Ghosts of older and rotted graves
Trapped in contention, an endless rage
Away, ascend into empty space
Chasing absolvement abolishing grace
Never closer has never been further away
Changing our faces
Walking now
On the razor's edge
Hold not to fall
Calm the wind to end
Walled in tall
On the razor's edge
Hold not to fall
Into death
Coiling in and around the wastes
Of shapeless, impossible places
Roiling silt and swallowing down the clay
To fill this fathomless blank
To fill this fathomless blank
Each and every wheel that spins must end
This cycle of violence is restless
At the end where all is left to wane
Waxing in, our vision growing where
We have seen, this place where time begins
Ghosts of older and rotted graves
Do now awaken in endless rage
Away from solace and fabled grace
Screaming forever in empty space
