An Ordinary Extinction

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Do you feel at home in limbo?

Hiding a broken vow

A phantom at the window

Can you swallow the shame?

Has your courage been burnt out, faded away?

There won't be a saviour in sight, but it's okay

'Cause we're comfortable

We stood at the edge of the world

Seize the stakes

They're living a lie

Blinded by a candle, they're saying goodbye

We're stood at the edge of the world

When the clock runs down to zero

We'll stand up and take a bow

So quick to play the hero

Are you fanning the flames?

Are you torching the lighthouse stood in the way?

Complicity burning so bright, yet we delay

Are you culpable?

Seize the stakes

They're living a lie

Blinded by a candle, they're saying goodbye

We stood at the edge of the world

Drag the lake

When the water runs dry

We'll be slaves to the anchor, the Devil may cry

We're stood at the edge of the world

We stood at the edge of the world

Nothing is holy, we all take the blame

Crumbling slowly, the cliff face belongs to the ocean

So run for your life

Do you remember the tip of the spear?

The edge of the knife?

We're freshly dismembered but won't shed a tear

So run for your life

We stood at the edge of the world

Seize the snakes

They're living a lie

Blinded by a candle, they're saying goodbye

We're stood at the edge of the world

Drag the lake

When the water runs dry

We'll be slaves to the anchor, the devil may cry

We're fighting to stay alive, how can we all survive? No second chances

We stood at the edge of the world

We stood at the edge of the world, yeah

We're fighting to stay alive
