Flesh as Armour Lyrics

Time cuts through the narrative of flesh
Secrets save us from dissolving
The wandering moon with her borrowed light
Burdened by the unconquerable weight inherited

Once I collapsed I now see clearly
Voices cutting across my sleep
They spill fourth our remaining doubts
Fragments too small to retain my Self

As I step in your shadow
You sing forth a chant for wings
And claim the divine mastery of flesh

Solo: Power

Watch the mystics, regard the martyrs
We know the world as submissive and devouring
The last becomes the first once again
I am blind to all other light
What is it that keeps us from drowning?
How will I see my life until I have left it behind?

Machines of motion are bred by bastards
Let us be gentle when questioning ourselves
Divide your flesh and mine

Solo: Vella

Our flesh as armour
Now
Find a way
