Lyrics from I Am The Ox

LIFELESS BONES

Well I don't want to
I don't want to feed your pride
You're crashing in
Like ashes falling from the sky
In domination
Sitting on a hundred mines
Humbling pride
Sometimes you feel the sensation
Where did you save your momma's care
Digging the ditch fighting the fear
Furled in fire this murdering stare
ridding your world
Time to beware
Well sealing the sins of vicious care
Kneel down to the strife
Make room for a prayer

Well I don't want to seal your fate
I just hope you'll stay and never take away
Everybody's One Life saying
Lost words for falling and praying so alone
Well I know
Like the winds playing these lifeless bones
Well I know
Well I want...I want...I want to take you home
Well I'll go
As you tremble inside the ember
turning tides wise men remember
In the miles of hesitation
Lost time for climbing these sacred stones
Well I know
Like the winds playing these lifeless bones
Well I know
And I want...I want...I want to take you home
And I'll go
I want to go!

RIVERTOWN

Will you believe in people
When on your knees
you break apart
Angels of fire
Settle your desire
Your needs seize and feed and crumble
Right from the start
A stranger loosens the knot
Heartbreaking dreams
It's what you need
When everything is lost
Blue skies of solitude
Don't ever take the mappings of the heart
Stealing lives for merriment of prominence
You all play that part

will you believe in people when you're on your knees?
and everything is lost?
will you still believe?
A stranger loosens the knot

BABY COME ON

I don't speak of revolution
When I got nothing to say
And I don't heed the wisdom from those of a present day
Can you hear those voices calling to you from just outside the door
Pleasure seekers of the current moment have me writhing on the floor
Come on...
Baby come on
In my zone
Come on
And just outside my little window
I see right through to you
I see you on a silent morning
And you got nothing to do
The winds and the glare from the early morning
Blow in another way
Every minute you sit there silent
You waste another day
Baby come on
You're on
Come on
You're on
Oh.....
You toss and you turn in the early morning
And you've got some place to go
Even if you cried like a hundred babies
You still got nothing to show
Sometimes it feels like the world around us
Is going in another way
It's those times I feel the most lonely
That I've got something to say
Baby Come on
You're on
In my zone...you're on

Can you hear those voices calling
Outside the door
Pleasure seekers stealing moments
Writhing on the floor
Outside my little window I see right through to you
Screaming on a silent morning
You go nothing to do

On your soul
Will you break desolations road
Baby Come On...You're on
Storm and glow
Well you still got nothing to show
Baby Come On...You're on
You still got nothing to show
Baby come on

APOCRYPHAL DISGUISE

Well you wonder why

You rise up in life

You take your time to get up inside

Through a million minds

A wound-like apocryphal disguise

You wonder why you're set up for nothing

As the floods run dry

No one's trying

To stand up

You gotta start fighting

SAY GOODBYE

It's been too long

Now reason is a lie

A silent storm to swallow and collide

When we're staring in the void

We walk away

A tangled love of mind

Hold on to say goodbye

Say goodbye

When the world rides on the smothering of desire

Blood sets the stone cracks

Divine hearts left behind

Sometimes the storms you fight

The search becomes the light

Darkness and solitude fading from your site

Hold on...Say goodbye

THE SWEET DISAPPEAR

Sometimes

Raging inside

Minds eye

Swallows the night

As you fall 

Listless rise

The endless begins

Guiding through the pines

Take away....

