Restitution Lyrics

Lucid stillness from fear never settles a question

Time tide waits for no man

Trauma plays lurid trick's within our minds

And manifests into a torturous confusion

If I should stay within these walls until my time has come

I'd find myself in a fruitful void of restitution

Ensnared within a bloodless sanctum

Bleak walls that foretell a cosmic storm

For darkness shall soon glower upon he

Who basks beneath the pallor

Of the waning mother moon

Walking on top of this silent city finding peace within

As the moon sleeps beneath my footsteps I bide my strength

To the calming storm a thousand eyes gaze upon my conscience

A petal for every sin I've run out of lies to keep me veiled

I've run out of love to keep me warm

Such presence of mind and abstinence

A sentimental victim that has unfailingly been

Subjected to an arbitrary road to ruin to ruin

In restitution in my heart

This restitution this restitution

Walking on top of this silent city finding peace within

As the moon sleeps beneath my footsteps I bide my strength

To the calming storm a thousand eyes gaze upon my conscience

A petal for every sin I've run out of lies to keep me veiled

I've run out of love to keep me warm

Days grew short and nights grow long,

Surrender sun ocher dawn has come

Time has struck and it can't be undone

Reap the night with flesh and bone

Days defer and nights grow long,

Surrender sun ocher dawn has come

Time has struck and it can't be undone

Reap the night with flesh and bone

Such presence of mind and abstinence

A sentimental victim

Walking on top of this silent city finding peace within

As the moon sleeps beneath my footsteps I bide my strength

To the calming storm a thousand eyes gaze upon my conscience

A petal for every sin I've run out of lies to keep me veiled

I've run out of love to keep me warm

The wind cries constant treachery to the beating pulse of the night

I don't know what it wants from me but it's love sure feels alright

The righteous path remains jagged and beset by all repressed desire

A haunting tribulation like the embers that became the raging fire
