Love
Lust
I hide
These great impulses
Make me blush
Come
Somewhere alone
Inside our closets
We do touch
Wake up
Say that I want it
Lie to the ones that could give
Say you're in line
I won't believe you
Find no trust
Like some kind of force
This tightening
It makes me rust
I wake up
I say that I want it all
Take up the offer you made
I trust you
Night comes
I run for the door
Know I won't come back for sure
Wake to another morning's news
I secretly wish I knew you

Under new skies
You were hiding
A familiar lie
A youth inviting
Seventeen
Could you be all I need?
Bring me love
And I will bring you kindness
The knives and swords that cut me up
They will piece me back again
Are you one of them?
A shining blade of one-way love
If we commit, could we pretend?
Could I know safety after all?
I'd feel better then
Complete me, I'll come bat for you
The hidden card
Masks the false tone of my words
And though I lied
I adored you
On finding out
The words that open me like knives
Kiss my mouth
So I can taste your fervour
Come find me
Bring me to the light
Forever lost
My fatal flaw
File the edges down
Commit to this, now breathing
Now estranged
I follow suit
Heart now caving in both sides
Burn the evidence
Of this dark path I'm leading
Abusing you to help my mind
I am backed against the wall
I don't love you now
You only were my healing
Now that I find myself back here
I'm reminded what you were
I am sorry now
I only wanted health for you
-
Salient
I commit myself to no one
Impotent
I cannot trust my fears
In the end
We will only break apart
Bury it
I don't need it anyway
I cannot love myself
Banish instinct and respite
I can't convince myself
Why can't I love?
-
And hoping now
I am free
And finding out
If they could love me

A big inspiration on The Dark Third material, and some of our closest friends. Beautifully serene.

An album of immeasurable chaos and beauty. Truly an all-time classic and an album I don't think anyone should go without hearing.
