And I will avenge
And I will avenge
All of our fallen limbs
But to what end?
Oh, I would gladly dig two graves
Give each and every eye 'til the world has gone blind
Darling, darling
Can't you see you're trespassing?
With all your vibrating vectors
You pass unhindered through each sector
Stepping on toes wherever you may go
And us?
Forever on stilts and eggshells
Forced from our homes
Forced to dwell...
Beyond your reach
In caves, under rocks
A diet of crow and cake
Egg on our face
Like scurrying millipedes
from your artificial light
But, my dear
You've greatly underestimated
The resilience of our tongues
We've grown accustomed to...
Grown a taste for...
The wounds that we lick
To piss and vinegar
and a mouthful of blood with each sip
We've become that which feeds on that which feeds on
For, ever stronger are the bones that have broken and calcified
A prison break from 'neath your ribcage
Crawling through your spray-painted city of worms
Oh, Pyrite Priestess to ferry us into the fire...
Won't you let me show you how to dance between the rain drops?
Your wrath.
Your rage.
It is WAR, we wage
With your head upon this pike
to forever proclaim
That our hearts are at long last free
To ride the Eastward winds
Wherever their true homes should lie...
