Siren

Casting aside my shelter

Pursuing her echoes failing

The current will rage and sigh now

And hide her immortal wailing

Drink from the sacred spring

In ancient meadows

For you the heavens sing

So follow me

Believe in another ending

This hunger at last awaken

The mist of a barren shore

Sighs of the forsaken

Flood—take me

Silence—break me

Weakened fools, we pick their bones

Followed lust, their sins atoned

Sealed within this bitter fate

Now for you it’s far too late

Fall into the curse herd

A feast for us, the grounded birds

The masters vile, yet so absurd

This feast for us under the sun

Bound to the earth, plucked from the sky

Devour my flesh without knowing why

Sing for me now and I’ll leave my mark

A stain upon your brow so pale, now so dark

Hurt, fear, and silence—salt in your lungs

Men scream for help—we pluck out their tongues

You cannot conquer, I will not leave you

Prayers for your soul—words they deceive you

Desolate these plains of madness

March into the void

The bones of others fading

The lives you destroyed

Flood

Silence

Take me

Break me
