Dark Light

(album: IV - 2022)

Dark light
Shining
Shimmering
Twisted illusions of light
Spinning circles
At the edge of the knife

Suppression is causing depression
Fractured your trust by confession

This house burned to the ground
I can't get out
I can't get away

This is your life ending one second at time
The one-eyed man is king in the kingdom of the blind
I see everything you have left behind

That's all we've got time for
Until we meet again
Conversations painful
The ones that wish you well will give you hell

I start to stutter and stammer I can't get it out
Your love's a cancer and I want to cut it out
You've rusted me
You've broken my bones
You're like a fucking disease I've only read about
You got me down on my knees can't get upset about it
Dark light
Spoken
You won't leave me alone

That's all we've got time for
Until we meet again
Conversations painful
Will find us in the end
In the end

Just varying depths of deception
No one can teach you that lesson

This is your life
And it's flashing here right before your eyes
In the dark light I fought to keep my spine

Now you've got your back against the wall
And you were destined again to fall
Until we meet again
Conversations painful
To those that gave me hell I wish you well
