Gates Of Horn And Ivory Lyrics - Eye Of Providence - The Agonist

Craving possession 

Material obsession 

You function solitarily 

On lower brain transmission 

You want it, you need it 

You're never gonna get it 

Cause really what you're chasing 

Is a lie to begin with 

Paralyze 

Manufacture aspiration 

Design the ideal outcome 

Would you like to hear your story? 

All this time you've played the part 

A part that was chosen just for you 

Bite down on the painless 

Enter the gates of Horn and Ivory 

With fire at my back 

I will tame the waters 

I will learn to swim 

Fear is not my master. [x2] 

How do I Breathe? 

You will choke 

How do I walk? 

You will fall 

Instinct to the extinct 

Paralysis by analysis 

Trapped in delusions 

Ghosts are out to haunt you 

The world you've grown to love 

Is slowly crumbling 

You need it, you want it 

You're never gonna get it 

Cause really what you're after 

Is a fictional desire 

With fire at my back 

I will tame the waters 

I will learn to swim 

Fear is not my master [x2] 

Enter the gates of Horn and Ivory
