Phantom Gaze (Trees Keep Secrets)
My disguise
Tucked away
Displacing the screams
The trees kept all of your secrets
Donned in your shame
Roaming the halls, the songs of wailing banshee lamenting
All she could not save
Your resolve and your body wilting day by day
I saw the yellow eyes of a phantom gaze
Ablaze
Your constricting veins
Fear begins to twist their face as a young mind learns to comprehend pain
To lose all control is a choice that you've gained
There is a price:
Every seed you carelessly laid
Blooms into cracks that enfeeble our frame
I'm sorry to say
As you wither away
You left me far too cold to give a fuck
Just a few more drops til a frail heart stops
But it's not my fault
Just a few more drops
Just a few more drops
But it's not enough
And if love is loss I'm already gone
As you emaciate yourself
Self-hate
Count every stone that is cast and double what I receive
I'm guilty
Refugee
Seeking safety in smoldering seas
Passing time in a haven of hazy dreams
Alone on a stage
Muttering mindless soliloquies
Cyclic escape is the end to every story
This I know for I have seen what's lurking at the core
The coward at the core of me
Just a few more drops til a frail heart stops
But it's not my fucking fault
Just a few more drops
Just a few more drops
But it's not enough
Now that love is lost I can't bear to watch
So I emancipate myself
So the halls grow silent
For the specter no longer moans
And the shame once worn now rests in the chest of the one that I met but I'll never know
Nestled betwixt our (trees keep secrets)
Very roots they're hidden (no more screaming)
Family is a forest (trees keep secrets)
Tucked away
Tucked away
Displacing the screams
The trees kept all of your secrets
Donned in your shame
Roaming the halls, the songs of wailing banshee lamenting
All she could not save
Your resolve and your body wilting day by day
I saw the yellow eyes of a phantom gaze
Ablaze
Your constricting veins
Fear begins to twist their face as a young mind learns to comprehend pain
To lose all control is a choice that you've gained
There is a price:
Every seed you carelessly laid
Blooms into cracks that enfeeble our frame
I'm sorry to say
As you wither away
You left me far too cold to give a fuck
Just a few more drops til a frail heart stops
But it's not my fault
Just a few more drops
Just a few more drops
But it's not enough
And if love is loss I'm already gone
As you emaciate yourself
Self-hate
Count every stone that is cast and double what I receive
I'm guilty
Refugee
Seeking safety in smoldering seas
Passing time in a haven of hazy dreams
Alone on a stage
Muttering mindless soliloquies
Cyclic escape is the end to every story
This I know for I have seen what's lurking at the core
The coward at the core of me
Just a few more drops til a frail heart stops
But it's not my fucking fault
Just a few more drops
Just a few more drops
But it's not enough
Now that love is lost I can't bear to watch
So I emancipate myself
So the halls grow silent
For the specter no longer moans
And the shame once worn now rests in the chest of the one that I met but I'll never know
Nestled betwixt our (trees keep secrets)
Very roots they're hidden (no more screaming)
Family is a forest (trees keep secrets)
Tucked away
