"Cyr" lyrics
"Cyr"
Fragments form the mind
Shadows hold the mist
Fractured as this wish
Shattered I resign
We're on the verge, we're on the verge
Of sacred dawning and sloe-sloe eyes
Say, I done told you
Say how I tried, too
Where you've wrought from creation's crown
Say, dire warning
Stare down your masters
With the promise of one and what you are
We're on the verge
Tangents vex the whorl
The void arrives, then leaves
Returning, returning a kiss
For lovers built the dream
Say, I done told you
Say how I tried, too
Where you've wrought from creation's crown
Say, dire warning
Stare down your masters
With the promise of one and what you are
We're on the verge
Did the times, wind
Did the crowd, kind
Aping youth, wise
Ever lost, ides
'Midst the chaff, as meek
And those weak, as sand
Turning glass upside down
For the hours should they pass
Say, I done told you
Say how I tried, too
Where you've wrought from creation's crown
Say, dire warning
Stare down your masters
With the promise of one and what you are
We're on the verge
(We're on the verge)
We're on the verge
We're on the verge

Billy Corgan of the band told about this song, "'Cyr' is dystopic folly. One-soul-against-the-world sort of stuff set against a backdrop of shifting loyalties and sped-up time… To me it stands as both hopeful and dismissive of what is and isn't possible with faith."
"Cyr" and its
music video were released on the 28th of August 2020. The video's director, Linda Strawberry, said about it in a press release,
"This is a goth fever dream of pent-up emotion—an artistic visual release attempting to create a momentary escape from the emotional black cloud hanging over all of us this year. A dark seduction filmed in quarantine at a social distance."
