Wither; Wilt Lyrics by Artificial Construct

Lurker

2018

There’s a needle in your lifeboat and you’re trying to keep from going under
The feeling that you might choke: suddenly it’s taking over
Better hope that you will stay afloat because the water is rising

Watch it float away
Don’t believe me?
Can’t you feel it getting old?
We all stay the same
All contingency has stalled
You’re all alone

The hymn of time; the air I breathe
The lurker preys upon my sleep but struggles to hold
He speaks in serpents tongues
A whisper of her soul
The devilish structure latches onto my bones
Pulsing inside of me, rip and birth
Under the waves you are reborn
Gripping earth, demand, improve
Planted roots don’t share your stench
Wither and wilt
This home we have built will outlast us all
The castle will fall
Wither and wilt
This home we have built will outlast us all
The castle will fall

Watch it float away: a burden greater with the weight of every stone
We all stay the same, and every question makes itself unknown

There’s a needle in your lifeboat and finally you're going under
The fever that you let go; the weight that you believed was severed
Now you'll rot and wither in the cold, and the water is rising
