"Rule #31 - Calamity" lyrics

It's a wave
Two miles high
Crushing bones while taking lives
It's a freeze
You can't escape
It's a haunting memory
Of a grander history
Maybe we weren't meant to see
Clues below the dirt
In secretive buildings

It's a ball
And a chain
It's a little company
It's a suit
In a cage
With a touch of apathy
It's a shiny brand new way
To lose your reality
It's a giant fault
Line in commonality

I'm beside
A mirror of me
That looks the same
With crooked teeth
A different line
Of time, it seems
Who scraped through the dirt to
Survive a calamity
It's a wash
A strip of me
A different name
A different scene
With fangs I've never worn before
The expression has changed to one of insanity

It's the calm
Far beneath
Turbulence of rapid seas
Taking breaks
To pause and breathe
When everyone is frantically
Moving on
Changing pace
Never staying in one place for very long
You don't have to run this race

It's okay to stand aside
Let the world pass you by
Things can change
On a dime
You might not prepare in time
For the speed
Of consequence
To plow into your radiant guise

I'm beside
A mirror of me
That looks the same
With crooked teeth
A different line
Of time, it seems
Who scraped through the dirt to
Survive a calamity

I'm beside
A mirror of me
That looks the same
With crooked teeth
With fangs I've never worn before
An expression of rage
Channeling an animal
