Given In To The Taking

first blood on the civic corrosion

they crawl in the sin of children

high hopes come along in the riddle loose

crossroad motion from a stiff at the vine

longhaul learnings to parade in the heat

lessons lean in a click from the turnsite

blinding tone of morals in minors nest

sits the cancer all ready for trimming

curiosity vicious in action

while the crowd screams

on tagious conspired performance

love in the motion

love in the unknown

see it to believe it

smiling killer, swooning stranger

herd, hazard, the heretic

given in to the taking

something wicked in the land of the lost

adaptation from life in the swells

tiny vipers fanged tight to the nerves

blood worms - host shifts the war to the stage

prowling to haze battles in curses

no gods to speak, no answers to tame

show the sorrow disguised in red roses

sent as fault in benevolence

send them everything to end formality

and be aware of who is listening close

given into the talking
