Silent Planet - Anhedonia lyrics

[Intro: Garrett Russell] What lies inside the memories? Somewhere beneath the medicines that plagiarized my sleep They try, they try to keep me num But I'll break the silence now Because there's blood on my lips from biting my tongue [Verse 1: Garrett Russell] Paradise was lost in the chaos As the heavens turned to black Vapors of the valley amassed To coronate the thieves who lit the match As charlatans forge miracles Thе people place thеir faith in false idols [Chorus: Garrett Russell] Lost inside a fever dream Set fire to the forgery I'm blotting out the fiction The past is soaked in kerosene Let it burn I'm blotting out the fiction [Bridge] (Slower than death, we're dying slower than death) [Verse 2: Garrett Russell] Servant to an empire: Courier of the Damned Worship your greed, spread your disease Filling your coffers with duplicity I see the flesh as it hides in your teeth It's the skin that you took when your lips brushed the cheek Of the savior you follow, ostensibly preach To the sheep who will follow you into antipathy [Bridge: Mitch Stark] Lost inside a fever dream A carousel of wilting roses sing "You now depart from me And find an empty field to hang your head" [Chorus: Garrett Russell] Lost inside a fever dream Set fire to the forgery I'm blotting out the fiction The past is soaked in kerosene Let it burn I'm blotting out the fiction
