Artifex Pereo - The Golden Age lyrics

rate me

It's strange

It's no news to you

No longer delay the truth,

I've needed to push off for some time

Promise to keep your mind with you and I'll return your heart

But now it's time to find out about all with which I'm made

My fragments were scattered across every last shore

Within the efforts to create this now dissolving race

Ages ago we would die to

Further the whole but we've since forgotten our place

Patiently etching glass through scenes that make every day

A drift triangular bliss where every side equates

Creatures beneath have never counted a league,

Nor have they tracked the sun until it falls asleep

The wind picks up and the water is getting rough,

As I tread the angry earth's working brain

With each wave comes a chance of being erased

What's left of me is violently swept to land?

Land that I had taken for granted

My pieces were scattered across every last shore

When I tried my hand in the game.

Ages ago I promised I'd return your heart, whole

But it seems the plans have changed

Accidents aren't all the same

There are some that make you glad they came

Creatures beneath have never counted a league,

Nor have they tracked the sun until it falls asleep

The wind picks up and the water is getting rough,

As I tread the angry earth's working brain

With each wave comes a chance of being erased

Of being erased,to be let
