lyrics

I'm drinking my coffee black for it matches my heart
and I'm tasting the flavor of the weak
drink in slowly, magnifying lonely
and I'm longing for something better

This is how I like it black: become completely senseless
taking a pill for some focus
I can hear Jesus calling from a distance
but I'm drowning within the white noise

A cinematic fade to black
You're turning out the lights
how I'm craving attention from breathing bodies
In my delusion she's screaming for more
I can hear sirens tempting me further
for one more kiss, just one more touch

I'm falling to the floor, bruises turning blue to black
the mess runs deep
this is how bodies burn, conclusion to end it all
finding it hard to breath i'm grasping at sunken cheeks
fade to black

The new music coming in 2023.
