Glory come and sing Nothing, something, everything Give voice to your weight Bend our brittle frames Listen to the tap tap crack Skeletons like broken backs Glory come and sing Sing to our splintered beat Sing to our murmured hearts Falling into peace and a part Craving you like love a spark Ignite in us a sonic flame Come pluck our dripping veins Build us to your subtle threads Turn us to instruments Let our organs bellow! Bend our brittle frames Sing to our splintered beat Ignite in us a sonic flame Let our organs bellow!

Glory Come And Sing
Guitars strum to heartbeats In time to each tick tock Dying down into a stray sleep Will morning be graced by your presence? There is a flower clawing at a monster Scratches on the bathroom mirror With those pessimistic, optimistic words "Live each day like it's your last" Light poured out of lock picked veins Stealing life's treasures, robbing the bank Look how you have trashed the place Will morning be graced by your presence? A half awake moon lazily kisses you to an early grave Telling you goodnight, sweet dreams pessimist And don't forget the words we never should say "Live each day like it's your last for surely it is"

Goodnight Pessimist
Scattered thoughts on the pavement Brown glass lacing our palms Bruises with a pain, a calm With not a drop of sweat We chose explosion Flash inspiration A generation burnt aspiration Built on a broken foundation Children with pen to sins Writing plans on how to stand But the paper burns up in our hands Angel's Fell, this hell we live in We'll stand without a hint or explanation Broken backs, weighed down with patience With nothing but the disturbance of our laughter Burning your world, lies, love, dynamite but We will, rebuild From fire, from hell Destroy and believe in The smoke of Eden
