Slow Sour Bleed

Breathe in the smoke, oh

Hide the key, try to sleep

To pause the illusion you're under

Patient beasts show their teeth

Alone in a forest to wander

I lie awake with one eye open

To watch you take your place

Wounds engraved in the fault line

Shadows die in the starlight

Primal rage to sedate lucid memory

Salvation of the undone

Atrocity beyond your dreams

A dogmatic culling your wonder

Surfacing to bleed the leech

Bury a box with me under

Those thoughts are a cold dark place

Conspiratorial towards the human race

Are we men or deserted islands

With origins unknown to define our violence?

I lie awake with one eye open

Wounds engraved in the fault line

Shadows die in the starlight

Primal rage to sedate lucid memory

Salvation of the undone

Salt and ash in the sunrise

Jagged edge in the riptide

Fragile things vanishing in the in-between

Salvation of the undone

Breathe in the smoke

Nothing grows in eternity

Certainty is dead and gone

Indifference is a gift in love and extinction

Humanity is an open wound

Nothing grows in eternity, pain is the answer

Wounds engraved in the fault line

Shadows die in the starlight

Primal rage to sedate lucid memory

Salvation of the undone

Salt and ash in the sunrise

Jagged edge in the riptide

Fragile things vanishing in the in-between

Salvation of the undone

Nothing grows in eternity
