"Psychomanteum" lyrics

"Psychomanteum"

And then a shot is heard
A slow motion digital alteration
A cloud of smoke cranes over
Twitching eyes

The black liquid, warm to the touch
Dives down
Silence brought this
The wind of those watching over me
I'm alone with death

A stern judgment, cold to the touch
Dislocate
Giving credence
A mangled brain, dissect me
I'm alone with death

A monk-like state
The rate of my urgency

Time is the chemical, the addiction
Green somewhere
The death is a teaching throughout all of me
Time is the chemical, the addiction
Green somewhere
The death gives meaning
Blue is everything

Sit with yourself in silence
You can hear electricity
Their lives
Un
La Mort
Coil

Shiver and shake in the corner
The sun peaking tightly through the window
To bridge
To shape
Psychomanteum
Psychomanteum

Shiver and shake in the corner
The sun peaking tightly through the window
To bridge
To shape
Psychomanteum
Eight reasons for reasoning
Psychomanteum
Eight reasons for reasoning

The shiny surface of the speculum
To cloud our own unconscious mind

A prelude to the appearance of mental imagery
Scry
Visions of the past
Threaded in murder
An unfocused state of terror

Sit with yourself in silence
You can hear electricity
Secret of the temple
Sit with yourself in silence
Found liminal spaces
You can hear electricity
Their lives

We watch on
See life pass by
The smiles, the cries
Feeling frozen by the obsession
Collide

Carry the memories of a twisted history
Pick up our darkness and worship the Martian
The Martian, the wisdom forgotten

Carry the memories of a twisted history
Pick up our darkness and worship the Martian
The Martian, the wisdom forgotten

Mirador
Uncoil

Mirador
Uncoil
Un
La Mort
Coil
Un
La Mort
Coil

The devil is hiding behind the wall
In secret, they watch over
Watch over
Watching their steps, none but one
None but one

Take a drag from the cancer of Earth
Fill your soul
Each architect moves the wall
Soon fill the empty soul

Movement of time to analyze
Analyze, analyze
Seems like a fortune
Don't get in my way
Don't get in my way

Remove myself, ourselves from the dark
The things we say to ourselves to create the spark
To reinvent, to massacre an old memory of myself
And watch my skin pool by the ankles and desert, amongst the fireplace
This is where I belong, this is where we've met
For the first time

Remove myself
Let the fire burn
To reinvent
To massacre
Amongst this haunted space

We watch on
See life pass by
The smiles, the cries
Feeling frozen by the obsession
Collide

We watch on
We watch on
See life pass by
The smiles, the cries
Feeling frozen by the obsession
Frozen by the obsession
Collide

We are anything but possible
We are anything but possible
