Artifex Pereo

Artifex Pereo - To Listen & Say Nothing lyrics

rate me

You insist that we were meant to be born this way

Something divine had it all in store

I suppose that your character was sketched within lines

That connect the fortune you comprise with all the health that you possess

In a lavish nest so tightly knit

Pronounce your gratitude, unleash your black and blue

Hark the angelic choir

And if I told you right now not all was in your reach

You just wouldn’t know what to think

You just wouldn’t know what to think

Oceans away, a child contends for a better chance

And if I told you, young son, about a place we can go

Where there's nothing you can think of that you aren't allowed to speak of

You wouldn't know what to think

How are you so sure that all of this was made

With hands that sculpted you and laid your path?

What an incandescent light to have fall into your lap

What about the holes? They're swallowing the overmatched

Plight cascades down circumstance

I'll never see through this mess

We've one foot left on a balancing beam

In a teetering scene too grand for our heads to collect

Masses beneath engulf the canon into pits of desperate attempts to unearth the truth

The reasons not meant to comprehend

And we're fooled to think that we are more than ignorant at best

Our backs were made stiff while our stomachs remain buoyant

Are we to lay down and become paths for all the rest?

The only thing wrong here is believing that we are right

How are you so sure that all of this was made

With hands that sculpted you and laid your path?

What an incandescent light to have fall into your lap

What about the holes? They're swallowing the overmatched

Plight cascades down circumstance

I'll never see through this mess
