lyrics

Portal
Atop my spine
Blanket
Over my eyes
There's 15 minutes 'till the hammer falls
Tear it down like a wrecking ball
To make it out ALIVE

I can't dream
When I'm asleep
There's no Lord
For my soul to keep
Just infinite parts
Impossible shapes
Lucidity melt away

Can't trust
Eyes Deceive
Pharmaceutical coffin
Callosum bleeds
No!

A lifetime elapses, unchained from time's might
As concrete stalagmites reach dizzying heights
The sentries attack, the barriers fall
From eternal eyes.
