All Structures Are Unstable Lyrics - From Parts Unknown - Every Time I Die

All of a sudden you're dead 

The ground cracks and takes you in 

You've no time to be born again 

There was nothing where something had been 

But every grave that blooms is anchored in miles of roots 

In the seed is the tree 

In the flesh is the feast 

There were worms in the hearts that you hoard 

They devour their way to the soul and the world is weakened from within 

A hole opens up and you're dead 

When I was pregnant I burned a witch alive 

At a hundred and one years old I gave birth to a cloud of smoke 

We are part of a great machine that inefficiently cycles grief 

In the beginning it puts the end and every cause is after effect 

There were worms in the hearts that you hoard 

They devour their way to the soul and the world is weakened from within 

A hole opens up and you're dead 

There's too much poison in our glass to make a toast to our health 

The cave that I built a kingdom on won't carry my weight 

The past is clearer than it's ever been 

Our mistakes made our selves 

Blood rushes out of our phantom limbs 

We take on the water we're floating in but I'll never be clean
