Black Curtains

Say goodbye to everything that you used to hold so sacred in your life
And say hello to the change that can make you age a year inside a day
And here she comes the woman that you never really ever wanted for a wife
But you can sit inside your cage and forget everything that I had to say
And there she stands my lovely creature, there she stands, there she stands with black curtains in her hands
Can't dry my eyes, my lovely creature, not her eyes, they overflowed, don't ask me why
The moon was heavy when the levies finally broke and I lost a life-long friend
The years I wasted when you tasted that your life was finally coming to an end

By Myself

Take it out on me
I'm the only one here
The only one that you see
The only one that you fear
The setting is a play-by-play
Of abuse and hate
No one else could hear me say
That by then it was too late
Out with the old in with the new, I always say
$333.33 can buy you anything when you're scum
And just forget about the ten years spent hating me
And blaming me for being the victim of something you can't believe happened
But that left me torn and bleeding and needing to be helped.
Now I die by myself
Left alone in the mud
Laying here with the filth
The shit, the waste, and the blood
I tried to do my best
I can't do it anymore
I can't get this off of my chest
Sprawled out laying here on the floor
And you wanted things to be different but you can't even try
I have to deal with what you did because like they say "blood is thicker than water"
But luckily for you I never learned how to swim anyways
I'll never be able to dry myself off with you still wrapped around me
And now it feels like blood is coming out of me every time I see you.
Now I die by myself
Left alone in the mud
Laying here with the filth
The shit, the waste, and the blood

The Ocean

Nothing you could do
Nothing you could say
Could ever hope
To take my pain away
The feelings that I feel
The questions that I ask
You can try to hide them
Buried in your mask
The past reflects the present
The time has come at last
For you to figure out
If you can change the past
Nothing you could do
Nothing you could say
I'll wait for the ocean
To carry me away
The lights now are fading
Night has come to rest
Were you all that you could be?
You never were the best
The air is getting chilly
The night doesn't forget
You look at me and say
I deserve what I get
The moon it is a crescent
It looks like yellow glass
It's covered now with clouds
Reflecting off the ash
Nothing you could do
Nothing you could say
I'll wait for the ocean
To carry me away

In My Past

How can I forget the things in my past?
The feelings that I feel can never last
How can I forget the things in my past?
Break apart my heart it is now made of glass
How can I forget the things in my past?
Our love went away in a bright blinding flash
How can I forget the things in my past?
You said my new changes would never last

The Forgotten Wish

I can't see the light at the end of the tunnel
Nothing that I do makes sense anymore
I was told to believe in myself
Now I have all these words, don't know what they're for
I can't try to hide it anymore / I can't try to hide it anymore / I can't try to hide it anymore / I can't try to hide it anymore
Someone help me please
Someone hold me please
Someone help me
Someone help me please
I can't see the light that led me to here
Or any of the lights that can lead me back
I can't hear the words that are coming from my mouth
The facade of the infinite is starting to crack
I can't try to hide it anymore / I can't try to hide it anymore / I can't try to hide it anymore / I can't try to hide it
Someone help me please
Someone hold me please
Someone help me
Someone help me please

Vio\ator Oakland, California
Oakland-based industrial darkwave
Vio\ator recommends:
J Ericson constructed this 9-song album and poured every emotion that he could muster into it. The album is a spiral down into an emotional abyss with no way out. Truly beautiful and heartbreaking.

MARTYR
by Rosegarden Funeral Party
I can't describe the power that this album has. I wish that everything that I listened to packed a fraction of the emotion as this does. Eight songs that will save your life. They saved mine.

“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties.

The End Is the Beginning
by Mirror Of Haze
Perfectly gloomy Norwegian goth/post-punk, anchored by a punchy rhythm section and driven by chiming guitar lines and morose vocals.
