I can't help it
When I'm with you I feel so sarcastic
Oh, I get so critical of you
When I'm with you I feel so sarcastic
What comes over me?
I learn from Ocypete

Mother Mary full of grace
Please help me to understand
That when I have a change of pace
I let it go right to my head
The fragrance of my blood
Implies my rank in the eyes of God
I told you I was done
Before that moment when you drew your gun
It’s not safe
You’re not safe
So tell me how you made it here
Virtuous dove, sacrosanct
Try fooling me like I’m a sheep
I see the wolf right through your veil
The fragrance of your blood
Implies your rank in the eyes of God
I told you anyone
Could fray your ruse of Ambrosia
It’s not safe
You’re not safe for me

I’m only gonna say this once
It might not be as green as you think
It’s probably blue
There is no love between us
Only distance

There Will Come
03:15
|

There will come a day
When I will not
Have the time
To make old friends
What will I do?
There will come a day
When I will have to
Say goodbye
To this place
What will I feel?

I took a ride to get out of the city
Down a dark road
Strasse 9080
An apparition in my vision I see
I think I’ll let her in
I can hear the Witte Wieven
Come with me
I can see the Witte Wieven
Spirit me away
Tatters of the mist dancing right above the water
Take a look how we demonize our daughters
Antagonistic or benevolent being
I think you’re beautiful
I can hear the witches breathing
Whisper your spell into my ear
I can see the Witte Wieven
Men can’t make us disappear

Wayward Vessel
04:37

If it is possible
So far as in you
Live peacefully
I reach out my open hand
Yet the birds still fly away from me
I never doubted and I put my trust in you
I must redeem myself
This heavenly love
Should radiate from my face
If I just submit to it
Yet I remain
A wayward vessel
This is deeper than logic can explain
You let me down after I put my trust in you
I must redeem myself

I hope you’ll forgive my
Sudden incoming
Thunderbolt from the blue
As if from nothing
Is there something wrong with my mind?
It feels like I left it behind
See I have this desire
Like a captive animal
My body the cage
Forbidding the hunt
It’s become my compass
But subliminal
And so I surrender
To the criminal
I know you suspect I’m out of line
But I’m being called to something divine
Something divine
Ever since your departure
I am hollow
Hold my head under water
To haunt my nameless home
Is this a delusion I can fight?
Or isn’t it proof that I am alive?
Is there something wrong with my mind?
It feels like I left it behind.
I left it behind.

Saboteur

I’ve gotta say
I never took you for the one to lie
Saboteur, I think
It’s time that we should say goodbye
Cuz I’ve got shit to do
Won’t let a mother fucker hold me back
Follow the golden rule
I wish you well, but we don’t have to interact
Lead me on
Then vanish as swiftly as you arrived
Saboteur, it’s you
Who’s not enough to satisfy me
Cuz I’ve got shit to do
Don’t need your nonsense here to cloud my mind
Follow the golden rule
Don’t hit me up if you’re just gonna waste my time
Cuz I’ve got shit to do
Won’t let a mother fucker hold me back
Follow the golden rule
I wish you well, but we don’t have to interact

I had that dream again
The one with my mouth wide open
From the outside peering in
I see white boats sinking in a sea of red
Why do these same visions keep coming back to me?
Why can’t I resolve the state of my identity?
Once they were blooming
Fangs like flowers just hoping
Once an empty tomb
With flathead nails where my roots should be
Why do these same visions keep coming back to me?
Why can’t I resolve the state of my own vanity?
The state of my own vanity

I Ruminate
04:08
|
|||
I can’t change it
But I have the need
To incubate
My fetal axioms
It starts out so innocently
My fetal axioms
It starts out so innocently
I want to make sense of it
I ruminate
I need to make sense of it
I ruminate
I hear the hum
Of the obvious
My serpentine desire
To absolve myself
Perpetuating loops
Of frustration
Burdensome yet
Irresistible
It starts out so innocently
And irresistible
It starts out so innocently
I want to make sense of it
I ruminate
I need to make sense of it
I ruminate
Perpetuating
