Guise Lyrics

Bright lights flashing, burning up averted eyes

Fractured freeways fabricate under blackened skies

Cold emptiness wears the skyline's neon guise

Tires cling to pavement, saying their goodbyes

Eyes are open, none beyond

Can we save those who've withdrawn

Eyes are open, mind is gone

Who is there to rely on

In the hour when everyone is a sleep

Walls will crack and through the floorboard darkness seeps

One foot in will test to see if it's too deep

Hold your breath or inside your heart it will creep

Big smile seeming friendly

Arms open to greet me

Words assuring safety

I know that this can't be

Kneeling with us when it's rolling

But the fog parts when they're going

Stagnation the raven will sing

Discord is all that this will bring
