St. Solis

You said you let it go, all buried and dead
You emptied out your heart
Never let a thought in your head
That opens up the scars
The memories are all that inspire
Severs to your ties
But now the shine is in your eyes
And now I'm leering at your lies

Would say it's for the best, but you don't know better
No patience left to test, these souls need a setter

And there it is
Forget your ill-gotten gains
To see that this is what you missed
Bigger than any one thing that you could suffer
You try to cover, but it continues to stain
No matter what, this blot won't ever fade away

Divide the faith from fear, and what do I find
But fuel for something more?
In the spite of all that was deemed
As worth the silent war
A reverie, a face for the fact
That fate was never kind
But when the Sun is come to rise
It's only me you'll recognize

Stood in the vantablack, with nary a martyr
Just try and take it back, I'll only fight harder

And could it be
That in the crumbling quakes
You'll try to see, through the debris
And make a mountain to mull upon your ire?
While under fire, you carve your own feet of clay
No matter what, your c'est la vie ['s] naïveté

Here we go

Prolonged in tomorrow's strain
Upon this coat righteous, I wear it tattered, oh
I show my hand, and you make of me an enemy
To say no more of what was your latter
Endowed in anomaly
But no, I was never how you thought I'd be
I know what you're like
I still hold it tight
Alas, we'll be there in time
(Now come and bring it to light)

And there it is
Beget the worthwhile wane
Where I desist, so long ago
To purge the pleasure from pain
And through the weather, to fly forever
I make the board mine to break
No matter what, this rook was never meant for play
And so it is
Eclipsing all that you were
From the abyss, you let it out
On that you'll sit there to stir
And in the quiet, you can't deride it
Among your wastrel decay
No matter what, what matters now is mine to say

The loom of thought entwined within your heart
Threads through the væin and the damned
Conjoined at the hands
And it winds
And it weaves
All it binds
All it bleeds
Now
