lyrics

Far below our senseless edges
And some casual chemistry,
We are the physical remains
Of passages heavenly

Only vapors off of compost,
Our radiant energy
Becoming auburn by the touch of a sword

Beneath an echo left unconscious,
The silence of stirring hums
Beginning everything at once
With the strum of a chord

You’re standing faceless in the mirror
Of the twenty-first century,
Neglecting impulses that beg
To surrender your sanity

Like instructions we’d forgotten,
Never finding the recipe
When the bread itself is a mother’s hand

Couldn’t fall asleep
In the brush of your silence
Caught in a dead heat,
Was I made for defiance?

And I ask myself,
As if no one believes it
We just take it or leave it
And live on in the violence

Drone out,
Everything is a blur now
It’s a constant emotional high,
Curving right with the sound

Crowd out,
When we count up the hours
We become something useless, you see
To become something free