Well I hope you'll want to swim...again

Like walking on broken limbs

Fading lives blowing against the wind

Tempered highs

The flesh of a worn-out skin

Tear it off

Clapping remorse

Serenade

Dead calm before the storm

How sweet you can disappear

The hourglass

Sheds no tear

How sweet you can disappear

Hold on

No more fear

THREE WITCHES

RID OF WANT

Run away....Faraway

Rid of want

Will you ever be the one to say

You're gonna break away

You want your own way

Rid of want

STUDY FOR BULLFIGHT

You want to feel it but you cannot believe it

You can see it so shattered

You want to take control

So beautiful

You want to hold it but you cannot redeem it

It's your naked soul

In one last hope

You're beautiful

MEMORIES LEFT BEHIND

Warm and cold

You're hungry

Sinking stones brought back to life

Living your dreams

Your dreams alive

Taken by surprise

You're hungry

Like leaves of gold

Memories left behind

You're warm and cold

In the end

It's the best things that you tried

What you're holding on 

Keeping your dreams alive

Warm and cold

You're hungry

FLOWERS IN THE RUINS OF MADNESS

If the stars are floating songs

So far away

In the ruins of madness

A tempest choir

Your fears belong

Two heads seize the ancient wrongs

So far away

A misfit drowns

Gather the flowers

Where you belong

Lyrics from Medusa Pond

Pouring Mud

Looking out the mirror you try to claw your thoughts around. Looking at these mouths of grief you laugh and smile loud, and you’re so proud.  Sitting sands of suffering your thoughts are still astray, a thousand miles of fortitude so shallow your life has made. Sucking life out of all these memories are burning in your brain.  Such a big mistake! You’ve lost your way and now you’re gonna pay.

Middle Man

Striving in the middle, sitting on the fence, and you just know all you’ve been told all over again, again…..And now when you recognize a sacrificial man, you walk away from life above and never take a stand.  Again...again...again...Flying above your own creation, you never make amends, with lives who suffer loss, they’re the ones you’d never lend. And how you love to disappear in clouds that never end. You fake your love and twist your lies all over again...Standing on the river's edge, stepping on the ones before.  Falling. Stalling. You’ll always ask for more and more. But now when you’re so aware, your faults are nothing but a haunting stare. You never lend a helping hand, you never take a stand, you can never love a fellow man. Be a brother, a sister, be together again...again...again.

Time Honored Lips

It’s not for nothing, it’s something. This kiss, time honored lips!  A victory. Beyond. Repeated past-times. A lifetime. Time honored lips!

Genius People

Time is a weapon, sometimes you gotta get out. Your domination is killing my sensation now. You might be genius people, but you’re boring me foul.  I wanna feel it again. San Francisco. Time is a weapon, sometimes you gotta get out! Your domination is killing my sensation now.  Now another corporation will never save this nation. How? You might be genius people, but you’re boring me foul. I wanna feel it again, only right now.

Time Bomb

Crumbling towns. Seeds of fire. Each one wears his suit.  Time bomb singing. Same ol’ story. This cauldrons fruit.  You don’t even seem to care. Delivering seas of youth. A calm wind blowing, noise of silence.  Dog days of truth. And I know what you’ll say. You need me to stay. That you’re seizing the day and I’ll always make it up to you.  I wanna set it free. I’m falling off. Waking on heavens hell. I’m falling off! A man a man a man in emperor's clothes. I hope that one day we’ll let it all go.  Dismembering Minds. Sacred Lives. When I see you on the other side. You’ll always wanna do it all over again...all over again...time bomb...take it away. 

Vaseline Smear

Swimming through the mindless air cultivating timeless fear.  Suffocating golden tears. Your mind abates. Vaseline smear. Maggots choose the right to share.  Landscape. Vanity Fair. Trigger blade. Lovers dare. Skinny sins. Plucked hair. Suckle flesh.  Medusa ponds. Parting oceans. I’ll wait!

Millions of Miles In My Head

I’m a million miles, so faded in my head.  All bodies screaming and rising from the dead.  Such a high notion of blood that you have fed. I want to love you and drink what you can’t bare.  Eyes that place meaning among a naked stare. Oh leave me alone...leave me alone...I’m a million miles, miles from my head.  These hollow muses are holes in a rivers run. And the hidden enemy races with the sun. I need to see you and slice your heavens gun.  As you shed these feelings. Echoes so undone. Leave me alone...leave me alone...leave me alone...i’m a million miles from my head.

