Animus

Lyrics

Somewhere, through the frozen fields
 Somewhere, beneath your pale and tender skin
 Lies a house, absorbing fear and pain
 Solar, red, contained, feeding on my dreams
 ♪
 Somewhere cold, inside the optic wire
 Down where fingers and semen crack and bleed
 There, I will be with my arms spread out and broken
 Waiting for your breath to animate my veins
 ♪
 We're not alone, all our thoughts are numbered
 Malignant and cold, animal and hungry
 But I will contain all that ever was or will be
 Then, I'll watch my skin erupt in a symphony of flames
 
 Screaming out your name
 ♪
 Screaming out
 Why can't I hide inside your malleable, electric face?
 You'd suck away the pain and swallow down my sickest dreams
 Now, my body feels like snow spilling out the shattered screen
 Where will we be then, when all the fear and blood are gone
 Drained into one hundred million open children's mouths
 Screaming out your name
 ♪
 Screaming out
 Screaming out
