lyrics

Keep pushing and heaving
Into doubt, inside out
Always
Be so disbelieving
In the rout, calling out
Every time
The cold rusty water
Rushing in, crushing in
Over me
The snakes and the sickles
Cutting in, feeds the pain

Loose rubble and jet streams
Lurching columns and ripped seams
The nightmares and daydreams
Are clashing one by one

Hold a mirror to the face
Our disgrace is the only thing we have
All values debased, all lost in another place
The path to better times
It cannot be retraced

The sun light is leaving
Into night, out of sight
Cowering
A glistening fever
Gets a grip, starts to tip

All shivers and frostbite
Turned stale and bleaching into white
Blunt scissors and chalk lines
Are drawing out the blood

Hold a mirror to the face
Our disgrace is the only thing we have
All values debased, lost in another place
Point of no return
Staring in the face
Turn away, before locked inside a stare
Rooted to the ground
Unseeing and never found
A blemish lost in space

Searching for sense
Through the stench of decay
Watching battered gates
Splinter and fall away
Time to be gone
Time to reveal
All that we've forgotten to think and feel
Poisoned by hate, mislead by tears
Dancing straight into the worst of all our fears

Locked away inside
But no place left to hide
Turning pale and blind
Can't see what's left behind
Blocked, starting to sway
Can't turn the other way
Shifting the weight
No turning from our fate
Locked away inside
But no place left to hide
Turning pale and blind
Can't see what's left behind
Blocked, starting to sway
Can't turn the other way
We've gone to far astray
We won't ever learn
We destroy but we can't see…

Hold a mirror to the face
Our disgrace is the only thing we have
All values debased, lost in another place
Point of no return
Staring in the face
Turn away, before locked inside a stare
Rooted to the ground
Unseeing and never found
A blemish lost in space