Angels Tongue

Wandering days. Invisible nights. Silence befalls. Lightning strikes.  Lifeline mourning, shortened far. Marrow of time. A falling star. Walking along this empty mire.  Rising roads a lone desire. Smothering screams our dreams higher. Ghostly paths riddled in fire. Moon trembles. Words they falter. Bones settle. Colours are blind. Cradle the falling. Strangle the light.  From heaven in the wake of a fight. Angel’s tongue. Binding heartbreak. You gathered the moment to fake. Winds carry our dreaded glory. Like strangers from an ancient story.

I Don’t Even Know What To Say

I don’t even know, know what to say...

Lyrics from Sanctimonium

Running With The Shadows

Oh this is the world. We're lying tonight. We're dancing with shadows in this ghostly light. Between the temples our ages are bridled in sight. As i think of you always. A stranger is the life. Goodbye, goodbye. Oh wonderful, wonderful feelings tonight. And I can't recall the seasons of light. But I'll try to step into the sounds delight. And I'll keep running, oh running, running with the shadows...This absolution. Sacred denial. You will never walk alone. 'Cause your eyes, your eyes, they're nothing like the sun. You want, you want. Set fire and never walk alone...When you need to swim through the dark harboured moons, try to feel it. Only you can paint your temples solitude to keep running. As your mind can pace this moments fortitude, keep running. Keep running, keep running, keep running. With the shadows!

Searing Dominion

Arriving infinite spectrum, Will you follow altered dimensions. Desolation, echoes a womb-eyed cry. Separation, follow the stars disguise. Imagination, dive into the night. Searing Dominion. Rising falls, invisible ages, empty promise, scattered sages, don't blow out this light. Searing Dominion. Arriving infinite spectrum. Will you follow altered dimensions. Desolation, echoes a womb-eyed cry. Searing Dominion. Death is running, fears abated, standing ground, memories faded. Fall into the light. Inside our memories, a world's turning, a tempered seed. Oh kingdom, goodbye. Drown in the love and the light. Power, control. Power, control. Nothing but a shapeless soul. Black-tongue tomb swallows the night. Drown in the love and the light.

Sometimes the Winds Blow Cold

Sometimes, when you ride a void! To compromise, if only you can realize what you decide. Let go! Through seeds of reckoning, you're just a shipwrecked soul, these faceless follies, the winds blow cold. Sometimes, translating eyes, a shot! To live with pride, the tears desire to say goodbye, to blind your cry. Through seeds of reckoning you're just a shipwrecked soul, these faceless follies, the winds blow cold..

Shadow Reprise

Oh this is the world. We're lying tonight. We're dancing with shadows in this ghostly light. Between the temples our ages are bridled in sight. As i think of you always. A stranger is the life. Goodbye, goodbye. Oh wonderful, wonderful feelings tonight. And I can't recall the seasons of light. But I'll try to step into the sounds delight. And I'll keep running, oh running, running with the shadows...the shadows...

Why The World Is The Way It Is

People don't have to tell me why the world is the way it is... Sanctimonium. Labyrinths of sound. A fathomed sea. All that you breathe. Your absence is found. As the hero hungers for more.

A November Day

When you realize, you're falling away. A satellite. A stowaway. When you said goodbye to seize the silent flame. Floating away on a cold rainy day. Away...When you realize, this infinite day. The fear in your eyes. It's time to embrace. To let it all go, as you drift away. To gift a new life on a cold November day.

Invisible Life

When I wanna leave you, our minds fall ashore. As time screams an angel, whose shattered hands against the wall. And then you crawl. Silent dreams. Out the door! As I stand alone I'm sinking. Invidible life, a thundering glow. A sky returns asylum red. Skeletons will dance to shed their soul. Silent dreams. Out the door!

There Comes A Time

If the time were now, where would home be, where would you go?
