Cave In - Controlled Mayhem Then Erupts Lyrics
This moon was a planet just like earth,Only it is even deader.The pistols of its flowers are the only protectionAgainst insects, which wereMore preoccupied with theHalf-rotted inhabitants soiled to the brimUnder their own garments.History tells us of their bloodFlowing down one leg and up the other.Memories insoluble to their conscience,Memories outside themselves in a twisted prankPlayed upon them by dogsTired of chasing their food.Thin oxygen curves their posture substantially.Flashes of their purposeStripped to skeletal ornamentsOf meat and resin from animal marksFlicker over the loudscreen.Machines hum quietly in the distance.A few naive inhabitants wanderFoolishly after sundownIn search of black spots,But no one leaves this moon carefree of memory.Survivors often match their hands upwardTowards greater satellites,Wronged in the eyes by a million milesAnd a million more bodies to sift through.The smaller creatures have the secretTo pinning us down to the dirt:When they breathe, they inspire.When we breathe, we expire.
