EMDR (Bonus Track)

(album: IMPERIAL - 2021)

Trying not to intervene
Keep it on my own
You have me in your power
Like you never did before
Once I told myself anything goes
Never did anything right
Despite the nature of desire
Always finds a way

Hide behind a rueful face
Thank you all for fine charades
Praise the little things I wanted
All I wanted was to rest
Rest in knowing all demons are real
Taste their sweet lips, seal the deal
And heal, my iris is on fire
I curse my firm belief

Eyes of a dark, dense mind
I'm feasting on what you feed me
I stand before no one
Cry, my love, I'm leading you all the way

Swimming in a sea of guilt
Drained of energy or blood
Praise the little things I'm here for
In the distance, on demand
Once my fungus takes care of your soul
Turns it to nutritious soil
Behold how the nature of desire
Always finds a way

I let you see my greedy face
Let you witness all my shades
Pray that no one's here to see me
Like you never prayed before
I rest in knowing my demons are real
I taste their sweet lips, seal the deal
And heal, the nature of desire
My fluids, pores, and faith

From the mire
Through the wonders of your soul
A desire
"Wait a second", I've been told
(I have seen too much of it
I have seen too much of it)
Parasites
(I have seen too much of it)
Infected wounds
Broken skulls
(I have seen too much of it)
Tissue, divided in two

Eyes of a dark, dense mind
I'm feasting on what you feed me
I stand before no one
Cry, my love, I'm leading you all the way

See, my love? I take a stand for my beliefs
I'm leading you all the way
Stronger love found within, take my fire
I'm leading you all the way
Cry, my love, I'll comfort you, I'll kill the ghosts
I'm leading you all the way
Paint the walls, let me go, fight the pain
I'm leading you all the way
See my dreams outside my dreams, no more sleep
I'm leading you all the way
Turn around, find me there, sweet perfume
I'm leading you all the way
On my own, I'm here alone, just me and you
I'm leading you all the way
I found the peace, a quiet room, comfortable doom
I'm leading you all the way
I'm leading you all the way
I'm leading you all the way
