falling down in sand oh wait that's not my hand the colors on this beach they're all reminding me that none of this is real none of this is real none of this is real its not real the smoke it hides my face so many things I want to say but then it disappears and i don't know how i got here cuz none of this is real none of this is real none of this is real its not real all the times i've tried all the times i've died all the times i've cried only to wake up none of this is real

Goilem 07:06
i made you with my very own hands and that was when our life began shapeless now you belong to me filling the spaces where he used to be and you will move how i ask you to move and you will sing though you cannot speak when all else fails me you will be true you'll always come back to me the only thing i ask of you is that you'll always belong to me is that you'll always belong to me is that you'll always belong to me goilem goilem goilem i will always be true through time and space when all hope is lost i will heed your call i will always be true through time and space when all hope is lost i will heed your call i will heed your call i will heed your call i will heed your call

Black Oil 04:29
it spreads across my eye it's black and it doesn't lie it never tells me why i hear it in my sleep it keeps on haunting me and i am never free i can't break free I can't break free it possesses me it breaks the best of me it plagues me endlessly this infernal disease this infernal disease this infernal disease this infernal disease this infernal disease it breaks the best of me it breaks the best of me it breaks the best of me

Silent Howl 04:38
sleep fly breathe die deep eyes screams cries you can't protect me now here in the darkness i hear the silent howl i hear the silent howl now now silent howl silent howl silent howl you can't protect me you can't protect me

Blood Meal 06:54
waking up in that unusual spell this body isn't mine my conscience bids farewell i thirst and i'm on fire this is all i can feel caging the beast inside me til my first blood meal blood meal blood meal blood meal and the monster in you becomes the monster in me no life is too precious and that's all i can see i thirst and i'm on fire flee from the light i thirst and i'm on fire flee from the light i thirst and i'm on fire flee from the light i thirst and i'm on fire flee from the light til my first blood meal til my first blood meal til my first blood meal til my first blood meal

i dream in black and white and every night i die i bleed in technicolor when i open my third eye fold back the darkness and expose the light feed your fear and disappear into the black of night so many wires so many lies deep in the blackness empty with sadness i am the nightmare that you keep tucked under your bed while you sleep so many wires so many lies deep in the blackness empty with sadness let me breach the walls of your thought crime let me be your nightmare of all time so many wires and so many lies deep in the blackness empty with sadness so many wires and so many lies deep in the blackness empty with sadness
7.
she begs to play in the dark beseeching will and malcontent where i can abide i would rather hide she, the silent breath follows the endless night shying away from death she is the opposite of light she takes you while you sleep dragging you down below the deep wide awake but frozen still she moves in for the kill she moves in for the kill she slithers without a sound there’s no sanctuary to be found her face is dark but her eyes are all you see before you die she takes you while you sleep drags you down below the ocean deep wide awake but frozen still she moves in for the kill she moves in for the kill i can’t shut my eyes not awake and not asleep she is waiting for me below the ocean deep
8.
The Sandman 04:29
all i’ve held in these empty hands is the blood of those i’ve had across timeless and sacred lands bargain with the sandman bargain with the sandman once i opened my eyes, i wept these freedoms gained and lost knew i shouldn’t have slept kept my eyes on the sandman (in my nightmare, i will find you) bargain with the sandman (in my nightmare, i will find you) kept my eyes on the sandman bargain with the sandman kept my eyes on the sandman i’m falling fast and wide awake i’ll dream to dream life this feeling i’ll never shake put my faith in the sandman i’ll dream to dream life this feeling i'll never shake put my faith in the sandman dream to dream life put my faith in the sandman
9.
Treetops 04:38
come to me and you will see all the promises i said i’d keep but you said fuck you i can see right through the treetops there is pain in my brain and all that could have been is nothing but a stain but you said fuck you i can see right through the treetops i don’t fucking care i don’t fucking care i don’t fucking care i can see through the treetops
10.
My Succubus 06:54
my forever dream sealed with a righteous kiss my succubus my nightmare wish blood and bone the cold frigid night black and red mixed in with the light severed lifelines and burnt offerings let’s play the game of suffering and shame stain the altar with the blood of saints my favorite sin and all your restraint broken bottles all over the floor i can’t take this anymore
