AMPLEXUS LYRICS

1. Come On In


Steady your heart baby this one might hurt
The buildings are burning, the people will fall down
Momentum relentless so steady the senses
The exit wound's fresh he's keeping his distance

Bleed on my floor
And take back your old habit
Just like a friend searching for heaven too soon
And I will find your remnants
When you are gone
Blow through the glass cut straight to the hole

Steady your heart baby this one might hurt
The buildings are burning, the people will fall down
Momentum relentless so steady the senses
The exit wound's fresh he's keeping his distance
Do the artsy thing and die
Someone unprepared will find you
The best surprise is on the unprepared

My hope grows no older
Reality keeps its distance
Could I turn back time
Take back a wasted life?
Or do we only get one ?
Only so much can be forgiven
So lets pretend it's supposed be this way

Steady your heart baby this one might hurt
The buildings are burning, the people will fall down
Momentum relentless so steady the senses
The exit wound's fresh he's keeping his distance
Do the artsy thing and die
Someone unprepared will find you
The best surprise is on the unprepared

I wasn't there
These walls they have eyes
They have seen your demise
They've witnessed the loss of all hope
And I wasn't there

I wasn't there
No warnings, No screams
You cut loose all your dreams
This cant be the end you had planned
And I wasn't there

We were so unprepared


2. The Escape


If I get another chance
I'll read lots of books
That talk about humanitarian thought
Since we're speaking in theories
"Me and the devil put our cards on the table"
What we have here is a conflict of interest
If we make a move maybe we pull this off

And in the eyes of a broken man
This is the bottom we've reached it
And in the eyes of a broken man
I know this place isn't for me

"Abdicate the throne the peasants are making their move
Planning escape
Remember there's no celebration
They must fall"

"We will shed a tear for bones of those who tried and failed
It is for certain they had passion in there hearts"

He deals not in handshakes or promises
He takes what you need
We must escape

"Abdicate the throne the peasants are making their move
Planning escape
Remember there's no celebration
They must fall"

"(Remember) March in time men
(Keep Fighting) you must want redemption
(In spite of) more than ever this night
(The footsteps behind us)"

The sun has hastened the escape
Never dance with the devil in the pale moonlight
The sun is setting
Lower the white flag
Salute the sun and don't look back
(This is our only chance, when will we find the sun?
The sun is setting can we go on?)

I see through the eyes of a broken man
This is the bottom we've reached it
(March in time men. Passion in your hearts)
I see through the eyes of a broken man
This is the bottom we've reached it
(Burn down the white flag, this is our chance)

I see the sun
Through the eyes of a broken man
(It's right there. It's the sun. It's the sun.)
It's the sun


3. Canaries In A Coal Mine


How long will this last
Falling deeper in my invented self.
Don't feel like a real person anymore
Mannequin with their moving eyes follows me there
My consciousness is meaningless the list it never ends

Who can I trust?
Certainly not myself.
Its seems that I've misplaced the very reason why I'm here.
Untethered losing shape
Too dull to cast a doubt
The tracking button that cleared the lines is on the fritz again.

Falling deeper in my invented self.
Don't feel like a real person anymore
Mannequin with their moving eyes follows me there
My consciousness is meaningless the list it never ends

My confusion is a flood
And I am ill equipped.
Can I tread water with no help from my arms or my legs?
I'm not a liar,
but it seems every part of me is fake.
I'll take what's left of me in petals I'll bring to my friends.

Falling deeper in my invented self.
Don't feel like a real person anymore
Mannequin with their moving eyes follows me there
My consciousness is meaningless the list it never ends

I only see through the glass darkly and nothing else
And the little that I know
Can I count on that?

Falling deeper in my invented self
The death of knowledge of existence is where it ends
Take a bow
You were stunning
A footnote of our kind

But don't you think you've had enough
Of all of these lucid dreams
And I will keep this for my friends
Move on and serve a different purpose now
And I will keep this for my friends

This place has become unsafe
I'm your canary in a coal mine
It's unsafe. It's unsafe here
It's unsafe
I will warn my friends


4. Sleepwalking Atheist


Don't you trust that wicked lie
(THEY SELL FOR FREE)
Human hangers are just nature's novelty.
I'll protect you make good with all I have
(WE WONT LOSE THIS FIGHT)
I'll remind you

Here is the truth
Your mirror is the falsest god you'll ever know.
It has no soul and envies the pulse beneath your throat.
But gods they die slow
Before we commit deicide
Trust your eyes
And I will not let you fall.

It's not fair in the way that you judge your self
They parade bones and skin on the cover page.
If we have to choose deicide
(IF THAT'S WHAT YOU NEED)
God is biting the curb.

Just say the word and ill dance through glass,
Cut through the pain to show you how it teaches resolve,
I wont let them hollow out your hope

But gods die slow
Before we commit deicide
Trust your eyes
And I will not let you
Fall despite where you might jump from.
Gods will fall before I let you disappear inside this syndrome
(I'VE COME FOR YOUR BLOOD)
Idols made of conceit will meet their end.

