Everything you'd live and die for
|
Reasons leading you through here
|
Perished matriarchal bonds
|
Failing innocence of love
|
When the world beckons your approach
|
It swallows you whole
|
|
You'll believe what you're led to believe
|
In the hands of ghosts we're never responsible
|
Wait to see what you're meant to see
|
The veil lifts when you expose your soul
|
|
Pray'd I would leave this place someday
|
Joined to alarm from long ago now unconcerned
|
Euphorically floating upon wax wings where is the sun?
|
I still see her face; her beauty, her grace
|
Transfixed like a light in front of me
|
It follows my soul
|
And swallows me whole
|
|
You'll believe what you're led to believe
|
In the hands of ghosts we're never responsible
|
Wait to see what you're meant to see
|
The veil lifts when you expose your soul
|
|
Left, right, left, right...
|
|
His branches reached so far before
|
His leaves were bold extremities with great control
|
Wasted along; he died alone
|
|
You'll believe what you're led to believe
|
In the hands of ghosts we're never responsible
|
Wait to see what you're meant to see
|
The veil lifts when you expose your soul
|
|
She's inanimate, bloodless elegance
|
Fatal fascination breeds a bloom of misery
|
Helpless hiding tongues, bathed in revulsion
|
Here lies possibility wilting premature
|
|
But the right hand hates the left and the sea's upset with the sky
|
So we press on in spite of the spite
|
Happiness is a knife when the worlds on its side and your minds on fire
|
|
Trying to find the trouble with the trouble I've found
|
Begging my god to make the wheels go round
|
Eat so much but I never get full
|
Earth opened up and swallowed us whole
|
