The toxic glow of this botched city Hums in time with my nightmares Murmuring sinister resonance The shocking and the shaping of air Trapped in a shivering carcass Part of a throbbing crowd Every space is constantly trembling Stay awake, lights go out
Time speeds up, I get older Get your dead hand of my shoulder
You are a present absence Spectral traces everywhere You set the darkness echoing Chair creaks, you're not there Vibration through my body It hits my chest and throat At the point of suffocation I let go
Time speeds up, I get older Get your dead hand of my shoulder
Deafening whispered threats Like an unknowable breath Rising in a hollow swell Shrill bloody red All streets are screaming empty Frequencies sing your ghost We've had our time together Now I've got to let you go
Time speeds up, I get older Get your dead hand of my shoulder Get your dead hand of my shoulder...
