lyrics

Shards of moonlight are falling
Rains quench the ground
Goddess dreamlike is calling
Scarred burial mound
Stolen lives coat her fingers
Glyphs as goodbyes
Every bleach-soaked stain lingers
Cenotaphs in the sky

Lay me down in the mud
Flesh and bone disease
Broken and unseen
And if I should never wake
A fossilized mistake
Banished to a place
Devoid of grace and sanctity

Splintered sun dimly dawning
Painting black figurines
Feeding mad hellmouth yawning
Death mask cast in chlorine
Dead flowers in the garden
Clouds of ash drift by
History is forgotten
Never asking why

Lay me down in the mud
Flesh and bone disease
Broken and unseen
And if I should never wake
A fossilized mistake
Banished to a place
Devoid of grace and sanctity

Peril flows through my hand
Unconfined, bleeding sky
Entombed in my own head
Calcified in my mind
All is lost in the end
Pulses bind, intertwined
Towers fall, pierce the sand
Undermined, breaking time

All is lost in the end
Pulses bind, intertwined
Towers fall, pierce the sand
Undermined, breaking time
