lyrics

behind the juniper and rose
tangled in trumpet vines and night-shade
there is a yellow-jacket nest
it's humming to my troubled sleeplessness

just take me a little bit further down
to the garden of hypnotic tides, the ceremony ground
possessed, we run the labyrinth 'round
by the cycles of the skies & their echoes underground

mysterious Earth lain to waste
ten billion human souls marching through the flames
I think the death-squad's finished at the neighbor's place
because the camera crew is here to give it all another face

for how long can you afford to live?
and how much rage do you think your heart can contain
before it bursts into flames?
in the middle of your chest and then it boils your brains
