[Spoken Verse]
I do know that for the sympathy of one living being, I would make peace with all. I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other.

Saturn Eyes
06:09

[Chorus]
Summer Haze
I talked to you
This pain you gave me
Illusions too
Saturn Eyes
Devour me too
Black by day
I can’t see you
[Verse 1]
Promised me a better land
Seas, mountains under
Promise of fins that fly
You tried, but you blundered
Took me in and chewed me out
Compost in a dumpster
Left no place for me to hide
Addicted to the scorching
[Pre-chorus]
Eyes
I stared too long
Hurt
I must move on
[Chorus]
Summer Haze
I talked to you
This pain you gave me
Illusions too
Saturn Eyes
Devour me too
Black by day
I can’t see you
[Verse 2]
Now that I’ve grown my wings (myself)
You clipped me down again
I should be free to choose my sins
But you made me choose you again
[Instrumental Solo]
[Chorus]
Summer Haze
I talked to you
This pain you gave me
Illusions too
Saturn Eyes
Devour me too
Black by day
I can’t see you
Summer Haze
I talked to you
This pain you gave me
Illusions too
Saturn Eyes
Devour me too
Black by day
I can’t
I can’t see you

Looking Elsewhere
06:46
|

[Verse1]
I looked for you
Searched you at home
But you were
Gone
Eyes looking elsewhere
Capsule shaped hole in my
Lung
I feared I
I feared I
I feared you
Had found
God.
[Verse2]
I creeped inside
I found you lying on the
Ground
You locked yourself away
Forced its venom in your
Arm
I feared I
I feared I
I feared you
Had found your
God
[Chorus]
Soon your troubles will be over
I feared I lost you for good this time
To the holes in your leg now
The black beaked mask is now upon you
He’s trying to hurry you early
Your blood is in your mouth now
[Verse 3]
Salt stains your face
Kisses on your forehead
But you’ve gone
Cold
Eyes looking elsewhere
It’s pierced a hole in my
Soul
I fear I
I fear I
I fear this last time
There’s no goodbye
[Chorus]
Soon your troubles will be over
I feared I lost you for good this time
To the holes in your leg now
The black beaked mask is now upon you
He’s trying to hurry you early
Your blood is in your mouth now
[Instrumental Solo]
[Chorus]
Now your troubles will be over
I fear I lost you for good this time
To the holes in your leg now
The black beaked mask is now upon you
He’s trying to hurry you early
Your blood is in your mouth now

[Intro - Spoken Verse]
So, you think.
You think, I’m to blame
The root of all evil
Is me.
But did you know?
I have eyes just like yours.
Though my senses fill
Often overwhelmed
[Verse 1]
I found you.
Holding down a fig leaf
In the dark of the sun
I found you
Looking up the tree of life
You wanted to climb
Home
[Verse 2]
I took you in
You took a bite
Of the only fruit you found
Liquid courage
Cloudy eyes
Around you my coil unwound
[Chorus]
Quivering skin
Come to me
My haunt, please
To your knees
Let me pierce you
While he watches
Close your eyes now
You belong to me
[Verse 3]
The taste of your tears
Stayed the same
While you grew
Into your years
Scarlet rotting
Insensitive waist (waste)
Your vapid eyes may
Stay no more.
[Chorus]
Quivering skin
Come to me
My haunt, please
To your knees
Let me pierce you
While he watches
Close your eyes now
You belong to me
[Instrumental]
