lyrics

This wicked faith, as if it were fate
hold to belief, the sun will rise again

It would be nice to be so certain of permanence
to have the will to face all the emptiness
but if we have a purpose, then I think it's
to stop and think. How does it end?

first comes the light, and then the sound
defies belief, we are left blind and weak

and only then do we finally see
the message sent and how we took the bait
you can't imagine the enormity
we are stunned, yet somehow unafraid
little oysters, come and walk with me
now all that's left is the certainty

they came to sate their hunger, they need to feed

We were played for fools
and we brought home the wolves
our kingdom come
we were promised truth
but in truth they came
to eat the sun

A Dallas Welcome recommends:

Black Mass Hysteria
by Knives Out!

Members of Dog Fashion Disco, Polkadot Cadaver and Nothingface. A little bit more 'normal' than some of those bands, but all the cooler because of their other influences. The second album is also out! A Dallas Welcome
