lyrics

The roses in bloom have such strange perfume they've led me astray from this awkward ballet.

"Seems fine" we scream from the fall of Mother Sublime. "Now why, where am I?" Well, read this and learn to breathe, relax, enjoy the seige. A silence unbroken that night.

I've a friend underground, and one out of town, and lover one day, you too will be one without sound. The glass on the wall shall be all that I recall - the days that weren't for one but for all.

Make a pact that you'll never leave; a promise like stainless steel. The seconds race out of my sight.

The automaton and the lie, hand and hand walking by. "What's that stain on your claw?"

The lie.
