The Congregation

Piercing his eyes Scars you cant see Cutting profound Places you dont want to be Climbing a mountain Crossing a sea Behind The struggle has ended Damaged mind Already descended Behind The struggle has ended Damaged mind Acting out striving to make me secure The gutter parts us From the rain up on the hill Tough and alone Perfectly filling His desolate throne Behind The struggle has ended Damaged mind Already descended 2x Behind The struggle has ended Damaged mind Acting out securing me Friendly betrayal Somber delight Treating his tumor Without a fight

On the rise going up First to be alone on the top No delusion in your mind Peripheral vision left behind Somewhere, someone must bow Despair, hidden somehow Somewhere, someone must bow x2 Solid effort underground Undervalue to be found Felt inside something alive Devious Instinct to survive Truly hard to comprehend Still effortless to defend Real compassion Obsoloete Camouflaging Indiscreet Somewhere, someone must bow Despair, hidden somehow Somewhere, someone must bow x4

Build up Teat down Set free Rewind The circle is ending I'm done Pretending Left behind Resist to be reputed Protect The undisputed Behold Your insufficiency Wistfully Behold your demolition Assume There is no ambition None better suited Im hollow None to follow The same Logical notion Conceal Secret emotion Behind resting devotion Steadily In your ocean Hopeful Undistilled Intention Unfulfilled Destroyed to justify To wake up To die My quiet ruin Shatter Fall Never found at all Yet secretly told to rewind Over And over And over again Thats why Even Ruins die

Tie me down If I reach for sunlight Lift me up As I scrape the ground Cut my cord While you see me climbing Let me drop To where I won't be found Stay with me now when I'm falling Drown me when I reach for air Leave me broken While my spirit shatters Unchain me When I drown in shame Blindfold me When I search for an answer Help me see If I've played your game

Walls Keeping me captive Senses Shutting me down Reaching For an emotion Breaching The walls of my town Tempting Simple depression Attempting To save my belief Forceful Sudden rebellion Remorseful Subliminal grief Stay Fight Triumph once more Betray Tonight An end of this war Outcast Bound to surrender Outlasting Those who prevail Feeling Nothing is over Revealing My secret tale

Aggressive mind Sitting alone Lying to find Nobody home The prophet shouts my name out loud He says I'm stranded Within my barricade My life expanded Dangerous tales Make no sense Hurting myself Within my fence

Mindful conscience Baseline is sound Making decisions When I'm around A proud and protected Shape of its own Easily altered When red flags are shown Turning against the inevitable red Confined for what was said Won't sleep in your bed Follow your thread Saturate firmly Elastic raft Balancing steadily Delicate craft Treacherous thoughts Render a hope Parallel tragedy Tightening rope Manual guidance Chosen and pure Manipulating Heads that are sure

In my room Where I lay Demons tend to rise Make your move End it all Cloud of dust Caught in storm You lie there silent Justified In the dark With no worthy eyes Shed a light On your slave Reveal them now to us all Scent of fear Reaching far Cold-blooded tease Shades Overtaking me Craving for release Let us know Where demons are

The increasing resistance The open wounds A paralyzed flock Steadily drowns The incline getting steeper While legs turning numb The quivering surface The unavoidable descent Off the edge I have been thrown Down Vanished All that I've known Down Reaching towards the unknown Revelation yet to come The self is growing stronger The dusk Remains longer Like parasites, they devour Violating the creation The absence of the conscience The shallow congregation

Lower Further I still believe in sunrise Yet I shall walk through the endless fog Stumbling ahead Again around in circles Underneath the skin There's no desire Moon and Sun might rise Behind this curtain of smoke Release your past and guilt The hope will slow you down Forget the tears of joy Walk towards oblivion Hear the resonance Of my steps in the ashes Lower Yet I shall walk Lower All I know Collapsed Vanished Irreversible Burnt in flames of greed and disregard When we couldn't seize The surrounding beauty To the ground we fell We hid and now we crawl

In the devious black Pixel outworn Telling a tale Yet to be born Trusting the desirable Has a cost To stay silent To get lost Now Find out why You did not want it after all Confidence can be A massive fraud Nothing left To applaud Tender emotion Holding your crown Cognitive dissonance Breaking you down
