I Reach Into Your Heart - Pridelands

Empty faces, tasteless drinks

A sermon of sorts, an offering

Dive bar strewn with ancient men

One turned and growled under his breath

«Congratulations, you’re diseased

Your flesh, impermanent and weak

To die is not to be condemned

Your body won’t remember it»

I reach into your heart

To try and start it over

It’s gonna tear you apart

Before I do

Blue neon streams across my eyes

Indigo from the floorboards rise

They call him saint, though I’m not sure why

Anoint thee stains of humankind
