Silver Screen Lyrics

An eye stares through the cup's handle

Begging for response

To forlorn looks that bait the room

A spy's reconnaissance

It's met with petty gatherings

That shoulder the strain

Of most inconsequential lies

That say we all feel the same

But everything is put aside for the gathering

While the end of man plays on the silver screen

The leather houses but a single solitary soul

A stenching racket crying out for someone to hold

And when it falls upon deaf ears

Relief is seldom felt

Her wishes growing louder still

Dig holes where saints have knelt

But her bludgeoned ears and weary mind

Won't hear the angels sing

While the end of man plays on the silver screen

Neon advertisements drag the addicts out to a light

An idol false in giving hope

Survives upon their plight

Its spell survives through midnight's chime

And plants a poison kiss

It makes them fell such love today

But tomorrow they wouldn't be missed

So consume to fill the void until your bursting at the seams

While the end of man plays on the silver screen

Flaming reels of gaunt visage will penetrate your brains

Harrowing the weaker wills till only fools remain

Tattoos brand the outliers and discard them where they lay

Their tongues are cut, their throats are crushed

So we can share our dismay

But the present peace shall slip away

Like water to a stream

While the end of man plays on the silver screen

While the end of man plays on the silver screen
