"A Sanctimonious Song" lyrics

"A Sanctimonious Song"

Lost for good
Like a Polaroid in a fire
It wasn't meant to be

Take a break
From these sanctimonious psalms
And bury their debris

Slip away
Don't apologize
Or recoil
For how we came to be

Prise the jaws
Of animosity
And dissolve
The self within the seed

Drift away
Don't apologize
And recall
The way we came to be

Ease the grip
Of your anxiety
And resolve
The self within the seed

Lost for good
Like a sunken boat in the deep
It wasn't meant to be

Shed a tear
For this sanctimonious song
And drop it in the sea
