The Other Lyrics by Elision

2020

We’re falling apart

A painting of inspiration, painted with the pain of subjugation
Now we struggle to respire, our world burns as they stoke the fires

Waging peace
Praying for pain
The skies on fire
This simply can’t sustain

In a world ablaze, we set our scene
Justifying injustice and waging peace
A sad state of affairs, this narrative
Is there no alternative?

Nothing less than a metabolic rift
Has opened wide, between you and I Us and them, the other and his brother

The few, hoard infinite opulence, ever-expansive
The many fight for scraps, held like captives

We are canaries in a coal mine, biding our time and we’re serving as nothing but a warning sign

It never ebbed, it never flowed
Just an ode to the end of hope
The medium became the message
We succumbed to a new persuasion
The greatest transformation
Moral mutation

“Hell has no mirrors”
So is it any wonder
We never see ourselves

This evil so banal, finds its place within the gloaming
We went to conflict with ourselves, in a state of fear and loathing Disjointed moments in time follow one another
Sights, sounds and thoughts don’t go together

Always was, always will be
No one is illegal on stolen land
No one is an outlaw for defending their home
We’ll reap what we sow

It never ebbed, it never flowed
Just an ode, to the end of hope
We are but dealers of woe
We burnt their fragile homes
Reduced their luminous love of life to monochrome
So otherized, that we’re numb, to their plight

On the height of despair, in the depths of depravity
We adorn the masks and relinquish our vanity
What we’re left with only further darkens
We search and search for a light, that doesn’t exist
You’ll never find it by digging deeper into the abyss

“I have no mouth, and I must scream”
They stole my voice, tortured me
