Octahedron lyrics

Close the doors
if you want to see her breathing again
Blur the days
sleeping is just not an option
How come every time I walk you crawl
When you cut out all the letters
that make up this note
I won't give up
'til I find what happened to you
The solution inhaled from
the rag I hold
holds a maximum vacancy
As I held you in crippled bandages
Don't you stay up and wait for me

When Sanskrit was my mother tongue
Scarabs filled my pillow
Tarmac strips pave for them
And thrones from which to teach
And in that pulse the future said
The story had been spun
You wet your bed so sleep in it
Cards can't make a house

And up that hill go the last of my crumbs
We'll be lucky if we eat tonight
And up that hill go the last of crumbs
That's why I'll magnify a hole...

The swarms that I speak
are the wrists I have cut
by flooding the tubs
where the warmth held her up

The lockets believe
that the secret of love
has caught its own tail
and it just won't give up

When I breathe the heavens can't hold me
and I can't believe anymore
The light brings
the highest execution
Show me the wings I must cut

In your landfill days
these are desperate graves

When the earth lets you go
When the verdict is vermin
By the fork in my tongue
When you run out of sermon
When sooner or later
is still not enough
What a foul little temptress
your daughter's become

Deviate by all means in name
'Cuz we all crawl in quicksand the same

The night I begged you to come to me
The limp in your talk
and the scent of your bleed
And still I'm not willing to let you go

How much do you make
in that death factory
Severance owed
in the chamber of revolvers
Empty jails
fall from my scalp
Shake the globe and let me out
if still I can remember the day
that they took you from me
Seems like I've been running
from your trenchant memory
Harpsickle will warn me when it's over
'Cuz if heaven breathes
then someone trade places with me

Do you remember how you wore that dress
It slit my sight beneath the eyelids
Do you remember what you said to me
What course has given you the right to stray
And in your living tomb I'm stuck but safe
The clocks are ticking fast with every breath

Since we've been wrong
I've been part awake
Since we've been wrong
You will never ever know me
What took you so long
I'm not sure all the way

I just don't know the layman's terms
to call the mess you breed
What thaws beneath this surface
soils blood to your family tree
The dates they change
with each new phase
I'm anxious bouts of nervous

What am I without the bruises
this switch it won't come on
What do I do to lose it
beneath this distress call

Let the wheels burn
Let the wheels burn
Stack the tires to the neck
with the body inside

I'm bolted from within
from long conniving heights
The hail it makes a special sound
that always stays into the night
She tells me I'm not capable
of what they accuse me
with no remorse
I stand and say that
guilty is what I plead

My devil makes me dream
like no other mortal dreams
With a blank eye corner
The only way to see him
in the tunnel where he slept
By the longest tusk of corridors
