Diamond Hatchet

You were thrown across the sky to mirror diamonds in your eyes,
But you let your body slip.
And while the demons were twisting you felt a pleasure bursting,
So you threw your heart away.
Because all we know isn't what our heart will give us,
So we take what we can get.
When all your life you were waiting for someone to tell you when you lost the diamond eyes.
You were fed upon the ancient silhouettes of thousand long lost lives,
And though your seeds were scattered quickly,
The demons still when digging, to take them to the other side.
Because all we see was dreamt up by the brightest angel,
And yet we burn our heavens down.
When all your life you were looking for somewhere to buy your diamond eyes.
You keep running faster like you got some place to go,
But when you're alone,
You scatter your pieces all across the floor,
Just looking for those diamond lies.
But no more will I hail to the beast,
Because inside they want us to believe that beauty dies at birth.

Crooked Seaside

Deep in the heart of the amazon,
There's a man who just the only woman he ever truly loved.
So he decided, he don't want to live no more.
Then a ghost appeared in front of him,
And it said,
"Don't you know you're the only who can live this life?"
Oh, but his heart was broken, and he went down.
Down by the crooked seaside there's a man who'd like to touch the Heavens with the palm of his hand.
If he'll find it, he don't know.
There's a bird singing in a willow tree,
Who's not afraid of the hunters who shot his brothers to the ground.
Oh, and when their spirits left their bodies,
They Flew High
Why must we keep our souls so low?
When our bodies turn to dust, where will we go?

Gamblin' Man
06:12

There's a man who ended his life about an hour ago.
The moment he died, he gained the other half of his soul.
He didn't ask or think twice,
Before he knew the best part of life,
Is living something you will never fully understand.
Don't you know the devil's laughing at you?
You're just another sheep to be slaughtered,
And you don't bother steppin' out of line.
The moment I stepped out
From the paper thin lining that's been folded around,
I live to know there's so much more than the ink that stained my eyes.
Don't tell me that you're holding the cards.
When I can see you're just another being played in this game.
And I can help you be a gamblin' man.
Just take a fall from a building 18 stories tall.
Don't tell me you lost your way,
When I can see you there's no path bathed in stone.

Hope Incarnate

Somewhere inside you wish to hide the sins of man
And hold it deep beneath your skin
In a place divine can't touch.
It's your destiny to be scattered among the stars and trees.
To be breathed in by the ones you held near.
From the ashes of this broken world I will rise up.
No more fates or broken plans to hold my soul to the ground.