I've climbed through the skies
And I stand here before you
Have you not heard me pleading?
This is the way this story ends

So I've come for your blood
And whatever else there is
I'm not taking your jive this is deicide,
Yeah, your gonna pay for your wicked tongue,
Bleed you till your bone dry.


5. Sunset On Neptune


Right now
They say they'll cover you with culture
Right now
Until it all falls down
Right now
And then they'll bury you with nothing
Right now
Before you turn around.

Don't go I am not finished yet.
I am only half drawn.
His nerves are shot but his fingers are
Well they're as sharp as ever.

If this could end in a way that's sure to be painless.
I'll close my eyes while we tarnish the meaningful
The perfect representative to all of our aversions
All that fuss from such a little cut

Stuck in this town of phobias
He has not grace but he's all heart
I am complete and not alone
And I made this just for you

If this could end in a way that's sure to be painless
I'll close my eyes while we tarnish the meaningful
The perfect representative to all of our aversion.
All that fuss from such a little cut

You can't touch anything without destroying
You can't touch anything without destroying it
You can't touch anything at all
You can't touch anything without destroying it
You can't touch anything
Go away. You don't belong here. We're better off

All that blood from just that little cut
Has sent us sprawling backwards to Jurassic days
There is no tolerance for those with different ways
He wouldn't hurt a fly
But he'd protect the ones he loves
He would die for them and always be in the snow.
If this could end in a way that's sure to be painless
If this could be painless


6. Interlude (This Used To Be A Planet)




7. She Has His Fathers Eyes


This is not my home
I'll take my chances on my own again
This is not my home
Your addictions took all they will from me.
Coming home with dishonest intentions,
insanity fueling the strength in your lies (in your eyes)

Tell me who I'm lying next to,
I would save you, do the same thing.
Tell me who I'm lying next to,
you know your words will fail.

Tell me have you forgotten that I,
Forgotten that I carry this with me,
And you do the same?
So I'll place the blame on you,
Coming home with dishonest intentions,
Insanity fueling the strength in your lies (in your eyes)

Tell me who I'm lying next to,
I would save you, do the same thing.
Tell me who I'm lying next to,
You know your words will fail.

We have been through this before,
Can't you figure it out?
You are making this so hard for us if we plan to go on.

Time and time again, words don't mean a thing.
You make this so hard for both of us. Just take a look at you, you make this so...

Tell me who I'm lying next to,
I would save you, do the same thing.
Tell me who I'm lying next to,
You know your words will fail.


8. The Handbook For The Recently Deceased


I swear I felt the earth move
Do we still exist?
My hands are gray and foreign
The sand beasts have a violent glare
We are just smoke and mirrors
Our substance beneath the dust in our wedding's finest
We die and they live

I swear you cast a lovely shade on my eyes
It's all in my head, we didn't survive?
We die and watch them live
For one hundred twenty-five years
We find a way to live for one hundred twenty-five years
This is so surreal

A soul dispossession and we've been evicted
The life we were building it no longer stands
We'll haunt with a vengeance.
Persist through the ages.
We just want our home back. why won't you go?

Will we be together? I think not. but hold my hand.
Gazing into the starlight we know fright
Let's watch them squirm...

Has it ever occurred to you that there are things that can never be taught?
And it's not that they're faster or stronger, they're just born with a little extra
When our time is over, we'll go hand in hand.

I swear you cast a lovely shade on my eyes
It's all in my head. we didn't survive?
We die and watch them live
For one hundred twenty-five years
We find a way to live for one hundred twenty-five years
This is so surreal

A soul dispossession and we've been evicted
The life we were building it no longer stands
We'll haunt with a vengeance.
Persist through the ages.
We just want our home back. why won't you go?

You're so beautiful as you waste away.
As we stand here with death
I will never forget
So grind the chalk against the wall
And venture down the sideways hall.

We die and watch them live
For one hundred twenty-five years
I will never forget


9. Savage Henry


I will strike down with great vengeance and furious anger.
Those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.

And you walk free blood on your hands.
The night hides you now but a red sun will rise

I know I'd find you. cower and pray.
Here is the bargain: my soul for your head
And there's no turning back

Don't turn away,
You know there's no escape.
Now I'm taking my time with you oh so carefully.
Justice fails us all
Your sentence is now
What you've done couldn't go without punishment.

The sun beating down.
This will be easier now
Strike down with no regret.
Tears mixed with beading sweat
My footsteps seem distant but sure that there is no returning.

I knew I'd find you. cower and pray.
Here is the bargain: my soul for your head

Don't turn away,
You know there's no escape.
Now I'm taking my time with you oh so carefully.
Justice fails us all
Your sentence is now
What you've done couldn't go without punishment.

And your day has come
You deserve everything you get

The innocent they call when no one's listening.
The innocent they call me

Don't turn away,
You know there's no escape.
Now I'm taking my time with you oh so carefully.
Justice fails us all
Your sentence is now
What you've done couldn't go without punishment.

Don't you run away from me
Take our time

You poison our existence and my hands are the cure.
I'm seeking retribution, this violence I deal is called for.


