Sarcophagus

LyricS

There was a change in the atmosphere
I could feel it all around me
A little strange, like I’d been here
Another time or in a bad dream
There was a flame on the mountainside
The wind was blowing from the ocean

You live and die, the provident eye
Will see you all of the way
But you don’t care, know if or where
Your sarcophagus lays

Was it time for reexamining
Or was it time for celebration
The yellow sun can shine incessantly
Onto intense magnification

You live and die, the provident eye
Will see you all of the way
But you don’t care, know if or where
Your sarcophagus lays
You live and die, the provident eye
Will see you all of the way
But you don’t care, know if or where
Your sarcophagus lays

The gyre is widening
Or is it orbiting around me
It’s hard to tell cause I’m just standing here
At least I was before they found me
There was a change in the atmosphere
I could feel it all around me
A little strange, like I’d been here
Another time or in a bad dream

You live and die, the provident eye
Will see you all of the way
But you don’t care, know if or where
Your sarcophagus lays
You live and die, the provident eye
Will see you all of the way
But you don’t care, know if or where
Your sarcophagus lays
