about

Continuation from "Vicarious Virtues", fourth track from our new album "A Violent Whisper".

lyrics

Stay out of my sight
Birds dig up thoughts
Buried in sands
Right by the lake where
We built our walls
We swim each day
In these rivers that flood
Now I say

Take it, or leave it
This path is unforgiving
I say
Make it, or steal it
This path will only take us home
Us home

But I think you lost control
I think you lost your road
Please prove me that I'm wrong
Please let these visions go
As numb ones learn to pray
A remedy awaits
A Sun that blooms and wakes
The violence within stays
While pictures of these ghosts
Leave birthmarks in the raw
The silent undertow
Will never let you go

Stay hidden in plain sight
Showing the way
To brighter skies
All light posts break
With the innocent touch
From a child's hate
As spring turns to fall
Now I say

Take it, or leave it
This path is unforgiving
I say
Make it, or steal it
This path will only take us home
Home

But I think you lost control
I think you lost your road
Please prove me that I'm wrong
Please let these visions go
As numb ones learn to pray
A remedy awaits
A Sun that blooms and wakes
The violence within stays
While pictures of these ghosts
Leave birthmarks in the raw
The silent undertow
Will never let you go

All the people I have ever known
Just another false story told
All the places that I ever saw
Disappear, horizons meet at dawn
Where do I go if there's no longer a way
Everywhere to be now feels the same
There is nothing left to hear or say
As I finally learn to praise the blame
