Obelisk Lyrics by Absorb

2023

These two sides
Whose choices bind
The altar divides

Now step down, step down

These two sides
A duality of life
The sewers rise
The moon blinds
It echoes inside

Wading through the trials of the rat race
Trampled down until it suffocates
Born and buried by the black and white ticker tape
In the hopes of a fateful escape
Escape

Now step down

Wading through the trials of the rat race
Trampled down until it suffocatеs
Born and buried by the black and white tickеr tape
Tossing tokens toward a faithful embrace
Ground into dust til the end
Squeeze every drop til the end

Now step down, step down

You must believe you are the only one
You are the only one

Kneel down, bow and sacrifice. Pay a greater price
Step down — fill your empty hands with time's fleeting sands
Meditate and capture your fate
Proliferate so you can escape
So you can escape

We'll lose our minds out in space
Unless we can escape

Pushing and pulling, ending up in the same position
Serving tradition becoming an addiction
Pushing and pulling, ending up in the same position
Serving tradition becoming an addiction

We don't deserve this planet
We don't deserve this planet
We don't deserve this planet
We don't deserve this planet

Wading through the trials of the rat race
Trampled down until it suffocates
Born and buried by the black and white ticker tape
And in essence, it's a fractured disgrace
Ground turns to dust in the end
Squeeze every drop til the end
