Lyrics:

Genome

Sutured to the night – I’m living like a ghost
In the errant pass of time – I’m living like a ghost
Nothing is opaque
Tethered to this rite, the sequence takes its shape

Hostage to the thought – I beg for an escape
In the tranquil depths of night, I collapse beneath the weight
Silence breaks the peace
Haunted by this rite – there is poison in my veins

Sequence encrypted
Subatomic schemes; poisoning fate

At the mercy of design, we carry on like ghosts
Specters of the past – encrypted with a code
Reconcile the blame
Lucid cries of shame
Measured by this rite – we’re bound to break the strain

Sequence Encrypted
Subatomic schemes that poison fate


Breaking Strain

A vague and shallow warmth takes hold of me
The embers of its presence never fade
Motions learned and habits form
A deep and swelling red that mutes the gray

Gently, bind the hands that carve this hollow world
Embody all the violence you betray
Still the beating of your yearning heart
Amidst the fire you’re just a straining flame

Echoes of a broken purpose


Moon-Driven Sea

Fields of view
They languish and stray
Fray at the ends
In visceral ways
Vivid reflections
I see myself in your eyes
Caught in the moment
I mimic your stride
Again, and again – I’m caught in the sway
Again, and again – in the moon-driven sea

Dizzied by your glances
You shatter me to pieces
Embody the world – subvert myself
Then what of me is even left but vertigo?

With weightless precision
These constellations of truth
Skew into image
A torrent of proof
I slip through my fingers
It’s like grasping at air
Reduced to a movement
A moment we share
Again, and again – I’m caught in the sway
Again, and again – in the moon-driven sea
