Echolalia
05:06
|

Men, like ants,
Run past
The toppling bricks
And the face of wrath
Futile is the work of men
Metal, stone, and words will all bend
On thy knees now
We fall with what we build
On thy knees now
We fall with what we build
Accumulate
Around the base
And count each blessing
Though it seems too late
Fell upon our heads
Our supposed strength
Echolalia in the baby’s breath
Babbling into the belly and fed

La Sorcière
06:05
|

Belladonna burned limb to limb
Thistle thorns pinned to her hips
She turned to ashes
They coughed up black
Can't kill a witch with her pride intact
Oh no
The Devil's daughter
Can take the piss
Jus primae noctis
He said, “let’s just forget
All the pain that is the past”
Three marks on skin scored in red
The scarlet letter lies on her back
Rose from the ashes
They called her name
She is the baroness
Patron saint of shame
Didn’t wish for martyrdom,
Didn’t wish for blame
All the embers, are like flags in the flame

She Cast a Shadow
04:11
|
|||
A spiteful moon obscures her face
From the heavens she devastates
All her wrath, befell their lands
With the softest caress,
Her pale arms stretch into your bed
The roll of the tide,
This lesson of disgrace
She plunges into water
Her shadow engulfs the sea
Oh mother in heaven, whose lap and skin we trace
Along the land where her children disarray

(ii) limbo
03:08
|

I am the vessel that feeds
The starved ghosts I cannot see
Drained of all my feeling
They swallow the sea that is my being
Take everything
I am the bleeding vessel
Flowing from a heart that seethes
My being, it is the vessel

Remains
07:01

Say to pray, I don’t know how
Magic waves stole my boat away
She was so promising
Long halls throwing voices
All around, I’m only saving myself now
Found your bleach stained gown
Under the wood
When I hit the floor it hurt so bad
Shattered mirrors drape the walls
I am the sabreur now
Crawling through the woods
Pacing behind you
Lost in the abyss
Foraging prey
Nipping for heels
Waiting all day
I loved you, all along
But now
You’ve gone and sunk
Way down to the bottom

Discarnate
05:10
|
|||
Restless spirit,
who called your name?
I feel you around me
You’re scattering restless eyes
Bodiless
Beloved
Discarnate
Your heart held a holy sentiment
Show yourself
Dissolve the veil
From the shadows you hide
This time, goodbye

Strange Ways
07:22
|
|||
Do you feel me
Creeping down your street
Slow wheels turning, turning
Maybe we’re dreaming
Sages said we have no reason
Remember the figures on that morning
In the place of mourning
Sick outside your home
In such strange ways
Invoked under the floors
The procession sways
In flowers, I’m wreathed
Bleeding letter soaked in my teeth
Had you found a reason to leave
To leave me
The pyre swells at my feet
I dig my woes up in the blistering heat
I would’ve trusted you if you’d let me
I felt the eyes there in waiting
I cleanse my skin
In the slow white burn
To forget the distrust
How you showed love
In such strange ways

Saturn Devouring His Son

“You know not what you'll plan to do
Son, this is for my own good"
First the head and then the bod’
And half his blood spills down the jaw
Just like your father, just like his before
A gastrolith, a fate restored
