Hide the key, try to sleep
To pause the illusion you're under
Patient beasts show their teeth
You're alone in a forest to wander
I lie awake with one eye open
And watch you take your place
Wounds engraved in the fault line
Shadows die in the starlight
Primal rage to sedate lucid memory
Atrocity beyond your dreams
A dogmatic culling your wonder
Surfacing to bleed the leech
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
Salt and ash in the sunrise
Jagged edge in the riptide
Fragile things vanishing in the in-between
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
Wounds engraved in the fault line
Shadows die in the starlight
Primal rage to sedate lucid memory
Salt and ash in the sunrise
Jagged edge in the riptide
Fragile things vanishing in the in-between
Nothing grows in eternity
