about

lyrics

cradling my recent abdications alone
and the constructs in your mind shift
they will become you
and the sun never sets here at night
looking for what is left in your skies

do you think I might be ordinary ?
fascination with erratic pulses
taking comfort in your daily ritual

do you know my kind ?
I know my kind to start a new religion
I think I'll find some peace of mind from the cold
would you take some time ?
I'd take some time to find this new religion
so I can leave this world behind

would you bring all that sparkles and shines to the fold ?
whispering all across every airwave - calling
suckling what I need to survive
encoding every trait of your life

and in the sun I am becoming caricatured
slowly dissolving…
from some iconic higher calling

do you know my kind ?
I know my kind to start a new religion
I think I'll find some peace of mind from the cold
would you take some time ?
I'd take some time to find this new religion
and the sands of time stay frozen from your hourglass tomb
innocence is ignorance stay faithful
innocence is ignorance stay faithful
innocence is ignorance stay faithful – all your pieties
and leave all that you carry by the door

convictions you save
what symbols dictate
with pieties strung all along the path
that keeps me locked in here
it keeps me near…
take me to a place where I can start anew and I belong
whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
where I belong I’ll never need what I leave at the door
