lyrics

A soul-fire bringing down my world in blue flames
Black smoke rising up to choke the gods
This cold reminder of
As below, so above

The long road’s getting awfully short these days
Black top giving way to rocks and dirt
It hurts... it hurts...

When you’re full of piss and fire
You want it all all all
Injecting darkness just to heal you
Now the moonlight’s dying
And you’ve got to crawl crawl crawl
Because the sun ain’t gonna rise
Anymore

No wires stringing me above the true plane
Wide-eyed, staring down into the dark
If you don’t jump you’ll never know
That’s one life down with none to go

Memories are a bitter pill these days
Bad times are the only ones I feel
It’s real

When you’re full of piss and fire
You want it all all all
Injecting darkness just to heal you
Now the moonlight’s dying
And you’ve got to crawl crawl crawl
Because the sun ain’t gonna rise

White-knuckled
Drowning in distractions
Devouring every image
Every sound
Anything to avoid what’s waiting at the end
Are the answers there at all
Do I leap or do I fall

When you’re full of piss and fire
You want it all all all
Injecting darkness just to heal you
Now the moonlight’s dying
And you’ve got to crawl crawl crawl
Because the sun ain’t gonna rise...
Anymore
