Aurora Lyrics - Modern Earth - Landscapes

Under the weight of a sleepless night, when all is silent 

and all is dark, with no god to serve as suspect or scapegoat, 

I murmur murderous curses for a world that revels in its capacity to be brutal. 

The cruelest among us eat best, the sharpest teeth pull the most meat from the bone. 

The ghosts of moonlit lanes know my name. I've stalked 

them all before. 

Idle in stolen moments, hiding from the worlds hungry 

claws 

In a blue moons full moon, in the splendor and rush 

Beset by regret, let love gather dust

The savagery of revelry has left me pulled apart 

Calling upon the siren songs to haunt a hardened heart 

All the pretty sutures, bleeding fleeting futures 

through the curse and the mercy of wanderlust stupors 

It all comes crashing down, like the heavens, like the waves 

The muses have only proven that all beauty fades 

Photos 

Upon a bed of roses, upon a bed of nails 

I've lost all of my loved ones to graves and betrayals 

It seems to be, on nights like these, we've made a hell of earth, the very damnation we deserve. 

This is when we sit beside the graves we've dug.
