At a Distance - I. Let the Rising Tide Take You Lyrics

Part I - Let the rising tide take you:
The synthesis of our failures
Is a collective without purpose
A life conformed to outside forces
Beyond control
And beyond grasp

There's a stench in the air
A feeling of oncoming death
A suffocation
Don't breath the air
Don't drink the water
Let the rising tide take you

Keep your guns
Keep your flags
Keep your borders and meaningless rhetoric
I rather drown than take part in this

It's a story without end
A melody sweet with consonance
In a movement shrouded in dissonance
In a million years
It'll still echo in the atoms of the world
Vibrating and oscillating for none

Nothing perishes but the now
As you feel the current rushing in
Passing through your fingers
Take hold of your memory and don't forget to exhale

Exhale

Let the rising take you
Deeper and deeper

Exhale
Death

Keep your guns
Keep your flags
Keep your borders and meaningless rhetoric
Nothing perishes but the now

Exhale
Death

Exhale

World
Death

Suffocation

World
Death

Annihilation

Exhale
