lyrics

In a tropical sewer storm drain of tide
I'm hearing whispers, real unbecoming of my mind

All praise second sight,
loot what you can from the palace of night
hurry for the shelter of the sun

I took dreams which wandered
between the labyrinthine halls
strangled voices in a choir,
spider conflagration of my soul.
By the hills, corruption
seemed to touch the sky
from the lips of the serpent
I can see the dis-ease of the wise.

Glimmering diamonds, crystal crowns,
jeweled throne and silken gowns;
carry what you wish for if you can.

... and now the worm's still turning
I wish that it would lie.
For all the bridges burning,
seems to be no end to your demise.

... and now the wind is blowing
and the windows cry
for the things you're hoping.
All that lives is doomed to never die.

All praise second sight,
loot what you can from the palace of night
hurry for the shelter of the sun.
Glimmering diamonds, crystal crowns,
jeweled throne and silken gowns;
carry what you wish for while you can.
All razed. End of flight.
Shoot out heaven's balls of light
dizzy in the nightmare of the one.
Shimmering fragments, misted shroud
veiled bones in sickened gowns
careful what you wish for if you can.

Carlton Heston Atlanta, Georgia

If you're reading this - Gods of the Dead is the good one. Listen to that first if you're going to listen to anything on here. It's actually pretty solid.

Atlanta Monsters' Ball is also nice.
