The Agonist - Gates Of Horn And Ivory lyrics

rate me

Craving possession

Material obsession

You function solitarily

On lower brain transmission

You want it, you need it

You're never gonna get it

Cause really what you're chasing

Is a lie to begin with

Paralyze

Manufacture aspiration

Design the ideal outcome

Would you like to hear your story?

All this time you've played the part

A part that was chosen just for you

Bite down on the painless

Enter the gates of Horn and Ivory

With fire at my back

I will tame the waters

I will learn to swim

Fear is not my master

With fire at my back

I will tame the waters

I will learn to swim

Fear is not my master

Instrumental

How do I breathe?

You will choke

How do I walk?

You will fall

Instinct to the extinct

Paralysis by analysis

Trapped in delusions

Ghosts are out to haunt you

The world you've grown to love

Is slowly crumbling

You need it, you want it

You're never gonna get it

Cause really what you're after

Is a fictional desire

With fire at my back

I will tame the waters

I will learn to swim

Fear is not my master

With fire at my back

I will tame the waters

I will learn to swim

Fear is not my master

Enter the gates of Horn and Ivory

Enter the gates of Horn and Ivory
