Despair Is a Siren - Subrosa

Let down a rope

I know there is another world

In their geometry

Is a straight line to a living death

The earth is shifting like a plate

My skin doesn't fit anymore

I'm hanging by the noose of their lamp cord

I see the bars of the cage

Like paper dolls we're linked here

Homesick for chains

In their gilded whalebones

We gasp and wilt away

The earth is shifting like a plate

My skin doesn't fit anymore

I'm writhing in the flame of their ghost lights

I see the bars of the cage

Despair is a siren calling through the night

The earth wraps itself in a shroud

I curse my fate I curse my free will

In you I see the glass towers coming down

In you I see something that died in me fester and ignite

I'm not sleeping in glass chambers

Who's the dead one now

My stand lives on in gas chambers

Who's the dead one now
