scared eyes don’t blink lyrics
bridges don’t burn they crumble. pavements return to jungle
humans, they stumble. scr*pe away unique skin for their version number
make way for the tundra, underneath the clawed feet there’s the mind of a hunter
pr*ne, it’ll wait so patient watching as everything is torn asunder
this gift of consciousness marches us backwards and watches us
mocking us, f*cking monsters just toppling this rock on top of us
what should we do but stop and just climb aloft of these monuments
carved of this earth in obvious primitive worship of gods and it’s
sick that we nevеr learned as a unit that we’rе alone on this body circling this star
and that life ain’t born of the stone and with so many minds attacking this problem we could’ve grown
and hit galaxies now so distant that we’re just too old to leave home
and it’s our own destruction, denounce those thoughts and crush them
well f*ck them, it’s no excuse to say that as humans we must believe in something
just look upwards. all the proof you need is above us
then take africa and say your god let’s those people die through a lack of sustenance
this rock will spin, rhythmic in a perfect orbit swing
dancing rings around a siren that sings, until she calls it in
furnace absorbs the thing that gave the fire its name
we called it sun. and for one brief moment science gave us all some wings
two thousand years won’t touch it
our own survival rivals no past species does it?
equals nothing, mindset stuck on tribal
trends follow two decade cycles, people stop pushing
minds’ll wither. we just stop looking. born with a view for the suicidal
and so as i overlook this f*ck wit country nothing hits
go ahead and pull the switch, caring’s such a loveless b*tch
i’ll try on empathy and i’m stuck if that cap doesn’t fit
f*ck everything. let that next species sort through the cr*p and the dust that we kicked up
stand back and watch us sinking, we’re not living, just existing
take these hand wraps, i’m not swinging. i won’t fight while you’ve stopped thinking
perched on the brink in mourning as we’re falling, break through blinking
into a noose that’s twisting taught and pinching, choking, life force lifting
one last performance as the mask adorned now slips and breaks
the face, once adored is twisted as shards rip the stage
the props, they crumble as he grabs at them in fits of rage
pick up the slack, the rope becomes an ally as it lifts his weight
right there before you the actors hanging, you stand applauding
no sense of justice it’s just you’re caught in this self absorption
you give no thought to the plight, that you, the character’s caught in
no idea what’s real and what isn’t, self imprisonment forcing
you down deeper. pressing, keep pressing, highlight deep depression
twilight again, no sleep, restless, can’t switch off you keep on questioning
life, like seconds tick to death and it’s all you can do just to beat your breath to it
inhale, still alive, i’m left with nothing else but a sense of regret for everything
because scared eyes don’t blink, and mine don’t either
if these are the last words i’ll breathe i’ll leave knowing that i did all i could do, that i couldn’t breathe deeper
couldn’t exhale more words that meant more when sent and received by all of these people
all i ever had was a mic, so un*godlike, just retreat into the ether
made in the image of a conclave, brainstorming the perfect god*face
a new saviour born on the top page of a book made to restore all the lost faith
and as it took shape it took hold of the cold and hungry and fear they could not shake
the information void got filled with the stories of rich men science can’t replace
and you’re still tied to that tether. told by the rich you’ll be fine up in heaven
millions over the ages all giving up lives for the stories and violence is weathered and wars that are waged
all in the name of a ghost, that easily science could sever
and let us move onwards, and if there is anything out there allow us to find it together
