Rise and Fall

Lyrics

Another victim of the rise and fall Standing naked in the pastures where we graze Sterile in a darkened pall Picking pockets of the strangers all the way Signed off with a cynical sound Like a chime in a bell so far away There's a light in the scyllia there Just where our tarnished virtue lay I tore a page from every tome upon the wall Researched a photograph to find my place to fall So many celebrated victories of pride I watch the tide erase the lies down from inside The lies down from inside If i gaze long enough into the tortured sky Parading arrogance in terms we can't deny Or is it all in my mind Mistakes arising implicitly In light of factions to desperate to fold And the blind lead the blind [2x] The lights have all gone out [2x]
