You've been torn between opposing forces
The drag of this contingent event is unbearable because of these tectonics that shift beneath your feet
It is arrogant to disregard and foolish to turn away

An ignorant bliss does not exist in a reality that ceases to live
You are falling forward while falling back
Too adorned with blemishes that hide the facts


This world around you is drifting through an ocean that despises you
And the continent is not content with being connected

You're relative
Until torn and tattered, departed and disgraced
The life you contrive will have no place


Beget and begotten, your will erased
Its geography has been razed

You are falling forward while falling back
Too adorned with blemishes that hide the facts
You've been torn between opposing forces

Until torn and tattered, departed and disgraced
The life you contrive will have no place
Left with only soil beneath your fingernails from the potter's field

Six feet under lay the vaulted graves of bodies that didn't yield

This world around you is drifting through an ocean that despises you

And the continent is not content with being connected
You're relative
Six feet under lay the vaulted graves of bodies that did not yield
