"Moths" lyrics

"Moths"

That's me, in the dark
No light shall enter there
What once was, now is not
Cinders on an empty chair

Another wave of Dante's cruise
Chipped away, red and blue
No one's at fault you see
I'm public property

They will fear my name
Let them revel in blood
Like moths to the flame
Let them burn up

Walk, corpse, walk
Shake the earth from your bones
We're not done with you yet
In death we are never alone

Walk, corpse, walk
Who says bodies need to breathe?
Thought the dead don't talk
Words infect like disease

Come one, come all!
Gaze upon the caged beast
Human behaviour
A diamond among thieves

Take a souvenir
There will always be more to take
The tragedy of the commons
A wave about to break

They will fear my name
Let them revel in blood
Like moths to the flame
Let them burn up

Walk, corpse, walk
Shake the earth from your bones
We're not done with you yet
In death we are never alone

Walk, corpse, walk
Who says bodies need to breathe?
Thought the dead don't talk
Words infect like disease
