lyrics
Furnish the pillage
Redesign my bones
You decide what I keep inside
Finally there's no remorse, it's all red
Every time I can see my bliss, it's pulled away; the miserable divine
The last time the stones align,
Reactions will change your mind,
The silence immortalised,
Immersions dissect the lie,
No one will follow you down
Can't you see? So far away from home, I'm still asleep.
Devoid of reason to wake up to be me
I've lost my feet
The floor beneath me is never ending
It's getting harder to see
My world has come undone
This isn't where I'm to be
I'm sinking away to my beginnings
It's getting harder to see
My world has come undone
Bye now, don't you forget it
Don't you come running home
By now, structures have flattened
Nothing to come back to...
Bye now, don't you forget it
Don't you come running home
By now, structures have flattened
Nothing to come back
To
Whom it may concern
Go through
With no way to return
I flew
Purged from all that I yearn
To turn into what we've become
Let's sink our filthy teeth into this mess that we've created,
Let's buy ourselves a whole new hole in this new wall and dream we've made it.
Keep sinking deep inside the void
I’m trying to reach your love
That you left behind
It’s getting harder to see you in the dark
Keep telling me those lies tonight
I’m trying to reach your love
It’s getting harder to see you in the dark
Shine your light on my misery
Shine it till we go blind
Furnish the pillage
Redesign my bones
You decide what I keep inside
Finally there's no remorse
It's all red
This time I've convinced myself to fall upon the mercy of goodbye
The last time the stones aligned,
Reactions will change your mind,
The silence immortalised,
Immersions dissect the lie.
