all my children are demons all my lovers are heathens
we live in sinful freedom in our home south of Eden
where we feed off your goodness and the cheer of the season
and convert it to venom and subject it to reason
I was told I was wrong I was told to repent
I looked hard for the light and ended up feeling spent
so I’ve drowned out those voices
haven’t hindered my choices
and the spirit rejoices and draws me right into the dark
and the flames below don’t really seem to burn
have they charred me? will they scar me?
and the flames below don’t really seem to burn
have they charred me? will they scar me? will they set me free?
i had tuned out the portent, misinterpreted omens
my auspicious suspicions and the rumors unspoken
left me hapless and hopeless, I felt like an imposter
cause in poison there’s power I’d rather feel like a monster
I was told I was wrong
I was told to repent
I looked hard for the light
ended up feeling spent
so I’ve drowned out those voices
haven’t hindered my choices
and the spirit rejoices and draws me right into the dark
and the flames below don’t really seem to burn
have they charred me? will they scar me?
and the flames below don’t really seem to burn
have they charred me? will they scar me? will they set me free?
Tempter, thief, oh wicked one
prince of power in the air
fallen angel from the sky
and the flames below don’t really seem to burn
have they charred me? will they scar me?
and the flames below don’t really seem to burn
have they charred me? will they scar me? will they set me free?

Skyline

I used to walk these streets to clear my head
got lost in the views
but now the sights and sounds remind me of
the things we used to do
It’s hard to let you go
you left me all these clues
I’ve turned this bustling city to a shrine
I can’t help wandering through
A month or so goes by without you here
I’m playing on a cruise
I take my break alone up on the deck
don’t want to schmooze and booze
The others meet new friends and lovers
but I’m too weak to start anew
The skyline flickers like candles
placed upon a tomb

you drift to sleep in my embrace
and leave me here to contemplate
why what I once wanted fills me with unease
I remember just 1 year ago
laying by you thrilled me so
I was entranced by your touch
hearing your voice made me blush
could this be all there is?
a steady thud between the ribs
how come a life of routines
keeps me awake but lulls you to sleep?
I toss and turn, I think it through
how what I feel is unfair to you
you look so peaceful, you've done no wrong
while there's no reason why I shouldn't stay
a force unknown pulls me away
away from the comfort of you
away from the life I've been told to pursue
should this be this is all there is?
settling down, raising kids
how come a life of routines
keeps me awake but lulls you to sleep?

if you’re looking for freedom
well you won’t find that here
doesn’t help to be patient
or to recoil in fear
the dazzling lights you came here for
they always beam down on you
and when their glare is blinding
just squint and keep pushing through
keep pushing through
it’s all on you
and don’t look back, don’t look back
just keep pushing through
If you’re looking for freedom
well you won’t find that here
doesn’t help to be patient
or to recoil in fear
you gotta take what you want
cause no one’s gonna hand it to you
you can see it in the distance
just squint and keep pushing through
keep pushing through
it’s all on you
and don’t look back, don’t look back
just keep pushing through
when you feel it couldn’t get worse, stay your course
you know what you came to do, just push on through
keep pushing through
it’s all on you
and don’t look back, don’t look back
just keep pushing through
