Dead-Eyed God Lyrics by J. Robbins

Basilisk

2021

Greed and grievance, reptile brain
Grafted to a rotting frame
A swizz by any other name
Doctrine of a dead-eyed god
Reward and punish, pride and shame
Winners learn to work the game
Losers born to take the blame
For the judgement of a dead-eyed god
Whose blessing is a hole that hides you
Whose mercy blinds you
Alabaster idyll, violence and fear confine you
So white
And cold
To the mold
Where they made you
In the image of a dead-eyed god
Boy so proud to make the most
Of your abusive father's ghost
Who dreams of knife fights, sacrifice
To feed a dead-eyed god
Who populates ex nihilo
This nihilistic rodeo
With wolves and sheep, the weak and bold
Bled white for your dead-eyed god
Whose blessing is a hole that hides you
Whose mercy blinds you
Alabaster idyll, violence and fear confine you
So white
And cold
To the mold
Where they made you
In the image of a dead-eyed god
