lyrics

The third lost Mekanik pinned,
sub-crossed these battered walls.
Lost connections untethered forever…

Do these skins belong to me, tied still?
Passed these windows, followed shrill, and fell out. Oh…

Keep in mind dividends imparted unwell
led alive enemies impassionate swell!

Return path to the mishap,
you couldn't have known.
Cold hands gripped on a bottle
like one of your own.

Sell yourself to escape their murderous lies.
Watching over from the past, well there's nowhere to hide.
Shadowed soldiers march to silent radios:
"Now Red Son, well, it's time you're going home…"

Emotionless minutes pass
the forecast it subdivides.
Disengendered and jaded from way back.
Do these systemic sins fall off
as the world comes crashing down?
Endeavor to…

Keep in mind memories imparted unwell,
led alive reticence no one can foretell!

Return path to the mishap,
you shouldn't have known.
Cold hand gripped on a shoulder
like one of your own.

Sell yourself to escape their murderous lies.
Watching over from the past, well there's nowhere to hide.
Shadowed soldiers march to silent radios:
"Now Red Son, well, it's time you're going home.

Your warpath?
Faded, untrue!
But the evidence lacked…

Face towards the infinite,
bathe in the blood of it…
Come. To. Know. Your. Self.

Return path to the mishap,
you couldn't have known.
Cold hands gripped on a shoulder
like one of your own.

Sell yourself to escape their murderous lies.
Watching over from the past, well there's nowhere to hide.
Shadowed soldiers march to silent radios:
"Now Red Son, well, it's time you're going home!"
