lyrics

you slipped in through
a broken window
shattered glass
crackling underfoot
stagnant pools
and the smell of black mold
and the creaking groan
of rotted wood

peeling paint
and cracked plaster
nests of birds
up in the rafters
the yellowed paper
of a tattered calendar
its days and years
now gone forever

can you feel the wind blow through this
empty conscience?
and can you feel the presence in this
omnipresent absence?

in these vacant homes
and rusted factories
every surface is a canvas
for obscenity
can you hear the empty spaces
sing an elegy
to a long lost life
of easy luxury

entropy will always win
but then what did you expect?
the children's children
of a crumbling nation
will pay its grave no respect

if we fall and no god hears us
do we make a sound?
as the darkness and the silence
descending all around
