lyrics

If nightmares that filled the sky
were lightning, thunder desire.
This old house would have burned down a long time ago.
Your true nature seizes you.

Our language fails to express
the sensation of emptiness.
Is it lust or the power to possess you?
Crooked shadows climb the walls like vines.

I'd prefer to persist than
give in to the nihilistic tendencies that I can’t seem to evade.

Baptized in pheromones,
We take for granted the moment when it passes through.
If I loosen my grip,
you’ll just leave me alone.
to dig my own grave. Let me lie to myself.

I’d prefer to persist within
my own construct of familiar existence that I can’t seem to recreate anymore.
It’s so strange how your face changed
Or how the winds could carry the sand, shifting appearances.
This place is formless.

I will decay to skin and bones,
distorted entropy.
They said the king’s been overthrown,
Slight of hand on the screen.
I guess I’d rather be alone
than face this the side of me.

I will decay to skin and bones,
unrewarded legacy.
They said the king’s been overthrown,
can’t believe what's on tv.
I guess I’d rather be alone,
than face this jealousy.
I guess I’d rather be alone
than face this side of me.

I will decay to skin and bones eventually.
