A Graveside Story Lyrics

For too long we've been probing
A bottomless cave
Passing on the suffering
Of filling up graves

From the clay cast again
On a planet of apes
What are we but contrast
Blown into shape

Fertile offspring of shame
Eternal shapeshifter
Neither really the same
Nor another

Won't you bless me with thy spear
Hallow my ignorance
Let me be the engineer
Of transience
