Shell Lyrics


Standing at the bow

Under pristine night skies

Boat makes for the shore

Beyond the tears and the cries

Wet grass underfoot

The ice kiss between bare toes

Cold, uneathly calm

Serenity only those in passing know

'neath the mountain, 'neath the forest and the streams

In the deep, molten currents gag my screams

I am whole, though broken body one will find

I will not be heard

Audience denied to my kind

Seek your shelter

Violence shocks the long surviving halls

Bail the sickness

From the bilge of your worthless core

Entombed, imprisoned

As I bring the catacomb down on you

Meet me in battle

To eat your shell I've suffered aeons true

Eat, taste, lust, loathe, seek, stalk,

Beg, hound, chase, reap,

Act, push, break
