lyrics

BORN INTO THE RIVER THE MESSIAH'S INFANT LUNGS FILL WITH WATER
PANIC, IMPATIENT TO RISE ABOVE THE SHORE OF THE ABORTION CRIB
AVOIDING ABYSS YOU CRAWL THROUGH GLASS MIXED WITH AMNIOTIC FLUID
YOU FEEL LIKE A CYST, MEMBRANE STRETCHED TAUT, BOUND TO BURST

I ASCEND BEYOND
THE PRIDE OF GRAVITY
BUT I FIND NO REPOSE
THE WOMB COMES TO RE-DEVOUR (UGH)

TIME TO ACTIVITE THE SIN OF IGNITION
PROMETHEUS, ORIGINAL
A ROCKET TO ANDROMEDA
NO, FURTHER
TO SPLIT THE HYMEN OF HEAVEN
YES! UPWARD
TO BECOME EMPYREAN

THRASHING ABOUT
IN VISCOUS ATMOSPHERE
WARM MUCK OFFERING COMFORT
BUT THAT IS A FRONT TO SNUFF ME OUT

TO DRAG ME DOWN
TO SUCK ME IN

OH NOW YOU MUST BE THIRSTY
BUT I MUST DRINK
TO CELEBRATE MY DESTINY

SHINING LIKE A SCAR,
A SYMBOL OF VICTORY
DEFIANT IN THE FACE OF ENTROPY

BUT AS HIGH AS I SIT,
THERES SOMETHING TO PATIENTLY
CHEWING AT MY HEEL

THE ROYAL DAWN,
MUCH MORE ETERNAL,
AND I FUCKING HATE
OUR COMMON PRISON

OUR COMMON LAW

THIS HAS GONE WAY BEYOND NUTRITION
SUBMISSION, ATTRITION
POPPING SUNS LIKE PILLS
CONSUMING, PULSARS
ACCELERATION NOW INTRINSIC
SUBLIME, EUPHORIA
OBLIVION
ON MY OWN TERMS

BUT YOU'RE SO PATIENT…
YOU KNEW I WAS SO...
IMPATIENT TO DIE
JUST TO KILL THE QUESTION MARK
AS SOON AS EYES ARE BORN
THEY ACHE TO RETURN TO THE ABYSS

OUR SUN IS SO SMALL
NEXT TO OUR NEW BLACK ONE
