Peacemeal 04:44
Such dulled senses automate every pulse of totality, from the light, to the maw In my hope, I know we’re torn asunder, no trust This weight I’m pulling, I lose it all along the way, from the mines, to the dogs I want it all to rewild, beyond the walls, in-between the wilderness and this heart (shattered) of a broken city, collapsing in on itself I try to put it all back together, without any more tether A fragmented existence, a futile resistance I try to put it all back together, without anymore tether Maimed wings set free what you hide beneath Shattered peace How helplessly it slips away How senselessly they watch you let it die, inside Forced to let it die, inside

Stolen light Big black poisonous cloud It rains in us darkness of a full collapse Slowly suffocating, off-gassing death much worse than what you burn Last vestige paved over A tar that’s blacker than your blood Ain’t it enough? At what point have you taken it all? To what end if the sun’s going out? At what fucking point have you taken it all? Enough, enough, enough, you set it up to fail without a shred of doubt Torn into tatters, it’s come undone, extractive systems stitch by stitch You made this place into a receptacle for your unprocessed grief, of a future you knew wouldn’t come I’d rather not see the end

Motional 04:36
Forging a name Repeatedly Bending into place No palliation Hardly a breath of relief Force fed No longer satiated Spare me the pains of feigning vigor Stuck in the bottom of a well If only water would help us rise Before we suffocate Written off as temporary Time doesn't always heal Feeling trapped inside a waiting room How it all falls away Petal by petal All dried up Fall silent Collected on the floor in heaps Pile up And decorate this near-deathbed A perfect view of the storms rolling through Baring our hearts It's bound to come to you It still feels like I'm waiting Waiting still
