Perish Lyrics by Simulant

Dark Orbit

2022

I've got a heart full of pale chords
Whilst you have empty threats
At the bottom of a glass
All I see is darkness
And in between
A feeling I can’t forget
A coldness that's creeping in

Why should we live in and out of consciousness?
Where black and white is red and green
I'd rather know if you’re smiling through your crooked teeth
Than throw me in the deep end
Expecting me to swim

Perish
At the hands of another
Are you a heretic, a saint or a martyr?

Even though these currents pull us under
I know we'll swim to the surface once again
Keep fighting the good fight until you're satisfied
Underneath a dying sun, look after number one

All I see is death and in between paradise or pain
I'd rather know if I'm marching towards a damaged phase
Nothing but stuck into place
A fucking early grave

My cage, my cell
My personal hell

Even though these currents pull me under
I know we'll swim to the surface once again
Keep fighting the good fight until you're satisfied
Underneath the dying sun, look after number one

My screws are shaking loose
In love with my own depression
I've seen the seven faces of hell
It’s the only thing that’s consistent
Push the button and reset
We're finally deserving what we get
Sew open wounds up to cut the circulation

Perish
At the hands of another
Are you a heretic, a saint or a martyr?
