Sliver Songtext
von Abigail’s Ghost

Why do we falter?
What do we alter?
How do we conquer holy fear?
Isn′t there hope for
Some of the others
Even ones who don't quite adhere
Knowing, understanding
What your given, gives to you
Taking in the breaking in of
Feelings so brand new
Fighting to keep both
Feet on the ground when
Bitten by hands that
Feed
Now every fear that
I had misplaced is
Looking on while I
Bleed
Visions make decisions
Where a conscience should reside


Fall down moral high ground
And get taken for a ride
Damaging perception
Tends to make up for the pride
Hoping that the means to be an end is justified
Starryeyed
Limelight
Cynical spotlight
Consequences start
Choosing sides
Taking the chance that
Promises combat
Every doubt that our
Faith provides
Methods underhanded
Lead to suffering and pain
Adding to the list of ways
The guilty lay the blame
Nature is nurtured
Lies are now packaged
Branded as faith and
Sold as sincerity to
Those who would fear Ir
Rational thought while
Stoking their own ir
Rational fear
Make me aware that a
New generation of
Mindless automatons found mediocrity
Bury me deep in a
Black plastic sunrise and
Cover my eyes with the ground where I lie
