The hurt is less painful than trying
I would be lying if I said
The hurt is less painful than leaving
My mind is fleeing time once again
I don’t want to lie no more
I wish you wouldn’t cry anymore
I’ve become a shadow hidden in the dark
Slowly exposing my good side only
When my wounds begin to show
That’s when they’ll finally begin to close
The seeds that I sow
Stitch the seams of that which aren’t yet sewn
As they build up a palace from my past sadness
Uncover whats hidden under the callus
I won't have to lie anymore
This fear will not survive anymore
Lead me out
Out of the dark
All it takes is a spark
A light in the dark

Petrified tears cut like glass in my throat
Held it all in until my eyes capsized
Your words were lifeboats
I drowned in my bath of lies
On the past I'm choking
The pain is all so memorized
Branded with guilt
Shadows approach
The crows form a cloud and collide
The reaper's evoked
The rage is so pressurized
He speaks, but all I see is smoke; his dialogue I despise
I'm all alone; it's me that spoke
Reality's a compromise
I laugh it off with a joke
Paranoia is a spy
Dopamine I try to provoke
My serotonin's in disguise
I wear a reflective cloak
So Medusa's gaze won't paralyze
Inside the fog I search for hope
Will this virus be sterilized?

My broom won't sweep
Unclean it keeps
Here just under six deep
An entity follows me
And keeps me where I'd not be
This wasteland that I've come to know
Fragile lives and broken homes
Fracturing, our hearts indisposed
Drained and weakened, wasted souls
Burdening boughs
We silently testify
I am the noose
Holding the weight of forgotten sons
In this place of beauty
These dreadful memories
The utmost abuse
Clandestine truths

Skeleton Screen Denver, Colorado
Skeleton Screen is a project intended to foster inclusion. While I have my own personal experiences, I feel it is more meaningful to express these experiences through the lens of others' lives. We all experience pain, loss, death, and the depression and anxiety that these things bring. While we all feel these things uniquely, our shared experience brings us together. We are never truly alone. ... more
Skeleton Screen recommends:
Every track on this release is a gem. The balance between the crushing heaviness and beauty on this album is truly inspiring. I can't think of any other record that feels as good as this one tonally.

Time Will Die And Love Will Bury It
by Rolo Tomassi
I have yet to hear a record with such ethereal beauty coupled with such emotional weight as this. I find myself coming back time and again. This is a beautiful journey I feel blessed to experience.

There are simply not enough words to describe how this record has affected me. The gorgeously devastating vitriol of Magus is such a pleasure to enjoy. This is certainly an all-time favorite.
