作曲 : Booth, Dälek, Oktopus | |
1. I sense this social order in decline | |
Our people's been assassinated by our own blind | |
Balance bullets off last vertebrae | |
yo gunshots and lyrics if well aimed will reverberate | |
There's no escape | |
Your false Jesus promised lies | |
I'm... serenaded by sincere tears often | |
The honest only work to afford wooden coffins | |
Done talking cause it's speech that allows for deceit | |
This d‰lek I speak is forever bred in basements | |
Complacent eyes are the only witness to my changes | |
Abrasive words slurred with obtuse thought | |
Caught by the few who do watch | |
But lost on these blocks. | |
chorus: | |
Breath below gravel | |
Eyes to form shadows | |
Despair always ample | |
Structure's unraveled | |
Breath below gravel | |
Eyes to form shadows | |
Head's nod | |
But we still living shackled | |
2. Ample time to sleep once this vein's collapse | |
Clasp hands in vain attempt to prey upon victims | |
Asked for incisions to sever chest from mind | |
Designed from remnants of nightmares broke in sections | |
Blessings can't save designated slaves | |
Only answer that remains to subvert whole system | |
All systems fail | |
But it's patience that has failed | |
As our patriarchy's jailed to provide veiled income | |
None listen I speak with pierced larynx | |
Addicts move in slow increments within granite | |
Hands bound and damaged are weapons we brandish | |
Deemed savage by masses | |
When this anger's just average. | |
chorus: | |
Breath below gravel | |
Eyes to form shadows | |
Despair always ample | |
Structure's unraveled | |
Breath below gravel | |
Eyes to form shadows | |
Head's nod | |
But we still living shackled | |
Bridge: | |
That pathetic premise of freedom is false | |
Futility of earthly flesh answers death's solemn call | |
Within these very words lie my ancestral tongue | |
I kept breath within collapsed left lung | |
As I witnessed modern tower of Babel come undone | |
These bloodshot eyes surmise that most meaning is lost. | |
3. Lost paradise rots | |
Vacant lots breed riots | |
Few men defiant as we tread 'mongst giants | |
Filthy air of liar fills lung of young lions | |
Pierced flesh of Mayan bleeds words on papyrus | |
Desires blurred in tortured minds of the pious | |
None stand as righteous when judged through this iris | |
Skin marked by man's iron | |
Weighted souls wake when well tired | |
The unsuspected conspire | |
Brunt smoke from pyre fills night's sky | |
Should we attempt to walk on water since we all crucified? | |
These questions denied | |
Answers just lies | |
Sanctify history from hands of blind scribes. | |
chorus: | |
Breath below gravel | |
Eyes to form shadows | |
Despair always ample | |
Structure's unraveled | |
Breath below gravel | |
Eyes to form shadows | |
Head's nod | |
