Sick, white noise
Tectonic ripples unfold your skull
A thick miasma of pulsing light
Just you wait…
The synapse charge
Murmuring
Bone creaks and chattering of teeth
And folding inwards on layers of grey
Folding inwards upon orbit of grey
Did revelation creep in
Like pins and needles
In your sleeping limbs
Did love leave you slowly…?

A pillar rises in uncertain time
As the breath of war obscures the sun
The child rides against you on the battlefield
Torn down
In the name of the Divine
A fervent hand seals the damned
Do you revel in the iron taste
Of fratricide
She is not ours
She is not of our tribe
She is not ours
She is not from our tribe…
The behemoth stirs
To rewrite your epitaph
Betrayal washed in centuries
Hypocrisy blown like ash
Holy, now.

Impatient, always
Since the young seeds grew
Observing cycles of flame to gunpowder
Until the bitterness beat them blue
And the water no longer flows
And I grow tired of damage and repair
Nailed down in one position
Watching the dust blow away
Brother, let the barbs roll off
Brother, just let the arrows fall
Brother, why can't you just
Let the barbs roll right off
