lyrics

Living in an age where love is a dying.
Actors on a stage with an audience crying out to you with hisses and boos.
I saw the ghost of God he was weeping rose pedal tears on the pavement seeping through the cracks on the earthworm's backs.
Living in a world where the TV's preaching.
Everyday, everyday people reaching new found lows.
Who needs a soul?
Bathing in the blood of a disagreement. Everyone's right when a knife's appeasement to make your point of your loveless light.

Everyone looks on again.

Angels crawling hands and knees through broken glass holla.
Pastor throwing congregation fears dressed as dollars on a luminescent stage of an adolescent phase.
Some people grow out of the ashes of the withered.
Rising up fast with each telepathic slither through anothers heart whom they'll fail to start.
Basking in the broken glass of reflections shattered by words said to break instead of build spirit matter.
Who needs care as the serpents fare?
I saw the ghost of God he was weeping rose pedal tears on the pavement seeping through the cracks on the earthworm's backs

Everyone moves on

But I'm leaving this world tonight.
I'm taking that 9mm train to the end of the line.
Cus I'm even with all my deceiving.
I've shed my last layer of snake skin and buried it deep inside my very last lie. My very last lie.
I've buried it, buried it, buried it deep inside.

Started by Troy Bennett in early 2013 as a solo venture in the vein of an acoustic project started with Daniel Bankston (The Great Phonograph Fires, Withering Light) in late 2010.
