lyrics

“hey there, young fiend, what do i say?”
“once you hit bone wipe the blood off your face?”
“i should think so. it’s all in good taste. when you dig for his heart,
don’t let his entrails go to waste! i admit, i eat meat—”
“you feast upon prey!”
“i’m just an avenger fighting decay. this decay, it creeps through
flesh, baring bone. we waste away, and our legacy will be debated
as to the battles we’ve won and lost against the slow rot of time;
against the flight of the sun. our fragile bodies come undone.

“stitch by stitch, seam by seam, time makes us pay. vultures eat
vegans out on the highway. children hide under their desks and
they pray as bullets ravage classrooms; as the sun dusks the day.
who bursts across the scene of open fire? the overarching father
time, whose swinging arms offer no reprieve— one more god to
deify; our plastic hanging mock sun counts down a fate we can’t
outrun.”

“deep in my hearts of hearts, i guess you’d call it guilt.”
“call it a labour of love.”
“i call it death from above.”
“circumstance is a lesson in chance.”
“the heartbeat, a ritual dance?”
“call the timepiece a brazen image, the tick-tock clock life’s blood;
time will drain us drip by drip unless we commence with flood!”
