lyrics

Your legs are crushing my
collar bone
My neck is too acute
to see it

When I first awoke
(The smoke was choking me alive)
And I remembered how the hunger never left me all this time
(Push Earth away)
Un-captivated skull
(and vertebrae)
are light
(in wind)

From the tallest post
(Clear view of shell-deep buried eyes)
One thought of fighting but the ordinary never seem to thrive
(The last I’d lay)
Hot clouds were reaching up
(so fly away)
to walls
(man made)

Sky’s lights in
Eggs hung by
Steel trees on
Fake stone pyres

Ten steps to go
This ground stays cold
When will I know
Where small birds go?

Your eyes are dead like fire
around me

Bloodless arches loomed
(Evading everything I knew)
Here all the shrieking made it hard to feel my path was catered to
(First prey I’d seen)
Down from my perching rest
(a desperate fray)
(filled cries)
with pain

Clattering around
(The strangest things that sights allow)
Would empty life out from my eyes in steady streams of rotting fowls
(Now fear’s awake)
I cannot plan ahead
(I never knew)
that time
(would end)

Sky’s lights like
eggs hang on
tall trees that
fade away

Ten breaths to go
This ground stays cold
soon I will know
where small birds go

I could be a monster
I could let it falter
Hollow offers
Serve a better cause or
Let them live as fodder
Give in to perdition
No more noble missions
Thoughts can never
Build a better world for
Me or you

Your eyes are dead like fire around me
