Lyrics:
The morning broke with eerie silence,
The ground beneath us cracked and dry,
Too self-absorbed to even notice,
The cracks that formed up in the sky.

Twisting, turning,
Freezing, burning,
Tearing, fusing,
Lucid, confusing,
Forceful rejection,
Open reception,
Dreaming and waking,
The process is taking too long.

Take what we need at our convenience,
Another quick means to an end.
Too busy thinking of excuses,
For a practice we cannot defend.

Collapsing under its own weight,
The sky burns out,
As we kiss oblivion,
Upon its toothy mouth.

Your well being does not concern us,
Any worries you must keep inside.
Do as we're told without a reason,
We never think to question why.

Collapsing under its own weight,
The sky burns out,
As we kiss oblivion,
Upon its toothy mouth.

We walk upon the fields of fire,
The smoldering bodies of our dead.
Our self-absorption is the reason,
It's the gun we point at our own heads.

Collapsing under its own weight,
The sky burns out,
As we kiss oblivion,
Upon its toothy mouth.
