Too Fast to Die lyrics

Too fast to die Lift me limb from rotting land tonight Into your falling astral sea Nor the nailed feet into the ground Nor the sand and blood we eat Will ever weigh us down enough To bring us aid this eve The sky has come to claim a debt from me Did you keep us watch for the end of man Centuries gone in a second Let your cable down into the last alive to cauterize their death Lest we beg to fall Deny our weak mechanic build And not embrace your righteous nail driven in us too fast to die We climb out raw from the immortal pit With mud in our mouths and spitting up teeth and guilt The symphony of razor cables cut through clouds and vocal chords At the fleeting speed of silence To reignite the violent inner biting chorus that sings and belts and yells In a voice that's too fast to die Centuries gone in a second Taken up into the air Beyond the speed of silence Centuries per second I saw the limb coming down from a hole in the world Entering your head replacing your spine Lifting you up by the skin of your openings Guiding you along a turbulent killing wind One life at a time Ending with the one inside of yourself Removing your womb with your hands Wailing away in the air on the strand of Leviticus Opening yourself up Ending our son in a frantic self c section You ravenously bit into his head and fed on him above me Crying dripping and retching in pain My bloodline raining down upon me as you ate our newborn You were choking down his organs begging me to help you What kind of God would make a mother feed upon their own young Reverted back to a sick animal brain Yet with a conscience to know that itself destructive hunger was inflicted by the sky It kept you awake I witnessed you rise With the wicked and innocent Young and the nearly gone Taken up too fast to die Cauterized and lifted Taken up too fast to die Taken into the unknown When the omni limb had brought you back to life inside the ladder I thought this hell could one day end but we can never die of hunger I took you out among the ruin and flayed you for the red goliath Now the sky will not re-open And now I feed on blood and sand Redialate Re-open Release your empyrean leech Then I found the few that read the new leviticus They taught us how to call the liminal in by handing in the mind Hand in your mind Now I stand on empty shore Expelling the red and white that I have for too long inhaled And beg the hand to enter my empty head and column Finally the ulcer opens Cutting the air the cable glides I bow my head and feel the piercing arm tunnelling into my crown Guiding hand enter and take me into your vast and boundless sky Lift me into the kings reflection Let me rise to fast to die Redialate Re-open Release your empyrean leech I land and find no light to greet me Only our cold wet bodies melding The arm took none of us to bliss It filled us all with vile liquid To writhe in a landfill of the lifted I sink into a mound of bloated victims To eternally drowned in undead waste The limb is gone yet we remain Redialate Re-open Release your empyrean leech
