Distracted in Tragedies
The Owl's Offering

Cosmic bodies Lie dormant on high Statues rotting Forgotten to time Burning temples Replaced by fascades Scriptures haunting The truth in the lie In the lie Sifting through the ruins for some sort of clue To find for myself some semblance of truth But overhead a burning and underfoot a flood Our creation myth undone We, we are the haunters in the dark An unwanted legacy Just an accidental drop into the primal sea Now disturbing the dreams Of some ancient god Who was once asleep, now thirsty for blood And now our tragic ending We do humbly invoke By fear of our failure Stones still left unturned cannot be thrown And so we take what we want In this garden's decay And we will eat from the fruit And proudly bare the burdens of our fate Cosmic bodies Now raging on high Statues rotting Rebuilt in new times Burning temples Encased in fascades Scriptures haunted By truth in their lies In their lies And all our lives will fade They'll slowly fade away They'll wax and they'll wane Towards a sure and certain grave Our lives will fade They'll surely fade away As they wax and wane Toward their new celestial grave This life's the one where I'll find it And take it with me on the day I die This life's the one where I'll find it And leave this curse behind I hope At least that's what I hope But nothing's guaranteed For me If this is what you want then I can always set you free Cosmic bodies Lie dormant on high Statues rotting Forgotten to time
