The Vaporous Incandescent Lyrics by Hatchling

The Sleep Scriptures

2015

Eventide finds me solely fixated on that case of stairs
My precious paramour, like ever-constant clockwork
Is to make her presence known
Banister of mahogany, guideth down thine milky hand
The vaporous incandescent then spake unto me that ghastly thing
"Your breathing, alone, renders our incompatibility"
Tonight the world will open its mouth and received me
Light your candles, arc the neck, recite the scriptures of sleep
Of this life, I've had well enough, I pass my torch of grief
Forward toward eternal bliss, into the afterlife for me
With gleamy, salty eyes
Teeth in the lip, I'm mesmerized
She gently nods and I henceforth cease to be
In my oaken case, still and silent
I am benumbed and deadened
How can this be? What have I done?
Bound to eternally dwell on us
And in each collected thought
I cast a specter up above
There may be hope for us yet
Nervously climbing the stairs
Ghosting vicariously
There she stands
We meet again
Tonight the world will open its mouth and receive me
Light your candles, arc the neck, recite the scriptures of sleep
Of this life, I've had well enough, I pass my torch of grief
Forward toward eternal bliss, into the afterlife for me
For us
I sacrifice myself
Underneath a static sky
I've never felt much more alive
Pendulous lunar fixture, that familiar silver
With calloused, sickly hands
I unwind, trace your spine and forget everything
Forget everything
