lyrics

we’re all prostrate to an altar of self
an altar of hate there’s an altar of power
and how much can i hold over you?
what can i do, what can i say?
to make you stay and go away
simultaneously

i was singing to a shadow when you saw so crystal clear
now you know
that when it gets in a wickedness aims to grow
too surly or too early or just stilled from the start
it’s some kind of art
of walking upright and falling apart

were all sedate in the furnace room
within the crawling skin beneath
the palace of power
a long shadow moves within you
conscript of fate you’re a two way street
but they bait you with triumph
it’s acquiesce or defeat if you expect to eat

i was running with the shadows
when you thought i disappeared
thought you should know
when the fear gets it’s grips
you just gotta go
i was scrawling out like scribble
you remain so art nouveau
you know it shows
better to cast away the casket
and knuckle under
for the overthrow.

i was singing to the shadows
when u saw so crystal clear
now you know
that when a wickedness gets in
it aims to grow
too surly or too early
or even damned from the start
but made into art
of walking up rite and falling apart

i was running with the shadows
when you thought i disappeared
now you know
that when the fear gets hold
you just gotta go
i was scrawling out like scribble
and you remained so art nouveau
you know it shows
better to cast away the casket
and knuckle under
for the overthrow.
