Lyrics
Gates Of A Horn And Ivory
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.
Craving possession
Material obsession
You function solitarily
On lower brain transmission
You want it, you need it
You're never gonna get it
Cause really what you're chasing
Is a lie to begin with
Paralyze
Manufacture aspiration
Design the ideal outcome
Would you like to hear your story?
All this time you've played the part
A part that was chosen just for you
Bite down on the painless
Enter the gates of Horn and Ivory
With fire at my back
I will tame the waters
I will learn to swim
Fear is not my master
How do I Breathe?
You will choke
How do I walk?
You will fall
Instinct to the extinct
Paralysis by analysis
Trapped in delusions
Ghosts are out to haunt you
The world you've grown to love
Is slowly crumbling
You need it, you want it
You're never gonna get it
Cause really what you're after
Is a fictional desire
With fire at my back
I will tame the waters
I will learn to swim
Fear is not my master
Enter the gates of Horn and Ivory
