The Death Caps Grow

[Zeno's Bullet]

Lyrics I am working on:


Porcelain city cracked with grime
Tattered to the point of pieces falling off
Aged blackened gnarled times
Arabesque winds will blow beyond the rough
Patches of this land will burn
leaving only tiles of taint and passing cars
Swift control with pelting scorn
Watch the rain warp like a bursting neutron star

The skyscraper heap
Of metal that weeps


Where the death caps grow
What escapes the undertow
Where the death caps grow
We'll hide ourselves where the seeds will sow

I feel my face about to break
Under rubble pressure and the mausoleum light
Searching through dark lemniscate
Picking up tomes and pieces of the plight
Ashes burn and rust entwines
Drowning of the phoenix inside the elder walls
I rebirth from the boulder shrine
Fetal escape outside the ancient halls

I'm the subtle heap
Of flesh that weeps

(Refrain)

Bridge:

Where lightning heals the fawn
Where earthquakes build the road
Where dustbowls feed the crops
Where our dead seeds will sow

(Solo)

(Refrain)

(Coda)
