Glory, Glory! Apathy Took Helm!
We die once our bodies fail our mind But we disappear when our minds leave your memories Memories Memories Fog clings desperately to the ground Fog clings desperately to the ground A second death burns hotter than the first We die once our bodies fail our mind But we disappear when our minds leave your memories Fog clings desperately to the ground A second death burns hotter than the first Tell me who I am if you're all knowing The arbiter of moral purity Who's never admitted defeat Who's never atoned for mistakes Your patron saint of perfection You've canonized the lies You use as a scripture Of your sanctimonious virtue You've canonized the lies Your patron saint of respectability I am not the harbinger Tell me who I am Tell me who I am Tell me who I am Tell me who I am Tell me who I am Tell me who I am Tell me who I am Tell me who I am Tell me who I am Tell me who I am Tell me who I am Tell me who I am Harbinger of nothing Harbinger of nothing Harbinger of nothing Harbinger of nothing Harbinger of nothing

You are lost One by one As you sink As you suffer You will know Just how far You have left You are lost One by one One by one As you sink Into lethargy Giving in Letting go When the path is unclear A lifetime of expectation built on generations of accusation You'd adopt the attitude of a storm But the storms want nothing to do with you You'd do well to take heed of the subtlety of The winding stream, of the spider of subversion The champions of your past conquered nothing And neither will you You carved your name deep in the earth Those crevices will echo your shame Symbols cut clear and blod Those crevices will echo your shame No room for ambiguity Those crevices will echo your shame In time it will crumble and decay Those crevices will echo your shame No longer plagued by the grinding of your spirit All you have doubted your future was clouded No longer plagued by the grinding of your spirit All you have doubted your future was clouded You cannot act with conviction when the path is unclear You'd cast aside and turn away You'll bare the light You'll wear your shame You'll never hide We'll carve your name Sink, suffer, regret, shame Sink, suffer, regret, shame Shame You cannot act with conviction when the path is unclear

The vessels of your sin The shamed you've broken down They will not bear your burden The vessels of your sin The shamed you've broken down They will not bear one Shred of your disgrace Shred of your disgrace Bow, and open yourself to what is to come And open yourself to what is to come For I have lost my youth and joy For I languish inside of sadness For my heart is full of scorn For my heart is full of scorn For I have lost my youth and joy For I languish inside of sadness For my heart is full of scorn For my heart is full of scorn I pray you, disloyalty Blowing through the streets and the valleys Of my restless mind Of my eldritch thoughts I pray you, disloyalty Blowing through the streets and the valleys Of my restless mind Of my restless mind Of my eldritch thoughts Of my uncertainty Apathy claws at our doors Talons made of burdens and blights Apathy claws at our doors Talons made of burdens and blights Scratching, mawing, persistent All we care for is rotten and rich Apathy claws at our doors Talons made of burdens and blights Scratching, mawing, persistent It shall devour I'm no better Torn of the same cloth Shrouded in ignorance and flesh, shrouded Apathy Let it in Apathy claws at our doors Let it in It shall devour I'm no better Torn of the same cloth Shrouded I awoke with the resolve to move a mountain I want to be like those before me Who screamed into the great unknown Saying "We will not stand for this" "We will not be bystanders, we will not stand idly by" Sleep soundly Tread lightly Sleep soundly Tread lightly In ignorance and flesh, shrouded You who has never slept
