Despair Church

When you realize

Where you are

Bar the windows, lock the doors

There's no hope

No escape

You're living in a spinning cage

Did they take away your very soul

Tell you every story has been told

Replace the image that was made

If you're certain than you'd put it in stone

It's the animus of cowardice

In the holy place of hopelessness

If you contemplate the infinite dream

Are you even sure that you exist

Did it touch a raw nerve, did the stars fall when you heard?

Peel away, a miracle every day

Will everything feel the same

The stars have fallen

Just give me one

I'll take the whole world away

Not even God can say

What's real you'd never know it now

Born in darkness of the infinite

Was there goodness that they hid within

Writhing monkey soaked in ignorance

Meant to struggle with significance

Bond to method then why don't you build it from stone

It's the animus of cowardice

In the holy place of hopelessness

A collision course with emptiness

Do you even care that you exist

Faustian pact complete

Pick the bones and feast

Build in stone if you dare

Invert all because no one cares

Never knowing

Which way is up

Are your feet on the ground

Is this heaven

What's the price of flesh per pound

In the animus of cowardice

In the holy place of hopelessness

If you contemplate the infinite dream

Are you even sure that you exist

Peel away

A miracle every day

Now everything feels the same

The stars have fallen

In the holy place of hopelessness

Are you even sure that you exist
