Lyrics

Emergence

Well you were laid inverse
Living on a promised word
Well I am the rose you relinquished
Again
You and I are down head first
In another world I heard
Well I have a feeling we're close
To the end

So
Come on, come on
Out from underneath who you were
Come on, come on, now
You know that it's time to emerge

Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me
Arms around me, yeah
Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me
Arms around me, yeah
Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me
Arms around me, yeah
Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me
Arms around me

Are you carbide on my nano
Red glass on my lightbulb
Dark light on my cold chest
Sapphire in my white gold
Burst out of my chest and
Hide out in the vents
My blood beats so alive
Might bite right through your lungs
It's midnight in my mind's eye
Drowning out the daylight
Godspeed to my enemies
Who been asking for that callsign
You know the behavior
Canines of the savior
Glory to the legion
Trauma for the neighbors

Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me
Arms around me, yeah
Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me
Arms around me, yeah
Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me
Arms around me, yeah
Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me
Arms around me, yeah

I've got solar flares for your death guns
Space dust for your fuel rods
Dark days for your solstice
Dancing through the depths of
Hellfire from the winds that
Started from within
My blood beats so alive
Might tear right right through my skin, so
Tell me what you meant by
Living past your half-life
In lockstep with the universe
And you're well past the afterlife
You know that I'm
Sanctified by what's below
No matter what you do
No matter where you go

You might be the one
To take away the pain
And let my mind
Go quiet
And nothing else is quite
The same as how I feel
When I'm at
Your side

Come on, come on
Out from underneath who you were
Come on, come on now
You know that it's time to emerge

Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me
Arms around me

You might be the one
To take away the pain
And let my mind
Go quiet
And nothing else is quite
The same as how I feel
When I'm at
Your side
