Track Lyrics

Granite Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Sulfur on your breath

Granite in my chest

You won't ever have to talk about it

You'll never wanna talk about it

Fury too damn late

Reason dislocates

And you'll never have to talk about it

You'll never wanna talk about it

[Chorus]

I was more than just a body in your passenger seat

And you were more than just somebody I was destined to meet

I see you go half-blind when you're looking at me

But I am

Between the secondhand smoke and the glass on the street

You gave me nothing whatsoever but a reason to leave

You say you want mе, but you know I'm not what you need

But I am

[Verse 2]

When you'd sit there acting likе you know me

Acting like you only brought me here to get below me

Never mind the death threats, parting at the door

We'd rather be six feet under than be lonely

And if you had a problem, then you should have told me

'Fore you started getting all aggressive and controlling

You only drink the water when you think it's holy

So keep an eye on the road or we will both be here forever

[Chorus]

I was more than just a body in your passenger seat

And you were more than just somebody I was destined to meet

I see you go half-blind when you're looking at me

But I am

Between the secondhand smoke and the glass on the street

You gave me nothing whatsoever but a reason to leave

You say you want me, but you know I'm not what you need

But I am

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

I was more than just a body in your passenger seat

And you were more than just somebody I was destined to meet

I see you go half-blind when you're looking at me

But I am

Between the second-hand smoke and the glass on the street

You gave me nothing whatsoever but a reason to leave

You say you want me, but you know I'm not what you need

But I am

Aqua Regia Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Well, my love is an animal call

Cutting through the darkness, bouncing off the walls

Between teeth on a broken jaw

Following a blood trail, frothing at the maw

These days I'm a circuit board

Integrated hardware you cannot afford

The perfect start to a perfect war

Putting down the roses picking up the sword

[Refrain]

Aqua regia

[Verse 2]

Well, my past is a holy book

A call from Olympus, ringing off the hook

Between the pain and the way you look

I'm stuck in a time where the mountains shook

And these days I'm a picture frame

Screaming at the sunshine, singing in the rain

Sugar on the blood cells, carbon on the brain

All of Eden's vices running through my veins

[Chorus]

Aqua regia

Oxytocin running in the ether

Silicon ballrooms

Subatomic interactions if it's all good

Gold rush, acid flux

Saturate me, I can't get enough

Cold love, hot blood

Running to your heart when you're thinking of

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]

Oh, when I am done dancing to alarm bells

No wonder my ears are still ringing

And I am done fighting off change

No wonder my arms are still swinging

[Chorus]

Aqua regia

Oxytocin running in the ether

Silicon ballrooms

Subatomic interactions if it's all good

Gold rush, acid flux

Saturate me, I can't get enough

Cold love, hot blood

Running to your heart when you're thinking of

Ascensionism Lyrics

[Intro]

Well, I know what you want from me

You want someone to be

Your reflection, your bitter deception

Setting you free

So you take what you want and leave

[Verse 1]

Who made you like this?

Who encrypted your dark gospel in body language?

Synapses snap back in blissful anguish

Tell me you met me in past lives, past life

Past what might be eating me from the inside, darling

Half algorithm, half deity

Glitches in the code or gaps in a strange dream

Tell me you guessed my future and it mapped onto your fantasy

Turn me into your mannequin and I'll turn you into my puppet queen

[Verse 2]

Won't you come and dance in the dark with me?

Show me what you are, I am desperate to know

Nobody better than the perfect enemy

Digital demons make the night feel heavenly

Make it real

'Cause anything's better than the way I feel right now

I can offer you a blacklit paradise

Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky

[Verse 3]

Lipstick, chemtrails, red flags, pink nails, with

One eye on the door, other eye on a rail

Other other eye following a scarlet trail

And the last few drops from the Holy Grail, now

Rose gold chains, ripped lace, cut glass

Blood stains on the collar means just don't ask

Be the first to the feast

Let's choke on the past and

Take to the broken skies at last

[Bridge]

(Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky)

Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky

[Breakdown]

You're gonna watch me ascend

[Verse 4]

And I know what you want from me

You want the same as me

My redemption, eternal ascension

Setting me free

So I'll take what I want then leave

[Outro]

You make me wish I could disappear, no

You make me wish I could disappear

Are You Really Okay? Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I raised you in the dark

Caught you reading by the sunrise

You wandered from the path

Through the silence of the hillside

[Pre-Chorus 1]

And don't you know

I could see it in you even then?

And don't you know

I was trying to hold back the darkness?

[Chorus]

And are you really okay?

Are you really okay?

