Fantasies they frantically mix themselves with subtleties and merge with unobtainable results that aren't sustainable
You never had the chance to see the monster in the mirror she just stood there in denial as he held me from the promised land
That's how you fall into the trap, into the trap
That's how you fall into the trap, into the trap
My guitar strings reek of demon seed, the semen of the evil things he left on all my body parts so his songs could satisfy your hearts.
Anguish mixed with apathy, he's robbed me of my purity, he's penetrating me and then he's putting me to sleep again.
That's how you fall into the trap, into the trap
That's how you fall into the trap, into the trap
My brother had a sister once, she left the room without a cunt, she's locked up in the attic where she's raped and tied up to a chair.
I'm hidden from the public view, fear was always letting you pretend I don't exist til then one day I took control again.
That's how you fall into the trap, into the trap
That's how you fall into the trap, into the trap

It hurts too much to say in present tense
But the love I felt for you was very real
I'm feeling the fragments
Edges of emotions
I'm not quite sure I know how to express.
Nobody knows what's inside of me
Nobody knows what's inside of me
It hurts too much to say
It hurts too much to tell you
I love you<3
As the butterfly emerges from her festering cocoon
She's fluttering around the fallen tree
As the pollen fills the atmosphere
My lungs are getting stuffy
And it feels like I'm forgetting how to breathe
Nobody knows what's inside of me
Nobody knows what's inside of me
It hurts too much to say
It hurts too much to tell you
I love you<3
I hold back my heart and let it beat a little slower
I hold back my heart and let it beat a little slower
I hold back my heart and let it beat a little slower
I hold back my love til it's no more....
I once loved a boy but now he's a man
He said, "be strong for me sweetheart one day your pain will end"
He said, "you're such a special girl"
"You're a beautiful woman"
One day you'll finally learn to love yourself
Nobody knows what's inside of me
Nobody knows what's inside of me
It hurts too much to say
It hurts too much to tell you
I love you<3
Nobody knows what's inside of me....

i can feel the ship toss in the morning,
even though it’s never left its harbor;
all the world’s failed cosmonauts,
paralyzed and drifting off in anger.
you and me, we are the heathens
that they locked outside the sacred chamber--
you stood around and showed your strength
’til i fell in love with a suit of armor.
we’ve got big plans for this world,
it’d be a shame to throw ‘em all away.
on nights like these, when the perfume gets too heady,
and the sky is full of stars like broken glass,
we drive around in search of secret wells by moonlight,
and let the nagging questions go unasked.
we’ve got big plans for this world,
it’d be a shame to throw ‘em all away.

this song
is for the pentagram i carved
when i was drunk
into the top
of my left thigh.
this song
is for a secret that nobody
seems to know,
a secret
that'll make you
come alive.
you dressed in robes,
up against the backlit altar;
a silhouette against
the storm.
the will that's on your face
electrifies the hall,
from the rafters
down to the concrete floors.
so now you claim the
skies above you,
and the earth
you rest your feet upon.
i saw you raise your fist,
defiant, against the heavens.
called him "father"
tall and proud,
for all of us
who were made
to feel unwanted,
writhing out there in the crowd.
now it's dark,
and they're cleaning up the ballroom;
the beast is growling in its sleep.
we stumble dazed
out of the wild abyss,
futures burning
on our cheeks.
so now you claim the
air you take in,
and the breath
reverberating
out of you.
