Lyrics for Psychomanteum

And then a shot is heard A slow motion digital alteration A cloud of smoke cranes over Twitching eyes The black liquid, warm to the touch Dives down Silence brought this The wind of those watching over me I'm alone with death A stern judgment, cold to the touch Dislocate Giving credence A mangled brain, dissect me I'm alone with... ...death A monk-like state The rate of my urgency Time is the chemical, the addiction Green somewherĐ” The death is a teaching throughout all of mĐ” Time is the chemical, the addiction Green somewherĐ” The death gives meaning Blue is everything Sit with yourself in silence You can hear electricity Their lives Un La Mort Coil Shiver and shake in the corner The sun peaking tightly through the window To bridge To shape Psychomanteum Psychomanteum Shiver and shake in the corner The sun peaking tightly through the window To bridge To shape Psychomanteum (Eight reasons for reasoning) Psychomanteum (Eight reasons for reasoning) The shiny surface of (The) To cloud (speculum) our own unconscious mind A prelude to the appearance of mental imagery Scry Visions of the past Threaded in murder An unfocused state of Terror Sit with yourself in silence You can hear electricity (Secrets of the temple) Sit with yourself in silence (Found liminal spaces) You can hear electricity Their lives We watch on See life pass by The smiles, the cries Feeling frozen by the obsession Collide Carry the memories of a twisted history Pick up our darkness and worship the Martian The Martian, the wisdom forgotten Carry the memories of a twisted history Pick up our darkness and worship the Martian The Martian, the wisdom forgotten Mirador (Uncoil) Mirador Uncoil Un La Mort Coil Un La Mort Coil The devil is hiding behind the wall In secret, they watch over (watch over) Watching their steps, none but one None but one Take a drag from the cancer... ...of Earth (Fill your soul) Each architect moves the wall Soon fill the empty soul Movement of time to analyze (analyze, analyze) Seems like a fortune Don't get in my way Don't... ...get in my way Remove myself/ourselves from the dark The things we say to ourselves to create the spark To reinvent/to massacre an old memory of myself Watch my skin pool by the ankles and desert, amongst the fireplace This is where I belong, this is where we've met For the first time Remove myself Let the fire burn To reinvent To massacre Amongst this haunted space We watch on See life pass by The smiles, the cries Feeling frozen by the obsession Collide We watch on (We watch on) See life pass by The smiles, the cries Feeling frozen (Frozen by obsession) the obsession Collide We are anything but possible We are anything but possible
