Lyrics
Ad Absurdum
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.
This dead orchestra
play on instruments
strung with the fibres
of my mind
And skeletons dance
they have no voice
and no complaint
But I am still flesh
and will not serve
you vampire fools
bringing you life
by invoking dead
I'm tired of telling stories
with this ghostvoice of mine
so you can say you don't
believe in ghosts
You drink me animal
wasted on my madness
leaving me blank and empty
But tonight
I'm Houdini
Gonna kill my shadow
penetrate your sanctum
See your loss
through your eyes
and laugh as two
you not knowing why
and wanting to die
