Ebb and Flow

Fading while
You awake with eyes shut
And the night is just static
Tracing through motions
They repeat
Blame this void
They're stuck in decay, it's no one talking but you
In this ebb and flow
Just get replaced, there's no one burning but you

They're painless, enclosed in
And already grafted
Like they're writhing, vexed
There is no grace
Cut these ropes
They don't see the curse they hold
I see what they've lost, and
Nothing ever turns their mold
Just cut the yarn down

It's like a hole in their faces, right through
Herded into spaces, tied
It's like a venture on a möbius strip
My eyes are the only ones awake
For one last ride

Fading while
You awake with eyes shut
And the night is just static
Tracing through motions
They repeat
Blame this void
They're stuck in decay, it's no one talking 'bout you
In this ebb and flow
Just get replaced, there's no one burning but you

You lose yourself
It's in your eyes, that fleeting light
Within their eyes, they're gone

There's something pulling them down, it's like they don't bother
Cut through the static, nothingness holds them
And it's never been seen, it's never uncovered
It's the way that they crawl, the way that they falter

And you're fading while
The city's silent
And the night is just static
Watching through stasis
Out of view
Blame this void
We're stuck in decay, it's no one talking 'bout us
Lost in ebb and flow
