Tetragrammaton

Lyrics

Tell me it's over
 Rusbel awaits
 I've been to the surface
 And nothing is there
 Eyelids sank muffled
 In the nerve aura sound
 But when she awakes
 Will she still be with us
 My heart is darkclots
 Leap year is late
 How did you get here
 Ask all but the bait
 From a Christ that went hissing
 Constricting his cells
 We summon by candle by book and by bell
 Glossolalia coats my skin
 Glycerin and turbulence
 Stuffed the voice inside of God
 Mirrors to the animals
 Glossolalia coats my skin
 Glycerin and turbulence
 ♪
 The sermon goes mourning
 Pricking its hail
 Slothful the child
 That preys on the seed
 Shall behead the drought
 Wound under sleeves
 I hope you have room
 In a thicket of vines
 Give me a moment
 To claim what you've stole
 The streets will hang high
 Stretched ribs and let taste
 We'll cover the smell with silver nitrate
 Mending the cuts of your prosthetic faith
 ♪
 Glossolalia coats my skin
 Glycerin and turbulence
 Stuffed the voice inside of God
 Mirrors to the animals
 Glossolalia coats my skin
 Glycerin and turbulence
 Stuffed the voice inside of God
 Mirrors to the animals
 Then so long
 Dear mnemonic
 Assume the form
 You've given me and I'll spill
 Now hold on
 Just hold my hand
 Say that they made you
 But you brought your own leash
 Tell me no more, no,
 Say I'm the last one
 ♪
 Outside
 By the drift
 You read my will
 Of thread and itch
 Failure to comply
 As failure to decease
 And still you won't know everything
 I've built the fall
 ♪
 Sulking drained the fall of my pale will
 Swarming by your steps
 Licking the ankles of blasphemer guilts
 It only meant to drape a plastic
 Over the stuck pig scalp of head
 To cover the sock where the flatline had spread
 The kiosk in my temporal lobe
 Is shaped like Rosalyn Carter
 She says my map is home again
 But torn face down
 I have only but a million blemishes
 To tell you all about
 ♪
 In the end they just gagged me
 To make him come out
 Gas me the hind
 Of your five legged snare
 Tooth picks the eye
 But nothing is there
 Down drags your waltz
 Cross the altar top
 From a sleep that
 Deprivation knew
 Trespass your form
 I'm void of dusk
 I'd ask to look
 But the mask stays on
 You'll levitate
 Teutonic print
 Cruelty is the wrath
 Of my instrument
 In the end they just gagged me
 To make him come out
 ♪
 You locked the cuffs
 Arsenic erupts
 Will you drink the shadow
 Of my red hair
 You and your false
 Witness to God
 You've one in the chamber
 But your finger got stuck
 Let slip the sound
 Of a cry for help
 But all was lost
 On the night you walked
 Palms speak through eyes
 Serve your memory lost
 I contaminate with insignias
 In the end they just gagged me
 To make him come out
 Glossolalia coats my skin
 Glycerin and turbulence
 Stuffed the voice inside of God
 Mirrors to the animals
 ♪
 Wait till I get my hands on you
 I won't forgive a face that lift me
 Just you wait
 Till I get my hands on you
 I can't
 You won't remember
 (...)
 ♪
 Unwrap my corpse
 And let it thaw
 In the eye of the needle
 I can't get out
 They'll check my wrist
 I'll fake a pulse
 I'm not the human
 You thought I was
 If you pet the night
 Sixth pentacle dice
 If you role the seven
 St. Michael dies
 They'll be no ransom
 Don't shut my mouth
 I scald the answer
 You're afraid of
