The Heir Lyrics by Slate (Band)

Deathless

2024

[Verse 1]
Then, in secret, whilst still sleeping
Thoughts as fleeting infestation
[Chorus]
Mind, forgive these forlorn eyes
That saw the hand pass through
And reach for the end of light again
To be reminded it's still there
I can't be the only one who knows
Freedom can be a treacherous friend
[Verse 2]
And what then not held would the hand leave
Cold palms on a tearstained lectern?
[Chorus]
Strangely, sickness lullabies me
I think of all of you
And reach for the end of light again
Until I catch myself smiling
Lying in bed, I quake
The amber breaks
The choice is made, commence
[Instrumental Outro]
