Muzzle & Mask
12:16

Strangling, isolating silence
Deafening, unbearable quiet
Knows my name
I wear this mask to face my friends
A fake smile painted like a muzzle
Such languid spirit can never speak
This quiver as hopeless as the weather
My endless worries are tangled wires
Gridlocked with nooses entwined
I gasp for air and drown within
This downpour can never be seen
Tear off the skin that imprisons you
Take off the mask that squalors you
Your true voice lies beneath
Your true self lies beneath
You are not...
You are not alone
A paralysing downpour that cannot be seen
This voice should never be silenced
These feelings should never be ignored
These words can never be unwritten
There is a light at the end of your tunnel
This voice should never be silenced
These feelings should never be ignored
These words can never be unwritten
These memories shall never be erased
You are not alone

Abandonment
12:13

Your beauty is a magnum opus
Whispered only by the tongues of angels
Your eyes are perfect blue
Illuminating your mysterious skin
I couldn't hold on to you
No matter how tightly I grasped
The fear of losing you
Only pushed you further away
I will launch you upon my shoulders
As you journey the forever ether
I still water your flower of neglect
A vow detached and destroyed
You own this abandonment behind your sadistic smile
How could you leave me and just walk away?
No sense of caring
Nothing to say
A rose in a blackened room
You were never the one
I will launch you upon my shoulders
As you journey the forever ether
I still water your flower of neglect
A vow detached and destroyed
I'll hold onto these scars forever
Each one a painful reminder
You left me in eternal silence
Abandoned and left for dust
Take off the mask that squalors you
Take off the mask that squanders you
Your true voice lies beneath
Your true self lies beneath
Take off the mask that silences you

Superb! Crunchy and sweet like those sugar wafer "cookies" I devoured as a kid. But instead of tooth decay and stomach unease, this album perfectly speaks to my soul decay and general unease with this world in the sweetest of ways.
