Black Sails in the Sunset lyrics

Welcome the whole new pain and take comfort in what you've become.
I waved as I passed myself along the way.
I have arrived so unashamed but my reflection no longer seems the same.
It seems much dimmer now... it seems so dim. Just stumble and fall into a world that's over crowded.
And you will find me. Won't recognize me; and I won't recognize myself.

Through our bleeding, we are one.
Through the darkness breaks the light.
Through the light unending pain.
Deify the wretched ones till the darkness comes again.

Open my eyes as I submerge and I won't deny what I've been since birth.
I'll die drowned by your standards.
Breathe in the life of the summmer's death as the orange and red breathe their first breath,
so welcome as they're burning through. We all begin to burn.
Autumn's flame dance's in my eyes Set alight for all we've learned.

I've been dreaming. I was lucid. I was dreaming blood was seeping from my pores.
Who'd believe that it was all my own decision?
Cracked faces and medicated smiles.
Set fire to my home before I turned and walked back in.
For even needle open my chest and insert ten pins.
I just anticipate what awaits when I awake... break.
I die in my daydreams. The gardens have all been overgrown.

They're coming 'round again. I've returned and they've been waiting.
Their aged offererings received and returned, passed through wet eyes.
I tremble as I feel them rolling in for, my sins, the old ghosts know.
So chilling as I feel them mourn within my soul. As the mourning grows.
Unfold before me. Turn back the page again.
Twenty four hours spent wishing that the day was never ending.

What went down on the side of the road? What I saw at the edge of the
sea.
Only those elements time cannot wear, and they follow. What seeped out
throught the cracks in time, what sucks out the color in me? What awaits
beyond infinity? Beyond and to all time I stand. What blew in with the
great gale? What weighed down the falling leaves? What came forth from

Let's admire the pattern forming. Murderous filigree.
I'm caught in the twisting of the vine.
Go ascend with ivy, climbing.
Ignore and leave for me the headstone crumbling behind. I can't help my laughter as she cries.
My soul brings tears to angelic eyes.
Let's amend the classic story, close it so beautifully, I'll let animosity unwind.

I know... It's here we retreat, for where else could we go?
To great disbelief there is somewhere we belong.
In negative space supposed flaws go unseen, but our strength is shown.
In darkness together we're bringing the light. In darkness together we are forming.
The fire tomorrow is born of the night, in darkness together we ignite.
From all we've been shunned but we found a new home.

hung in your room, swaying, hoping only that you'll see.

all by myself, i'm alone in such poor company.

the deeper i think, the deeper i seem to sink.

i can't stop the insects that are feeding,
pull the needles from beneath my skin.

i broke myself, shattered, tied a bow around every piece.

you'll love the eyes. have they always shone so vacantly?

No haven now as I watch it pour from everywhere.
Just like the storm that has come out of thin air.
Gentle caresses, just as paper thin -frail and only- lack the strength to hold.
What if could go to sleep for days, would you count the hours,
or would your restlessness consume fading memories of me?
Fall into open arms that offer their protection.
Quick to deny that their open to deceit.

what went down on the side of the road?
what i saw at the edge of the see.
only those elements time cannot wear, and they follow.
what seeped out throught the cracks in time,
what sucks out the color in me?
what awaits beyond infinity?
beyond and to all time i stand what blew in with the great gale?
what weighed down the falling leaves?
what came forth from the remains?

[To the wounded:]
I have seen the self image they've forced you to reduce to shattered glass,
with the only remaining value lying in its jagged edges.
But the few who warrant waking for await their recognition.
No fear of death but with fear of life, your weakness kills everyone.
So live. Angels for everyone. For no lack of searching I can't seem to find one.

An invitation, excluding no one. So walk right in and destroy the fucking place.
You've lost your right to be part of my family. The family that welcomed you.
You joined and left in disgrace. Your flag was flaming before it ever started flying.
Your flag was burning, burning down everyone in true salute. Sense of commitment.
A sense of pride. I heard you say that we shared a destiny.

I... I came here by day, but I left here in darkness
And found you, found you on the way
And now, it is silver and silent, it is silver and cold
You, in somber resplendence, I hold

Your sins into me
Oh, my beautiful one
Your sins into me
As a rapturous voice escapes, I will tremble a prayer
And I'll beg for forgiveness
(Your sins into me) Your sins into...

Lean against the night and laugh as I try to scale the walls.
Ingnored futility fills the air. You're only there to watch me fall...
If only pure sweetness was offered, why's this bitter taste left in my mouth?
If I could catch my breath just to exhale, I'd know that I held it in to long...
From above comes a faint smile, a new vantage such a view. Familiarity know disowned.

Now! Peel the skin back from the flesh.

Steal the flesh back from the starving static minds.

From nature we must stray, to clarity we'll climb.

Deadly impulse seems so natural,
just look beyond it and we'll find (we will find)

a brand new evolution, here begins a brand new line.

And in the distance there's a gathering,

that no longer seems so far away.
