Knives Gleam

When I woke
I washed the blood from out of my mouth
I could taste the salt of Youth inside my lungs
And I've got more love than
You've got maps made of your veins
We've gone so far
but you said No
The gleam of knives
Through jealous wires
I crept inside
I made my way through all the cracks in your skin
I made your tin heart sweat blood again
We count from five and jump right off that window ledge
We've come so far but you said No
I fell into the blackest light (I could feel it fold me)
I was built brand new
We could all be saints tonight
If we see this through
So this is what you want?
...this is what you wanted?
Angel descend
Our eyes are all searchlights
We laid still
While God slept
What's worse?
Poison or the Truth?
We stand far from what we are
We Know we're lost in the snow
Our tongues have froze to these lampposts
Who will here these words like we intended?
Who will hear this verse if we meant it now?

Architect v.s Archetype

My veins froze
And frost covered the vine
Reaching for the Sun
Reaching for the Light
When will I learn to let it all shine in?
Don't answer the phone it's a ghost!
Death lusts after me
They take pictures of us through the tv screen
They creep and they crawl into our dreams
Everything that I once believed
Seems obscene to me
My blood
My cells
My own body
I am Light
I make Sound
I live in the widths of your breath
I change myself
with all the kisses I saved up
to fend off the smokestacks that follow us
every scar, every paper cut
The grey sky has never seemed so clear
(all my friends line the boulevard)
Every leaf on the tree is a mirror
(oh my heart)
We will win this war we've started
We will find a cure
We're starving
