Kurt Ballou - Knife in the Safe Room lyrics

Call it escape to stay alive Call it displacement with sunken eyes When all it takes to reignite Is separation of thought and sight Drought flood bathing in blood Sacred arrangement of god as a son Drown any semblance Of power of privilege of state The plight of the sainthood The harmony of gluttony and lust The knife in the safe room Without the business of d**h bringing glory what's left A celebration of blood My arrow is true Another self given wound They all come from above To k** everything that you love Control and everything you know Is in the life you left Is in the life you hold Back then you never see the head Disconnected flesh disconnected soul The unseen unfolds Who the pariah heeds The pariah holds This is the confession Of an obsessive former human The only one who tried to stop This world from consuming And devouring itself
