"Slow Sour Bleed" lyrics

Breathe in the smoke

Hide the key, try to sleep
To pause the illusion you're under
Patient beasts show their teeth
Alone in a forest to wander

I lie awake with one eye open
And watch you take your place

Wounds engraved in the fault line
Shadows die in the starlight
Primal rage to sedate lucid memory
Salvation of the undone

Atrocity beyond your dreams
A dogmatic culling your wonder
Surfacing to bleed the leech
Bury a box with me under

Those thoughts are a cold dark place
Conspiratorial towards the human race
Are we men or deserted islands
With origins unknown to define our violence?

I lie awake with one eye open

Wounds engraved in the fault line
Shadows die in the starlight
Primal rage to sedate lucid memory
Salvation of the undone

Salt and ash in the sunrise
Jagged edge in the riptide
Fragile things vanishing in the in-between
Salvation of the undone

Breathe in the smoke
Nothing grows in eternity

Certainty is dead and gone
Indifference is a gift in love and extinction

Humanity is an open wound
Nothing grows in eternity
Pain is the answer

Wounds engraved in the fault line
Shadows die in the starlight
Primal rage to sedate lucid memory
Salvation of the undone

Salt and ash in the sunrise
Jagged edge in the riptide
Fragile things vanishing in the in-between
Salvation of the undone

Nothing grows in eternity
