A fading neon gleam casts shadows over stone The city’s shining skin is shedding from the bone
I’ve gone from pillar to pariah in the slide In seas of doubt I swim against the turning tide
Broken bodies line the walls Midas empires crash and fall Wings that melt when we try to soar Close my eyes as I descend To the gold rush at it’s end Take me back to before... This isn’t human anymore
Look into the natural heart Following the beat of the chemical This isn’t human anymore Tearing the connections apart Crawling at the feet of our pedestals Are you still human at the core?
Pushing the reflex Pressure the defects Breaking down is inevitable Spraining the rivets Straining the limits Breaking down is inevitable
The ghosts of order dot the eye and the tilt the three I stalk the trinity into conspiracy
They painted masterworks and set them all alight The scars of persecution always harden into spite
Broken bodies line the walls Midas empires crash and fall Wings that melt when we try to soar Close my eyes as I descend To the gold rush at its end Take me back to before...
This isn’t human anymore Look into the natural heart Following the beat of the chemical This isn’t human anymore Tearing the connections apart Crawling at the feet of our pedestals Are you still human at the core? Look into the natural heart don’t let it turn to stone Are you still human at the core? Look into the natural heart don’t let it turn to stone
Pushing the reflex Pressure the defects Breaking down is inevitable Spraining the rivets Straining the limits Breaking down is inevitable
