Aphotic Transmissions

The original song lyrics for music from the album Aphotic Transmissions.

Reflections on E.W.

Beautiful words...from a fucked up mind.
For all that it's worth, I could end my life...tonight.
But I would be remiss if I should leave this world.
But you were an obsession...you were my world.
I've carried you ever since I was a child, confused and defiled.
They tore out my innocence but they were wild.
I've seen you in a light bulb,
felt you on the grass,
barefoot on an open spread,
where I've stood waiting...waiting for you.
But God did not deem me worthy of any self respect.
It destroyed my only one true hope and threw it back...at me.
You saw me beaten and broken, I was dead...
and if I would try to end my life, would I fade away?
I've felt you in the life I've lived,
put you in my most obscene acts,
lying naked on a satin bed,
where I've been waiting...waiting for you.

Defiler

This song was featured in OurStage's Minus The Bear 8tracks playlist!

You love the way that I "seem",
but it doesn't matter.
You find the "interesting" in me,
but I don't know why.
I held out on my life for a dream...
and it shattered.
The things I learned were all and in-between,
but they never mattered.
God damned my heart...
and flushed it downward.
He burned my eyes and my tongue...
so I couldn't see or tell you...
that I love you...
that I miss you...
that I'm always beside you.
You love the silly things I say...
but it doesn't matter.
You find the interesting in me,
but I don't know why.
I held out on my life for something else...
and it shattered.
The things I learned were all and in-between,
but they never mattered.
God damned my soul,
and flushed it downward.
He tore out my eyes and my tongue...
so I couldn't see or tell you,
that I love you...
that I miss you...
that I'm always beside you.

The Hurt

I'm sitting here thinking about the times we spent together ... baby
Looking at our pictures, wondering how I fucked up something that answered my wishes
When I'm crying I can almost hear an angel saying I told you so
When I'm lying here all alone, I know that I'm not home
I've spent too much time looking at the neighbors grass,
when I should have been looking at you.
Acting like a child, I always seemed to crack and fuck up all I've wanted.
When I'm crying I can kick myself in the ass and then live alone
When I'm lying here all alone, I should have been home with you...should have been home with you.

Conflicted

Whoa yeah...
No...
A few times I've grown,
many times I died.
Most times I'm alone...
always inside.
And you said we were all alone.
You said we were flawed inside.
You lied and you watched me fall...
you laughed and you locked the door...oh no
A few times I've sold myself,
and a lifetime I've tried to fly.
Many times I've told myself
that this life is an intricate lie.
And you said we were all alone.
You said we were flawed inside.
You lied and you watched us fall...
you laughed and you locked the door ... oh no

Simple and Kind

Two Hearts, mine blind...
simple and kind.
So I thought, before I came into the light...
and it shown, like a thousand suns....
washing every ray upon me.
Washing every ray down.
Pour...Pour...Pour...Pour....
Splendid imaginings,
washing over me...
tracing the very air I breathe.
What's become of me?
Is it instinct?
Or is something that I can't perceive?
Pour...Pour...Pour...Pour...
