A R T I F A C T
The silver around your wrist,
The bite behind your kiss,
You turn away,
You obfuscate,
Anathema, (I can’t breathe)
Anathema, (Let me bleed)
Here, in this place,
Makeshift grey over phone lines fade,
The hand around your throat,
The smile, and the choke,
You lose control,
You’re finally home,
Anathema, (I can’t breathe)
Anathema, (Let me bleed)
Here, in this place,
Makeshift grey over phone lines fade,
Here, in this place, I find home.

C O L L A P S E, P A R T 2: I N T E N E B R I S
I followed the path in the wrong direction,
I thought this time would be different,
But I never learn my lesson,
I wanted to kiss your eyelids,
Free of kohl and Egyptian obsession,
I’m sick of the disguise hope wears,
I’m tired of the blood,
You can take it all,
Just let me catch what you’ve got,
I’ve asked a thousand times,
A thousand ways inside my mind...
I’ll stand at the edge of the ocean,
The conversations the same,
But this time the words are left unspoken,
I finally get my fix of hopelessness,
Can’t you tell I’m addicted?
There’s no other explanation for making
the same mistake,
Over and over and over again,
I’m sick of the disguise hope wears,
I’m tired of the blood,
You can take it all,
Just let me catch what you’ve got,
I’ve asked a thousand times,
A thousand ways inside my mind,
But all you do is dance,
So close the door,
Let’s kill the lights but not the glow,
You can leave it all on the cutting room floor,
We’ll make it to the credits,
If we listen to the score,
But all you do is dance around the subject,
So pray for storms, pray for rain,
Pray for anything to wash it away...
So pray for storms, pray for rain,
Pray for anything to wash it away,
You watch as I collapse,
And all you do is...
...and what if the fire is no longer burning?
I wish that I-
But I can’t.
So maybe I’ll stop wishing.
I’m sick of the disguise hope wears,
I’m tired of the blood,
You can take it all,
Just let me catch what you’ve got,
I’ve asked a thousand times,
A thousand ways inside my mind,
But all we do is dance,
So pray for storms, pray for rain,
Pray for anything to wash this away,
You watch as I collapse,
And all you do is dance.

H O M E I S N O T H O M E
I still fail at sleep on my side of the bed,
Even though your ghost is only taking space
up in my head,
And I still wish that I were dead,
That didn’t change when you were here,
And hasn’t changed since you left,
Maybe I’m being dramatic,
But The Fall left me with scars I can’t ignore,
Where there used to be wings,
When I used to have a choice,
But that’s all gone,
Because...
I wanna go home.
So let’s keep talking about it,
You know that words have always worked so
well before,
If I seem a little skeptic,
It’s because I know the score,
It’s because home isn’t home..
So let’s stop walking in circles,
When what we really want is to walk out the door,
You can fight it all you want,
It won’t change a fucking thing,
Because home is not home anymore
I miss California,
But not half as much as I miss us tonight.
