Lyrics for Song: Goddess Bound
Lyrics for Album: Fortress [2008]
Take everything your parents taught you, throw it to the dogs
It's forgotten flesh of something dead its blood drips from your jaws
Take everything your school has taught you, throw it to the dogs
It's meat that dries in summer heat and reeks now of its rot
It speaks now of the fate that we await, to be forgot
Just as mountains live outside of rocks and time itself outside of clocks
We hope that life exists beyond our lonely bones in the pine box
From the bottom of my heart,
At the top of my lungs,
From the corner of my eye,
At the tip of my tongue – it's everywhere, it's everything, everyone.
It's anywhere, it's anything, it's anyone:
The neighbour saving face by saying grace today for yesterday's behaviour,
Bound to tethers, girls in leather unveil the true face of his saviour
Live to fuck and fuck 'til death, drink to sorrow and regrets
Remember that which love begets is irony
that those who clasp their chests are lives
As yet unfinished as they gasp their final breath
