lyrics

Where the rain doesn't stop
And the water never pools
Tired of the thing I need
Where the beads just reflect
Or help disperse the specks
Of every human I haven't seen
I don't know what I need

Kept sacred
The metamorphosis
So it consumes those who need it
Kept sacred
The metamorphosis
Or it rapes those who seek it

Where the child never grows
And the adult doesn't die
Thankful for what I can't hold dear
Where the laughs just reflect
Off walls one couldn't suspect
Even gratitude amounts to fear
I can not hold you dear

Kept sacred
The metamorphosis
So it consumes those who need it
Entranced by
The end of bloodline
So I transform my worry into purgatory

Too old or maybe just too frail
Desensitized to the animal's wail
Or attracted to the cause of hunger
Willing to consume my tail

Too cold or maybe just in pain
Wanting something with the interest I fein
Or attracted to forms of emptiness
Willing to wait for my gain

Willing to wait for my gain
My gain
Willing to wait for my gain
My gain
