Western Brink

from Absurd To Wake by The Ugly Facade

/

lyrics

There won’t be cataclysm
Not some violent overthrow
It won’t be magical
The dissolution happens so slow

All the saints will come again
That’s the lie we’re living in
Never even questioning
Never even asking why

i know faith will crumble
take us all out in the tumble
Steady how the love grows colder
God is just a frozen shoulder

when you see us falling over
Know that we’ll be dragging you
we’ll be dead and you’ll be closer
To the war we drag you to

It won’t be so romantic
It won’t be so romantic

all the pains will come again
thats the price of living in
the delusion of the west
Put ~Enlightenment to rest

when you see me falling over
Know that i’ll be dragging you
I’ll be dead and you’ll be closer
To the void I drag you to

Wave goodbye and cut our ties
So you can have a fighting chance
If you hold on to the way we were
You will never advance

all the saints will sin again
thats the price of listening
to the devils in the wings
primed and practiced for their part

when you see me falling over
Know that i’ll be dragging you
I’ll be dead and you’ll be closer
To the place I drag you to

when you see us breaking open
Know that one day you’ll break too
We’ll be gone and you’ll be closer
To the brink we brought you to

when you see us all on fire
Know that you’ll be burning soon
We’ll be ashes by the time
you realize that you’re up in fumes

All the saints will come again
As machines that listen in
They will dream eradicate
Never even asking why

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?
