Ceremonious

Staring at the note that reminds me
Sad occasion that still haunts me
Mark the day that you disappeared
Fighting back all of those feelings
Fear of ghosts that would torment me
Spinning slowly as they fade away
Tears in my eyes, fall like rain...
Trapped by the ties that bind us.
Falling victim to confusion
The end getting nearer all the time.
Shadows dance create temptation
Then fade away leave frustration
Your silent face, turns hearts to stone
Frozen in time, all alone….
Every second counts down quickly
Watch them slip away like memories
Was this all how it was before?
In your eyes, I’m lost completely
Sweet regret, it cuts so deeply
Can’t stand on ceremony now.
No love lost, no love at all…
Still staring at the note that reminds me
No turning back, can’t hear all the warnings
Forced to watch until it all fades away...

Primary Voices
04:15

While our black hearts burn...
And the stars fell from her eyes.
Old bones drag like lead...
While my thoughts fuel the fire.
I close my eyes, but still can’t see her...
Fair face I can’t recognize.
Found our passions long since dead
So we threw them on the pyre.
All things must fade
This much is clear
There are no second chances
We lost it all
Dead stars fade
And disappear.
No star burns forever….
now
Faded memories
What once seemed so clear...
Now so many thoughts conflicting
push them all away
Need to focus my intentions...
Push through this veil of tears
Drown out those primary voices
Find the silence that remains
I too must fade
This is my fear
Spent all my second chances...
All hope is gone
I dissipate
And fade away
There’s nothing left of me...
At all.

They Eat Tears
04:52

Hear them crying in the distance
The sound never fades away.
Their pleading, so insistent.
It seems their prayers are in vain.
Bright white halo flashing...
Blood burning in my brain...
Is this the final warning?
A ragged pace we can’t sustain.
Shadows falls with a terrible sound, and you’re -
Falling…
Falling….
You’re left dizzy in its wake and they’re -
Calling...
Calling…
In desperation on hands and knees
Crawling…
Crawling...
Witness their atrocities
They eat tears...
as they fall like rain.
See the fires in the distance
The smoke takes our breath away
The sacrifice of all held holy
And the death of all remaining faith
And we were destined for this fate
Shadows fall and a terrible sound and they’re
Falling…
Falling….
We spin dizzy in its wake and they’re
Calling...
Calling…
Can’t turn back there’s no time left and you’re
Falling…
Falling….
Now you face the consequence
They eat tears...
as they fall like rain
