHEOL MY LIMBO
IS WAITING THERE FOR WE
REVEL IN HIS GLORY
STRICKEN TO MY KNEES
REVEL IN HIS GLORY
WE ARE HIS MINISTRY
DIVINE SO DEFINE ME
I PRAISE YOU SHARE THE WINE
MY BREAD IS YOURS AND YOURS DIVINE
THE MORE YOU LIVE THE MORE I DIE
ALL YOUR WORLD DISEASED
I WILL DIE FOR THEE
WE ARE HIS MINISTRY
DIVINE SO DEFINE ME
