Erised

Erised - Periphery

There's a vessel and it's sinking at sea

An apparition that's beckoning me

As the cold dark night brings on the sweat

I slowly drift away

Stuck down in the bottom of your cylindrical state of mind

What are we running from

There's a distant sound of a melody

Release me from this place

All like to live with sedative under the skin

Bury it carry the cure

Just let emotion set devotion within your heart to collect the death we sow

Step out from the moonlight like it's a game we play

The checkerboard is tainted drops of red will lead the way

Black are the lies gold are the tongues of the glorified

Command her seas of the blood in me

Stuck down in the bottom of your cylindrical state of mind

What are we running from

There's a distant sound of a melody

Release me from this place

All like to live with sedative under the skin

Bury it carry the cure

Just let emotion set devotion within your heart to collect the death we sow

All like to live with sedative

All like to live with sedative under the skin

Just let emotion set devotion within your heart to collect the death we sow

Collecting sanity simply ready for the life that waits surely

There's a distant sound of a melody and I won't leave this place
