Lyrics

An Ethereal Drain

[Verse 1]

Crossed out of our mindscapes

We're frozen in the time

Stretched around your face

A mask, a clever disguise

Ever so enticing

This corroding chemical synapse

Spawn of a beast

An ethereal drain tatters on the brink

[Pre-Chorus]

Burst into a cloud of spores

Explode into the atmosphere

Weaving our lives with chaotic design

Siphons what's left inside

[Chorus]

Suppress us

Impress us with subtle delusions

And life-like proportions

Bled into one another

[Verse 2]

Plagiarize our dreams

A rift in eternity

All encompassing within it's entirety

[Pre-Chorus]

Burst into a cloud of spores

Explode into the atmosphere

Weaving our lives with chaotic design

Siphons what's left inside

[Chorus]

Suppress us

Impress us with subtle delusions

And life-like proportions

Bled into one another

[Guitar Solo]

Baptized in fire

Leeching the underbelly

Tired traditions retired

A discord within the choir

[Outro]

So sing the praise with your noiseless voices

And pass the blame in the age of distorted reality

Refined relief in chaos unleashed

We find relief in chaos

Unleashed
