Malevich - Only The Flies lyrics



Tracks



01. Solus

Stay distant
Self centered
Exalt in an empty home
Wake up alone
Anxiety is
Waiting, holy,
Stay distant

02. A Light In The Darkness That Faded As I Approached

You'll never be alone
Carve those words into my side with broken glass.
"God wouldn't even touch this"
You take me in.
I have shaken hands with regret.
Stand by my side as I kiss oblivion.
I am
A fallen angel freezing in a thankless heaven

03. Always Loss

I lay next to you
Aching, half-awake
Your space consumed me
Blue and muted grey

You glowed between the blinds

I am vapid, i am idle, i am simple
Eat my flesh
Be whole
You are

04. Le Tout Bas

Every clear thought a victory
Sober & taut
Kneel at the gates of your cowardice
From absent minded want and
Anxious need
Defined by desire & longing
Freedom becomes weakness
Knowing, base

"Man fears the darkness and so he scrapes away at the edges of it with fire"

05. Perennial Self

Be damned in this perpetual state
Be damned in this perpetual state of war
Separate from self
Nothing satisfies
We can't hide from this
What truth lies
When the roots are cut
We are the absolute loss
Forgive me, forgive me
Forever lost in the spectacle

06. Doubt

God spoke to you
Breathing life
Breeding lies
The phone will always ring
I sit still
As your blood empties from my veins
You always leave me dry

07. Moult

"Illusions of unity, fertilized by love"
Hand in hand. We are truly alone
Cast aside what's been expected of us
When it all collapse
We are naked. Ashamed by our emptiness
No more, the desperate will break their dependency and drown our infatuation. Our dreams of monogamy, have no stable ground
What we build together
The connections we share
Will outnumber all of the times we have failed
Death to the old world
Return to the earth
We must find each other
Epoch of rebirth

08. Disassociated

Goodbye child
I'll let you sleep
Time destroyed my innocence
I'll watch all your love leave
You won't recognize, but these eyes
Forever haunted by your suicide
Bash my head into the mirror
Your reflection has taken mine
Locked myself inside this room
Memories circle like shadows
Mother, I'm covered in the family sin
The curse creeping up to my ear
Whispering "I can set you free"
I can save you
Now, bury me alive
I'll watch all the love drain from my body

09. Represented In Bondage

Barren minds
Lost significance
Longing for reason
Individual purpose
Stripped
Exchanged for a list of wants
Represented in bondage
Acting only in our dreams
We long for this
To resist
Burn past desires
Glory to the arsonists

10. Death Will Never Be Enough

Now she watches her every move
Shadows creeping closer
Bastard of creation
You will never face
What your lust creates
Humanity is plagued
With your breath
Death will never be enough
Because others will follow your path
We must rid your seed
We must cleanse your filth from our being
Cowardice man
Shedding skin
Your touch a memory
Crawl to your grave
As loneliness picks you apart
It circles like vultures
Only the flies will love you
