Autonomous Serpent Lyrics


The tireless moon begat her tears

In part, to weep in loss before the setting sun

To rise through fog and warm the barren minds below

To writhe in blind ecstasy of insight’s tomb

To draw smoke from splintered bones

And lap the skulls of naked dichromatic hostility

Ideological priapism waves the lack of substance

Strokes the nerves of waning ambiguity

Erect before the hollow tower looming over all

Rise

Rise

Rise

And glimpse through all the lords of no intent

A better try of human to drift away in aspect

Horrors away to my worship that went besieged

Rise

Rise

Rise

The moon reflecting back with inner filter

Primed to see the worlds that you have made

There suppose simply worshiping value, all in the end

Rise

Rise

Rise

You, in the stardust, with burning breath

And we, imperfect, offer life obscured sharing, be gods

Isolated, human, ever human, in mocking paradox

Rise

Rise

Rise

You exist
