Daylight Slaving Lyrics - From Autumn To Ashes

Rising and spiraling then vanish in the wind 

I can't tell where the land ends and the sky begins 

Are you acquainted with the threat of being killed? 

Are you conversing with pigeons on the windowsill? 

And every battle has been fought 

And everything I think was thought 

Down we, down we've descended 

Every day keeps getting shorter 

As my sleeves start getting longer 

And the sidewalks overflow 

Patronize pedestrians 

With no sense of direction 

Are you lost and can't ask a question 

Rising and spiraling then vanish in the wind 

I can't tell where the land ends and the sky begins 

This city truly is assaulting my senses 

Unkempt, unruly devour defenseless occupant 

If poverty builds up character and spoils breed arrogance 

I'd rather consort with the low and the decadent 

Every battle has been fought 

And everything I think was thought 

Down we, down we've descended 

Every day keeps getting shorter 

As my sleeves start getting longer 

And the sidewalks overflow 

Patronize pedestrians 

With no sense of direction 

Are you lost and can't ask a question 

You'd better have the strength 

Of the wandering aimless 

With an audience 

Of the most prestigious 

Do you have to strain 

To love the one you came with? 

I hope you have the strength 

We're in the belly of war 

Every battle has been fought 

Everything I think was thought 

Down we, down we've descended 

Every day keeps getting shorter 

As my sleeves start getting longer 

And the sidewalks overflow 

([Incomprehensible]) 

Patronize pedestrians 

With no sense of direction 

Are you lost and can't ask a question
