Defense Mechanism

歌詞

The holy waters of the blackened seas A gulf that separated you and me The shadows as they weep A dog will chase its tail The beauty of creation is alien The solitude is your relief Sunlight through the wall Slamming of the door The snake curled up in sleep The rustle of the trees You swore you would return The hell is the others And the heaven is a hell It's my own It's my story All alone It's a defense mechanism Fight or flight Doesn't matter At least you're not asleep Your debts are paid in silver And your last coin's in the deep. You think you want a taste of madness? I think you know the taste of that wine… A tower shining white The stone within the plum Don't you know what they know? The devil hates the sun The brewer of the liars Won't need me for a while The killer wears a blue suit But I'm not wearing mine. Fight or flight It's my own It's my story All alone It's a defense mechanism Watch them go by tired All these beggars Stage is soaked with sweat And waltzing dead men Whistling in alleys Carpool tomorrows Sealed and stamped with sorrow Wasted, wounded Now that I kissed her Canned chatter Burnout gold dust Bury the dagger Cain and Abel Thoreau Now that I kissed her It's a defense mechanism
