The Everlasting Gaze

You know I'm not dead



Now you know where I've been

As you sleep

Torn I am

Weighted down

Patiently

Born of love



You know I'm

You know I'm not dead

I'm just living in my head

Forever waiting

On the way of your desire

You always find a way

And through it all

Into us all, you move

Forgotten touch, forbidden thought

We can never have enough



You know I'm not dead



Found below

The creatures scream

Stranglehold

A God Machine

Begging to

Tear us out

Worn as hope



You know I'm

You know I'm not dead

I'm just the tears inside your head

Forever waiting

On the ways of your desire

You always find a way

And through it all

Into us all, you move

Forgotten touch, forbidden thought

We can never have enough

You know I'm not dead



We all want to hold in the everlasting gaze

Enchanted in the rapture of his sentimental sway

But underneath the wheels lie the skulls of every C.O.G.

The fickle fascination of an everlasting God



You know I'm not dead

I'm just living in my head

Forever waiting

Forever waiting on cruel death

You know I'm not dead

I'm just living for myself

Forever waiting



You know I'm not dead
