lyrics

There will come a day when you will
look around
and think I was the
one in a million shotguns
that could evade the ricochet
but then it happened,
I let you down.
It's already underway,
seeping in,
schizophrenic,

in a state of emergency that keeps me awake,
pushed to the wits' end, your half life.

The sugary static tones,
hypnotic and endless,
disorient rats that were born
never knowing the sky
and now contemplate their maze.
But does it even matter
when heretics are still marked as villains?
We're only following crumbs to the gallows.

Eyewitness hues dark as ink and cannon fodder crimson
tides are rising with each brushstroke of this fallen angel's bloodshot view.

In a crisis of identity
I lay it down,
improvising at your funeral parade.
Because there will come a day
when you won't look for me
but don't blame the author
of the book you were burning.

I mean, it's allegiant enough to
the state of emergency.
We'll keep you awake,
testing your limits.
All shelf life expired.

The violence you use to compel the doubt
and god fearing, the cultural landscape
is littered and bruised like the fruit that fell
from the tree of knowledge of suffering.
There's so many things I don't yet understand about your nature.
Perhaps we are doomed to collapse beneath the burden of being alone
in a state of of emergency.

In a crisis of identity
I lay it down,
improvising at your funeral.

In a state,
The state of emergency.
it’s the devil’s food cake.
It keeps me away from the thing
that I really care about and the people that I
could not make it home without.
It's a sorry state.

The state of emergency.
