16.100 Words (From Sing The Sorrow Sessions 2003)
This is the final night, boys.
We are the cracks in diamond walls.
I tried to illuminate but the shadows kill.
I'm overshadowed.
See how I blend in with nothing?
Now beautiful boys, let's destroy.
We'll shine as the lucite breaks and falls.
Raise the new glitter god with the golden tears
the tears that swallow.
A smile that's touched so warms nothing.
Yesterday I burnt the sky,
looked to the ground and wrapped it around me.
Still today I have so much to burn.
Yesterday I longed to die,
fell to the ground, and the ground caught me.
Now today I question why I fell.
Deities fell to decoys,
tainting what's pure.
Let's cleanse them all.
Infinite life reclaimed,
as the shadows kill they are overshadowed.
Well burn as they fade into nothing.
Yesterday I burnt the sky,
looked to the ground and wrapped it around me.
Still today I have so much to burn.
Yesterday I longed to die,
fell to the ground, and the ground caught me.
Now today I question why I fell.
So what can help me to understand, somehow,
why it always pains me to breathe?
We're no longer confined
because yesterday I burnt the sky...
Yesterday I burnt the sky,
looked to the ground and wrapped it around me.
Still today I have so much to burn.
Yesterday I longed to die,
fell to the ground, and the ground caught me.
Now today I question why I fell.
