Burnt Tongues

Look me in the eyes, swallow your pride.
Tell me what you think of me.
Can’t you see all I need is a breath of fresh air
From the bullshit you keep feeding me
I know I’m a suspect as much as a victim
At least I’ve got the balls to admit
After all that I said
After all that I’ve done
I still know I’m this piece of shit

Follow The Water

Can I blame it on you?
I just can’t win

Two years spent wondering through the loneliest of minds
Can’t seem to find a good excuse this time, for me and for this to fall apart
Shall I blame it on myself, or this routine that I’ve been stuck in?

I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve tried to get out of this routine
But it’s holding so tight

I just can’t handle another day of this
I just can’t win

Get me out alive

Oh God, I mean it
These are violent days for you and me
I just can’t handle another day of this routine

Two years spent wondering through the loneliest of minds
I’ve found my excuse this time
Your words are wearing me down
A constant frown upon my back

Follow the water
Drain the lake and bring it back to me

/ Architects, Follow The Water



Bury Your Dead - Dead End Love Song

The weight fills my lungs again
Like a rushing tide, I tried to escape this
I’m at the bottom of the ocean
For you I’ve inhaled water
For this, I gave everything
Just to make you understand

I’m just a shell
Fragments of a dream
Pieces of a broken man
Is what remains of me

I’ve eluded the mouths of a thousand desperate sharks, just to present my flaws
only to be humiliated by what I could not offer you

I’m just a shell
Fragments of a dream
Pieces of a broken man
Is what remains of me

I’m incomplete, incompatible. You don’t have to rub it in.
You sank my self worth.
You were the anchor to a waterlogged vessel and I could never repay the debt I owe
Where would I be without you, pinning me to the ground?

I’ve eluded the mouths of a thousand desperate sharks, just to present my flaws
only to be humiliated by what I could not offer you

This is all for you..

I’m just a shell
A fragment of a dream
Pieces of a broken man
Is what remains of me
