Like a bird above a flooded land, we circle eternally
We try to find a single strand of humanity in the human condition
Stuck in this looping regression, nothing short of obsession
We’re addicted to the pain, we love our chains
I want it to end, an escape from the descent
The endless descent
The plains are high on fire
But I’ll sit back and admire how composed you remain
All throughout it stays the same
But no, it doesn’t feel the same
Now that we’rе this way
Emphatic hatred will be all that remains
Whеn they get their day
As words wrap themselves in a damning silence
I give up on myself and accept their violence
No it’s not about me, nor him or he, it’s what comes about in unity
I couldn’t even fathom what it meant to me to reconcile with infinity
I thought all these thoughts were all I was ever to be
That there wasn’t more left to find right inside
No signs from heaven came today so I subjected myself to an object of hate
Not a second to think, nor a chance to abate, oh I’ve been washing away
The light that guided me, now wilted and decayed
As words wrap themselves in a damning silence
I gave up on myself and accepted their violence
I forgot who I was, I forgot what it meant to be
How many times must I right this wrong?
I sing as if this is a joyous song
Say their names, speak aloud, don’t forget, don’t ever relent
