lyrics

In the end, we may find
No reasons why
Adrift in a river of lies
With no way to stem the tide

Anonymous hatred grows
Where information flows
Unwilling flesh exposed
With forbidden file uploads

To and fro
Everybody must know
Our woes exposed to the firmament

You can have it all
Like a forum trade
Diatribes enthrall
And the trolls invade
Everyone must pay

To be held
In the public eye
Where dissonance dwells
And shame never dies
In the Lachrymosa Sky

When grace falls like rain
Upon gardens profane
Faceless and in vain
Dark desires know no names.

And who knows what is real?
This addiction we feel
When all is revealed
No more dreams left to steal.

So it goes
Like a withering rose
Our woes exposed to the firmament

It’s a brand new industry
Electric ties of misery
So many trolls to feed
They consume all they see.

And so we cast our eyes
To a Lachrymosa Sky.
Our failures scrutinized
’Till our appetite subsides.
