Collapsist Songtext

Collapsist Songtext
I′ve told you before
You should see
What a curse it is
That we should be
Alive in the end times
We who with pretence
Of artistry
Who sound alarm and do cry:
"See, thy stars doth descend!"
Surely deserve to be just a little
Deified
Witness me, my affinity
In my natural naturality
Carve a heart in every tree
Oh, shame upon humanity
Never listened, never listened
Deserving of destruction?
Just maybe
Dream of smoke filled skies
Chocked in awe and paralyzed
Speak of losing time
The myth of force epitomized
Is this melted steel
These beads in my hair?
Is that a glimmer of hope
In my thousand-yard stare?
My carpet bomb words
That you never bought
Lay waste to the world
Burning "is" down to "ought"
One day you will know
All along I was right
And the earth I forgo
In spite, in bitter spite
Never listened, never listened
To my raving reductions
Witness me
Never listened, never listened
Deserving of destruction
Just maybe
Sound the alarm
Closing deadline
Lay your final gifts
At narcissus' shrine
The extinguishing sun
Will be my time to shine
Dream of smoke filled skies
Chocked in awe and paralyzed
Speak of losing time
Knowing not what I personify
The higher the pedestal
The greater the distance
You should see
What a curse it is
That we should be
Alive in the end times
We who with pretence
Of artistry
Who sound alarm and do cry:
"See, thy stars doth descend!"
Surely deserve to be just a little
Deified
Witness me, my affinity
In my natural naturality
Carve a heart in every tree
Oh, shame upon humanity
Never listened, never listened
Deserving of destruction?
Just maybe
Dream of smoke filled skies
Chocked in awe and paralyzed
Speak of losing time
The myth of force epitomized
Is this melted steel
These beads in my hair?
Is that a glimmer of hope
In my thousand-yard stare?
My carpet bomb words
That you never bought
Lay waste to the world
Burning "is" down to "ought"
One day you will know
All along I was right
And the earth I forgo
In spite, in bitter spite
Never listened, never listened
To my raving reductions
Witness me
Never listened, never listened
Deserving of destruction
Just maybe
Sound the alarm
Closing deadline
Lay your final gifts
At narcissus' shrine
The extinguishing sun
Will be my time to shine
Dream of smoke filled skies
Chocked in awe and paralyzed
Speak of losing time
Knowing not what I personify
The higher the pedestal
The greater the distance
