Nugas ad Noctua (The Third Thing) Lyrics


The Owl never lies

That fucker’s wise

with god like perception from nightfall to sunrise

He sees you there

He is aware

Your intentions are static that crack in the air

We sought to find freedom of soul and mind

To unchain perception and leave the dark and cold behind

You took something awful baby

fuckin rendered you blind

deaf and dumb and paralyzed

I feel you breathing

limp on the floor silently screaming

wide panicked eyes

what are they seeing?

does it see you too?

We cracked every door

some were best left undisturbed and ignored

the best of intentions will not give you strength in the wild

I took something awful baby

fuckin losing my mind

I haven’t breathed for days now

but my body will not die

Synapse collapsing

I feel everything at once that ever happened

The universe is small, I see it clearly

desperate to scream

my mouth is missing, my lungs are empty

The Owl is a lie

that fucker’s sly

He sees through your darkness with unerring eyes

like the moon owns the tides

your soul is his prize

your mind and your flesh are just playthings to pass his infinite time
