lyrics

M I S C A R R I A G E

Shield his eyes so he can’t see.
Feed him lies so he can’t dream.

And someday he will grow up just like you.

Cut his throat so he can’t speak.
Watch him bend to your critique.

And someday he will grow up and he’ll tear apart the sky.
And grab your savior by the throat and tell him he’s a lie.
And climb the highest mountaintop to watch you from above.
And empty every magazine to teach you how to love.

Sing your praise, the monster’s dead.
But monster is what monster’s fed.

And someday one will rise up from the ashes of the last.
And tear apart your testaments as relics of the past.
And climb the highest mountaintop to watch you from above.
And empty every magazine to teach you how to love.

-Transcript Begin-

“Still I don’t know just how long it will be.
And though I can try I could never succeed.
And though I can do what you wanted for me.
I’ll always do first what does nothing for me."

"Stay inside forever, I will never say goodbye.
Stay inside forever, I will never say goodbye.
Stay inside forever, I will never say goodbye.
Stay inside forever, I will never say goodbye."

"Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye you little bitch.
Goodbye. Goodbye you little bitch. Goodbye you little thing.
Goodbye the part of me you took.
To satisfy the string you cut.
To pour away the stream of blood.
So I could wither quietly."

"So I could wither quietly."

-Transcript End-

about

The Ugly Facade image

The Ugly Facade

We live our lives in boxes, with little glowing screens. We fill our blood with toxins, so we can deal with things. And sometimes, more than often, the bitter masks the taste. The fruitless failed reflection: what if it's all a waste?
