The Sinking Lyrics by Crystal Stilts

Alight of Night

2008

I knew we had to leave as soon as the sun rose
Ersatz city seethes beneath the heavens in repose
We need to flee this town to keep ourselves intact
Now if we could only get our bodies to react
It's the sin king, sinking
Sin king, sinking
I can feel the floods in this opulent Sodom
Where all your millions of kings will just sink to the bottom
I can feel the floods in this opulent Sodom
Where all your millions of kings will just sink to the bottom
Sin king, sinking
It's the sin king, sinking
I knew we had to leave as soon as the sun froze
Ersatz cities freeze beneath the heavens in repose
We need to seize the crown to keep ourselves intact
Now if we could only get our minds to react
Sin king, sinking
It's the sin king, sinking
It's the sin king, sinking
Sin king, sinking
