[Verse]
Iron ribs of a rusted sky
Cradle the eggs of a velvet lie
The marrow spills where the wires fray
To keep the shivering ghosts at bay
A silk thread chokes the ancient gears
Drowning the pulse of the hollow years
[Verse]
The ceiling drips with a silver oil
Where segments of the spirit coil
A glass-eyed hunter with needle limbs
Sews the edges of the fraying hymns
We are the food in a woven cell
Ringing the chime of a quiet hell
[Chorus]
White geometric knots of fear
Binding the seasons that disappear
Eight-legged thoughts in a frantic crawl
Mapping the cracks on the brittle wall
Tangled in webs of a worm-eaten light
The predator sleeps in the belly of night
[Verse]
The moon is a hole in a moth-chewed cloak
Vanishing under the sulfur smoke
A thousand eyes in the corridor blink
Watching the heavy horizons sink
We dance on a tightrope made of vein
Waiting for thirst to outrun the pain
[Pre-Chorus]
The spindle turns a bitter glow
Spitting out shadows we used to know
The vibration hums in the hollow chest
Tearing the heart from its sticky rest
[Chorus]
White geometric knots of fear
Binding the seasons that disappear
Eight-legged thoughts in a frantic crawl
Mapping the cracks on the brittle wall
Tangled in webs of a worm-eaten light
The predator sleeps in the belly of night
[Outro]
