The Thirst - Mindless Faith

She’s lashed to the mast

And me to the helm

I’m screaming prayers and curses

She looks underwhelmed

Her mouth is dry with thirst

She’ll drink until she bursts… with heroin

We used to build castles

Into the sky

Towers of beauty

With basements to hide

But now when I look into her face

I see that great city laid to waste… by heroin

I cannot quench her thirst

Tomorrow will just be worse

She whispers regrets

For all my decisions

Wild things turned to house pets

Of empty religion

She was swimming when we met

Now we’re dying in the net… of heroin

I used to be so

Impressed with her lies

Inner demons' manifestos

Calling others to rise

But now when I look into her eyes

All I see is her disguise… for heroin

I cannot quench her thirst

Tomorrow will just be worse

When I look into her face

When I look into her eyes

When I look into her face

All I see is her disguise
