The people rushing to the gate
A full invasion force
I hope you're feeling quick today
The flickering embers of a sleeping fire
The shivers descending down a grid of wires
The master pretending like he has not heard
The tectonic bending of his island world
Power to agititate the tide
You are punching at the waves
The waves of meteoric size
Here comes the rage
The flickering embers of a sleeping fire
The shivers descending down a grid of wires
The master pretending like he has not heard
The tectonic bending of his island world
The flickering static of an old TV
The merciless tactics of the stones and trees
The deafening racket of a storm at sea
The naturally tragic grip on sanity
Fluctuations, fluctuations
All crew to their battle stations
No respite from desperate fighting
Light from darkest saturation
Must have patience, must have patience
Trust despite the situations
Just to spite the cortisol
Hormones burning up the soul
Keep calm, carry on, nothing's going on
Stop and starting, broken hearted
Blanking out those loves departed
Sanctuary from the dark
Without a light it's impossible to find
And a broken mind just breaks up further
With no one to turn to, only matter of time
Before it turns to cold-blooded murder
Stumbling around a cave and flirting with a quiet grave
Fumbling for words to say, for ways of phrasing hopeless days
In the cave rely on touch, can't feel a lot but I'll say this much
It's fucking freezing so show me a reason
Show me a reason to put up with the teasing
To get up in the morning, to stay up 'til the evening
Nothing comes easy but it shouldn't keep bleeding
