Every Flatworm Lyrics by Demon Head

Through Holes Shine the Stars

2024

[Verse 1]
We sat in the ruins of a city and a time
I had brought the nightshade, you had gathered bones around
Come join me, love, in a banquet of the gods
And in seven years, your skin will shine like stars

[Chorus]
Why are we here, I wondered
Foul things abandoned to fight a war against dust
Why are we here, I wondered
Foul frail things, homesick for another world

[Verse 2]
The lights had flickered, our fingers on the switches
While hungering for anything that could appeasе our appetites
Bleeding pigs werе screaming and the bushes were still burning
Axes worked relentlessly at grinding down living things

[Verse 3]
That was when you said to the corpses at your feet
Survival can't be all there is, all there is to dream
We all cling to the floor, to be swept away by eternity
This endless slithering of every flatworm to carry on

[Chorus]
Why are we here, I wonder
Foul things abandoned to fight a war against dust
Why are we here, I wonder
Foul frail things, homesick for another world
Foul frail things, homesick for another world

[Bridge]
The grinding of teeth and the pleading, please
Meaningless yearning
Bicker over scraps on the withered grass
Keep the wheels turning

[Verse 3]
Naked hungry apes
Commit the same mistakes
Barking at the dawn
Will we never learn?
Crawling fleshy worms
We must plough on

[Chorus]
Why are we here, I wonder
Foul things abandoned to fight a war against dust
Why are we here, I wonder
Foul frail things, homesick for another world
