lyrics

Black glass and background,
The city avoids me.
A void, this world won't see me.

Black glass and tarnish.
The sound of creation,
They built right through me.

Absent the skylight,
Follow the lighthouse,
The voyager's landlocked,
Adrift in the tarmac,
Body devoid of a singular shape.

The city is shining
The city is shining
The city is shining into itself,
Like an inverted sun.
A void,
No one wonders where you
Are from.
The heaped up streets
chocked by my body's
unwanted heat.
The city avoids me,
Or at least it tries.
Hiding itself in the dream
Of the sky.

Black glass and shadow
The city absorbs me
Like the wet of the rain.

Black glass and crisis
A void, the needle encapsuled
The sphere.

Absent the north star,
Follow the traffic.
The voyager's landlocked,
Discreet in congestion
Devoid of a singular name.

The city is changing
The city is changing
The city is changing at speeds too
Fast to see.
It's running right through me
Like I've become empty.
The machines for displacing
Re-space me.
My face a farce of nostalgia.
The city destroys me,
Or at least it tries,
Building new cities
Out of reach in the sky...

Black glass and background,
The city avoids me.
A void, this world won't see me.

Black glass and tarnish,
The sound of destruction.
They built right through me.

A void...
