You don't want to be the one to save me from myself
And I will not be the one there for you once you've fucked everyone else
Uh
22 weeks how could you delay what was apparent to you
When it was growing
Day by day
Unknowingly loosing time
Come on don't frown, don't live in fear
The one that you must apologise to is the one that isn't here
Now o now dear there comes a time when you come to terms
Of a life deprived from a new born son
Tell me
How can you walk around day by fucking day
Like nothing had happened and you don't have a single
Care in the world
You just hold your head on the highest high x2
Be because of you he will never know his name
He will never have a birthday
Because of you x3
He will not see
See the light of day
Don't lie don't frown don't live in fear for the one you must apologise to is
The one no longer here
Come on don't frown for him or us
This path you've chosen is your own
I will not be there for him

End Season

Casting stones towards shallow pools
The shimmers the ripples the waves this empty grave
Show a person filled with regret
Looking back on me
Though my time is at hand
I want to be something, to be something pure
In hopes that this bastard son
Will someday not be ignored
Iv become so twisted
From the person i was
I skip stones at the shelters
That hold my hopes and dreams
My realisation that the person i was
Wont cease to be
The person who I am and who i'm meant to be
Is separated by his tainted blood in me
They say time is a wonderful thing
Healing the scars that refuse to be seen

Empty Shore

Iv got this terrible feeling
That the boat i'm aboard is about to start sinking
And from loss of limb
I can no longer swim
As the waves crash down on me I remember a time
Where I felt so alive but now I cant deny
As I search for a reason as I sail these seas
Time still passes by but the sea will never claim
Me
Though on the outside i'm still looking in
On this empty vessel as it starts to sink
I'm tied to the mast and at the mast ill stay
Till the day I admit that i'm just afraid
Of roads once paved
But now they look to change
While they wont be built the same
Because the ship will sail again
20 days out to sea now i'm somewhere blistered and beat
The thought of you keeps me on my feet
In hopes that we might meet again
By the shore, by where the waves cave in
And no I never want to be alone again
I will never plant my feet on ground and pretend
That life on shore will ever be for me my friend
Though on the outside i'm still looking in
On this empty vessel as it starts to sink
I'm tied to the mast and at the mast ill stay
Till the day i admit that i'm just afraid
Of roads once paved
But now they look to change
While they wont be built the same
Because the ship will sail again
My sails maybe broken and tattered
But my resolve has never been greater

Still off shore and adrift at sea
Broken bodies still remain to be
Figurative imaginations weep
For the person that i used to be
Maybe one day they will all see
I sold my soul to the dutch man
And now i serve my time
Part of the ship part of the crew
Row row your boat
Hold fast were going fucking overboard
The water cleanses me
Although I hope to be finally free
The tides that change will bury me
Somewhere out at sea
Cast out from the darkness
Cast out within
Want to hear a story
Oh where do I begin
Of a man
Once consumed by hatred
Pathways are unclear
When all I see is fear
Still I hope for substance
When all can be is darkness
Floating on a raft
Made from a future plan
Cast out from the darkness
Cast out within
Now iv told my story
Like to read again?
