Diverness Lyrics

These brief days of loneliness, I confess

Have left me with an aching uncompressed

This harsh monument, full of deeds

A lost and vacant soul doth follow me

And as you've bathed in sunlight

So shall you drown in weeds

A rigor mortis paycheck for your needs

A rigor mortis paycheck for your needs

Our empty crayon kingdom, undefined

Leaves us with an anchor for the blind

Leaves us with an anchor for the blind

Diverness. Diverness

A world that needs to see you above the rest

A world that needs to see you above the rest

And even as the meek run out of means

I feel an ancient craving in my dreams

We fill our mouths with sulphur

We fill our minds with schemes

And even at the end we kill our screams

Long, long, the night can only end with distress

We've pressed an iron vulture for our crest

We promise every future

But deliver only debt

We leave here just as bloody as the rest

We leave here just as bloody as the rest