[Verse 2]

You woke me up one night

Dripping crimson on the carpet

I saw it in your eyes

Cutting deeper than the scars could run

[Pre-Chorus 2]

And don't you know

I can see it in you even now?

And don't you know?

I want to help you but I don't know how

[Chorus]

And are you really okay? Yeah, yeah

Are you really okay?

[Bridge]

And I

I cannot fix your wounds this time

But I

I don't beliеve you when you tell mе you are fine

[Outro]

Please don't hurt yourself again

Just please don't hurt yourself again, no

Please don't hurt yourself again

Take Me Back to Eden Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I dream in phosphorescence

Bleed through spaces

See you drifting past the fog

But no one told you where to go

We dive through crystal waters

Perfect oceans

But no one told me not to breathe

And now the weightlessness recedes

[Chorus]

My, my, those eyes like fire

I'm a winged insect, you're a funeral pyre

Come now, bite through these wires

I'm a waking hell and thе gods grow tired

Reset my patiеnt violence along both lines of a pathway higher

Grow back your sharpest teeth, you know my desire

[Refrain]

I will travel far beyond the path of reason

Take me back to Eden

[Verse 2]

Well, yeah, I spit blood when I wake up

Sink porcelain stained, choking up brain matter and make-up

Just two days since the mainframe went down and I'm still messed up

Room feels like a meat freezer I dangle in like cold cuts

Missed calls, answer phones from people I just don't trust

Mirror talk, fake love

But I'll take a pound of your flesh before you take a piece of my paystub

White roses, black doves

Godmother, rise up

I need you to see me for what I have become

[Chorus]

My, my, those eyes like fire

I'm a winged insect, you're a funeral pyre

Come now, bite through these wires

I'm a waking hell and the gods grow tired

Reset my patient violence along both lines of a pathway higher

Grow back your sharpest teeth, you know my desire

[Verse 3]

I guess it goes to show, does it not?

That we've no idea what we've got

Until we lose it (Until we lose it, until we lose it)

And no amount of love will keep it around

If we don't choose it (Choose it)

And I don't know what's got its teeth in me

But I'm about to bite back in anger

No amount of self-sought fury

Will bring back the glory of innocence

[Chorus]

My, my, those eyes like fire

I'm a winged insect, you're a funeral pyre

Come now, bite through these wires

I'm a waking hell and the gods grow tired

Reset my patient violence along both lines of a pathway higher

Grow back your sharpest teeth, you know my desire

[Post-Chorus]

When we were made, I know

It was no accident

You know my desire

We were tangled up like branches in a flood

[Refrain]

I have traveled far beyond the path of reason

Take me back to Eden

Euclid Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Just run it back, give me five whole minutes, I am

Thick tar on the inside burning

I've got a ghost in the hallway grinning and a

Heavy head that won't stop turning

If my fate is a bad collision, and if

My mind is an open highway

Give me the twilight two-way vision

Give me one last ride on a sunset sky lane

[Refrain]

Call me when you get the chance

I can feel the walls around me closing in

[Verse 2]

Just running forwards, a life like wires as I

See the past on an empty ceiling

I play along with the life signs anyway but

Hope to God you don't know this feeling

Yet in reverse you are all my symmetry

A parallel I would lay my life on

So if your wings won't find you heaven

I will bring it down like an ancient bygone

[Refrain]

Call me when you have the time

I just need to leave this part of me behind

[Verse 3]

Do you remember me

When the rain gathers?

And do you still believe

That nothing else matters?

For me

It's still the autumn leaves

These ancient canopies

That we used to lay beneath

No, by now

The night belongs to you

This bough has broken through

I must be someone new

[Bridge]

No, for me (Just run it back, give me five whole minutes, I am)

(Thick tar on the inside burning) It's still the autumn leaves

(I've got a ghost in the hallway grinning and a)

(Heavy head that won't stop turning) These ancient canopies

(If my fate is a bad collision and)

(If my mind is an open highway) We used to lay beneath

(Give me the twilight two-way vision)

(Give me one last ride on a sunset sky lane) No, by now

(Just running forwards, a life like wires as I)

(See the past on an empty ceiling) The night belongs to you

(I play along with the life signs anyway but)

(Hope to God you don't know this feeling) This bough has broken through

(Yet in reverse you are all my symmetry)

(A parallel I would lay my life on) I must be someone new

(So if your wings won't find you heaven)

(I will bring it down like an ancient bygone)

[Outro]

The whites of your eyes

Turn black in the lowlight

In turning divine

We tangle endlessly

Like lovers entwined

I know for the last time

You will not be mine

So give me the night, the night, the night
