lyrics

Dragging my feet uphill into a furnace
Crooked trees and amber skies
I see the end but I do not want to arrive

Serpent limbs and crumbling stone
Constricting thoughts of loyal drones
Skies of blood and roots of bone

Darkness cast before me
The last remaining rays
Virescent clouds of acid rain

Soil soaked with toxic waste

Following my elongated shadow
Each step forward skewing my self image
Bending and twisting across the gravel
Backlit by an expiring sun

Evaporating sweat from my leathered skin
Ashen silhouettes adorn the horizon
Gnarled landscape of coagulated crimson

Refracting light toys with my imagination

A paradise of dead leaves and boiling rivers
Reaching up towards a contorted cathedral

Backlit by an expiring sun
Darkness cast before me
Virescent clouds of acid rain
Stripping my clothes away

Ashes

Reaching up towards a contorted cathedral
Only to fall for infinity into flame
