Ruin
03:37
|
|||
I'm waiting
for the one that I love
to arrive and gouge out my eyes appropriately
I'm waiting
for the one that I love
to suck the blood from my heart
the marrow from my bones
I'm waiting
for the one that I love
to kill me and I'll die happy and miserably
I'm waiting
for the one that I love
to murder me and send my remains
to my family
Ruin
Ruin
I'm waiting
I'm waiting

Bloodstone Eyes
03:21
|
|||
I look down
feel your stare bleed into my skin
I look down because the eyes reveal
what's within and I might freeze again
draw my eyes like a dark curtain
nothing feels like this
shattered Narcissus
as if any part of me
could touch history
each moment forever follows the last
I'm an echo of the past
within in your bloodstone eyes
they tell me how you feel
mine tell what brought me here
bravery or fear
curtain eyes are sheer

Phantom Limb

you are my phantom limb
I still feel you
you're still a part of me
when I realize you're not
I feel like an amputee

Year One
04:42
|

it keeps raining, isolated in forest park
40 days of dark
sitting on old carpeting
this apartment has no furnishing
step outside the giant spiders
rule the balcony
I listen to the ghosts of this town
examine their misery through song
cutting x's into my skin
I wrestle knives out of your thin hands
throw them off the balcony
to the trees, the land, the coyotes
you held me when I found that she had died
we lay in the darkness
I found a flower on the pavement
I made into forgiveness
Nyquil and alcohol
I put my head through a wall
you smashed yours against the table
broke my phone over my own skull

Ten of Swords
03:57
|

silence is the undoing
the seed that sprouts
overgrown in my mind
the foundation for invention
that's metastasized with time
silence is the undoing
delicate and chaotic
I'd rather sleep than do this waiting
the stillness makes me sick
don't leave me hanging on
and wrangling worry
don't leave me sorry
as a fortune telling ruin
as a fortune telling ruin
as a fortune telling ruin
don't leave me with hard lessons
I'm sick of that kind of learning
don't leave me fragmented
on a broken journey
don't leave me hanging on
and wrangling worry
don't leave me sorry
as a fortune telling ruin
as a fortune telling ruin
as a fortune telling ruin

Ambiguity
04:41
|
|||
we slept in between
the future and a smoking gun
the bullet keeps traveling
it cannot be outrun
with three doors that stood leading
each to the devil's greeting
the desire I'm fighting or reading
will ignite me or kill me
ambiguity
the walls turned into water
the water turned into blood
there's something happening here
that's cause for a flood
ambiguity

Darkswoon Portland, Oregon
"...fierce electronic prowess and shoegaze-inspired guitar textures. As such, the band channels both the detached chill of early Fever Ray and Eurythmics as well as the churning menace of Modern English...both incredibly powerful and irresistibly catchy at once." -- Frank Deserto, Post-Punk.com ... more
