Of the Pulse and the Iris Lyrics


We are the wreckage of eyes

Pinpoint the retina scarred

The sight is hard to ignore

Bliss torn on coat hanger lives

Makeshift human form

Chalk up the lines, divide yourselves

Spit out your intention

Bury it under the fence

Is this a fragment's glare

Soaking up the feeble man's decision to evolve from self?

Or just a prophecy forgotten then regained

Scrubbing the stain, scrubbing the stain

Scrubbing the same stain again

Rotten teeth pulled out and then replaced

Humble fear

Erase this and take me away from this disgrace

Restore my grace in the downfall

I lay drained mental picture of a fallen race

I am a suspect to the fate of our selfish game

Hands tied, predator slain

And there was nothing to clutch to and no one to question,

only hands full of stab wounds of natural selection

Stones set on giants to soothe their depression

tint on their eyelids to kill the reflection of a…

Prophecy forgotten then regained

Scrubbing the stain, scrubbing the stain

Scrubbing the same stain again

Rotten teeth pulled out and then replaced

Shelter simplistic

Rendered of stone

With little resistance

We find our home away from home

Time to cut you motherfuckers down to size

It problem I've been waiting to solve for so long

Step through, step out, step back and square off

Better retract, you're not even half of what you claim to be

You're dead to me for good

Fuck everything you've ever dreamed

You'll never be as good as the lies you've sold

Humble fear

Erase this and take me away from this disgrace

Restore my grace in the downfall
