The breaking sound

The breaking sound Lyrics

Disaster looms ahead, riveting
Begins to seem so imminent
You'll hear the sound when it ends
Intractable, so anyway
Too broken now to defend
This false body of evidence
You'll hear the sound when it ends,
Intractable

So can this court reconvene
And your soul speak to me

And interminable silence
Beckons, you, beckons you
Lifting this offering's decadent
Enter your name on the line
And surrender yourself
To the powers that be
In the onslaught to come

The shape of things to come
Should have been
Subject of such great relevance
The faith of false, fallen friends
Retractable

So is this all we can be
Send your song into me

Hear the breaking sound
We're not watching you die
