Lyrics:
Disjointed context The words were merely sounds Watching as the buildings Slowly crumbled to the ground
Thoughts never rendered Lie dying by the road Last breath drawn endlessly Collapsing into smoke
CH: Struggling to break free From life's inequities The suicide of reason Becomes the drowning season
Grim repetition Dour features form a frown The clock's hand reverberates Throughout the empty town
De-evolution Oxidizing the past The present is uncertain The future never lasts
(CH)
Pre-emptive reflex Split-second sanctity Repeating prayers that somehow Never got received
(CH)
