Ark of the Covenant

Seeking the evil part of me
That pulls me out of humanity
The more I look, the more I find
Turn a corner in a cave and discover a gold mine
And if I go digging I’ll never stop
Fossilised nightmares in every spot
Ancient pottery filled with fault
And the negative space that held my soul
It could be worse than this
It’s hard to imagine it
There’s a ghost at my shoulder tapping
And I don’t know what’s going to happen if I
Turn to face it
The ark of the covenant is a kid on my doorstep knocking
And I don’t know what’s going to happen
I don't know what's going to happen
Bold to imply I didn't need to be
Troubleshooting my assembly
And the more I learn, the more I see
I was weary, I was pointless
Paddling upstream
And if I go digging I’ll never stop
Sprained, cramped muscles that are tied in knots
Choked up arteries where blood runs cold
And the negative space that held my soul
It could be worse than this
It’s hard to imagine it
There’s a ghost at my shoulder tapping
And I don’t know what’s going to happen if I
Turn to face it
The ark of the covenant is a kid on my doorstep knocking
And I don’t know what’s going to happen
Run and hide
Till the daybreak, turn to the side
And it looks so tame in the light
In the light
In the light
Run and hide
Till the daybreak, turn to the side
And it looks so tame in the light
In the light
In the light
In the light
If I turn to face it
I don’t know what’s gonna happen
