"The H.A.G." lyrics
(feat. Apollo Kepler)
Ascension, suspension, redemption
A gambit's lesson in desperate obsession
Reflection, confession, regression
A foolish message to question progression
Darling, hold my hand tight
Beneath the fading moonlight
Don't fear, for when you wake
I'll be there waiting, dear
So, darling, hold my hand tight
It's sick how sympathetic values stain on the skin
(Timelines demystify systematic suicide)
Yet your win is martyred as a poor man's attempt at sin
(Timelines demystify systematic suicide)
I'll rewrite my plight tonight
We seem to meet on those snowy, winter days
As the summer slumbers in a solar-still malaise
Reside in twilight, I know our souls are tied
I'll blight the night
And as the vagaries of life pass through our transitory eyes
I see you there and eulogize
If our fates are bound by my past mistakes
I'll forsake every memory
And damn us to never wake
Betray the angel's frame
Redemption, obsession, regression, progression
Through cycles and trials, could I still atone?
Come say you hate me, berate me, that you're not worth saving
But what of the blood gently staining the snow?
Just tell me, tell me why you have to go
How could you know? How could you ever know? (How would you even know?)
Stay with me sinking into the unknown
How could you know? Just tell me how you know
(La-la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la)
May the L.O.R.D. be my light
(La-la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la)
May he guide this spineless spite
(La-la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la)
As the flow of fate refrains
(La-la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la)
I'll embrace your cold remains
Human ascension is a belligerent game
(And on that day we split that latte)
The tides of time are set to restless shame
(We saw our fate)
Oh, Nalin, Calla, Zahir, Hana
(In refrain, wilting away)
No matter the shape
I'll find a way to break the frame
That frame of us remains in my head
A collage of all the ways you've seen me dead
I lay awake in phantom embrace
As these memories caress my frigid face
And the song that you wrote
As the snow graced the oak
Left an old haggard crow
On an endless plateau
I'll lament my descent
But I'll never repent
Watch this heartache transcend
Begging, "Don't you wilt away"
The H.A.G. cries out in vain
As forty-two cicadas laugh in his face
"The past can't be negotiated"
Father Time declared
But I'm stuck here still, my daffodil
Tell me why you've lost your will
The gods are ever cruel
For even in this life I am but a fool
My tears create a burning shame
To bring this world to flames
Oh, your feeble face is
Rotting upon the rust
The charred remains of this place
Will be nothing but scattered dust
Dios, te odio, ay, te odio
Gasté siglos buscando absolución
Hace años que me abandonaste
Tres milenios de pura aversión
A gambit's lesson in desperate obsession
Reflection, confession, regression
A foolish message to question progression
Darling, hold my hand tight
Beneath the fading moonlight
Don't fear, for when you wake
I'll be there waiting, dear
So, darling, hold my hand tight
It's sick how sympathetic values stain on the skin
(Timelines demystify systematic suicide)
Yet your win is martyred as a poor man's attempt at sin
(Timelines demystify systematic suicide)
