Security

Locked the door and closed the curtains
Prayed it wouldn't find you in your hidden place
Your hideaway
Curled up, you sensed a presence reaching toward you
The risk of discovery hovering over your refuge
Would you ever feel security again
If it were ever-present?
You're alone for now
Or so you thought
What are you frightened of?
Is it really all that bad?
Or are you just afraid that you are all you have?
Your expression, pained and distant
Memories revert to when
We were enslaved to our self-hate
Our eyes are focused on your old secluded little alcove in the corner
We fought a war there
Tides of adversaries closing in
You thought the cause was lost
Until an unexpected ally brought the cycle back to the ebb
A smile brought back to your eyes, you look at me
And i swear that no matter what assails you
I won't leave your side

Your allegiancy breaks until it breathes an endless scene
Every lap here means one
Ride descending air, breathe a golden stair
Wrap around some, wrap around somebody's day
Until it means one (One!)
Your allegiancy wraps around somebody's day
I'll wait another pass through your mirror
'Till you get home, I'll see you there
Lights out four voices climb down your corners
Then you get home, I'll see you there
In a raging scene
I believed to be
Saw the lights were spinning (And i wouldn't have it)
Right out the top (Any other way)
I'll wait another pass through your mirror
'Till you get home, I'll see you there
All out, it's in you: start, crash, incinerate
Then you get home, I'll see you there
So let's wait another one
(One lit lantern, enter matter into pattern)
Dual agency breaks until it means one
Until you get home I'll see
(See lit lanterns, enter matter into pattern)
Dual agency breaks until it means one
I'll wait another pass through your mirror
'Till you get home, I'll see you there unaware
Lights out, four voices climb down your corners
Then you know I'll see you there unaware
All out, it's in you: start, crash, incinerate
Get home, I'll see you there unaware
Wake in the morning to new recording
Then you know I'll see you there unaware
And out in the December winter's night
Appears a friendly face, turn and face
And sometimes
I cannot write to you the words
The words, the words
I cannot write the words

I Meant

Couldn't find the words to make myself clear
Ended up sounding insincere
We're not as perfect as we appeared to be at first glance
I thought you knew me but I was wrong
The novelty hadn't worn off
And I hesitated too long, I missed my first chance
Never mind what I said
I can't find what I meant
There's something 'bout you that I can't place
Something familiar 'bout your face
And I expected our embrace to be so comfortable
But that's the problem with daydreams
Nothing's as simple as it seems
When all it takes is honesty to make a heart go cold
In the safest of havens
Strong emotions laid naked
And we couldnt contain them
Filled the space between our faces
Never mind what I said
I cant find what I meant

filled with emptiness
deep, decadent,
sweet, bittersweet
an intense rush of absence
the Great God dies
the Great God dies again
slow and sudden
glimmering motes permeate enveloping gloom
pinholes in a veil
glimpses of dreams
unfulfilled
the Great God dies
the Great God dies again
