Epiphany Lyrics

Opalescent steel grey eyes reveal to me the amber encased insect's sleep
My love she's sated in throes of r.e.m. sleep I lean to the window and peer through the blinds to the crooked tree while its gnarled roots corkscrew through the sidewalk in a sentient effort to take flight.
Malnourished on sewage,maladapted to the sickly pall of the street lamp's jaundiced eye.
I am beside you this sheltering night as your fingers weave through mine.
Teeth are clenching right.
Forcing back nystagmic flutters.
Sleep's enticing ties and tethers.
Here is where it all comes to end.
Shall we pretend we are not human closing chapter in the years of the full moon.
Downtown they're dragging in the river where the waters wind and wend about the factories.
This is the place where all dreams come to end.
Open your eyes, open your eyes, open your eyes: open them up.
This is a sacrifice.
Open your eyes, open your eyes: open them up.
Rise: rise up and murder love.
This is the place where all dreams come to end.
This is a sacrifice.
Sacrifice: rise up and murder love.
