Hiraeth Lyrics by The Beginning and the End

OUROBOROS

2019

We lost dearly
Every time
I fought myself home

Sever the phantom limb that keeps you anchored
Sever the phantom limb that keeps your view colonic

Caught by barbed thought
Taught by barbed tongue

Hung out to die

Didn't you know, dear
That all that you hold dear
Is a story penned without a single word for you?
Oh dear

…Dig and you dig and you bury all you need
…dig and you dig and you bury all you need
…and you dig and you dig and you

You'd lay down in traffic
To mourn the passing
Of everything you never had
And never will

You'll spend all of your days
To worship an existence
That never existed
And never will

You’ll ignite all the bridges
On your journey back
To what you never had

And maybe they get
What you don't
Cos they call it by a different name

You truly fear
15 billion shining eyes
Showing you that you’re the other

You are the other
