Withered

Let these days bore through my bones
Let these teeth be ground down to dust
May my eyes fade into pools of white waste
May my ears shrivel and deafen
The edifice will give way to rubble
Every mark will wipe from this stone
All the roads twisting and blackened
This vessel will run over the ground
This place will tear me asunder
These weeks will feed me to worms
Garb me in linens, torch me to cinders
I will be devoured in the dirt
I am but flotsam and fodder
I am strewn in the loam underfoot
Spattered on the stones, fattening the roots
The imminent and the looming

Claimed

When at last our dance is done
He welcomes all, old and young
To lay with him in darkened earth
Embrace of ash, in arms of dirt
Through blood and bone he makes his way
The darkest step, a waltz of decay

Bound
01:51

Hunched and bent low
Eyes rake the glass
Fettered by fear
Held without bonds
Torn from the sun
Sealed within rooms without doors
Caressed by bastardized winds
Whining machines
Clamoring voices
Bathed in false light
Sapping our days
Leeching our strength
Marching this dirge
We are locked into rank and file
This din fills our every thought
Sealed in cages of glass and steel
With our knees bent, we bow our heads
Wasting away inside of these tombs

Borne

We are the blood upon the air
We are the blood under the ground
The way is flooded by a writhing mass
Bones grinding themselves into dust
We are the blood under the ground
We are the blood upon the air
Flowing through these limbs that never rest
Bodies adrift in the bowels of this machine
We are the blood
Sink from the sky
Break from the earth
Seeking home
