lyrics

Swaying Ark


It takes more than you're willing to give
Sirens sounding longer than it took to reach -
Insight torn apart remains tentative.
Talents equalled only by his vices.

People told me, "don't believe it,"
His seed's planted in deceiving.
Keeping cards so close to your chest.
Keep hidden till next years regrets.

Kindred spirits standing worlds apart
On this swaying ark
At the edge of the ocean.
Faintly deception escapes aside your breath
On this delicate nest every branch will entwine.

This metaphor is not sarcastic
It's just a little obscene.
This scene is not such a spectacle
Though it has to be seen be believed.

How to communicate
with your self comatose ignorance?
Pack up and don't be late.
So sorry this ship has sailed.

These reckless waters,
unending hungry abyss.
The lighthouse it calls us,
A beacon atop solid cliffs.