10. The Reasons Are Legion


Jerk the wheel to the side and jump the guard rail
Let's find out what it's like to truly soar
Do I take myself so seriously?
I'm just some organs with a beat

Fire like hell a barrage of questions
Impatience suits me well.
I'm in the front of the class and I'm listening close
But my hand is beating the air.
All I know is that I just want the answers.
Let them wash away the panic the anxiety of what will be.
Have we seen what beasts us men can be?

Can you see the same holes that I can see in myself?
Doesn't life seem full of thirst?
All I know is that I just want the answers.
Let them wash away the panic
The anxiety of what will be.

Coming clean. You need to know
When the siren calls. I'm inclined to go
Could I turn away if glory casts me to the road again?
We are blind to our told fortunes
Am I self aware or unaware of the cost
Of my perfectly framed dreams.
Have we seen what beasts us men can be?
Can you see the same holes that I can see in myself?
Doesn't life seem full of thirst?

Sometimes I think I'll never open up my eyes again
Light will find its way back in
Light will find its way back in.

Coming clean. you need to know
That the siren calls. I'm inclined to go
Could I turn away if glory casts me to the road again?
We are blind to our told fortunes
Am I self aware or unaware of the cost
Of my perfectly framed dreams.
Have we seen what beasts us men can be?
Can you see the same holes that I can see in myself?
Doesn't life seem full of thirst?

Light will find its way back in


11. We Killed Like Champions


Paint the acropolis
Trash your treasures
A graffiti mess rising crisis
The ground is aching to collapse
If we stay here we just will not survive
It's panic time
Be our white-winged dove
Bring back an olive branch of dry land

The World aching to collapse
Though the plan is improbably clear
And so are the people attached
The outcome's concealed
Hope is short it's part of our craft
And we stand for the hope of all those who look towards the sky

We're pensive.
"We're never going to make it there. You're insane to think again that we would"
"I'm not insane. talking makes it feel better. Gives you something more to hope for "right?"

The ground aching to collapse
Though the plan is improbably clear
And so are the people attached
The outcome's concealed
Hope is short it's part of our craft
And we stand for the hope of all those who look towards the sky
"We've finally arrived... we just might survive"
"But though we may live our past will die with no choice.. but extinction will be their fates"

Stand up and build a world that mirrors your own
Stand up it's not your fault you must carry on

"Strive to find a way to thrive"
"We aren't alone. We are not alone"

The world is aching to collapse and with the people still attached
Our hope is short it's part of our craft
Go through the motions just to last
Sober up on failure. it's real.
Capture this moment. recover. make amends

"And now that I know it's the road we must take, it's all come so clear the war I must wage"
"Remember this day for it is yours for all time. stand and face the morn"
"Cause minutes and moments will all turn to years, and loved ones we've lost; a world of my fears"
"Remember this day for it is yours for all time. stand and face the night"
"Can't be afraid that this moment is here. been silent so long. we'll rise or we'll fall"
Remember this day it is yours for all time.

Sober up on failure. it's real.
Capture this moment. recover. make amends


12. The Pygmalion Effect


Oh we're dying we're dying the slowest of deaths
Sad to say that this is the end and you know
Oh we're dying we're dying the slowest of deaths

So I give way
She comes with expert timing
(This is the day she lured me to)
Her sharpened shears press the life line dry.
(This is the way the strings were cut)
I'm minus protest. I've seen this day, It's all arranged
I am I am not afraid of slow death

(Oh we're dying we're dying a slow death, sad to say that this is the end my friend)
It's all arranged
So move along like we're turning the page.
That we are merely improve of blood and cells
The fact we have the gift of dreaming is incredibly presumed
It's wrongly assumed that there's no
There's no equal exchange
For us to receive something else must give way.
(So I give way)

Oh we're dying we're dying the slowest of deaths
(She comes with expert timing)
(This is the day she lured me to)
Sad to say that this is the end and you know
(Her sharpened shears press the life line dry.)
(This is the way the strings were cut)
Oh we're dying we're dying the slowest of deaths
(She comes with expert timing
Her sharpened shears press the life line dry)

So move along like we are turning the pages
Move along like we are finding the next great adventure

This is it.
How could I foresee?
It's more real than I ever dreamed
Take my hand, you're a part of this
Though you tried to place holes in my guard

So move along like we are turning the pages
This is the way the strings were cut
I am not in awe
This has all been arranged

I knew a day like this would surface
And now you confront me?
I made this right.
There's no shame
I lived for the moments that couldn't be ignored

A new strand is spun, measure and cut
A new strand is spun, measure and cut.

So move along like we are turning the pages
This is the way the strings were cut
I am not in awe
This has all been arranged
So move along like we are finding the next great adventure

I knew a day like this would surface
And now you confront me?
I made this right.
There's no shame I lived for the moments that couldn't be ignored.

Steady your heart baby this one it might hurt
Steady your heart baby this one it might hurt

This whole thing is real
This whole thing is real

We make the day, a new horizon is born.
Move along like we're having our say
We choose our fates. We make our dreams.

We choose our fates. We make our dreams.
We choose our fates. We make our dreams.

And we make this Real
