Impulse Machine – The Temptation of St. Anthony Lyrics
Artist: Impulse Machine
Song: The Temptation of St. Anthony
The Expats dragged their path along
The arid road to Babylon
Mornings dawned and twilights passed
Through hills and vales and cataracts
They rode their lowly caravan
Across the barren borderlands
But nothing living’s living on
That crooked road to Babylon
Mother lead them safe to shelter
Father keep them in the cold
Brother give your hand to help them
Lend your light and lead us home
Beneath the tow’r of silence in
The shadow of the seraphim
Men and beasts discussed and trained
Thе careful art of slow decay
In time I noticеd chips and cracks
Like webs across the hourglass
Recall this was a dream of mine
Refraction, symbols undefined
Heed the man who tries to change you
Fear the things he tried to know
Moving according to their own nature
Culling places as they go
Take my body, take my look
Take me as I never could
It’s only fair our iron should rust
All you want is sand and dust
Many tried and none got far
But I know what you really are
Masquerades and alibis
Spreading truths that fracture minds
Father, father everlasting
Shattered in a billion parts
They will try to repossess that
Dangerous weight in both our hearts
Everything’s a simulation
Manufactured to protect
Everyone is out to get you
Lay down, amen
Nothing living lives forever
Follow me into the void
Bending at the faults of pleasure
Cut me when you’re paranoid
Halfway there, again forever
Falling in cascade effect
I can see this unendurable stasis
What’re we ready to forget
