Colossus

From Distant Populations2021

Written by Alan Cage, Sergio Vega (Bassist),

Lyrics

Colossus

You're physical

Fiends for bones to break

Needs for action

Violence to fate

Means nothing to you

Who takes the fall

'Cause there's no consequence

It's immaterial, it's immaterial

A new life

We're never meant to feel completed

As long as we're here

It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter what for

I'm still on your side

We're so affectionate

Seen on the surface

Drawn to the depths of it

Means nothing to you

Who takes the fall

In this place of tension

Always so rational

It's immaterial

A new life

We're never meant to feel completed

As long as we're here

It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter what for

We're never meant to feel completed
