collapsing scenery - the grey cardinal lyrics

Loading...

you set fire to your own house
out like a lizard, but in like a mouse
you can’t tame the beast, the beast tames you
in the cardinal’s america, the swamp drains you

everywhere’s an end, and everywhere a middle
the means to an end: an unsolvable riddle
your traffic in the diction of gangster fiction
your boilerplate reads: “a perpetual friction”

‘every god is a god of death’
they draw you closer with every breath

your papa’s a monster, his p-sserine too
but everything which burns is not consumed
h-llfire won’t manage to turn them to ash
they nest in volcanoes, in mountains of cash

‘every god is a god of death’
they draw you closer with every breath

(why take care of the past
when the past couldn’t take care of you?)

waiting for a, a reischtag fire
a new world born out of a funeral pyre
bathe in the blood or incandesce
your soul or your body must experience death
that’s right

’cause ’every god is a god of death’
they draw you closer with every breath
yeah, ‘every god is a god of death’
they draw you closer with every breath, all right
