Lyrics The Agonist

The Agonist

Architects Hallucinate

Starlight darkens the edge of the blade

Made to perforate your true immortal state

(or will this be another cheap victory)

Raise your shield, break your arms

Today, there’s no reason to fight

So go ahead, and heal your wounds

Under artificial night skies

(You forgot to listen to yourself)

Test the waters, you will see

-dive deep-

Black eyes paralyze

- no sight -

At the foot of the bed they lie in wait

-weak mind -

Architects hallucinate.

The last one standing will be mine

I’ll swallow every piece of time

Life can bring no guarantees

Built my trenches, am I guilt free?

To forsake my harmless state

Will be my guide

I must try to find a better way

Vision blurs, senses heighten

Drowning in the finer pleasures

Architects hallucinate

Stairways to the surface

(or will the guilt keep weighing you down)

Shadows rising tall to consume you

The monster you embraced

(The monster you embraced)

Is a structure you must precipitate

The last one standing will be mine

I’ll swallow every piece of time

Life can bring no guarantees

Built my trenches, am I guilt free?

To forsake my harmless state

Will bee my guide

I must try to find a better way
