lyrics

What difference will exposure make?
Whose face floats in that languid lake?

Like ignorant monarchs, we sit atop spires
Tirelessly iterative polymorphous bricks
Forgetting the doom of our ancestral dowry
While still in our spines swim primordial fish

As stagnation has been felt, I come here now to contemplate
This reflection of myself and how the two are misaligned
Gleaning balance in the movement of the pines

Metastasis interrupts, a runaway reaction
To the overwhelming stimuli of the place our souls belong
It’s the heart that tries to grow itself a lung

We’re planetary effluvium, bound here as we effervesce
Unrestrained potential, a conscious chemical process

What if she told you it’s cold outside?
The smell that surrounds, dead frost on the ground
The birds in the bushes found a way to survive
As that breathless hound advances

As discharge we are creatures forlorn
In exile from the nurturing sea
Doomed by nature to return
Like blossoms of anger on youthful cheeks
