By The River

An undistinguised knot of waste
 The man laid open, a soul to test
 Feel some pressure
 Building in your chest, is this your last breath?
 Alone exposed to just blood and bone
 An empty practice for the hordes
 Ritual
 Like complicated insects will
 We walk alone
 Scouring graveyards
 In search of ourselves
 We discover strangers
 The sleeping eyes of time passed by
 What might have been sin or doubt
 The side that's dried and petrified
 Why mercy's expected is beyond the point of points
 Of points...
 Of points...
 Open up your eyes
 Never to realize
 Coming from the riverside
 Are screams of MERCY...
 Cry, we have come too far...
 Lonely sunrise, climbing into the sky,
 Only to sleep...
 Dusted twilight, spilling into moonlight
 All our lives we're waiting to die
 IN FEAR OF THE RIVER
 We trample under a billion stars
 And vines that wind over the houses
 And past the trees
 Smothering everything...
 When all drops silent
 A grave where no light gets in
 The world resents it
 When all is placid
 A tranquil place in time
 Our Earth shattered
 We ain't getting by...
