lyrics

The storm recedes.

C. There is truth in words like there is truth in hate
For every sick child that finds their sickness gently
Caressing the sickly core of them. It can’t be
Truth, but every searing word burned harder than
The weak misery that flamed before. Every
Auxiliary temple has left us in ruins,
Rigid and lifeless and left to sleep. Mannequins
And Marquis with emotion, no less than fear, with
Pity and silence, and love is emblazoned on
Each and every chest, though there is none here.

A. And here
Is the stench of wretched flesh and ordinary
Thoughts. Where is my dignity? Where is this mankind?
There is the scant scent of femininity in
The air, which I would call dissention. And here I
Shall allow none of it, no callous disregard,
There will be no more immorality, no bad dreams.
With these hands, with these often over-laden hands…
