Lyrics


1. SKYBURNER

The deafening sacrifice
I know my mind
A sickening appetite
Subsumed in white

The impetus dragging you on
The blood does no good when it’s gone
Leaving the flesh to the side
The dead do no good now they’ve died
Leading my eyes to my sight
Bleeding the blood from my mind
Feeling my hands to the throne
It’s taking the dust from my bones

A burning sky
The folding time
In infinite shattered lives
Distending mine

Sand and sea
Blood and bone
Flesh and soul

Drags on me
Weights my sounds
Draws me down


2. FIVE EYES

Stones in my throat,
press on my soul.
Struggling. Stumbling.
Flesh on my bones
Anxious in my role.
Leaden pit. Crawling skin.

This festering light,
I hold it to my soul
shows famine and blight.
Shows darkness.
The effort of life,
it shapes the dust here.
The flesh will alight.
I’m breathing.

Festering light,
The waters of light.
Perspicate. Salivate.

I control,
for the mind controls.
For the Eyes’ control.

Hand of my hands,
Land-spanning sands.
Callouses. Callouses.
I’m always diffuse.
Forever consumed.
Fumbling. Hopelessness.

I’m always alone.
I give you my bones,
Splintering. Splintering.
These stones in my throat.
This flesh on my bones.
Worthlessness. Loneliness.

The Eyes control


3. THE BOATS

Head for the open sea,
Don’t envy me, don’t envy me
The air was there for you to breath,
But not for me, if not for me
Into the open sea,
Don’t envy me, don’t envy me
The sun was there for you to see,
But not for me, but not for me

The eye
Followed through time
Is blind
As it should be
Now
Your essence at stake
Create
Or die

I fail all the time
I try
Follow slowly down
Because of this curse my end is nigh

I cannot see
I cannot breath
Crashing before you
I cannot feel
What I cannot feel
Drifting towards the eye

The eye
Followed through time
Is blind
As it should be
Now
Your essence at stake
Create
Or die

I fail all the time
I try
Follow slowly down
Because of this curse my end is nigh

End time
Swallowing brine
I’m trying
Slowly languishing light
The pressure abates
Create
