about

lyrics

Conquered with distance, ruled in awe
Sacrificed meaning for holy war
Gave away bodies, to do as they please
Moments of substance defined with ease

Seen absolute trappings, closed every door
Played singular parts that are no more
Felt only impulse in times of need
Betrayal of instinct, idols took heed

I walked through fire with conquistadors
Banquished ideas, silenced them all
Like crucified saints and whores
Subdued requests, my love paramour

False gods lie above me

Heard cries from afar that judges abhor
Towering heathens from days of yore
Marked by departure, notes to retrieve
How the terms were hollow, if truly believed

I walked through fire with conquistadors
Banquished ideas, silenced them all
Like crucified saints and whores
Subdued requests, my love paramour

False gods lie above me

Needle eye, set aside, pure little lies
Matter may lead astray the poor and the wise
Metal line, jagged knife, swelling with pride
Counter claim, lie, abstain, govern and guide

False gods lie above me
